With the highly anticipated launch of Communion, the new rooftop restaurant atop the Sasan building in Mission Hills, which is scheduled to begin serving customers tomorrow, San Diego’s eating scene is aiming for the stars. According to a recent EATER article, the restaurant will provide a variety of international dining options, including a vegan-friendly roasted beet “filet” and dry-aged duck breast, on a menu created by head chef Mike Moritz, who has experience at local culinary hotspots.
Communion is positioned to offer a captivating cocktail experience in addition to a variety of food options, such as ‘Yama’s Reign,’ a blend of yuzu liqueur and Japanese gin. In addition to the food, the eighth-floor location is expected to offer breathtaking vistas, which the sameEATER story describes as providing “the neighborhood its own rooftop spot for cocktails.”
With Paradis on the ground level now open and changing daily from a charming caf during the day to a European-inspired pintxo bar at night, the excitement surrounding the Sasan building’s offerings only grows. The establishment’s owner, Jacquee Renna Downing, hopes that Paradis, which seats fifty people and was created by the local business Design Perspectives, would give guests “a European sidewalk caf vibe,” according to San Diego Magazine.
A strong culinary heritage and an emphasis on teamwork are at the core of both locations. In an interview with San Diego Magazine, Downing, who once owned Pacifica Del Mar with her late husband, stated that she wanted to “bring our roots back to San Diego,” lending a personal link to the project. In the meanwhile, Downing hopes to provide a list that uses her wide-ranging wine network to convey the tale of each choice, emphasizing the food, wine, and cocktail pairings in a narrative fashion. According to Downing, the primary criterion for the list is “what tastes good,” as she told San Diego Magazine.
An Instagram photo from Sandiegomag, which captured the excitement on social media, gave a preview of what to expect by showcasing Communion’s “seafood-forward menu” and 360-degree city panorama. With pictures of the restaurant and a reference to the “restaurant in the clouds,” it raises anticipation before the official opening.
