    Devin was a great waiter! Explained everything, as it was our first time, very knowledgeable on the menu and how we should go about it as we had a larger group. Getting the full experience was what we wanted and we were able to do that. Everything was fresh and delicious. We got a cheese he recommended and it was a bit strong for us, had wine in it, so he took it back and gave us a new one. Overall a wonderful experience that I will continue to recommend.

    We were in San Diego from out of town and celebrated my birthday here with several friends. Service was lovely and everyone's food was delicious. They even brought dessert with a candle unprompted. Would definitely return.

    Great place to catch a bite to eat with drinks before seeing a show at the Civic Center. Really appreciate the additional discount and it's a close walk. It can be quite loud in there though, and lots of hotel guests have kids which just screamed non-stop... Not the issue of the hotel though.

    We had the pleasure of dining here on Christmas Eve. It was a beautiful 4-course menu including an amuse Bouche, a choice between two salads, four entrees and two desserts. The service was absolutely on point! Great attention to detail and the server assistants were fabulous too. The food runner was lovely and explained each course. The food was absolutely delicious. By far our best meal in San Diego. Thank you all!
