Walls between popular grill and former Beach House restaurant to be knocked down to create super-sized facility with space for multiple events at once.
Encinitas
A proposal to combine two ocean-view buildings along south Cardiff’s Restaurant Row and create one super-sized facility with space for multiple wedding receptions has won its first set of permit approvals.
The Encinitas Planning Commission voted 3-1, with Commission Chairman Glenn O’Grady opposed and Commissioner Al Apuzzo absent, to grant the project a design review permit and a minor-use permit. Next, it’s on to the state Coastal Commission.
Pacific Coast Grill owner Stephen Goldberg, who is one of the managing partners of the Belly Up music venue in Solana Beach, is proposing to knock out the walls between his restaurant and the now-closed Beach House Restaurant and merge the two L-shaped facilities, creating one 9,388-square-foot building.
