Top of the Market - San Diego

Perched above the main dining room at The Fish Market on the downtown waterfront, this seafood room looks out toward Coronado and Point Loma from a heated, glass-enclosed deck. The kitchen adds a few luxury items -- abalone among them -- to a menu built on hyper-seasonal produce and artisan pasta from local vendors, alongside raw bar standards like Kumamoto oysters and a chilled seafood platter. Business casual is required, and tables near the exhibition kitchen run loud.
