If the historic “Hotel Del” is the jewel of Coronado Island, then snagging a seat on Serẽa’s sprawling patio is like nestling into said jewel box. Thanks to its stunning views of the hotel's landscaped grounds and the ocean beyond, this is one of the prettiest perches in all of California. Just be sure to snag a reservation, because you’ll have competition from plenty of wedding parties and conference-goers.Deep-pocketed pescatarians will be delighted by the freshness and sustainability of the fish on offer—from inviting platters of raw oysters and cracked Maine lobster to flash-fried red snapper from Baja, offered by the pound for sharing. And even after the sun finally fades on the million-dollar view, the outdoor fireplace sets an exquisite mood.
