    The food is top notch, no doubt about it. Glad the reputation of their AZ parent carried on to CA. The only thing is that the place is very noisy. There are some areas of the restaurant that are quieter. Sit away from bar area.

    This was my third time here, last two times were outstanding. The food as always was excellent. The service attentive but the waiter just had a weird attitude. Maybe an off night.

    Our sever Pat was fantastic and very attentive. All in all a wonderful experience, and we will continue to go to this restaurant. Food is amazing, but you better be ready to eat, because portions are large.

    We’ve been to Steak 48 a few times now, but each time the whole experience goes down hill. Our server seemed scrabbled because she has a very large party that sat next to us. She ended up taking our order then having to take the large table’s order immediately after so we waited a while for our food. She didn’t check on our food quality until everyone was done. Our steaks were rare and cold in the center, we ordered medium (good thing we could cook them a bit more on the plate). The table next to us were extremely loud. It was 20 guys who had been golfing all day. We were out for a nice family dinner and couldn’t hear our conversation, but could hear the guys conversation! As a local Del Mar resident, we were excited by steak 48, but seeing how the quality keeps going down each time we go, it won’t be on our list of local restaurants for long.

    Once again, Steak48 hit it out of the park. With the top-notch service from Brian and his recommendation for the 14 oz gold plus charred strip steak, I can honestly say it’s one of the best steaks I’ve ever had. The meal was perfectly timed and prepared to perfection. We ended the night with key lime pie and their signature butter cake, each crafted to an unforgettable taste. This is definitely San Diego’s best restaurant.

    Food was oustanding and our server was personable. We had the filet mignon, scallops, potatoes au gratin, and the Napa salad. We got the Carmel cookie cake for dessert with chocolate ice cream instead of vanilla, it was delicious. Could not have asked for a better anniversary dinner.

    The service and food were excellent. The only small nit was the hot plate slightly overcooked my steak.
