    What a fantastic experience. The food is exquisite and we had a little bit of everything. Octopus, steak tartar, chicken scallops, New York strip, Mac and cheese, organic vegetables plus dessert. Just a foray of food, all of which was wonderful. I am usually not a fan of French food but this place is so much more. Here the food is the star and it doesn't matter what you order. Everything is exceptional. I have dined in San Diego since 1978, The Smoking Goat is one of the best.

    Always a great burger. Love to come here the night before a big flight — have a nice glass of wine, a burger. It’s always cooked perfectly and delicious. Service was gracious. Everything was great. Look forward to my next trip through here.
