Food scene

The high end resturant in downtown La Mesa. Part of the esteemed, regional Cohn Family of restaurants, Bo-Beau has been a landmark in the Village since 2013. The french restaurant label is a bit reductive. Although you can order escargot, they also serve other varied offerings such as flavorful flatbreads, an amazing cheese burger, and a korean short rib main. The outdoor patio is delightful to enjoy the evenings while people-watching down the boulevard. This place is casual, pet friendly, and great for groups. It's simultaneously also a great date night spot with a romantic feel.

The City bus and Trolley system are very close.

The City bus is at the bottom of the hill ( 1/2 block) on La Mesa Blvd. The Trolley ( Orange Line) is about 3 blocks away located on Spring street near La Mesa Blvd. Walk down La Mesa Blvd for a quick view of the quaint 3 block town of La Mesa.
