Duke’s sits right on the bluff above La Jolla Cove, pairing Hawaiian-influenced seafood with one of the best sunset views on this list. It has a slightly more relaxed, resort-casual feel than some of the area’s other fine-dining spots, making it approachable for families while still feeling like a proper night out. Time your reservation for early evening if watching the sunset over the cove is part of the plan — it’s genuinely one of the better sunset dinner spots in San Diego. Book ahead, especially for outdoor terrace seating during summer months.
