Frommer's Review
Since 1965, San Diegans have come to high-rise Mister A's for proms, anniversaries, power meals, and other special occasions. A reported $1-million makeover under the stewardship of one of San Diego's most successful restaurateurs, Bertrand Hug, turned the original Mister A's, with its dark red-velvet interiors and cocktail waitresses in campy one-shouldered gowns, into Bertrand at Mister A's -- an elegant, bright, sophisticated space with an array of modern art. The seasonal menu is modern American with a French/Mediterranean twist (think veal medallions, bouillabaisse, and Maine lobster strudel). A bar/patio menu gives diners on a budget access to the unsurpassed vistas. Hug is also the proprietor of romantic Mille Fleurs in the North County neighborhood of Rancho Santa Fe.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
