- NNatthanSan Diego •2 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoI took my girlfriend here for Valentines day and the whole experience overall was amazing. They were gonna sit us on the bottom floor for our reservation, but we asked if they could sit us on the top floor, and even though it was Valentines Night and they we're BOOKED they still made it work for us, and throughout the rest of our time there the service was amazing. The food was definitely 5 star if not better and had no regrets. It was a nice romantic vibe and setting, would definitely recommend this place, in my opinion one of the best in Downtown.More infoRustic Root - GaslampPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.5
- HHannahSan Diego •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoMy boyfriend and I came for an early Valentine’s Day dinner and we got a sangria and Old fashioneds which were great!!The food was AMAZING. The Parker house rolls, the mussels, the steaks 🤌🏼 The only negative thing I have to say is that because we had a later reservation (10:00) we felt pretty rushed to order our food, thus feeling rushed to leave. It didn’t negatively affect our experience too much because the food was so bomb but definitely expected a higher level of service (minus the bussers and food runners who were friendly and great).More infoCowboy StarPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Downtown•4.8

- AAlexVIPSan Diego •5 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoI had the pleasure of dining at Grant Grill in San Diego, and the experience was elevated by the exceptional service provided by Samuel. From the moment we were seated, he was attentive, professional, and genuinely friendly. Samuel’s knowledge of the menu was impressive—he provided thoughtful recommendations that perfectly suited our tastes. Our wine was perfectly paired and he ensured that each course arrived at just the right time. What stood out the most was his ability to balance professionalism with warmth, making us feel truly welcomed. It’s rare to find a server who combines efficiency, attentiveness, and a personal touch so seamlessly. Samuel exemplifies top-tier hospitality, and I highly recommend requesting him for an outstanding dining experience at Grant Grill! Thank you, Samuel, for making our meal memorable—we’ll definitely be back!More infoGrant GrillPrice: Expensive• Californian• Downtown•4.6
- JJohnVIPSan Diego •115 reviews5.0Dined on 8 Feb 2025This was our first visit and we had a great date night dinner. We started with some caviar which was nicely presented. After that we had a lobster pasta and a bone-in filet mignon. Everything was delicious. We enjoyed a nice bottle of wine with our meal. The service was beyond excellent and we were truly welcomed. We cannot wait to return. We highly recommend Greystone for pleasure or business meals, special occasion or just an ordinary night out.More infoGreystone Prime Steakhouse & SeafoodPrice: Expensive• Steak• Downtown•4
