Bertrand at Mister A's menu
offers a Modern American Cuisine with French and Mediterranean influences.
The award winning chef takes great pride in offering a fresh and tantalizing
menu that complements the stunning panoramic views outside of the dining
room. Although the menu changes with the season, you can rest assured that
your impression will not.
You're just a few quick minutes from downtown San Diego; take the elevator
to the top floor, you won't believe your eyes! Huge jetliners sweep past at
eye level, like nowhere else. Our beautiful city's skyline, San Diego Bay,
Balboa Park, our world famous Zoo, Coronado, Point Loma; why settle for just
an ocean view when you can see the entire city from one vantage point. And
there's nowhere else you can see a view like this both inside and outside.
Our outdoor balcony wraps around three entire sides of the building.
Once thought of as a place for just special occasions where jackets were
required, now enjoy casual elegance among friends at any time. Our staff
will welcome you like family. |

Born in rural southwest
France, Bertrand studied economics at the University of Toulouse. After
college, his studies took him to America where he made his way to the west
coast, always deriving income by waiting tables in French restaurants.
In 1984, finally on his own, Bertrand bought the property he coveted for
years: Mille Fleurs, in Rancho Santa Fe. Taking on the challenges of
offering elegant European cuisine to a relaxed city such as San Diego, his
commitment and belief in utmost freshness and quality, soon made Mille
Fleurs San Diego's premier restaurant. Mille Fleurs has attracted national
attention & awards (being named top 25 in America by Food & Wine magazine),
helping to bring San Diego's dining scene to the forefront.
"Find a “beautiful, sweeping view of the city” and “divine” New American
food and chances are “you won’t forget” this “classy” 12th floor eatery in
Bankers Hill just north of Downtown that attracts “beautiful people who like
to be seen”; yes, it’s “expensive, but worth it” and boasts both an
“accommodating” staff (“I haven’t been waited on like this since my wedding
day”) and a “premier host” in owner Bertrand Hug, the surname appropriate
for the vibe felt here."
