These dishes embody everything that Serea is known for, and you can’t go wrong when you choose any of them for your meal.
SEREA’S WOOD GRILLED SEAFOOD
Chef Jojo Ruis is a fan of letting the natural flavors of seafood come through in a dish – he’s noted, “In San Diego we have such incredible access to some of the best seafood, produce and meats in the country…we’re going to let the beauty of the ingredients do the talking.” And that’s just what he’s done with the wood grilled options on our menu. These fish and lobster selections are carefully grilled over wood for a flavor that enhances their natural taste, rather than masking it. This makes for a special, delicious dish.
We offer a Pacifico Striped Bass, “Huachinango” Red Snapper, San Diego Rockfish, and Lobster, all prepared over a wood grill. The rockfish and red snapper are both from California waters, and the rockfish is caught right here in San Diego – it couldn’t be any fresher. The striped bass comes from Ensenada, Mexico, and the lobster is caught in Maine, the lobster capital of the country. When you dine at Serea, you’ll know exactly where your seafood comes from. It’s just one of the ways that we focus on providing sustainable, responsibly caught seafoods, and ensuring that you’re getting the best quality ingredients available.
