Prado San Diego Reviews from The Last Year
This is a busy beautiful spot with a nice view and good
This is a busy beautiful spot with a nice view and good food. It was my second visit...the last time was nine years ago! We both enjoyed our entrees - the market Greens and the Birria Torta. I love this style of French fries. My husband loved the San Diego Lemonade and for me, it was a perfect day for bubbles. I would recommend this spot if you are in Balboa. The outside seating is even nicer but you may encounter a wait.

Had their restaurant week prefix, an extra app, and a dessert, everything I had was pretty bland. Food wise everything was pretty underwhelming, the stand outs were oddly their soup of the day and the dessert I had which was their crème brûlée. My entree of mushroom risotto that I was very excited for was pretty flavorless. I've eaten here several times over the years of living in SD, you really come here for the location and not the food, it's beautiful atmosphere but that's really the selling point is the ambiance. Service was good enough, always tip your servers even if the experience wasn't perfect, unless they were outright it rude then there is no reason to not tip them. They not only serve your every need but they pay to serve you, they literally pay money from your tip to serve you.

Thanks to Sofia, Operations Manager who reached out to resolve the concern in my review. I am glad to know that they do take corrective actions within their team to ensure issues won't happen in the future. Restaurant Chef and manager were informed of the situation.
Fantastic experience! Our 1st time trying this restaurant.
We tried Restaurant week menu and it was delicious. We sat outside and it was so beautiful and peaceful. Ricky our waitress was so helpful and gave us excellent service. He was so helpful and attentive. He even told us about wine night on Tuesday's,,,I will try wine Tuesday for sure. The food came out quickly and Delicious. I got the chicken BLT, the fries were delicious. My girlfriend had the fig, strawberry, candied walnuts, arugula and fig Salad. It was delicious as well. The German cake was outstanding. I'm impressed. Great customer service and delicious food. A must try!!! You can't beat the beautiful area. Love it!!!

Best for ambiance and service!! Food is good but the stars are in locations and service.
Always excellent
The Prado is definitely a favourite when I visit San Diego. Our recent experience was excellent. They offer specials as well as the regular menu. Service was pleasant and efficient and the food was delicious
Fabulous restaurant in the heart of the Balboa Park!
Fabulous restaurant in the heart of the Balboa Park! Spacious with great interior and even nicer outdoor seating with a view and fountain side!!! Staff is very friendly with even the bus boy introducing himself to customers! I liked that as it added a touch of classiness! Menu is pretty good food wise and drink wise but I only had a salad. Cobb salad is absolutely great! I loved it. I asked for different dressing and that was easily accommodated! All in all - this is a great place to meet friends for drinks or dinner, or have even larger celebration!!!
Fabulous birthday dinner!
Delicious food, fabulous service, gorgeous ambiance! Ian was our server, and he was instrumental in helping to make our experience even that much better! Ian was professional, personable, attentive and genuinely wonderful! My daughter has allergies that Ian helped to navigate with the chef for a successful outcome!! This is a very special restaurant I highly recommend.
We found The Prado after checking out the Air & Space
We found The Prado after checking out the Air & Space Museum. Step into this picturesque hacienda near historical galleries and showrooms of Balboa Park! My party and I were sat in the balcony which was beautiful to have lunch. The minus one star is simply because of the 5% service charge on the bill. Food was delicious and fresh. Our waitress was attentive and bubbly. I'll return for more!
By far the most gorgeous surrounding in San Diego and our
By far the most gorgeous surrounding in San Diego and our go to place when seeking a peaceful place to dine and walk around. Made a reservation as these are one of the busier places and have eaten here over time and time again. We were greeted with a friendly smile and were welcomed to our table. We enjoy dining both indoor and outdoor, outdoor is our preferred but can be busy and a longer wait even with a reservation. We started with the Prado crackers and the hummus, their crackers are crispy and light. The pressed arugula salad is a constant order as we love the dressing and the strawberries added to it. The grilled Kobe burger is another staple we always order and is the juiciest restaurant style burger. The mahi mahi burger is also deliciously made. And of course we ended the meal with a crème brûlée and tres leches. Love this restaurant as it plays so many memoirs in our life.
Not as expected
We (couple) had a 7.30 pm dinner reservation. There was plenty of room for a Saturday evening. service from our server was good. The kitchen was disappointing. They were out of the sushi. Then they were out of the pasta. The Mustard Crusted Pork Prime Rib was not mustard crusted. It came with the sauce on the side. The Margarita was excellent. The Spicy Calamari Fries was good too. For the price paid, it was a mediocre evening.
The Prado restaurant at Balboa Park was a pleasant surprise.
Now getting to Balboa park and finding a parking spot is a pain but if you get lucky then that is the hardest part. We wanted a sit down restaurant and this is the only one I think, so off we go. The restaurant is nice and really beautiful inside. The service was friendly and the food was good. It was a little bit pricy but we didn't mind. I got a shrimp cobb salad and my husband got a chicken sandwich. We also got the ice tea that was really good. We will definitely go back if we visit Balboa park, but it's always so crowded down there that I usually don't go often.
The quality of the food at The Prado has plummeted.
We started with the cauliflower and corn appetizer which was great. My husband had the paella which was tasteless and the rice was overcooked. I ordered the Pasta alla Norma and it was lukewarm. I reluctantly sent it back to be reheated and was told it would be tossed in a pan. The food arrived warmer but still not hot. Oddly, the plate was hotter than the food. The pasta was also bland and tasteless. The service was top notch and attentive but it couldn't make up for the poor quality of the food. At the prices they're charging, the food should be better. It feels as though The Prado doesn't need to try at all because they've got the built-in business of the theatre patrons who don't have many nearby choices for dinner and tourists who aren't going to be coming back anyway. Too bad. It used to be a place for a nice meal.
Awesome!
My 70 year old gal pals had a celebration lunch for year of birthdays today. We had such fun and part of that was our wonderful wait person. Shay was a delight, efficient, patient and kind. Management: please thank Shay for her great service and hope she receives a monetary reward for her professionalism!
Amazing location
The Prado in Balboa Park is in an incredibly beautiful setting. Either outdoors or indoors you can’t go wrong. Service was good with decently quick drink refills. Food was decent - it’s pretty standard “cafe” food with the high prices you would expect from the location. If you are in Balboa Park already however, you really couldn’t go wrong with stopping here for lunch or a drink!
Disappointing meal on Thanksgiving
We came for Thanksgiving dinner. Got seated on time, waited on time. Food came quickly. Turkey dinner was barely warm, turkey meat was like wet wool, stretchy thin, and odd consistency, no flavor. Mashed potatoes, green beans, Stuffing were all lack luster. Salad had rotting pieces of lettuce. Carrot cake was tiny but good. One of our party had vegan meal, which was a tiny piece of veggie lasagna, and nothing else. Dinner each started at $74.95, plus tax, tip, and surcharge, absolutely not worth it.
Lunch with friends
Prado is a beautiful restaurant with a very friendly atmosphere. We asked for a table outside on the terrace and were even asked if we would prefer a table in the sun or shade. The menu had so many wonderful choices and our server Scott went through the menu with us in detail to make sure we were making choices to our taste. The food was delicious and the service exceptional. I would not hesitate to recommend Prado.
unforgettable experience
amazing experience. we went with the chef’s tasting menu. the staff’s attentiveness and the curated menu was unbeatable. if youre looking for a unique dining experience in lisbon, this is a must!
Lovely little spot
A very quaint little place on a small garden. Stopped for appetizers and drinks. The grilled cauliflower was delish and the Sangria was decent

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it? |
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
Newbie sellers— how fast do your reservations sell?
I have some reservations coming up tomorrow that have gotten lots of views but haven’t sold yet. I haven’t made a sale yet since I just joined this week. I keep lowering the price, but am worried they won’t sell. How long did it take you to sell your first reservations? And did you have success being reimbursed by AT for no-show or cancellation fees? Just looking for a little reassurance. Thanks!

This app is a catfish and overrun by people programming “bots” and algorithms. It makes it frustrating for someone not well versed in this to have any movement. I thought this would be a fun side hustle, but unfortunately it’s become like any other “side hustle”. Don’t waste your time with this crap. Not a question, just a suggestion. Also don’t pay these fake “gurus” hundreds of dollars to teach you. Might as well sign up for a software class. 😕
