Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Torrey Pines

Incredible wood fire cooked steaks!!! The center cut filet was cooked and crusted to perfection! Prime ribeye was flavorful and cut great. Pizza was crispy, sauced perfect, and cheese forward, best Roma style I’ve had outside Italia!!! Major recommendation for Amalfi Llama, a unique blending of Patagonian & traditional Italian cuisine!!!

The patio was lovely at Christmastime this year. Poinsettias growing in the garden around the giant tree (magnolia I think), and the heaters made it nice and warm. Outside is usually quieter; we had a table of 20 out there while we were eating, but it wasn't bad; inside it would have been awful to sit next to a rowdy bunch of ladies, but this was actually not too loud. Food as always was delicious. Veal piccata, papperdalle with shrimp, and cavatappi, all served hot and tasty.

Had a wonderful experience. Service was outstanding and the food was great.

Great atmosphere and very festive environment to be in. Had fun Christmas decor and great customer service. The food is delish, my favorite was the mushroom risotto with pancetta is a must! The food comes out very hot and warm just to my liking. No one likes cold food and this place just knows how to keep the food steaming from oven to table. I have gone a couple of times already, making a reservation was easy. 

Outstanding dinner & service We shared 16oz filet mignon served family style & the lobster which was as the appetizer but we had both served family style together, as a side we had the potatoes sliced. It was all excellent. Abigail our server was very attentive to all our requests & service was perfect. You will never go wrong having dinner at Steak 48.
