Cusp (La Jolla) Review

We were excited to try Cusp, as it's gotten a lot of good press. We enjoyed that room before when it was Clay's.

Result: Good, not great.

Bar: Had trouble making a simple mocktail (virgin mojito). This is a standby when I'm not drinking.  I was basically getting limeade. 

No bread.

Green Salad: Tasty and light. It's farm to table, but without any real whimsy or creativity (I'm thinking of Alchemy for instance)

Soup of the Day (Turkey soup): ok

Burrata Flatbread: very tasty, and a good deal at $12

CH got jidori chicken with polenta. I thought the polenta was very tasty. He didn't enjoy the seasoning/flavor on this dish at all.

Atmosphere: nicer decor than when it was Clay's, but we went during the dark so we didn't get to enjoy the view. Older crowd (well-heeled folks our parents' age, plus some younger than us). Nice lighting.

Maybe worth a try, but it's not going on our regular rotation. Oh well!  The search for a good La Jolla dining destination continues....next stop, Seasons 52.
