  • Great for scenic views
  • Fancy
Mister A's is the penthouse, fine-dining destination of San Diego, and has been for over 50 years. Located just a few minutes from downtown, you will take the elevator to the top floor and look back out over jetliners sweeping past at eye level, the San Diego skyline, bay and Pacific, while enjoying Modern American cuisine, hand-crafted cocktails, and one of Wine Spectator's top-rated wine lists in the country. The culinary staff hand-selects local farm produce and the highest quality ingredients in every category to offer you selections that are made from scratch in house for brunch, lunch, dinner.. or simply the finest rooftop drinks and appetizers in town.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Stephane Voitzwinkler

From the OpenTable editors: This plush penthouse escape—open since 1965—reached new heights after a dramatic redesign. Thanks to a freshly added lounge, diners have better access to its skyline views. The French-American restaurant highlights local produce in throwback dishes like grilled blue prawns with charred shishitos and pan-roasted Alaskan halibut with corn.

    Incredible evening at Mister A’s. The Chablis was crisp, the duck was rich and tender, and the pommes aligot were silky perfection. Flawless service, breathtaking views, and a surprise chocolate fondant paired with a glass of Quinta port made it all unforgettable.

    Our server Ben was just amazing! He took well care of us and made our first experience so memorable. We ordered drinks the Cheshire Cat and the Burnt Orange Old Fashioned. Had a traditional Caesar Salad and bread & butter for appetizers. Entrees we got recommended the New York Strip with Mashed Potatoes and the George’s Bank Scallops with a side of truffle fries. For dessert we also got recommended the Dubai Chocolate Baked Alaska which we believe was our favorite part of our dinner! Such a great place for date night or celebrating a special occasion.
