The service was wonderful. You do not feel rushed to get out. Everyone loved what they ordered. The appetizers were good. It's a little Hidden Gem in San Diego.

My wife and I had the 3 course Prix Fix (Caesar salad, Filet Mignon and Creme Brûlée). The only issue was they did not have Bernaise sauce, however the bacon jam sauce was excellent. Mine was medium rare and absolutely perfect, as was my wife's at medium, and she had the shallot butter on her Filet. Chianti was good. Our friends had the Prix Fix Filet and the husband had the Ribeye from the menu. This was their first time, and we all agreed this place is excellent, both in quality and value. Service was great. Very nice ambience. Excellent for either dinner date or business.

Theresa's is what we've been waiting for! Last night my husband and I dined with friends and had one of the best restaurant experiences we've had in years. The background noise level was reasonable, so we could actually visit without shouting. The ambience is attractive and welcoming, but casual enough for a spontaneous come-as-you-are meal. Our server, Denae, was professional and efficient; a real "pro." A perfect martini, and carefully curated wine list...very, very nice. The food? Just plain fabulous! The best caesar salad I've ever had...anywhere. The fettucine alfredo (house made pasta) with chicken had just the right amount of sauce, and the generous pieces of chicken were moist and tender. Others in our group chose the beef filet, properly seared and then cooked to order. Wow! All that on their $49. prix fixe offering! I simply cannot wait to return. *Only weak spot would be the desserts; they are apparently made off-site, and while they were "okay," they were not entirely fresh nor memorable.
