Frommer's Review

Cafe Del Rey is one of those lively restaurants where everyone seems to be celebrating something on the company's tab. There's a terrific view of the marina's bobbing sailboats, particularly in the summer when the windows facing the harbor are open, creating an indoor-outdoor dining area. The exhibition kitchen focuses on creative preparations of fresh and seasonal foods, but the choices are so varied that it's impossible to accurately categorize the cafe's cuisine. Sure bets are the Colorado lamb shank prepared osso buco style with creamy polenta, the boar bacon-wrapped filet mignon in cabernet sauce, and the fish de jour. The Wine Spectator-award-winning wine list offers more than 340 selections. My advice: Request a table by the window, ask your server what's good today, pair it with a nice bottle of wine, and enjoy a long, leisurely meal.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
