Herb & Wood

An icon in San Diego, Chef Brian Malarkey’s Herb & Wood’s is timeless yet approachable, focusing on rustic, wood-fired dishes, celebrating humble ingredients such as carrots, beets, and chicken, and incorporating Mediterranean flavors with a California ethos of seasonality and sustainability.

Designed by Chris Puffer, our interior invites guests in with an almost European charm while somehow feeling perfectly at home in Southern California. An eclectic study of contrasts, our space evokes the dual persona of the Gilded Age: lavish sophistication set against industrial simplicity.
