Thanksgiving restaurant ideas

[barnaby33]

Normally I goto my sisters for Thanksgiving. This year she felt overwhelmed and asked if we could do a restaurant instead. I’d like ideas about places On the I5 from oceanside south. If you know of a place, be it restaurant, hotel, or really good soup kitchen, let me know.

This question came up from friends who were visiting last year, and here’s the list we gave them. I believe all of these restaurants are open on Thanksgiving, but be sure to call ahead for prices and reservations ASAP.

On the high end in La Jolla, there’s La Valencia, The Shores and The Marine Room.

I think the Rancho Valencia Resort in Rancho Santa Fe may also be open. I remember that we dined there with friends on several holidays, but can’t remember if any were on Thanksgiving.

Also try L’Auberge in Del Mar, and possibly Jake’s and Poseidon.

If you want a truly reasonable home-style Thanksgiving, Mimi’s Cafe is also open, I believe. They have several locations.

I’m sure other posters will offer their thoughts, but this is a start.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Try the Union Fib’s weekend section this Thursday or next. They always have lots of options advertised for Turkey day.

Check out the Zoo and Wild Animal Park.

We’re going to the WAP for the second year in a row. They have a buffet w/ two seatings.

Zoo has both a buffet and a sit down dinner w/ a fixed menu.

Both are great with kids because you get to check out the exhibits afterwards/before and you can’t beat the clean up.

Only downside is you do have to get on site – so you have to pay admission unless you are members or know someone w/ guest passes.

Check out their site http://www.sandiegozoo.org for details on both sites’ events.

A friend went to Big Jim’s BBQ in Encintas a few thanksgivings in a row and liked it. It is a very casual place, probably lots cheaper than a hotel. They also do pick up dinner packages and have fried turkey.
