Candela's On The Bay

Coronado

Mexican Restaurant

$$$$

Candelas On The Bay styles itself culinarily after Mexico City, but it's hard to escape thoughts of San Diego when you're surrounded by such impactful views of her skyline. If you can tear yourself away from window gazing, a menu of elevated, seafood-heavy Mexican dishes resituates you farther South via zingy ceviches, and a mahi mahi stuffed with pepperjack cheese, in addition to requisite fajitas and tacos. Brunch buffets are best on either of the two open-air terraces.
