WOW! I'm not one to search out bruschetta, but when our friend recommended this place we were like why not? We were told to get the build your own bruschetta board and there were so many options. We ended up ordering almost all of them on two boards and my favorites were the... - Prosciutto, fig, and mascarpone - Brie, apple, and fig - Chef's choice (street corn) Ultimately everything was amazing. Special shoutout to the crispy cauliflower as well, cooked so well & whatever sauce they used - AMAZING! read more

There's a reason why i keep coming here. The customer service is amazing. I came for Mother's Day lunch. We didn't have a reservation but the hostess offered a booth to us right away. It's a bit crowded for 5 ppl but i wasn't going to wait for 45 min. Our waitress came and noticed that it's too small for us. She spoke to the manager and made arrangements to move reservations around so they could move us to a bigger table. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. When we were done, there's an issue with our gift card. The manager took care of us and resolved the issue efficiently and professionally. It made a huge difference in our dining experience. Thank you. read more

My palate is not refined enough to differentiate between the different terroirs, different countries etc but I always enjoy the wines here. I like that they're not snobbish about it and would be able to help me pick up a wine when I'm not sure and answer my questions non-judgmentally. I love the openness of this place. You can sit by the bar or sit in one of the booths and be able to people watch as you sip your wine. And you can also get apps if you like some food! read more

I had a very positive experience here for lunch today!! We got sat promptly on the patio which was lovely. Quick and friendly service. I ordered the bruschetta board with 2 burrata/bacon & 2 fresh tomato. I loved the flavors and freshness of it all. I also got the prickly pear lemonade which was pretty tart at first but got sweeter once I mixed the syrup throughout. I would recommend this place! Parking is free. read more

Postino Del Mar, located in One Paseo right off el Camino Real, is my new favorite spot. The food is always delicious, and the staff goes above and beyond! Rachel, our server, took really good care of us. She gave great wine and food recommendations. We were lucky enough to have come during happy hour! $7 glasses of wine and $7 pitchers of craft beer. Cheers! I ordered the pub board. It came with soft pretzel bites, Italian sausage, Spanish pork links, fondue, packo pickles, and cornichons! DELICIOUS! My friends ordered the salmon board and the west coaster. Also very delicious. Thanks, Rachel and Postino crew, for always taking good care of us. read more

We came here after doing a weekend morning class at Pigment and the food & drinks hit the spot! We walked right in, no wait- around noon in a Saturday. The patio was perfect shielded by the wall so we had perfect shade. We had to get the donut balls but remember they do take 10 minutes so give your server a heads up when you want them. I tried to be healthy first off since knowing I would devour the donut balls, so I had one of the salads. My friend got the meatballs and loved them! She got a watermelon cocktail and loved it too. This place is dog friendly too and only on the patio. read more

We love Postino so much that we make sure to stop by every time we are in Del Mar! If you're looking for the BEST wine and beer happy hour in town, look no further. The food is delicious and they have so many gluten free options which is always appreciated. Make sure to get a bruschetta board, it's what they are known for and it never disappoints (including gf option). The staff is always friendly and attentive everytime we go but Suzie is our absolute favorite! Wherever you decided to sit, you'll enjoy your stay. They have a stylish and trendy indoor seating section and a beautiful patio with umbrellas for shade if you want to enjoy the perfect Southern California weather. read more

We came here to celebrate my friend's bday and we had the best service from Carly. She was so professional and friendly. The way she took charge and how she checked in on us made me think that she was the manager but found out later that she was a server. It's refreshing to experience excellent customer service these days as I feel many places are lacking in that area. The food as usual was delicious. Postino is really known for its boards so we ordered my favorites-mushroom, prosciutto and fig, bacon tomatoes and burrata, and the smoked salmon. We also ordered the shrimp scampi and brussel sprouts salad. I have to say that although the salad was good it didn't seem like it had that much brussel sprouts in it. For dessert we ordered the donut holes which was very good. They're made with ricotta so it's more dense but yummy especially dipped in the 3 sauces -chocolate, vanilla, and caramel. Lastly Postino has a great selection of wines but I tried their newer cocktail this time . It was the peach whiskey sour... loved it! When it was time to pay the bill, Carly told us that since we were such a great group of ladies, she comp'd our board and the bday girl's dessert. Wow! Nothing's really free anymore. I also met JD who was the manager that approved these comps. He was also fabulous. Can't wait to go back! read more

My husband and I decided to do a very last-minute dinner date arriving over to One Paseo Shopping area around 8:40pm. We were warmly greeted by the hostess who welcomed us without reservations she said we were able to sit inside or outside and wherever we would like in the restaurant. We chose inside, our server was incredibly kind and offered a wide array of suggestions from the menu since this was our first time here. She mentioned they were known for their bruschetta plate. I decided to order it, and I let the server pick the four different toppings of bruschetta (I also went with the gluten-free bread option). One was a smoked salmon, the other pear with fig/brie, next bacon with bruschetta tomato/arugula, and lastly, sweet and pepper jam with goat cheese. They were all delicious & good on the gluten free bread. I also got a small chopped side salad. My husband had the Italian beef dip (he loved it!). && for dessert we had the hot donut dots with dipping sauce!! I highly recommend it!! We had excellent service & the food was good. We would definitely come back again with a group of friends. The location is great & ambiance is nice inside good for date night or just out with friends. read more

The ambiance is so intimate and the inside is quite classy but there isn't a dress code it's casual which is so nice. The boards and the different choices are delicious so much to choose from and such great variety , now the wines are absolutely delicious, I am a moscato person and the server was so informed about her wines it was so great having someone explain the different notes! Overall a 10/10 experience I would highly recommend to couples and girlie nights! read more

First time at Postino and I enjoyed the ambiance, service, food and beverage. The server was helpful as we navigated through the menu. We started with the Bruschetta where we chose 4 items to build our board. This was yummy and we split the Italian Beef Dip Panini with a Side Salad. We appreciated that our server split our plate including the dip. I opted for Aperol Spritz to start and ended with a coffee. We had the Hot Donut Dots for dessert. I would definitely return. read more

Came here for a girls night and it was the perfect place for it! We came at 3:30 during happy hour, and sadly realized happy hour is only for their wines and beers but no food included. Nonetheless we still ordered food and had a great time. My grilled cheese and tomato soup was sooo yummy. Huge fan of their tomato soup. We shared some bruschetta boards - our fave toppings were the salmon and pesto and the artichoke spread! We also ordered the hazelnut bar for dessert and that was great I've never had a dessert quite like it! It was like a hazelnut wafer chocolate bar with a peanut butter mousse. The service here is also just very friendly, the vibes on the outside patio are great. read more

I enjoyed an excellent caprese panino at this Postino location. I loved the way they toasted the panini bread. The bread had excellent texture and tasty flavor. The caprese came with fresh arugula, fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced Roma tomatoes, olive oil, balsamic, and a very good delicious basil pesto sauce that brought the panini together nicely. The panini coast $16.25 plus tax. As a side, I ordered the seasonal potato soup. It was very well made and tasted delicious. I was certainly a fan of it. The service was very good. It was very friendly. Being at Paseo One, there's plenty of parking at the dedicated parking structure. They offer a variety of wines, paninis, salads, and open faced items. Postino is a great place for lunch, dinner, and brunch. read more

The food at Postino Del Mar is consistently delicious, and the whole place has a trendy, welcoming vibe. It's perfect for group dining or a casual meal with a friend. I made a lunch reservation for seven, and we were seated at a great outdoor table with plenty of space--ideal for sharing lots of dishes. I've tried a good portion of their menu over multiple visits, including the cauliflower, grilled cheese, bruschetta boards, paninis, salads, and soups. Honestly, I haven't had a single item I didn't enjoy. The grilled cheese comes sliced into small portions--perfect for sharing--and the tomato soup is smooth, warm, and incredibly comforting. Truly a flawless combo. My favorite panini is the prosciutto and Brie. Yum. This was my second time at the Del Mar location, and parking is pretty easy, especially during the day. In the evenings the lot can fill up, so arriving about 10 minutes before your reservation is a good idea. Huge shoutout to Alex, our server, who was fantastic. He was gracious, knowledgeable, and somehow kept track of everyone's order--even with a big, slightly chaotic group. All our food came out on time, and his recommendations were spot on. Definitely ask him for his favorite bruschetta spreads! He also had wonderful recommendations for those of us who are not drinkers. The non-alcoholic selection here is amazing. read more

Met a friend here for a late dinner and the service was great. Since there were a few tables open, they let us choose where we wanted to sit and checked in on us every so often to make sure we were comfortable while also giving us the privacy to talk. My friend and I shared two bruschetta boards and an OMG grilled cheese, and all of it was so good! It's the perfect wine bar for light food and a romantic atmosphere. Our favorites were the prosciutto, fig, and mascarpone and the fresh mozzarella, tomato, and basil. They didn't have a huge selection of wines, which might be the only downside if you're looking for an extensive wine list, but I really liked the red I chose. Overall would definitely recommend for a night out with friends or a date! read more

Went at 130 on a Saturday afternoon with my pup. They were so accommodating to me and my boy. I had planned to order the bruschetta but diverted and ordered the soup of the day, small Caesar, and the shrimp appetizer with an Arnold Palmer. The soup was listed as bean and sausage, which sounded amazing. But it was more tomato and sausage as I only had 1 bean in the soup. Despite that it was really good. I would order it again. It was served with a piece of toast perfect for dipping. The Caesar was good with a lemony dressing and yummy croutons. It was served in a small bowl that made it hard to eat. I would serve it on a plate since the Romain pieces were large and needed to be cut. The shrimp appetizer came with 5 large shrimp and artichoke. It has this lemony dressing with Calabrian chilis. So, so good. The shrimp were plump just the right amount of seasoning. I ordered the hazelnut crunch dessert to go. The hazelnut spread came open in transit. But I still ate every bite. Will be ordering again. It was happy hour with good deals on wine and beer Parking was tight, but finally just paid for a spot in the garage. They brought my pup water and chose a table where he could grab some sun. Service was helpful, knowledgeable, and just the right amount of checking in. read more

POSTINO @ DEL MAR Parking is available in their lots, I'd recommend parking across the street to Urban Plates & Omomo, there are more spots available and less crowded! This was my second time going to Postino! The last time I went was for a Yelp event at their Little Italy location, so I was super excited to check out the Del Mar spot. We got seated right away, and I instantly fell in love with their outdoor patio, it was sunny and beautiful for a Saturday evening. The staff were really friendly and welcoming, and we were given water and menus right away. Their happy hour deal is seriously amazing! They had $7 pitchers, and of course my boyfriend couldn't resist ordering one. It filled about two full glasses of beer, such a steal! We decided to share the bruschetta board, which comes with four pieces for $20. They had a great selection of flavors, and we ended up getting two of the smoked salmon & pesto, one tomato bacon, and one tomato mozzarella (a total classic!). Everything came out within 5-10 minutes, and the bruschetta was so good, the bread was perfectly crispy on the outside but soft on the inside. The toppings were super fresh and flavorful, and I loved that you could mix and match. My boyfriend really enjoyed his pitcher too, and we both left happy and full. Overall, I'd definitely come back to this location it's such a cute spot for happy hour, and the atmosphere is perfect for a casual weekend date night! read more

I came in on a Saturday at 12 and was seated right away. They asked if I wanted inside or outside and warned me that outside may be a bit sunny. I appreciated that they were forward-thinking about our experience. We opted for inside. The decor is unique and funky- so much to look at! The restrooms were immaculately clean. Always a good sign! We didn't know it was happy hour so we indulged in a $7 glass of wine. We also shared the bruschetta board. Fig/pear/brie, mozz/tomato/basil, smoked salmon/pesto, date/ricotta/pistachio. All were great! The bread is top tier delicious. All ingredients are fresh and the presentation was classy. My favorite is the date/ricotta/pistachio and classic mozz/tomato/basil. The smoked salmon/pesto was a tad too salty for my liking and the Fig/pear/brie was sweet with the brie flavor dominating. This truly was the perfect lunchtime appetizer with our glass of wine! I will certainly return when I'm in the area and craving bruschetta. read more

I love the vibes at Postino Del Mar! Perfect for dates with your friends or significant other :)! Service went smoothly and my friend and I went at a not so busy time!

Least faves for us was the squash special and Brie, apple, fig, but you know what, that's just cause we had so many options to try haha. So what wasn't the best for us may be the best for you ;) Be sure to try them out! read more

Great place to go with friends! It's a great location, easy to get to. I've been here twice. I would keep coming back for the location and price point on items alone. Sour: The food is decent. Definitely not my favorite but it has good variety. Can't complain for the price point. I've had the different boards. The options sound better than they taste. It's a good shareable option just nothing spectacular about it except its light and nice pairing option with your wine. This time I had the grilled cheese and tomato soup. It's a good size portion. They serve you 2 grilled cheese paninis and soup. The grilled cheese itself was only ok. There was something about the texture it seemed off. Could have been the cheese but I do like all the cheeses in there. The tomato soup was very good but it was a little cold. Sweet: It's more of a wine bar but it's nice that they serve other cocktail options if you aren't into wine like me. They have a variety of cocktails that are light and refreshing to choose from. read more

When I tell you, I love this restaurant! Me and my friend have went at least five times. Every single time we go we mix and match to try different bruschetta boards. We also tried their charcuterie as well! First and foremost I love the vibes. They have a lot of great happy hour specials, but unfortunately, we've never made it there early enough to grab them, but the service was phenomenal. Every single time we go the servers are so sweet! Their wine is also delicious! My favorite is the wrestling. It was so light and airy and crisp and sweet I have absolutely no words to say about this place that are negative! As soon as the sun sets, it gets a little bit busier and the restaurant gets a lot louder. But it is a place to just have fun and relax. Every time me and my friend go, we are literally in there for hours just chatting and catching up, and this is one of our go to spots! When we don't know where to go, we go here. And since it's in one Paseo, it makes it even better because we get to walk around, look at the shops let our food digest, and everything about this area is beautiful! You don't have to worry about parking, because every time we go on the weekend and it's totally fine. My favorite bruschetta on the menu was the pistachio and date, there was also a prosciutto, a traditional bruschetta that had bacon on it, and the Apple One is really good as well. Then for the charcuterie, they had this whipped feta that was so creamy so light so fresh! Needless to say, I will be coming back here 1 million times. read more

Got the grilled cheese with tomato soup. Flavor-wise, everything was totally fine. Comforting, familiar, no complaints there. But for the price, it felt... ambitious. This is not a "leave full and satisfied" kind of place. It's more of a "snack and vibes" situation. The indoor space is pretty tight. We were seated near the bar, and at one point got lightly splashed with water while the bartender was doing their thing. They came over and assured us it was "clean water," which I guess is meant to be comforting, but still not exactly the experience I was hoping for. No comp, no big deal made of it, just... vibes. The staff skewed young and energetic, which is fine, but overall I think this place might just not be for me. I'm not sure I'm sold on the gimmick, and I don't think I'm cool enough for this restaurant to fully land. Not bad food, not terrible service, just not a place I'd go out of my way to return to. Three stars feels right. read more

Located in One Paseo (mall), Del Mar Heights area. We came for lunch. I give it a 3.5 out of 5. I probably wouldn't come back due to the fact the menu is limited and I didn't enjoy my dish. Pros: Free parking Friendly staff Indoor and outdoor dining Modern/new decor Allowed individual checks Cons: Limited menu Both of us had chicken (different dishes) and it tasted rubbery/unpleasant texture. I honestly didn't enjoy it. Staff could benefit from wearing uniforms/consistent clothing. $19 for a bowl (plus tip) Took a while for wait staff to return for us to pay Helpful? read more

I love postino and the del mar location is really nice. They are located in the one paseo shopping district. They have a good amount of both indoor and outdoor seating. We came for drinks before 5 and was sad to see the prices increased to $7 instead of the $6 it used to be. Our waitress said it was changed for all of California back in May. That being said this place is still great. I got a pinot noir but was able to try a couple before I committed to a glass. My partner got the cab sauv and liked his. Service is so friendly and they were very nice to my pup. Love that they're so pet friendly. read more

Updating my review: so postino Del Mar has been open for a while now. Things are still going well over there. They did raise their happy hour (until 5 everyday) prices from $6 to $7 for wine and small pitchers of beer which I think is a steal - especially for the beers. They also have a bottle of wine and a board of bruschetta for $30 on Monday and Tuesday after 8... They raised the price on that too but it's still a solid deal. I went last night for the board and bottle deal. it seemed like they lowered the volume of the music which is a lot better. Also. The wine club is pretty good. You get a comp glass of wine monthly (wish it was two) and other perks... And they do let you swap out wines in the quarterly shipment. Cool spot read more

Great happy hour deals! We came and got the shrimp scampi, olives, nick's board, and the bruschetta board with brie apple and fig, smoked salmon and pesto, sweet and spicy pepper jam with goat cheese, burrata bacon arugula and tomato. The scampi and olives I would skip next time, the scampi was okay and the olives weren't pitted (more of a personal preference since it made it hard to chat at the table). The bruschettas were all delicious and the smoked salmon with pesto and sweet and spicy pepper jam with goat cheese were both my favorite. The boards were great to share and they also have a great happy hour deal on wine and beer! They even let me try a wine before committing to a glass, which I really appreciated. Definitely will be back to try more wine and boards! read more
