Candor by Giuseppe - La Jolla

Burrata was excellent happy hour a great value. Tomato soup a little too rich with Gorgonzola added. Less cheese

We had a great lunch yesterday. We had a time constraint and the waiter made sure that everything arrived with perfect timing and the food was delicious.

We took our daughter and her friend to Candor for dinner and everyone loved it. They have great cocktail and an interesting menu. We had only been there once before but the waiter remembered us and even where we sat. I had the salmon that comes with kale and rice and a tahini sauce which was nice and crispy and tasted very fresh. The girls had pasta dishes that they loved and we had two salads which were enough for four people. Overall, Candor is a nice, low key place to relax over a nice meal.

The food as always was wonderful. The service is good. My only complaint is that the hostess tried to seat us outside on a chilly night even with plenty of indoor seating. Instead she seated us right by the door. She claimed rhe seating further indoors was for bigger parties. She then sat 3 separate couples at those warmer tables after we arrived!

The waiter while nice, spoke little English so was unable to answer questions about the food or understand our order without coming back to the table to re affirm what we wanted. The food was average. The pasta and clams was underseasoned and had too much lemon giving the sauce and almost bitter flavor. The branzino was fresh and delicate, great potatoes came with it. Super average carrot cake with a yummy frosting and dry cake.
