Veranda Fireside Lounge and Restaurant

Gary Giffin

The Rancho Bernardo Veranda Fireside Lounge Restaurant is the perfect location to meet up with Clients & Friends. Rancho Bernardo Inn is a destination resort known for its exquisite golf, spa facilities. The Veranda Fireside lounge with seating outside has amazing views. We decided to start with their Brussel Sprouts appetizer with a tangy goat cheese and balsamic reduction was really good. We both had dinner salads and after trying them both we agreed the Caesar Salad with the BBQ charred shrimp was the best. You cant go wrong here and the service was 5 stars too!

This is our absolute favorite Happy Hour (HH) place to go to. They have HH everyday and there's something for everyone. The Veranda has gorgeous views along with fireplaces and heaters for chillier days. Highly recommend the brussels sprouts, they are to die for! We honestly just get one of everything on the HH small plates menu because at $5/plate, why not? And we've enjoyed every dish. I always go for a glass of house sparkling but they have a few beers on draft for HH as well. Stay past HH for live music after every day. Make a reservation on the weekends as they do fill up.

Loved this beautiful place and all it's outdoor seating. There are heat lamps and the huge fireplace so always comfortable temperature-wise. They have a simple dinner menu with good food. We had mussels and fries, a very delicious burger and some nice cocktails. The dessert was also delicious, lava cake and bread pudding.

With restrictions loosening up a bit we've been trying to find new outdoor local spots to hang out. We have been to Veranda in the past but not for a while. I remember their dinner was decent, was crowded so it was a different experience. We stopped by for lunch, still busy but we were seated right away. This was a first where we've been brought a bottle of water in lieu of glasses but it was quite nice. Staff was great from being seated to service. My husband got the Ahi Tuna sandwich and said it was delicious. I opted for the margarita flatbread which was tasty as well, like a woodfire pizza. Standard beer and vodka club soda to drink. Clean, friendly staff, fairly reasonably priced, an overall great place.
