Fodor's Expert Review Ki's Restaurant

Encinitas Dinner

Veggies with a view could be the subtitle for this venerable Cardiff restaurant that grew from a simple juice shack. Ki’s is well known for heart-healthy, gluten-free, vegan, locally sourced, ovo-lacto, vegetarian-friendly dishes like huevos rancheros, filling tofu scrambles, taco plates, chopped salads with feta and nuts, seasonal juice, and carrot ice-cream smoothies. From 4 to 8 pm, the menu takes a step forward with macadamia-coconut mahimahi, miso-glaze salmon, and filet mignon topped with a mushroom Cabernet sauce.
