About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
Beeside Balcony is a hidden gem in old Del Mar, CA with a relaxed seaside chic décor where guests enjoy global mediterranean cuisine and ocean views from the covered outside balcony.

A third generation chef of Spanish and Italian descent, and hailing form Paris, France, Christophe's restaurant career began at 17 in the kitchen of his father's restaurant in Pasadena when they first emigrated to the USA. Upon returning to southern California in 2011, Christophe spent 8 years as the managing partner of Eddie V's Prime Seafood in La Jolla. Here he deepened his knowledge of sourcing and cooking the freshest seafood available, while delivering world class service. The laid back coastal vibe of Del Mar, combined with the attention to detail from Christophe's fine dining background, infuses Beeside Balcony with an easy elegance that elevates any gathering, and makes the perfect backdrop to showcase his global mediterranean menu.

    Enjoyed twice recently with guests from out of town. Started with this both times: Trio of dips ($17), delicious fresh pita bread with three different dips: artichoke hummus, tzatziki, and spicy htipiti. Other dishes included Caesar salad, $16, tasty Caesar dressing with olives and anchovies. Scallops, $43, with a cauliflower purée, chorizo, almonds, and a dash of truffle oil. Mussels Espanola, $26, in a tomato sauce, with chorizo, white wine, garlic, and toast. Octopus ceviche ($18), slightly spicy, could use a little more octopus. Large roasted beet salad ($17); Denver Steak ($36 for 8 oz) good cut, in a chimichurri sauce with addictive rosemary fries; Bee-Youtiful Bowl ($26.00) large portion, tempura tofu, arugula, quinoa, brussels sprouts, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, avocado, lemon vinaigrette. Also, Branzino Piccate, $44, a roasted whole fish and a lemon, caper, butter sauce. Incredibly moist and flavorful. Bolognese, $29, lamb, and beef in a tomato Ragu, and with pasta, pasta shells, light spices, and Parmesan cheese. A creative array of wines by the glass, from $9 to $21. Corkage $25. Excellent service, including great bussing service and water refills.

    This was a very nice and calm place. The view was nice. I wasn’t too thrilled with their octopus because it was sliced up but I really did enjoy their mussels in white wine. The oysters were really good too! And their drinks did not disappoint.
