About Starlite San Diego

Located on an unassuming street corner next to the freeway in Little Italy, Starlite restaurant delivers a stellar dining experience, both literally and figuratively.

Inside are three separate dining areas, each one an entirely unique experience and ambiance from star studded skies, to jungle patio, to a glamorous waterfall surrounded by mirrored tiles. You would have to be on another level of curmudgeon to not be impressed by Starlite.

The decor feels like the main attraction (let’s be real, it is), but the food does not fall short. The menu matches the elegance of the decor, from shared plates like wagyu and local yellowtail tartare, or honey gochujang carrots, to mains like bison short ribs in a cabernet reduction, or jidori chicken, and desserts like a honey cake. Wine and cocktails are elevated like everything else, and well worth it – try the Beretta for a rye whiskey drink, or Broken Meanings for gin lovers.
