LIONFISH WINNER IN THE SAN DIEGO MAGAZINE AWARDS

Every year, San Diego Magazine takes the time to explore the best restaurants in the city and to create a comprehensive guide for area diners who want to enjoy the best of the best that the city has to offer. San Diego has long been known for its blossoming restaurant scene, and being honored in the magazine’s awards is something that every establishment throughout the region strives for.

This year, Lionfish came up big in the San Diego Magazine award’s winner’s list and won several awards. The team here at Lionfish is more than honored to be placed on this prestigious list of top restaurants in the city and excited to share our recognitions with our dedicated patrons who have been supporting our establishment since we first opened our doors.

BEST OF THE BEST (FANCY) RUNNER UP

In this category some of the best “fancy” and high-end restaurants in the city were judged based on their food, atmosphere and overall dining experience. Lionfish was named the Runner Up in this category—a huge honor!

BEST HAPPY HOUR (READER’S PICK)

If you haven’t experienced Lionfish’s happy hour yet, then there is no better time to try than now. We won the Reader’s Pick for best happy hour in the city, and for good reason. Every weekday we have happy hour from 5-7 PM. Here you can enjoy drink specials on wine, craft cocktails and draft beers. We also have hot and cold plate specials as well as $1 oysters.

BEST HOTEL RESTAURANT (READER’S PICK)

In a city like San Diego, the hotel restaurant niche is highly competitive. This is why we are so excited to have won Reader’s Pick for best hotel restaurant in San Diego. We are located in the stunning Pendry Hotel located in the infamous Gaslamp District of San Diego.

BEST DESIGN (RUNNER UP)

Here at Lionfish, we pride ourselves on our delicious coastal cuisine and on our drink menu, but we know that this is not all that goes into a customer’s dining experience. This is why we were so excited to win Runner Up for the Best Design category. This is a big prize and shows that all of the work we put in to create the perfect atmosphere for our customers has really paid off.

We know that hearing about our awards is one thing, but we would rather show you why so many people seem to love Lionfish. Why not come down to our San Diego restaurant and enjoy our modern coastal cuisine for yourself and take in the best that Lionfish has to offer by trying our robust menu and a few of our delectable cocktails right here in our location at the stunning Pendry Hotel.
