Asked for a box because we had about half our 16oz left. Got home and realized they only gave us what was left of our sides and none of the steak.

The service here was impeccable! My boyfriend and I decided to celebrate our anniversary here and I’m glad we did. We arrived to our table with heart confetti and a card waiting for us. Our waiter, Victor, was very informed and recommended great dishes and wine. Towards the end of our meal we were surprised to receive champagne to toast and were sent home with a box of chocolate truffles! We are so glad we chose to come here to celebrate! Thank you!

C* is our go-to for any special occasion. They make the best steaks of all of San Diego - possibly of all of Southern California! This time around we were celebrating a birthday. C* service is always impeccable - everyone from the host to the waitstaff asked whose birthday it was and wished our birthday guest a happy birthday which was a sweet touch. We got the French Onion Soup to start, the best made anywhere. Also got the 40oz Porterhouse for 2 which was AMAZING - perfect amount for 2 people. Mac & Cheese side, which was a hit and the bacon was a delicious topping. Sticky Toffee Cake for dessert - also very unique and tasty. Can’t go wrong with their cocktail menu either! Our favorites include the C* Old Fashioned, Smoking Gun, and Oaxaca Old Fashioned. We’ll be back soon enough to try out some of the dessert liquors as well!

Great food. Bacon wrapped scallops were succulent. Love the brussels sprouts. And don't miss the wedge salad with chunks of real Roquefort.
