位於Banker's Hill​的優質季節料理餐廳

Great wine selection coupled with a knowledgable staff about the wines is always a great recipe to start dinner. I continue to vist CUCINA locations for the qualtiy and consistency.

We were only in San Diego for 24 hours, and Animae was the perfect foodie destination for our short trip. Chef Tara’s menu masterfully stays true to Filipino flavors while elevating them in a way that feels both nostalgic and exciting. Every dish was beautifully executed, and the balance of flavors was impeccable. Our server, Chenise, made the experience even more memorable. She was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable, guiding us through the menu with thoughtful recommendations. She kept the pacing and coursing of our meal just right, ensuring we could fully enjoy each dish without feeling rushed. The cocktails were another highlight - both inventive and perfectly balanced. Each drink complemented the food beautifully, and we could absolutely see ourselves coming back just to sit at the bar and work our way through the cocktail menu. From start to finish, Animae delivered on every level—food, service, and ambiance. If you’re looking for a truly special dining experience in San Diego, this is it. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town!

The staff were friendly and extremely attentive. Of course the views were amazing, but the highlight was our server.

The brunch menu is outstanding. The eggs Benedict with salmon & avocado toast are among the best.

A classic spot that is very low key. The service is very good, and the food is cooked well. We enjoy coming here on date nights and days that we want to unwind peacefully.
