Restaurants near Portofino Inn & Suites San Diego Hotel Circle

Food was incredible. Started with Hamachi and Crudo apps. Followed by Wagyu NY Strip and husband had the lamb leg. Side of carrots were so good. Wrapped up with the toffee date cake with black walnut ice cream. One of our favorite meals of the year. Ambience was good but a little loud and tables for two was on the small side but overall a fantastic meal and we will be back for sure.

The team there as always provided outstanding service. Very welcoming, attentive and so fun. Unfortunately the food was a little underwhelming (my chicken was dry and my friends’ side dish was cold). However, the holiday decorations were so fun and festive. Had a great evening celebrating my friend’s birthday!

Service is friendly, fast, and very thorough. Used plates, glasses, and flatware are quickly removed and replaced. The beverage and wine service are well done. The food was very good. It is a bit on the high side for what it is, but not outrageously so. And the quality of the service lives up to the restaurant's price point. My wife and I dined at Seneca on our wedding anniversary. The staff made note of that, and each person who served us wished us a happy anniversary, and the restaurant gave us champagne gratis. We would recommend Seneca to any interested diners.

Variety of food that satisfies every person. We had a group of 8 - and we had all the small plates and some good steaks.

I was so impressed with the service. We never waited for anything. I was cold, but due to Christmas decorations they could not use the heaters- without me asking they brought out a hot water bottle to help keep my legs warm. So nice. I had the pasta with the Langoustine - it was tasty. But the best part of our meal was the deconstructed tiramisu- it was delicious!! I want to go back just to get dessert!! I would definitely recommend eating here. Reservations are a must.
