You don’t need to cross the Pacific to get a taste of Hawaii. Duke’s La Jolla is San Diego’s island-inspired home, honoring the Ambassador of Aloha, Duke Kahanamoku, with coastal cuisine of Hawaii, craft cocktails and a genuine spirit of aloha. It’s the same authentic hospitality and panoramic ocean view that you’ll find at all of the California and Hawaii Duke’s restaurants, paying tribute to the Duke and welcoming you to celebrate life like the legend himself.

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Duke's La Jolla offers stunning ocean views, "delicious food," and "awesome service." It's a perfect spot for celebrations or casual dining, especially with favorites like the crab cake Benedict and Hula Pie. While some diners noted reservation hiccups and varied service experiences, the Hawaiian-inspired menu and "breathtaking views" make it a must-visit.
