Service was quick. I didn't get regular check-up but the servers were pleasant. I had the Beef Stroganoff it was delicious. Very earthy, very good. I was planning on having the Babushka Surprise, but was too full! Of all the more "upscale" stuff I had while on my trip this was what did not let me down. If I ever come back I'll definitely return! I had the Natakhtari "pear flavored" drink and it was amazing. Eating alone, eating with a date, or family i can see this being a very good restaurant for all.

This place was recommended by my son. This is Russian/ Georgian food and it WAS DELICIOUS 😋!!!!! I RECOMMEND the Lobio which is red beans with walnuts and feta cheese. I had the Golubsi cabbage beef and pork rolls with a very tasty tomato cream sauce and sour cream. And please, let me not leave out EDDIE and his gorgeous eyes. This restaurant was very quiet, warm and appealing. Service was great!! I give Pomegranate 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 's I highly recommend this place. Go on try!!😋

One of the few places that you can get quality eastern European food and drinks. While a bit pricey the quality is hard to beat.

The food is excellent. There’s a nice selection of Eastern Europe dishes. The atmosphere is great, service is fast and friendly and prices are reasonable.
Downside is parking - there’s nothing available as the street is always packed and spaces are minimal.

I had a great experience at Pomegranate. A Russian-Georgian restaurant. The service from Edwin was awesome. We had borscht, cheese boat bread (awesome), shared a stroganoff, honey cake with Turkish coffee.
When in San Diego you need to try this place if you want great food. The pomegranate martini was delicious too.

One of my favorite restaurants in San Diego. It's so unexpected. Pomegranate defied my reservations about Russian cuisine with an outstanding dining experiences. If you have never been you must try, The beet salad, flavorful soup dumplings, and options like cabbage rolls and beef stroganoff left an indelible mark.
Pomegranate is a hidden gem for those seeking an exceptional taste of Georgian Russian cuisine

So I have to say I was surprised.
I was invited to this restaurant by a friend to eat beef stroganoff and I immediately thought "yeah I like hamburger helper".
Let me tell you that the flavor far surpassed any expectations I had. I want to be clear that I have studied with foreign chefs, and I do have a well versed background in the kitchen in commercial/educational/private environments. I think that the basic dining experience of a "night out with a friend" is something that is easily expected from a place like this.
Ultimately, I have not been disappointed l. Everything has the right amount of texture to suggest that it was made by hand, and the flavor profiles have multiple qualities to enjoy and consider.
It's cultural food, that colonial Americans would likely identify with that many modern Americans may have never truly experienced.

Pomegranate is a Russian restaurant with unique decor. The first thing I noticed about the place is people have written all over the walls. The lighting is very soft with lots of seating indoors. The wait staff is very friendly. Our waitress took very good care of us. We had pierogies as an appetizer. They were very good. The filling was potato. I had the golubtsi as my main course which is beef and pork wrapped in cabbage in a tomato sauce. It was very good. I really enjoyed the tomato sauce coupled with the flavor of the meat. Portions are just right. I left the restaurant feeling satisfied. Not being familiar with Russian fare, Pomegranate gave me a great intro. Well done!

In honor of my late mother, I bestow one of the highest honors she would ever give a restaurant: Mother Linda Approved (MLA).
Exceptional food, atmosphere, and service! Bravo!
