A.R. Valentien

The Lodge's signature restaurant, A.R. Valentien, features fresh, innovative California cuisine served in a breathtaking setting overlooking the Torrey Pines Golf Course and Pacific Ocean coastline. Executive Chef Kelli Crosson uses only the best local provisions, and the menu changes daily depending on what's offered at local farmers' markets, as well as from other local growers, ranchers and fishermen. The restaurant's wine list features California wines exclusively, including a variety of boutique wineries from throughout the state. Established in 2001. A.R. Valentien takes its name from Albert Robert Valentien, an early 20th-century Impressionist and one of San Diego's greatest artists. The restaurant features one of the largest collections of his early works in ceramics, watercolors, and oils. Like The Lodge itself, the 90-seat restaurant is a tribute to Southern California heritage and Craftsman architecture, as well as an elegant setting for intimate dining. Business owner infor
