MARKET is a 5 star restaurant in every way. Our server was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The room was beautiful, and quiet enough for easy conversation. The four of us brought in wine which paired wonderfully with the gourmet cuisine. Everyone loved their meals. I had the apple smoked king salmon to start, and the short ribs as my entree. The plating was stunning, and the tastes were carefully chosen, woven together and prepared perfectly. Desserts were also delicious! We look forward to returning to MARKET on our next trip to southern California!

The food here is as good as it gets. Carl is absolutely brilliant in his combinations of flavors. The dishes have amazing complexity, with no ingredient getting in the way of another.
The portion sizes are very generous.
Chelsea our waitress was on top of all our needs, in a perfect way. Everyone was professional. The greeters, bus people and the kitchen staff.
It was truly wonderful from beginning to end.
We live 160 miles from here. Otherwise we would eat here at least once a week.
I don’t understand Michlin not giving them multiple stars.

We truly enjoyed our meal at Market Restaurant and Bar. The staff was friendly and the food was wonderful. The corn soup was our favorite with the other dishes being full of flavor. We will definitely be coming again!

This place nailed every aspect of what a great restaurant should be. If you are deciding between a few places, and this one is on the list, forget the others and come here.
I was impressed that this place pays attention to the details, the things that matter. Those are the things I look for in a great restaurant, and this place has it. They get it. I know that’s vague, but trust me. Experience it for yourself. 👏🫡

Amazing food, generous portions and very helpful staff.
We sat down for the 3 course menu and were greeted by our server Ted, who was very helpful navigating my wife's dietary restrictions, which are usually an issue. The staff were attentive and the food was amazing.
In my experience, a lot of places like this you get one really good course and the rest of the meal is just okay, but everything we tried and tasted here was top notch.
The only very minor complaint I had was the red meats were salted just a bit too much for my taste but they were still amazing.
I'd definitely come back to eat here on our next trip to San Diego.
