This is the view of the Marine Room from outside.
The history of the Marine Room in La Jolla California- It is owned by the Kellogg family. They have been associated with the restaurant since it was transformed into a dining establishment in 1941.
It was originally built as the Spindrift Inn in 1916. It has a rich history, including the installation of bulletproof windows after strong waves smashed the original ones, and it has undergone significant renovations to withstand flooding and storm damage over the years.
It specializes in fine American cuisine and seasonal dishes, including a renowned lobster bisque and featuring fresh, seasonal seafood and signature dishes.
It is a bit pricey but you are paying for the fine dining and the experience.
Iโm amazed it has survived literally on the Pacific Coast all these years.
Had you ever heard of the Marine Room before this? Donโt you find old places like this (85 years old) fascinating? I
This is the Marine Room in La Jolla, California.
Itโs a renowned oceanfront restaurant with breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean that has been open since 1941. ๐คฏ
Guests can enjoy dining with dramatic views of crashing waves, especially during high tide. ๐ณ
I donโt think I could feel at ease chowing down at dinner with those waves hitting the glass like that. Iโd be waiting for Jaws to come crashing through. ๐ฏ๐
Have you ever experienced anything like this? Do you think it would be a soothing ambiance while eating dinner or would your anxiety be through the roof?
