- CCindyVIPSan Diego •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoThe food was wonderful. My daughter had the pita Greek sandwich and I had the margarita pizza. I would highly recommend either. The Crest on the pizza was the best I’ve ever had. We went at 3 o’clock, so we’re able to order from the lunch menu And the happy hour menu. Both were reasonably priced and the food was great. The atmosphere of the restaurant was classy. Great for a date night or an evening with friends. I would highly recommend this restaurant.More infoBoujiemanaPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• Serra Mesa•4.8
- IIanSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoWe really loved the space! It had a great, almost club like atmosphere. I ordered the filet mignon, which I had to cook table side. It was brought to me on a hot stone. It came with rustic potatoes, best potatoes I ever had. My fiance ordered the chicken breast, the chicken was very bland and dry, he was pretty disappointed. Over all great experience, staff was very friendly, will come back. More infoinsideOUTPrice: Expensive• Californian• Hillcrest•4.8
- LLoisLas Vegas •47 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoThe spouse & I were visiting my daughter, who lives in San Diego. She had not been to Madison & neither had we. We all enjoyed the tomato & burrata appetizer. We also had the cioppino, Tuscan sausage rigatoni & chicken piccata; all were so good! Spouse & I had the Ibarra & The Woodsman, which were delicious. Service from Kylee excellent. We also enjoyed the music. My daughter plans to bring her roommates here.More infoMadisonPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• University Heights•4.5
- DDaveSan Diego •38 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoWe had a rough start to our dinner... right before we were sat the restaurant's system went down and we had to wait about an hour. The good news was that once it was back up and running, the place had cleared out pretty well and we were sat right away. Allison was our server and she was amazing. The star of the show was Paul, our Chef. An absolute legend of a chef and he made the evening super enjoyable. Allison kept our drinks full and checked on us frequently. What started as a rough dinner experience ended up being one of our best Benihana meals ever! Oh, and kudos to the ladies at the host station... they did a great job keeping everyone informed on the progress and handled angry customers well.More infoBenihana - San Diego, CAPrice: Moderate• Japanese• Mission Valley•4
