Best Steakhouses in Cardiff By The Sea

This was our first time dinning at Flemings and we will be back! My Martini was perfectly made. We started with the calamari, this is a must! Then we had the Tomahawk Steak and lobster tails . The sides are generous portions and delicious I recommend the Espresso martini for dessert

Island Prime provided an absolutely exceptional dining experience! From the moment we walked in, the breathtaking views of the San Diego skyline set the tone for an unforgettable evening. The ambiance was both elegant and welcoming, perfect for a special dinner. The food was outstanding. Every dish was expertly prepared and beautifully presented. The filet mignon was cooked to perfection—tender and flavorful—and the lobster tail was buttery and delicious. The sides were equally impressive, with the truffle mac and cheese being a standout. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly, ensuring our glasses were always full and every need met without being intrusive. The attention to detail and personalized touches truly elevated the experience. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply want an incredible meal with a view, Island Prime is a must-visit. We can’t wait to return! Five stars, without a doubt!

We went specifically for the Chateaubriand special for 2. It came with a shared appetizer (we got the Caesar salad), the chateaubriand (sliced into 4 large pieces), 2 sides (we had the lobster Mac & cheese which had an up charge and bacon & cheese potatoes au gratin) and 2 desserts (we chose the Morton’s hot chocolate cake and the cheesecake). It was so much food that we took home some of the sides and all of the desserts. Everything was delicious!

Our yearly tradition did not disappoint! Next year, though I think I’m going to request to be in the main dining room. The music in the bar was too loud and a little hard for my mom who can’t hear well! 

We finally tried Steak 48 and it definitely lives up to the hype! Had a wonderful Christmas eve early dinner. It was a treat to sit at the bar-James, the bartender was friendly, made excellent drinks & further detailed the menu. We ordered the crisp shrimp appetizer, bone-in rib-eye, bone-in filet & roasted cauliflower. All were fantastic, cooked perfectly/as we ordered & came out sizzling hot. Quality of food is superb, as was the service and ambiance. Can’t wait to come back! Thanks, James & Steak 48!
