Roma Norte comes from the team behind Puesto and Marisi, taking its name and inspiration from Mexico City's Roma Norte neighborhood. It sits on West Harbor Drive in San Diego's Marina district, pairing that Mexico City energy with a bar program built around craft cocktails and a curated spirit selection.
Regulars describe the space as intimate and elegant, the kind of find that still reads as a discovery in a crowded San Diego dining scene. Service comes up often in the same breath — attentive, hospitality-forward, whether it's two people at the bar or a larger private gathering.
San Diego Magazine named Roma Norte to its Best of 2025 list, and the James Beard Foundation named it a semifinalist for Best New Bar in 2025.
