The 3rd Corner Wine Shop & Bistro 2265 Bacon Street, San Diego, CA 92107

"We had a wonderful evening, celebrating my father-in-law's 87th birthday. The Seefood Rossoto was amazing & the scallots are always perfectly cooked. Our server, Michael, was friendly & knowledgeable about the menu items. I highly recommend for a special occasion or casual dinner."

"Had the short ribs and the chicken sandwich. Wife says short ribs are the best she's ever had. Meanwhile, the chicken sandwich was basically flavorless. The chicken had no flavor it was the strangest thing. All you could taste was some pesto. Wine selection seems very vast and impressive and affordable. Will go again but not for the sandwich."

"Want some fun recommendations for wine from a knowledgeable hostess? The last time I was here was pre COVID, when there was a parking lot and no weird, noisy, near death experience car circle. Out hostess showed us some wines. I was over excited and decided quickly instead of listening to more options. Our first Italian chianti was not a favorite and the second bottle was better. We had a bday dinner here, friendly folks brought out a cookie and delicious ice cream for dessert with a candle on it. One friend was a bit disappointed that the meat and cheese plate (delicious warm bread and great spread!) was not explained when it came out, she said they did before COVID, and that she had to send the salad back because the dressing wasn't on the side like she asked. (If you take half home, if dressing is on it, it will be soggy.) The other friend said the braised beef was cool on the inside. My salmon with potato and onion pancake was very hot and so we traded. If you go at night, bring a jacket. They have heaters for every two tables. There are about five spots in the front. The rest is street parking. It was hard to find. We hiked for about five blocks. We made reservations. I've never tried some of the seafood or duck options, but maybe I will next time!"

"Came in at 9p after a long travel day as our Airbnb host recommended 3rd Corner. Absolutely amazing dinner, seafood risotto and spicy sausage penne with the seasonal red &white wines. Service was fantastic and the perfect place to wind down."

"Amazing. Definitely in our top 10 in our experience of restaurants in the US. The duck comfit was superb, never had better, and the wine choice was international. Competes with any restaurant in Europe that we have visited. It's a must try."
