A must-stop for sunset dinner. We wanted to try everything. The waitress was exceptional. She even had the kitchen spilt our shared meal of lobster mac and cheese into two plates. Just look at the food!
Incredible food with a view to match.
The waiter (Scotty) had great knowledge of the menus and was brilliant at talking us through it, recommending portion sizes and couldn't have been better throughout the evening.
Highly recommend, I would definitely go back if I got the chance.
We ordered bone-in ribeye steak each cooked perfectly as requested (medium rare). The sides (mashed potato, baked potato, mushroom) were delicious. Most of all, the service, view, and ambiance were beyond amazing. Our servers really paid attention to details making our experience (birthday) memorable.
Very good. Called last minute and they were able to accommodate us. They were able to seat us early and the service was good. Bread is fantastic. Steak medallions with crab were good. View was great.
Treated my mom to a special dinner. Our last minute reservation was easy to make online. Parking was easy. Our server, Scotty, was friendly and attentive. We ordered oysters and Scotty shared we weren't limited to 6 or 12, so we ordered 8. Our meals came out in a timely manner. Steaks were cooked to how we liked, although we thought the side of brussel sprouts to be the highlight of our meal. We weren't tempted by anything on the dessert menu, but we'll definitely come back for the oysters and brussel sprouts.
While we have experienced many of the steakhouses or bistros in San Diego, our visit to Island Prime this time was our first. We made reservations ahead and knew that the price point had four $$$$. While this implies a higher end price point, it also often suggests quality. (Not always).
For our dining experience, we did find Island Prime to be pricey, but given the service, presentation, staff performance, and the meal (the quality part) the overall experience was worth the price.
We enjoyed the very attentive service by all members of the staff. My compliments to the management for your training.
We plan on returning.
I would definitely go back to this place. Food was great and the bread and butter they served in the beginning were mouthwatering delicious. I ordered the catch of the day (fish) and it was cooked in perfection. My girl ordered a seared tuna and she said it’s a little bit too much rice but it was great.
First of all. I should let you know that I almost never give five stars for anything. I went to this great restaurant this Saturday for my wedding anniversary with my wife. Even with reservations, we did have to wait a half an hour before being seated. That being said, we did request a window seat. I would highly recommend that you do this in advance because the views are great. We went at sunset and were able to catch a nice sunset view. Be service. There is excellent. And The food was great. My wife ordered a lobster. And I ordered the fillet trio. It was cooked excellent. I would highly recommend that you get their banana brownie. It is almost as good as a souffle. Parking is terrible. You will have to valet. However, the valet service is excellent. Overall a great restaurant. I have no regrets. I would let you know that I don't mind paying extra at the nice restaurant. And one of my biggest disappointments usually is the service. I had excellent service there and I would highly recommend this place with the caveats that I mentioned above.
You definitely need a reservation to eat here on the weekends.
Our waitress was nothing short of amazing. We ordered our full meal at one time and she paced our food very well. I never felt rushed, and she checked on us quite a few times. Plus, I loved that she waived the corkage fee.
The food left nothing to be desired. I enjoyed all the dishes we ordered. They have a great variety on their menu. If we are ever back in the area, this is somewhere I would love to return to. The food is priced very well for the quality of food they are serving.
This is one of my favorite steakhouses in San Diego. This place defines dinner and a view - great environment/ambiance. Very intimate and romantic and best of all - food is incredibly delicious. Highly recommend!
