Today, my family and I went downtown to the Jacobs Music Center for a symphony concert. After an incredible performance, we decided to have dinner at STK to continue the celebration, as it was also our son's birthday.
Upon arrival, we were promptly guided to our reserved table, which was already set and waiting for us. The staff was attentive from the start, ensuring we had water and everything we needed. Our waiter, Nick, warmly welcomed us, inquired about any food allergies, and acknowledged our special occasion. He quickly brought our drinks, and we placed our dinner orders.
The house-made bread was amazing, and our entrees arrived in a timely manner, perfectly prepared and delicious. While we waited, Yaya, the manager, came by to check on us, ensuring we were comfortable, confirming any food allergies, and acknowledging our celebration.
We’ve been to other STK locations, but the San Diego restaurant stands out above the rest. The food was fantastic, but what truly made our experience exceptional was the outstanding service. Nick and Yaya went above and beyond, making us feel as if we were dining at a family-owned restaurant rather than a chain.
For the grand finale, they surprised us with sparkling candles and a special birthday dessert for our son—an unforgettable touch!
A big applause to Nick and Yaya for their incredible hospitality. We will definitely be returning!

We were set promptly for my wife’s birthday, the hostess said happy birthday and set us in our seats. The server was clearly not interested in helping us. He talked fast, barely was seen, checked on us once, forgot our bread and lastly he took part in two other birthday celebrations but forgot ours. The food and ambience was nice, but the service made it so that we will never be back.

Dinner on a Saturday night. Restaurant was busy but didn't feel overcrowded or noisy. Ambiance was upscale and modern, but comforable. Prices were a bit high, so would recommend only for those with thick wallets, unlimited expense accounts or a special occasion. However, quality of food was excellent. Surprised by the number of versions of steak one can order here. Service was equally excellent. Seated right away, and our server visited our table the perfect number of times. Not too often, not too scarce. Had a great time. Nice place.
