    What an amazing dinner experience! The attention to detail with regards to service is hard to find in a restaurant these days. Steak 48 does it!

    Steak 48 in Del Mar has the tastiest and best quality food overall of any other high end restaurant in the area. It's a family favorite, from 13 to 84 year olds!

    A fabulous restaurant so I don't want to sound picky.....however, when you order 'water, no ice with lemon' and they forget lemon it gets you off on a cautious footing. When they bring bread and no butter, it is not fab. When you ask for S&P and they forget....well you get it. Otherwise the service was very good, and everyone you walk past that works there says good evening or hello and is very friendly. The food was fantastic, however, they really push the heirloom tomato with crab and I would not order it again. The very thickly cut tomato was not ripe, there was a miniscule amount of crab, and honestly....it needed salt. Everything else was cooked to perfection and delicious. For these prices, it is these reasons I cannot give it an 'excellent', but rather just a very very good!

    Update: After my first bad review, I decided to give steak 48 another chance. They seated me late for my reservation when we came to the table they took time to take our drink order. Their shrimp was overcooked and very rubbery. Their calamari was mediocre at best. Their non-alcoholic cocktails coconut lime passionfruit was very bad. The bread is also very greasy. Their Lemon passionfruit non-alcoholic cocktail was actually very good. They overcooked the shrimp beans dish and the calamari and fried shrimp was not very good either. The steaks were not bad. Their warm butter cake dessert was good. After the second experience, I don’t think I’ll be back. I was left thoroughly disappointed.

    Felix at the bar was very attentive and friendly. Martini pricey but honestly more like two martinis. Definitely worth it!

    This is our new place to go to for celebrating our birthdays and other important events in our lives. The staff is always on top of things. JP was our waiter for the night and he had amazing recommendations, attentive, and just an overall pleasure to interact with all night. Food was delicious as always, in our opinion, it’s better than Ruth’s Chris or any other steak house we’ve been to in the past. We cannot wait to come back.
