San Diego Magazine's Happy Half Hour

#356 This week on Happy Half Hour, Randy Smerik, co-founder of Solare Ristorante, shares how he walked away from the high-stakes world of tech and big data to run one of San Diego’s best Italian spots with his two sons. Randy dishes on the trials of building a restaurant in Liberty Station—back when it was just a collection of chain stores—and how Solare has since become a Michelin-recognized favorite, known for its 3,500-bottle Italian wine cellar, top-tier service, and Executive Chef Denise Grande’s regionally inspired cuisine.
