San Diego has 13 restaurants in the Chase Sapphire Reserve® Exclusive Tables program — the curated OpenTable list where the card’s $300 annual dining credit (up to $150 from January–June and $150 from July–December) applies. The San Diego lineup across neighborhoods like Downtown, Encinitas, Little Italy, leans toward Californian, Mediterranean, Seafood, with spots like Animae, Callie Restaurant and Herb & Sea.
How to use the credit here: pick a restaurant below, book it on OpenTable (or simply walk in), and pay with your Sapphire Reserve. The statement credit posts automatically — you don’t have to make a reservation or pay through OpenTable to earn it. Each half of the $300 is use-it-or-lose-it, so it’s worth planning a meal in both the January–June and July–December windows.
The Exclusive Tables list changes over time, so confirm a restaurant is still eligible on OpenTable before you go. Below are all 13 currently-listed San Diego restaurants, with addresses, cuisines and booking links.
