RUTH'S CHRIS STEAK HOUSE REVIEWS

High end steak house serving traditional American fare. Our party did have a pescatarian and a vegan. The pescatarian was able to find options however the vegan was not able to (they ate before coming). The food was good portions and very tasty. I ordered the surf and turf. We ordered the family sized sides for the table (mashed potatoes and creamed spinach). For dessert they gave us a free cheesecake as we were there to celebrate a birthday. We also ordered the creme brulee which was also large and delicious! The server was attentive of our needs.

Went to celebrate our anniversary, and it was one of the best experiences I've ever had. Loved the service and enjoyed watching the sunset. The food was very tasty and cooked to perfection.

What a great place to celebrate our anniversary. The service was outstanding(thank you, Mary), and the steak and lobster were delicious. All to be enjoyed while looking out on the harbor.

FOGO DE CHÃO BRAZILIAN STEAKHOUSE SAN DIEGO REVIEWS

Fogo is a go definitely a cool place to eat if you like meat and alot of meat you will get. My favorite was the top sirloin that was cooked to perfection the cheese bread balls were delicious mashed potatoes were good but the cheese with honey and the cooked pineapple was the best part they were so delicious and worth the visit on it's own you should definitely give it a try.

We had a wonderful birthday dinner for my husband last night. The meat selection was delicious and so were all the offerings at the buffet bar. The service was excellent. The servers there really seemed to enjoy their job and took the time to chat and give personalized attention. Special shoutout to Daniel who gave exceptional service. I highly recommend this restaurant.

The meats were absolutely delicious. My favorite was the ribeye. Their salad bar was also impressive. Great service provided by our waitress Andrea. We will be back.

ISLAND PRIME REVIEWS

Got to go here for a gift and loved all the gluten free options. They even made us gluten free toast. The meat was so tender and I loved the 3 different 3 ounce steaks with the different toppings. Especially the crab. If we were to splurge again, we would definitely go back. And of course the view is gorgeous.

Wow! What an Amazing Experience. My Beautiful Wife and I had dinner with a couple of friends. First the Food here is Amazing. The Service impeccable. Very attentive and friendly. The Views of the Downtown skyline very beautiful. So weather you are celebrating a special occasion. Like an Anniversary, birthday or just want to have a Vvery Romantic Dinner with your Beautiful Wife, I highly recommend Island Prime.

amazing dinner. Enrique was phenomenal and had a great sense of humor and his recommendations were spot on. Food, staff, and view all 5 star.
