Heart of L’Auberge

Adelaide is the signature restaurant at L’Auberge Del Mar, serving locally sourced cuisine with dramatic views over the Pacific. Travel + Leisure has called the experience a “Perfect Southern California Getaway.” The resort keeps three more venues for lighter moments: the Pool Bar for poolside plates, the Living Room Bar for cocktails and small plates, and Lyric Coffee for mornings. All of it is steps from the sand in the heart of Del Mar Village.

Adelaide is the ocean-view restaurant inside L’Auberge Del Mar, the AAA Four Diamond resort in the center of Del Mar Village. Ranch & Coast Magazine named it San Diego’s Best Restaurant in 2022, and Sunset Magazine featured it in its 2022 Travel Awards for beachside dining. The menu is built with local farmers, fishermen and foragers, and the room looks straight out over the Pacific. It serves breakfast, lunch, weekend brunch and dinner, and reservations are open to everyone, not only hotel guests, through OpenTable or by calling 858-793-6467.

Breakfast puts a coastal twist on the classics, with the L’Auberge crab Benedict and CC’s Chilaquiles. Lunch brings gourmet salads, fish tacos and a popular raw bar, and dinner centers on fresh seafood, seasonal oysters and ingredient-driven entrees sourced from local farmers, fishermen and foragers. The wine list runs from Champagne to California and French benchmarks, and the signature cocktails nod to the hotel’s Hollywood past, with drinks named for Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz, Bing Crosby and Jimmy Durante.
