- MMary bLos Angeles •14 reviews4.0Dined 1 day agoWe went to the Thanksgiving buffet with a reservation. An officious security guard greeted waiting guests at the entrance and argued with a family whose kid had to go to the bathroom. Not a great first impression. The outdoor patio is the place to sit if there’s a crowd, and there was. The buffet was elbow to elbow in the buffet area, which was just too small a space for the number of people. The food tasted good, was fresh and plentiful. Highlights were the sushi, squash soup, seafood and dessert bar. Servers brought juice, coffee and champagne. I’d return here to lunch or another meal with table service.More info94th Aero Squadron - San DiegoPrice: Expensive• American• Kearny Mesa•4.3
- PpatrickSan Diego •14 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoOur Server JC was the ABSOLUTE BEST!! She was attentive to our needs without having to "Hover" over and around our table. She was quick to notice if we needed anything or was seeking her assistance. Her knowledge of the food and the menu were second to none and she had a great personality and was just AMAZINGLY friendly!!! She alone made my family's Thanksgiving meal the BEST Thanksgiving meal we have ever had, and that is NOT a lie!! The food was great, the serving area was clean and the traffic around the serving trays was light, and expected for a Thanksgiving buffet, but overall everything was AMAZING!!! Thank you to the staff at The Butcher Shop, but mainly Thank you to our friendly and pleasant server, JC!!!More infoButcher Shop Steakhouse - San DiegoPrice: Expensive• Steak• Kearny Mesa•4.5
- JJessicaSan Francisco Bay Area •2 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoThe ambiance here is so unique and beautiful! Airy, romantic, stylish and peaceful. And they let us bring our puppy. The food is simple but tasty and the value is one of the best in the city! We have been many times and will continue to come for brunch OR dinner! Today I loved the chai latte and white bean shakshuka. I always bring out of town guests to show it off.More infoMadisonPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• University Heights•4.5
- AAndrewvipSan Diego •3 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoAbsolutely love eating here. It is high quality sushi at a great price. The service is amazing and there is a fun atmosphere. Great for all occasions. I really enjoy sitting at the bar but there are also tables there. While eating at the bar you get to interract with the chefs which makes it special. It is one of the better sushi spots in San Diego. The quality and service reminds me of Soichi. You will not be dissapointed.More infoHarmony Cuisine 2B1Price: Very Expensive• Japanese• Kearny Mesa•4.9
