Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Normal Heights

Amazing! Clearly the best restaurant in San Diego! Everything was right. Our server, Sky, was amazing.

OMG.... this place by far is the best Italian Restaurant I've ever been to. Took my family to celebrate my father's Birthday and I can't complain at all. Service was excelent and very attentive. Food was freaking HOT which is great... dessert was amazing. And a big Thank You to Alvaro the waiter who made a real conversation with my Dad...

We haven't been here in over a year, but it won't be long before we'll be back. The food was a wow which rarely happens in my dining experience. We like to sample a lot of different items, so we spent a lot of time on the "Bites" part of the menu, and it was all fantastic. Each item we had was very well crafted and well executed to deliver some extraordinary flavor combinations. The Oysters, Tostados, Handrolls, and Steak tartar were all highlights and not what you would normally expect for these types of dishes. the Dover Sole was very enjoyable, but it was a special so won't always be there. Not a huge wine list but well covered and you could get many nice wines by the glass that are normally reserved for by the bottle lists. I highly recommend going, we will go back very soon.

For individuals that has never been to lips. I would advise you to go. It is an absolute wonderful fabulous experience. Customer service is amazing cocktails are the best food outstanding thanks to everyone at lips and always showing us a wonderful time. Yes, I will be back. ❤️

Attended the 5-course Christmas Eve dinner. It was worth every penny- from start to finish it was coursed beautifully, ingredients were fresh and cooked perfectly to temp, plating was festive and colourful; and all this with just the right timed check-ins from my bartender/server James. The couple next to me did the wine pairing and everything was explained nicely and paired well... along with some fun history & stories- I opted for the cocktails which were creative and utilized some lovely ingredients as well as being well balanced.
