We now have four new restaurants for dining along the San Diego Bay offering dining options to please everyone’s palate – from fresh seafood and authentic Mexican to pub fare, coffee, and gelato; not to mention first-rate views of San Diego Bay and free public access to enjoy those views!

Portside Pier is an over-the-water dining complex that has been years in the making. It now features four restaurants — Brigantine on the Bay, Miguel’s Cocina, Ketch Grill & Taps and Portside Coffee & Gelato.

The Brigantine has been serving San Diego for nearly 50 years and has a proven track record as a strong operator that has redeveloped and rebranded underperforming restaurant locations.

The restaurants opened amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The design of the restaurants has plenty of outdoor space to seat about 500 people, with all social distancing guidelines in place. The complex has capacity for about 1,000 people, once pandemic restrictions are lifted.

Portside Pier is the first of several projects along the waterfront, to improve and update the Embarcadero.
