Mabel's Gone Fishing

Five days. That's how long it takes to make the popular house-smoked mackerel toast at Mabel's Gone Fishing. The process starts when fresh seafood from local fishermen is delivered to the San Diego restaurant. From there, the fish is cleaned, cured, smoked, and marinated over the week.

Dedicated to serving seasonal seafood, Mabel's Gone Fishing has become a destination restaurant, achieving Michelin Bib Gourmand status and making it on Eater's 2022 Best New Restaurant list.
