Wine Spectator Grand Awards in 2025 and 2026
Wine Spectator gave The Stonehouse its Grand Award in 2025 and 2026, alongside Star Wine List recognition in both years. Plan around wine as a central reason to choose the restaurant.
Classic Steak Diane and Coastal Californian cooking
Contemporary American Coastal Californian cooking here focuses on Californian Coastal cuisine, with Classic Steak Diane, SYR Macaroni & Cheese, and Dungeness Crab Cake among named dishes.
San Ysidro Ranch garden and terrace
Garden and terrace elements sit within San Ysidro Ranch, and the pace is leisurely with quiet, smart casual dining. That fit favors a longer, conversation-led lunch or dinner.
