FOR THE FINE DINER

Mister A’s is a standout fine dining restaurant with unmatched 180-degree views of San Diego’s downtown. Since opening in 1965, the team behind this now-institution has been serving French-hued American fare to locals and tourists alike. 

With stellar sunset views and specialty-crafted cocktails, you can't disappoint with a gift card for Mister A’s!

FOR THE SWEET TOOTH 

Tracy’s Real Foods provides a healthier choice for snacking, especially throughout the holiday season. Their naturally sweetened goodies are guilt-free, gluten-free, and made using whole-food ingredients whenever possible. We highly recommend Tracy’s Carrot Cake Spice and Gingerbread cookies that can be shipped to your door in time for Christmas.

They’re so good you’ll want them in your stocking too!

FOR THE MATCHA LOVER

Sometimes, all you want for Christmas is a hot cup of Matcha (don’t worry, we get it!). If this sounds like your idea of a good time, then pop by Elixir De La Lune on La Jolla Blvd. The team behind this healing foods cafe is serving up take-home matcha kits which include a locally handmade ceramic cup, Palo Santo smudge stick, and rose quartz crystal!

What more could you possibly want?

FOR THE HOLIDAY HOSTESS

Nothing says “thanks” like a bunch of beautiful blooms. From potted Poinsettias to perfectly wrapped roses, there is something for every host at Native Poppy San Diego. Swing by their store at 3009 Grape St to grab some festive flowers before your next event and give the gift of thanks this Christmas.
