- AAaronSan Diego •13 reviews4.0Dined 1 day agoWe enjoyed our Christmas Eve dinner here. We were warmly greeted by someone who, as it turns out, used to live not far from where we live in Southern CA. It was a nice connection to make. Our appetizer was the shishito peppers, which had a really nice garlic sauce. My wife had the salmon entree, which had a nice crispiness on the outside and was perfectly cooked. My prime rib was also perfectly cooked - very tender. For dessert we had the strawberry fig tart - delicious. If we lived in the area this is definitely a place we visit regularly.More infoThe Oak GrillPrice: Expensive• Bistro• San Luis Obispo•4.2
- CChristopherVIPGreater Boston •19 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWonderful Xmas Eve celebration Ambiance from lobby employs greetings to host & of course our wauter Thomas was extremely professional attentive & very personalized service. He even took his time helping us take family photo!! A heater was provided without question as some restaurants do not have enough heaters; we were thrilled as we would have had to leave as it was too cold on balcony without it & therefore everything was perfect, as usual. Delicious nachos, fried chicken & “Craft cocktails” were superior! Thank you & merry Christmas!!More infoSea VenturePrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Pismo Beach•4.6
