Description:
No restaurant in San Diego has been more adept at mixing business and pleasure than Dobson's. Since 1984 it's been synonymous with the power lunch, a place where local executives and politicos come to break bread and make deals. By day it buzzes with the energy of movers and shakers; in the evening it segues from happy-hour watering hole to sophisticated pre- and post-theater American bistro. Look for menu entries like oven-roasted wild salmon; chicken in Marsala, black fig, and thyme jus; flatiron steak in chimichurri sauce; and the signature mussel bisque.
