    Great place to chill so many different sitting areas with oceanfront view! Try coffee.

    Whenever we're in Del Mar, we always try to stop by here. We love having lunch, browsing the cute shops, and enjoying those wonderful views. We were here right after Christmas, and it was fun seeing all the pretty decorations still up. We enjoyed lunch at Il Fornaio and shopped at a few of the stores. This plaza is cute even though it's a bit of the smaller size. What it doesn't have in size, it makes up for in those great views and fun shopping. We like stopping by the Michael Seewald Gallery when we're here. We like all the beautiful photography and even took a class here last summer. For a good spot to grab lunch and enjoy some shopping, this a lovely little plaza when visiting the cute town of Del Mar!

    Five Stars all the way around! Aside from the beautiful location and surroundings, this place is a little gem! We had lunch at Pacifica, and it was delicious fresh and great service. We shopped at a few stores and bought souvenirs to bring back home to family and friends. One shop that I did like very much is the Coco Rose, they also have other locations. The lady that attended us was very charming nice and helpful. She even suggested a few colors I would of never thought of. I bought lots of their earrings and tops and dresses. Such a lovely place and their bags are so cute with big roses on the print. There is also fountain that is quite interesting. It's so lovely to just stroll thru and take a nice break by the fountain. I love the hacienda and Old mission feel to it. Very nice for sue.

    The first "Lifestyle" shopping mall I ever visited, long ago. Overlooking the Pacific under perpetual sun, amidst flowers, fountains and flamenco / reggae- inspired music, it's a sensory delight. Never actually shopped here though, but you don't need to. Just relax with a drink -- healthy or alcoholic -- and enjoy the vibe at one of the several open air bars or restaurants.

    Del Mar Plaza is nestled in posh Del Mar, minus the attitude. This shopping center-restaurants hub has one of the best views of Del Mar beach. It has some of the best boutiques for ladies out there (if you can afford the prices) and is the home of the first Smashburger I ever tried (my favorite burger chain) on the fast food track, and home of upscale restaurants on the other side. The relax you can experience chillin by Il Fornaio fountain and benches is something to try. Sometimes I go there not even with the intention of shopping anything or eating, just to enjoy the view, draw a bit and enjoy even a cloudy day (which happen more often that not in that corner). Parking structure is a mess, though. I don't like it, people drive very bad here, is confusing even though is not a big parking lot. Elevators just don't seem to work or are extremely slow. You can get 2 hour validation parking at most businesses.

    The views from the balcony at Del Mar Plaza are phenomenal. Parking is easy and validated for two hours. My hairdresser, Jamie, who is at Salon Republic is fantastic. And Il Fornaio is a great restaurant. The mall is always so empty though and I can't understand why because it is lovely and in a very touristy area. So many stores come and go here all the time and I assume it because there is just not enough foot traffic. I hope they can do something to make it more dynamic because the location is fantastic and it just should be a whole lot busier and more fun than it is.

    The top level of the Del Mar Plaza.

    The view overlooking the Pacific is worth five stars alone, and that's one of the main allures of this plaza. Built in the 80's, it's drawn architects the world over to study it's design and beauty, as it fits into the hillside with three level of underground parking and you'd hardly notice there is a 'mall' here driving by! Top level has a huge open deck for anyone to sit and relax while taking in the view of the coast half way to Orange County. It hosts one of the top four restaurants in the county, Pacifica Del Mar, as well as Il Fornaio Italian, a sushi restaurant (SHIMBASHI, hidden on second level, and overlooking the ocean too), an Asian fusion (Rendezvous) and now an upscale burger joint (Smashburger) for the in and out crowd. Plenty of shops, incl. Banana Republic, Gary's men's, three art galleries, a few boutiques, etc.. Sunset with a glass of wine and Hors d'oeuvres from the 'Enoteca wine bar' on top level... heaven. Free two hour parking, minimal charge per hour afterwards. Well worth a visit.

    Del Mar Plaza is a beautiful upscale outdoor center with a European flair. Think Tuscany. It features a truly eclectic mix of shops as well as some of the best restaurants in San Diego. It's worth the drive up or down as the food at any one of these places is amazing. IL Fornaio, Epazote, J.F. Japanese Cafe, Pacific Del Mar, Enoteca Del Fornaio all sport an ocean view. It doesn't really get any better than this. Java Kai located on the street level is a great Hawaiian coffee house with the friendliest staff around. Of course the clothing shops have a nice variety and Harvest Ranch Market carries high quality meats, produce and a wonderful selection of wines. Visit the Website for more info:http://www.delmarplaza.com/ DEL MAR AT DUSK takes place on the first Tuesday of Every Month, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Shops offer specials including the restaurants. Music is also a part of this fun evening. And during the summers on the DEL MAR PLAZA DECK - enjoy a bit of jazz every Sunday night from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m

They have a plethora of stores and restaurants but my favorites are definitely Sephora, Pigment and Salt & Straw. When in the mood to drink beer and whatnot, I love Hardland Brewery! The location at One Paseo is one of my top 5 faves. Parking is adequate. The recently installed a "Premier Paid Parking" option on the 1st level of the parking garage. You can easily just scan the QR code and pay - the only thing that's not cool about this is the minimum amount of hours they have is three hours. They need to have an option where it can be 1-2 hours. I've never stayed for three hours or longer here. However, there is free parking on multiple levels of the structure. Yesterday when I came during the day on a Thursday... It was quite packed! There are customer service of staff at Sephora, Pigment and Salt & Straw is amazing. They have a nice selection of stores such as Roark, Fjall Raven, Faherty, Lululemon, Marrow and more. As far as restaurants, they house North Italia, Jan's Health Bar (their smoothies are my fave esp the Chunky Monkey), Postino (great menu and happy hour menu), Nick's Del Mar, Shake Shack, Cava and more. My ultimate most favorite thing about this place is that it's extremely pet friendly! My favorite thing to do is after shopping I go get myself a scoop of ice cream at salt and straw and then sit and eat out on the sitting area outside with my dog. Pricing at One Paseo is anywhere from mid to moderate to high. my reason for my four star review instead of five is the premier paid parking. The three hour minimum isn't cool with me. Please have a 1 or 2 hour option. Overall, this is a nice place to go with a friend or a partner or family and a group of friends to just hang out and enjoy the day/night.
