The Grill is a popular dining destination at The Lodge at Torrey Pines, one of Southern California's most notable resorts. A favorite place for gathering with friends and family, The Grill invites locals and visitors to lounge beside five cozy fire pits, taste local craft beers beneath an artfully designed trellis, and enjoy meals from the restaurant's custom-built wood-burning suite. The latter serves as the foundation for the slow-cooked, farm-fresh menu, including the trademark Drugstore Burger, a true San Diego classic. Whether coming together for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, The Grill's welcoming ambiance and thoughtful team promise a memorable experience for guests and an ongoing dedication to local ingredients, sound craftsmanship, and the creative California spirit.

    A great place to cap off a great day on the golf course. The atmosphere was inviting and warm and the food very good and tasty -- the staff was friendly and helpful too. All around a great place to spend an evening with family and friends.

    Very good food and excellent service. You can't beat the view although it's a little noisy which given the location isn't surprising.

    The signage to get to The Grill is awful for those of us who haven’t dined here before. Only one of our party had been there previously. She was fine, but others of us, some with hip and knee issues, wandered around and walked too much (and back again) trying to find it. You should fix that. And I don’t think it would hurt to spruce up the supermarket bag salad with a few bonus ingredients…cherry tomatoes, a slice or two of cucumber…something special/colorful. The service and burger were outstanding!

    Dear Sara, thank you for your thoughtful and detailed feedback. We always appreciate hearing from our guests. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future to enjoy our delicious menu offerings.

    Superb waiting staff and excellent menu. We had the Caesar Salad with chicken smoked in their outdoor fire. Quite delicious and substantial portion. The house made potato chips with onion dip was a tasty accompaniment. After 20 years The Grill is still as good as ever.

    Food and service were great. But it was chilly outside and they kept door open creating a cold draft inside.

    This has been my second time dining at the grill, unfortunately with the change of time We didn't get to enjoy to sunset, but that is on me. kudos to the chef for what I consider one of the best salmon dishes I ever had, Our server Lisa B recommended it and OMG was she right or was she right? my dining experience was highlighted by all attention to detail that she provided. she was extremely knowledgeable. dessert was amazing too. Thank you again for the great dining experience Lisa B, not sure what is the B for, maybe Blondie :)

    The grilled cheese is one of the best! I mistakenly thought the spaghetti had bolognese, but no: marinara. No meat. Mamahuhu (average). Even cheese didn’t help. Apple salad was decent. Fire table is nice. Drinks are average (mamahuhu). The environment is very nice however.

    Dear Jennifer, thank you for your feedback. Thank you for dining with us and for your comment about the grilled cheese. We are sorry to hear that the spaghetti was not what you expected. We hope to welcome you back soon for another great dining experience at The Grill at Torrey Pines.
