More about Queenstown Public House

Matt Baker and PJ Lamont, the team behind Bareback Grill in Pacific Beach, opened the restaurant, and Michael Soriano of Onairos Design did the interiors. The look mixes grandmotherly crochet touches with modern decor: New Zealand pasture scenes are painted on the front room ceiling, wire baskets of potatoes and citrus line the walls, and jasmine grows around the patio.
