Raised by Wolves

“An excellent speakeasy. The entrance is grand, you take seat on chairs around a fire place and it does 180 turn. You discover this beautiful bar. The bar tenders have a great knowledge to suggest what you need. Cocktails are mouth watering and innovative. Don’t miss this spot when you visit San Diego. Highly highly recommend 🤘”

“One of the most unique bar experiences I’ve ever had! From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is unlike anything else creative, elegant, and full of character. Every detail is thoughtfully designed, making the place feel like a hidden gem. The cocktails are expertly crafted, the service is outstanding, and the entire experience feels special from start to finish. Whether you’re visiting San Diego or you’re a local looking for something different, Raised by Wolves is absolutely worth a visit. A truly memorable experience that stands out from the typical bar scene.”

“Absolutely beautiful French Renaissance interior, enter through a seated rotating fireplace, once inside lots of seating at a 360 degree round bar and couch and chair seating for larger groups. Expert bartenders making classic cocktails, beer and wine available also.. The best "old fashions" and Nigroni's I've ever tasted, and I'm fussy about perfection in my cocktails.. Somewhat pricey but worth it..”

“What a fun experience and great time we had! So we made reservations, but since some people in our party arrived a little over a half hour late, I was certain we would have to forfeit our spot. Well the store manager was super nice and willing to work with us until our whole party arrived, no problem. They were fine with us touring around the front of the store before we were all grouped together and were able to grab an area to sit as soon as we were all able. It was a nice experience being able to enjoy the festive decorations and such. I will be going back very soon when I go back out there for work. So many people have tried to describe how cool it is stepping inside back in time so I won’t need to…Honestly the people were superb and I recommend it highly due to their staff alone, super friendly. The drinks were great, as expected, but it was a really nice experience and a lot to see if you have some extra time… like some of us did!”

“Atmosphere: 9/10 Located in a popular shopping mall area, easy to find and surprisingly immersive once inside. The space is vibrant, stylish, and dim, with a central backbar that’s well stocked and visually strong. Music volume is pleasant and works for conversation. Seating is a major plus here—plenty of bar seats and booths, making the room functional even when busy. Drinks: 7.5/10 Recommendation: Island Old Fashioned, Ramos Gin Fizz Menu is nicely designed, good material quality, and clearly indicates glass shapes. Drink selection is solid. Execution is hit or miss—some drinks land, others feel less sophisticated than expected. Coasters are provided. Glassware is average, garnish is basic, and overall presentation is normal. Service: 6/10 Water is provided only on request. Team friendliness is average. Professionalism is good—the fact that the bar can execute a proper Ramos Gin Fizz (one of the clearest tests of classic cocktail technique) earns real credit. Attentiveness could be better. Reservations are recommended. Prices are slightly above average.”
