New Years in La Jolla

[mehrirubin]

Hi all,

My family (parents and 2 yr old son) will be staying in La Jolla for a week over New Years. I know there are lots of good old threads to look through, but I was wondering if someone could please recommend a good place to go for New Year's Eve -- early (like 5pm), with the baby. I would also be very interested in other restaurant recommendations (sushi, Mexican, California) in La Jolla or within driving distance. My wife and I will definitely get a night or two without the baby while there, so is there one top spot we should hit while free?

Thanks!
mr

Thank you voice of reason!

At 5pm you shouldn't have a problem with the tot, most places will welcome you. There's Prep Kitchen on Fay, Wisk N Ladle (same owners), Nine-Ten, La Valencia and The Lodge at Torrey Pines. For your free night, Addison would be a good place to re-charge and relax. For a casual kid friendly breakfast, Harry's Coffee Shop on Girard.

La Jolla is surprisingly kid friendly- I know I've taken my kids everywhere except George's pretty much in La Jolla. One question- what does your son like to eat?

Thanks for the reply. My son likes Mexican, Italian... can usually find something anywhere.

Funny, I was thinking about George's for New Years. Not a good place for a kid then?

Not the main dining room, but was thinking whisknladle might work nicely.
