Harrah's Resort SoCal opens Tierra Y Mar

Harrah’s Resort SoCal has opened Tierra y Mar, a new Mexican restaurant at its casino resort in Funner, expanding the property’s food lineup as the company also promotes limited-time $10 room offers, according to a San Bernardino Sun report and the resort’s website. The new venue is described by Harrah’s as a Baja-inspired concept built around Mexican flavors and a tequila-focused bar program. The opening adds another full-service option at a property that already markets Hell’s Kitchen, bars and casual dining on site. The San Bernardino Sun reported on Aug. 5 that the launch coincided with a $10 room promotion at the resort. Harrah’s own dining page now lists Tierra y Mar as “NOW OPEN,” confirming the restaurant is operating. ### Where does Tierra y Mar fit inside the resort? Harrah’s Resort SoCal places Tierra y Mar among its main dining outlets, alongside Hell’s Kitchen and other food-and-beverage venues at the Funner property. (msn.com) The resort’s dining page describes it as “a new dining experience,” while a separate restaurant page says the menu draws from Baja California and other regions of Mexico. Funner, the unincorporated North San Diego County community where the resort is located, has been the center of Harrah’s broader push to market the property as a destination resort rather than only a casino. (msn.com) The resort page highlights pools, a lazy river and other amenities in addition to gaming and dining. ### What is Harrah’s saying about the menu? Tierra y Mar’s dedicated page says the restaurant “celebrates the vibrant, diverse flavors of Mexico” and takes inspiration from Baja California as well as regions throughout the country. (harrahssocal.com) Harrah’s also says some menu items from ’Ritas Cantina, a prior Mexican concept at the property, will carry over into the new restaurant. A menu PDF posted by the resort shows margaritas, tequila-based cocktails, Mexican lager and seafood-leaning dishes among the offerings. (harrahssocal.com) A separate menu file says the restaurant’s name reflects flavors ranging “from the mountains around Mexico City to Baja’s Sea of Cortez.” ### When did the restaurant open? A July 22 local report said Tierra y Mar opened that day in the space formerly occupied by Salt & Fin at Harrah’s Resort Southern California. (harrahssocal.com) Harrah’s current site does not state the exact opening date on the main restaurant page, but it does show the venue as open now. The San Bernardino Sun’s Aug. 5 report framed the opening as part of a broader resort push that included discounted room pricing. (files.harrahssocal.com) Because the Sun article is largely paywalled in search results, the clearest verifiable details available publicly are the restaurant name, concept, location and the resort’s own confirmation that the venue is open. (hoodline.com) ### What else does the opening tell guests planning a visit? Harrah’s beverage menu for Tierra y Mar lists house margaritas at $14 and a premium “Tierra Tower” upgrade at $50, alongside tequila cocktails and Mexican beer. Those posted prices suggest the restaurant is positioned as an upscale but not ultra-luxury addition to the property’s dining mix. (msn.com) The resort’s room promotion was reported separately by local media as a limited-time offer tied to midweek stays. Harrah’s and local coverage indicate guests looking for the new restaurant can now find it through the resort’s dining listings and reservation channels. ### What comes next at the property? Harrah’s Resort SoCal is currently directing guests to Tierra y Mar through its live dining page and restaurant menu pages, which now show the concept as open and available for service. (files.harrahssocal.com) The next concrete step for visitors is booking through the resort’s dining and room-offer pages, where Tierra y Mar appears alongside the property’s other operating venues.
