We are so honored to make an appearance (twice!) in this year’s Best Restaurants issue. The repeat recognition (4 years!) does not go unappreciated nor taken for granted. We are still humbled, surprised, and grateful with each year that we are even here. This doesn’t mean we’ve arrived, nor does it mean it’s time to rest. For us it translates to motivation: to keep at it, to push forward and continue to do work. But at best it means that we are still part of the San Diego dining landscape, still representing, relevant, and resonating with you here in our beloved hometown. So thank you for showing up and supporting us on this wild, ever changing ride. THANK YOU to everyone who gave us your vote, to @sandiegomag , and @heytroyjohnson , for enjoying our food and culture as much as we do. And congrats to all the winners! There are many well deserving spots that didn’t make this list, so remember to support all the places you love. ❤️Love, S&B
