Restaurants near University of California San Diego

Fantastic meal, great service, stellar views, and a wonderful Hawaiian atmosphere. This Duke’s location is just as good as our favorite one on Kauai.

Our server, Brian, was great! attentive without being overbearing. There wasn't a bite I didn't love. The extra dirty martini was the perfect amount of dirty. Ribeye well seasoned, good char, and medium rare with a nice truffle mash. My favorite was definitely the roasted burrata. Even the bread paired with it was sensational. Don't miss out on the happy hour. Prices are phenomenal and some apps half off. And since the food gives you an extra pep in your step, you can power shop knowing you can try on clothes with a little extra room for the long haul wear 😉

Despite it being Valentine’s Day “a busy and chaotic day at other restaurants”, service and food was phenomenal! 10 out of 10! This place never fails to impress me. Was sat down in less than a minute and waiter Nick took our drink order within minutes. Absolutely the best service provided by Nick and May. All the details and attention were unnoticed. Compliments to the chef for the best prefixed menu I have ever seen! Bring the mussels to the menu please that broth was exquisite. Thank you for making the best Valentines dinner date I’ve ever had.

Amazing experience overall. Our server, Hector, was very knowledgeable and provided incredible service. Would love to return the next time we are in San Diego.

The ambience was great, the service was amazing, servers and bussers were all very attentive, nice and helpful. The food was amazing and tasted so fresh, and the drinks were strong and delicious. My fiance and I came for an early valentines dinner and we will be returning for sure.
