Not sure about the negative service comments, our service was spot on. My wife and I selected the "Mercy of the Chef", and let me tell you, it was phenomenal!
My wife and I don't typically go off the beaten path when it comes to cuisine, but this time we decided to risk it. We knew the "mercy" was going to be selections off the menu, so we pretty much knew what our selections might be. With the exception of one dish (which coincidentally would have been my entree selection), my wife and I would have never ordered the selections served. And believe me, the food was absolutely delicious!
Every course was brought out at regular intervals... Possibly a little slow for some peoples taste, but as we were celebrating a night away from our kids, dining on great food at our own leisure was enjoyable. From start to finish, we were there for about 2 1/2 hours. Having enjoyed other prix fix dinner/wine pairings, and staying at the Grand Colonial, the pacing was spot on. Having enjoyed cocktails earlier in the evening, we enjoyed some signature cocktails rather than the optional wine pairing.
If you're adventurous, the "mercy of the chef" is well worth the money!
I've got a new "best breakfast ever" spot. The French toast with fruit, pistachios and yogurt was amazing. My wife loved her pastrami omelette too. The service was spot on and the location is convenient to downtown La Jolla for shopping or walking down to the sea walk.
By far the best dining experience we've ever had. I highly recommend if you have the time, do the 'Mercy of the chef' with wine pairings.
