Tuna Harbor

Our Tuna Harbor table puts the women and men of the sea at the forefront – celebrating the work they do in the physical place where they do it. That’s about as fresh as fish can get. Plus, the wharf where we’ll set the table has a beautifully expansive view of the San Diego Harbor. This year, we bring in a fleet of local fisher people to tell us their tales of the ocean and share their early morning catch. In addition to tuna, their F/Vs (fishing vessels) catch squid, lobster, swordfish, rockfish, sardines, mackerel, opah and urchin. Guest chef Phillip Esteban will put a Filipino spin on the sea’s bounty. You may recognize this prolific and passionate culinary entrepreneur from “Chopped” on the Food Network. On the heels of opening two new food stalls in San Diego’s Liberty Public Market this summer, Chef Phillip’s new fine dining restaurant, Well Fed, will bring the multi-textured experience of Fil-Am cuisine to his boyhood home of National City. And to our long table on the dock.
