- JJohnGoldLos Angeles •4 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoThis is a wonderful outdoor patio restaurant aka “ veranda”! It overlooks a gorgeous golf course. There was quiet, live music, and a great upscale casual atmosphere. We personally loved the menu and had no problem choosing dishes for everyone. There were four of us and every single one of us enjoyed our meals. The ingredients were all fresh and perfectly prepared. A truly delicious meal! They had a small but good wine list and also they’re set up for specialty coffees. The desserts were excellent. Our server was extremely personable and attentive. The food came out pretty quickly, but we were never rushed through the evening. It felt like the perfect pace. Although some people might find the menu, pricey, I found it to be worth every penny.More infoVeranda Restaurant & Bar$$$$• Mediterranean• Poway / Rancho Bernardo•4.7

Discover Poway
A heartbeat away from the historic Gaslamp Quarter and about an hour from Disneyland, North San Diego is dotted with bars, nightclubs, cafes, craftsman cottages, and microbreweries. A little further north is Poway, an unincorporated community where all-American burgers are served fresh (never frozen!) with crispy fries and famous shakes and where seafood selections include classic calamari strips and sweet red crab. Nestled in the northern hills of San Diego, Rancho Bernardo is where you can work up an appetite playing golf and exploring rolling hills before treating yourself to carne asada, fish tacos, and other regional specialties. If you’re looking for something more exotic, savor some Turkish-Mediterranean or Greek eats, bite into a pulled-pork waffle, or build your own panini.
