My party and I enjoyed a meal at Addison shortly after they received their third Michelin star.

Epic on all fronts. Incredible ambiance, service, and of course food. The incredible flavors, presentation and attention to detail sets Addison a world apart. I was privileged enough to have a 9 course chefs tasting inclusive of caviar, wagyu, truffle and a variety of delicacies from above and below the sea. The A5 Wagyu was absolutely out of this world. Truly a once in a lifetime meal.

Addison is San Diego’s only 3 Star Michelin Restaurant, located at the Fairmont Grand Hotel in Del Mar. Showcasing “California Gastronomy”, Chef William Bradley highlights local ingredients which are masterfully cooked. Staff is efficient and professional (although the atmosphere can be a bit intimidating). Definitely a special place worth a visit. Would budget approximately $1,000 per couple for an evening meal and an additional $350 per person if opting for any enhancements (wagyu/caviar/truffle). Given the demand for this restaurant, would recommend writing directly for a table and booking a month in advance.

San Diego’s 3 Michelin star restaurant and it unabashedly let’s you know that from the get go. It was a very unique experience with few negatives and many positives. The staff are for the most part very friendly when they are interacting but there seems to be a “robotic” phase for many of them where it’s “serious business”. Not bad but my preference was interaction with the staff as they all have insightful perspectives on their restaurant, area of expertise, and even the local restaurant scene. We ordered the 9 course tasting menu and the food was unmistakably delicious. Very interesting and elevated takes on familiar flavors. The sourdough was the best I’ve ever had and would make the trip there again just for that.

Truly a fine dining experience. The service is perfection. Everyone serving on you is able to talk about each dish laid in front of you. Sommeliers know of the countless options available to help pair with any plate. Each dish is unique with fabulous aromas and flavors. I highly recommend Addison and their staff. An memorable experience.

The taste of the food and quality of service at this restaurant, while good, did not meet my expectations given the price point and Michelin status. Most dishes were on the creamy/salty/oily side and dessert overly sweet. Chef liked to use Japanese ingredients/technique but the flavor didn’t seem right. What puzzled me the most was a fried chicken/ thai coconut soup dish in the middle of the course, which seemed really out of place and tasted incredibly average. The service, while attentive, was not personable. The pace of each dish was also weird- we waited for 30+ minutes after sitting down to receive the first dish, while the second half of the course felt rushed. Overall would not recommend if you have high expectations.

From the moment we entered, to the moment we left, the entire experience was mindblowing. Chef Bradley walking in the room was like being in the presence of a rockstar, and the menu explains why. After this, I’m unsure any culinary adventure will ever be a surprise.

When you go to a Michelin starred restaurant, you can expect the best of the best. With two under their belt, Addison holds up to its name offering impeccable service and cuisine inspired throughout the world. The fresh ingredients and their take on some classic Asian flavors should serve as an inspiration for others to live up to. It is towards the top of my list of fine restaurants but had some minor misses along the way.

My experience at Addison was akin to the times I’ve dined at 3 Michelin star restaurants. They’ve certainly earned their reputation and more. The menu was expertly composed: some staples like caviar atop a delicious pudding of smoked sabayon and rice, a surprising Tom Kha soup expertly paired with Riesling, a wagyu dish that I’ll never forget, and the artful balance (in menu as in within the courses) of their multi-bite appetizer and multi-bite dessert. Not one course failed to impress. I must recommend the wine pairing and upgrading to the wagyu beef course.
