Menu
The bar at NINE-TEN is the popular gathering place where the “who’s who” of La Jolla convenes daily to enjoy an array of imaginative hand-crafted, cocktails, paired with seasonal food offerings. A centrally-positioned flat-panel television provides up-to-date news information and sporting events. And our “Whim of the Bartender” program, featuring a new hand-crafted, specialty cocktail every week, is not to be missed!
