Restaurants near The Westin San Diego

Very nice restaurant delicious food, and great servers.

Service from Karissa was fantastic she was knowledgeable and helpful but not pushy. We loved her friendly and funny banter. Food was incredible, my friend took the left over dinner back to the hotel to have for breakfast!! Lovely restaurant, thanks.

We were only in San Diego for 24 hours, and Animae was the perfect foodie destination for our short trip. Chef Tara’s menu masterfully stays true to Filipino flavors while elevating them in a way that feels both nostalgic and exciting. Every dish was beautifully executed, and the balance of flavors was impeccable. Our server, Chenise, made the experience even more memorable. She was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable, guiding us through the menu with thoughtful recommendations. She kept the pacing and coursing of our meal just right, ensuring we could fully enjoy each dish without feeling rushed. The cocktails were another highlight - both inventive and perfectly balanced. Each drink complemented the food beautifully, and we could absolutely see ourselves coming back just to sit at the bar and work our way through the cocktail menu. From start to finish, Animae delivered on every level—food, service, and ambiance. If you’re looking for a truly special dining experience in San Diego, this is it. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town!

Our food and drinks were delicious. The view is stunning and our server, Seth, was amazing!

This is a great place to eat before going to the theatre. Food is carefully prepared, delicious and priced right. We are always pleased.
