    Great place! Came in on a Friday at 8 with no reservation looking for a romantic dinner spot, great "Beverly Hills Steakhouse" feel, but with a menu heavy on seafood, befitting a coastal vacation town. The martinis were made to my specifications, the food was perfectly prepared and the service was impeccable. Fire alarm went off disrupting dinner and they handled it great, free dessert (flaming bananas foster of course) to make up for it. I wish they had more Pacific / West Coast seafood, they had Florida Grouper, Gulf shrimp, African Lobster -- coulda done dungenous crab, local lobster, salmon, halibut, and of course tuna and yellowtail. The scallops weren't huge, but there were enough of them for a meal, and super delicious. Plenty of crab in the stuffed shrimp and awesome breadcrumbs. Best bananas foster I've ever had.

    Eddie V's is a nice place with a nice atmosphere to enjoy a lovely dinner with your significant other or family. I made reservations stating it was for my 7 year anniversary with my girl friend. When we arrived, the table had rose pedals on it with a congratulations card signed by the V team, plus they let us choose a dessert from their menu as a present. The waiter were always there to ask if everything was looking good. A+ for customer service! The only downfall was there was no view of the outside, they did not have North Atlantic Lemon Sole anymore when we ordered. Lobster, comes with 2, was $88 at the time, market price. Valet parking, is on the west side of Seaport Village, south side of Eddie V's. $15, but $13 with Eddie V's validation. But overall, great food and nice people.

    From what I could remember of this dinner party, this was probably the best food experience I have had during my conference stay this week. We started off the dinner with house bread and two pupus: Crab cake and kung pao calamari. The crab cake was served as a cake and we had to carve out our own share for this delicious treat. The calamari was served with some crispy egg noodle which I liked more than the sauce it was served in (sweet due to this plum sauce but lacking that spicy kick) I took on the arduous task of eating the brontosaurus steak which came out to around 34 ounces--it was prepared perfectly at medium rare and I had a host of side dishes to choose from: potatoes and cheddar twice baked, creamed corn, baked mac and cheese, sautéed spinach, sautéed mushrooms and one piece of asparagus. As if that was not enough we ended the night with dessert of which the chocolate dish and the banana fosters were the best of the bunch! I hope that brontosaurus bone will find a good companion with Janet's dog--you are one lucky dog! I would have taken it home and gnaw on the bone myself

    On Friday August 21, 2015 my husband and I went to the "V Lounge" inside Eddie V's Prime Seafood Restaurant. July 21st - August 29th they are having a "Sparkling Sounds of Summer Live Music Tributes". Each week one of the following artist's music is featured: Ray Charles, Harry Connick Jr., Steve Wonder and Michael Buble. We had an awesome time. The V Lounge is classy, and elegant with a friendly courteous staff. The live music tributes are from 7pm to 11pm Friday and Saturday and 6pm to 10pm the other days of the week. Visit www.EDDIEV.COM for more details. We enjoyed each of the Chef Teasers ($5 each) Tartare of Scottish Salmon: Red Chile, Sweet Onion, Capers, Olives with Toasted Baguettes. The Steak Tataki: Seared Beef Tenderloin, Soba Shiitakes, with Light Soy Broth. The Gruyere Potato Fritters: Baked Potato, Gruyere Cheese, Scallions in Lightly Crisped Pastry Dough. The Oyster Fondue: Broiled Oysters with Spinach and Artichoke Fondue, Panko Crumbs. And my favorite the Crispy Shrimp Kataifi: Gulf Shrimp, in Kataifi Crust with Red Chile Jelly all were very delicious. If you like you can also order from the restaurant menu. There were several Champagnes, Sparking Wines and Sparking Cocktails to quench your thirst. My husband and I both loved the " Tokyo Margarita": Casamigos Blanco, Nagomi Yuzu, Fresh Lime and Agave it had a nice blend of tart and sweet and was perfect for the evening. To top of the evening the live band was playing Ray Charles Classic songs and other similar song. Thanks to Todd Neeter (Assistant Manager), Polly our waitress and all the other staff that filled our water glasses, served our food and cleared away the empty plates the evening was a very pleasant, romantic and fun night out.

    Great service, and great food. Our party came here for dinner and we were blown away. My favorites of the night was definitely the chilean sea bass on top of a bed of spinach. The dish sat in a delicious soy broth that was simply to die for. The shrimp entree was also delicious, but I preferred the chilean sea bass over the shrimp as it had more flavor to it and it seemed a little more special. My bf's father ordered the steak medium rare, but it came out a little more rare than he wanted. My boyfriend ordered the special which was an arctic char, he said it tasted similar to salmon but had the consistency of a trout, I wasn't too big on the fish, but he seemed to like it. I definitely think if they got the steak right, this place would have been a perfect 5 stars.

    Not sure how I have overlooked this gem for so long. I walk by here all the time but finally decided to give it a try. Happy hour was awesome considering the quality of the food and the service was outstanding. They also have live music every night. Looking forward to becoming a regular here.

  • Nicole F.

    You just can't beat their happy hour. The lobster at 10 bucks is a steal. While wine is still pricey at 10 a glass, the offering is a Sonoma cutrer which is usually a lot more by the glass. There wasn't any live music on a weeknight but maybe we were there too early. Only disappointment is they took the Redfish off the menu!

    We came here for our 5 year anniversary. We visited San Diego all the way from the Bay Area, and this looked like the perfect romantic spot. Roses and a hand written congrats card were waiting fir us when we sat down. Amazing way to be greeted. Crab cake was an excellent app. My boyfriend had the filet topped with shrimp which was exquisite. The mac n cheese was a bit dry as a side. Chandon champaign for a toast and the banana foster dessert to cap it all off. The banana foster was absolutely out of this world- you must order this. We left incredibly full and thankful for the exceptional service! Thanks for making our anniversary so special!

    Had dinner here in celebration of my aunt's recent marriage and they had set up a large dining table upstairs for our party of twenty. There were rose petals strewn on the table and the lighting was dimmed to make for a cute romantic set up. The service was friendly and attentive and our main server, Kai was quite knowledgable about the dinner selections on the menu. We started off with orders of the jumbo lump crab cake, calamari, truffle Mac and cheese and a half dozen oysters on the half shell on our side of the table. Jumbo lump crab cake: crispy and delicious, served with a spicy chive remoulade. Lots of crab meat and you can taste how bad it is for you with its' buttery richness. Point Judith calamari: served Kung Pao style with crisp noodles and sautéed veggies, these were crispy with a sweet Asian flavor. Truffle Mac and cheese: rich and creamy with a strong truffle flavor. The breadcrumbs on top added a nice crunch to the soft macaroni noodles. Oysters on the half shell: delicious, but not as full of meat as I would like but it would suffice for my current oyster craving. For my main course I chose the swordfish steak, which was broiled with fresh lump crab, avocado, cilantro and red chile. The swordfish had a good crisp and bite to it; the sauce was not overpowering and paired well with the crab meat and avocado. Other sides we ordered to accompany our meal included au gratin potatoes (too heavy and full of cheese in my opinion) and sautéed spinach. I also shared a bit of broccolini from my neighbors which I really enjoyed as well. Overall a great dining experience at a very nice restaurant!

    Ate here for the first time last night upon a recommendation from a friend and was not disappointed! Perfectly cooked melt in your mouth filet Oscar style was on point. Loved the hot fresh bread served with butter as soon as we sat down - we quickly devoured and another was placed right before our eyes within seconds! Extremely attentive waiters and staff. Did not have time to try the bananas foster served with butter pecan ice cream but it looked AMAZING

    Amazing night! Celebrating a birthday for a loved one is always difficult because you want to impress them so bad, but the staff at Eddie V made it look so easy. Everything was perfect. The appetizer I chose (soft shell crab) was amazing. The entree was cooked to my tastes like perfection! His was too! The dessert....to die for....absolutely amazing. I loved it all. Jeff, our server was truly truly amazing. Too Jeff: thank you, my husbands birthday was so much more special thanks to you.

    We just flew into San Diego to start a little vacay sans kids and we we were determined to find a restaurant that didn't serve pizza or a grilled cheese sandwich (aka: kid food). Without plans or reservations we stumbled on Eddie V's which I had bookmarked (the one in La Jolla) for years. Imagine how excited I was to find its sister near the harbor. Even though I was dressed to go to Chili's I was welcomed like a queen. I wish I would have worn my "Haute Couture" instead of my Pret-a-Porter because this gorgeous restaurant and hip clientele was the place to be seen. After valet parking we walked in about 9 p.m. and we were promptly greeted by a gracious smiling hostess who was happy to see us and and found us seating right away. The dimly lit modern restaurant had shades of blue and the adjacent lounge had live jazz music. A towering wine cellar was the focus of the dining room and the white linen table cloths and candle lit tables provided a relaxing romantic but chic ambiance. Our vacation was off to a great start. We had a friendly, smiling, hospitable waiter who was not pretentious despite his white waistcoat. He was down to earth and knowledgeable of his menu and wines. We loved him. He brought us out our cocktails and a bread basket. I sipped on a much needed glass of Prosecco and Mr. G had a glass of red wine. The warm sliced artisan bread was accompanied with flavored soft butter that melted instantly on each slice and the basket was devoured. The menu has a la carte items like a your typical traditional Prime steak house, so you can order various side dishes like truffle mac-n-cheese! The menu had so many wonderful options it was hard to choose. The lobster bisque, the crab cake, an oyster bar menu, all mouth-watering options to try. We started out with a cup of corn chowder. Wow! I hope Eddie V's comes out with a cookbook soon because I have to have this recipe. Delicious, creamy, full of flavor and if I had no manners I would have licked the bowl. For my entree I had the scallops. Every bite was magical. I know I sound like a broken record but it was truly delicious and filling. Citrusy and lite. I asked to waiter to eliminate the nuts from the dish and he graciously accommodated my request. Mr. G had the 8oz Filet Mignon roasted and sliced "Oscar style". The fresh shredded crab meat was placed delicately on top of each medallion and it was topped off with a wonderful creamy Hollandaise sauce and asparagus. This $49 dish was a surf and turf winner. I would say the only "complaint" I had was that the booth seating next to the wine tower was too bright due to the lights that beamed off the ceiling into the cellar. I felt like I had a spotlight on me. So, gracious as my husband is, we switched seats. Problem solved. We mentioned it to the waiter since we switched seats and he was very apologetic. We weren't planning on staying for dessert but my husband's sweet tooth was a force to be reckoned with. An array of tantalizing sweets were tempting. The waiter highly recommended the Banana's Foster. It's always a fun dessert to watch and eat. It's not prepared table side but you still get to ooh and aah when they light the dessert so you can watch the flames flicker. It was the perfect choice. Deliciously, sinfully sweet. The ice cream does have nuts. Overall, a fabulous wonderful experience and reasonable for the high quality service and Prime dishes. Honestly, it's the best meal I've had in a very very long time. This has now become my go-to seafood celebratory restaurant. I would come back over and over and over. I'm so happy to say there is a Eddie V's in Houston, I'll be making reservations very soon. If you haven't experienced Eddie V's you're really missing out.

    We enjoyed some of the most excellent food and very pleasant service. Lobster bisque was excellent, the sourdough is heavenly with seasoned butter, truffled Mac really was truffled (others claim to be but its never really there, this had shavings of truffle and you will taste it). Of course the ribeye was seasoned and cooked awesome, maybe just 30 sec too long, we're not sending it back though. A standout side are the snap peas, they are fresh and sweet, glazed in goodness and sprinkled with love (okay sesame). I would like to see a basic creamy garlic mash on the menu, as the twice baked potato and other sides were salty already, but that's just what I ordered I believe. They would've accommodated me, I'm sure. I hope to come again and try a nicely seasoned fish entree. Perhaps a cedar planked salmon would be nice, or a miso glazed black cod, or spicy curried one. Will have to save room for bananas foster, the couple next to us got it and the scents were making us drool. I only wish I had more room. Definitely up there with the other fine dining, not stuffy. Beautiful decor and great live music, top notch service with great recommendations. You can see they enjoy their work and love to serve people to provide a memorable experience. Thank you!

    I planned a private event for 42 with Kimberly. She was very helpful, easy to communicate with and willing to make some simple accommodations for our group. We rented two rooms upstairs, one for the cocktail reception and one for the sit-down dinner. The staff was friendly and worked as our party grew and grew. Thankfully the room could accommodate as we ended up with closer to 48 guests. For a top-notch business function Eddie V's can't be beat. All of the guests enjoyed their food and we all felt very welcome in the space and by the staff. Thank you!

    We really enjoyed our dinner here. The food was great but the high quality service is what made this a 5 star review. I started with the crab bisque and it was very flavorful with the right amount of spice. The seared ahi tuna was delish! It was very tender on the inside and crisp on the outside. Lastly the banana foster with table side service was just awesome! I like going to restaurants where they treat you like you're the only guests they have. Eddie V's team was very accommodating and gracious. They even gave my sister a birthday card and a complimentary dessert of her choice! Also the ambiance was very classy and romantic and the live band made our whole dining experience impeccable!

    SO SO SO GOOD. Stopped in before the John Legend concert at the Symphony and was definitely satisfied. The BF and I are those tool bags that are eating whole 30/paleo and the waiter was more than accommodating. I ordered the shrimp and he had the surf and turf and both were amazing. We also had the lump fresh crab cake and I had the ahi tartare. We kindly asked him to take away the bread basket as we sobbed. Great service, great food. Definitely coming back.

    We went there for my birthday and the services was incredible, food was delicious, and views were great. A lot of locals come by and music for a Monday night was pretty cool too. We sat in the patio area upstairs next to the lounge and the views were spectacular. A great date place but also pretty cool with young kids (if they be Lobster Bisque - top notch Crab Cakes - delicious Sea Bass - melted in your mouth Dessert - Banana Foster

    Although I have eaten here several times before, this review is about a particular and knife when I had already eaten dinner at a nearby restaurant. My friends and I decided that we wanted drinks after dinner and I suggested a TVs. She argued but of course I wan and we have it at the restaurant. Although there were some colorful characters at the restaurant, the place get additional stars because of the live music and the people that were dancing on the dance floor. I suggested that we order some escargot, even though I was very full from dinner, and somebody somewhere told me that they did not have escargot. I guess I'm just a sucker for live music. Good times!

    We went for dinner on our 1000th anniversary (weekly) and it was awesome! The atmosphere was perfect...just the right amount of light and music along with the special touches on the table (for our anniversary). Not only was every single morsel of food perfect, our server, Domenica, was the best. She recommended a sparkling wine that was the best and not expensive. She was personable and attentive throughout our meal. We will definitely go back!

    It is a five star restaurant no question about it. We had the prime rib bone in and it was perfectly cooked and a perfect cut. The appetizer was the steak and lobster tartar and was absolutely amazing! It was the perfect prelude for dinner. We chose only one side dish, the mushrooms and it was more than enough. Banana flambe dessert was/is a must! Just great ambiance, live music, great service (waiter Kevin) and great atmosphere. This place oozes class!

    Came here right after new years for the boyfriend's birthday, we started the meal off with the seafood tower, not knowing it is more than $70, but honestly, the best money ever spent. I've had shrimps before, but never this fresh and cooked so perfectly. The lobster was done to perfection and don't even get me started on the oysters! happy happy happy! The entrees were great also, but next time I come, i will order the seafood tower as my entree (..so that i don't have to share...) haha

    A couple weeks ago, my boyfriend and I stayed downtown for my birthday. We were having a stressful afternoon and to make things worse, the restaurant we were planning to go to was closed. Eddie V's was nearby and we thought we should try it. Neither of us had been there before. To be honest, we were not really excited about going to dinner with all the stressful things going on. As soon as we walked in, the atmosphere changed. The hostesses were genuinely friendly. They wished me a happy birthday and gave me a birthday card. We asked if we were not dressed to code, but they kindly said we were dressed appropriately. They were very nice. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very romantic and comfortable. The decor was not too over-the-top and nicely done. Our server Ky was friendly and very knowledgable. He assisted us with making decisions on what to order. He was constantly making sure we had what we needed. He definitely made the Eddie V's experience that much better. The steak my boyfriend had was amazing. I had many bites of his food!!! The salmon I ordered was just as amazing. Both were cooked perfectly. We ordered Parmesan and chive French fries which were very good. My boyfriend really liked the oysters. Even the bread and butter was so good. I think I ate all the bread lol. Everything we ordered was excellent! The manager Todd came to our table and talked to us. Usually this does not happen. He spent a few minutes talking to us about how we were doing and wished me a happy birthday. He said that I could order any dessert I want and he would take care of paying for it. It was really nice to have the manager come talk to us and it was another example of the exceptional service we received here. My boyfriend and I decided to order the Bananas Foster dessert which Ky and Todd recommended. Ky lit the dessert on fire when it got to our table. It looked really cool! I do not like bananas very much but this dessert was awesome. All the flavors from the ingredients in this dessert complemented each other so nicely. I absolutely recommend trying it. In closing, our experience dining here for my birthday dinner was exceptional. It's the service which made it so. It's difficult to find this level of service and people who are genuinely nice to you. I appreciate all the attention to detail. Everyone went the extra mile and it made a huge difference. The food itself was outstanding. We walked out after dinner exceptionally happy. My boyfriend and I never want to come downtown, but we will make an exception just to come to Eddie V's restaurant in the future!

    I had high expectations for this restaurants because of the reviews but I wasn't all too impressed. My sister and I took my niece here for her birthday dinner. We were vacationing in SD for a few days and didn't know the area well but our reservation was on a Saturday night. Too busy! Parking is hell and valet was expensive even when the restaurant validated it. We made our reservation on time and the hostess said our table was not ready and that we would have to wait. When I asked her was there an area where we could wait she said no bc the bar and everything was all full. Uh ok so we just stood outside until they got us. Our table was squished between a wall and a large party group. The servers couldn't even get through but I be damned if they tried to anyway. The server was terrible. Not informative, pretty much ignored us. I wasn't impressed with the food we ordered either. It was way too salty. For the amount of money they charged I was expecting something we were going to enjoy. Nope. I don't think I'll ever go back to Eddie V's.

    Come for the food, stay for the people watching. The table to our left was celebrating a birthday and having such fascinating conversation. "Why yes, stepfather wanted the latest model Tesla, so he sold us his old one for a steal!" The table to our right was celebrating their anniversary and the level of awkwardness made me happy to be unmarried. Yikes. The waitress was kind and a little bit overeager like a big, dopey golden retriever puppy. Her opinions were polite and so carefully rehearsed that I could hardly tell that she'd memorized a script. And the food? Try the potstickers. And the swordfish. And definitely the banana foster. Because DAMN that's the best pile of sugar I've had in my whole life. As we walked back to the valet, I took a moment to ponder the whole bizarre experience. After watching the tables around us, I felt like I'd aged. Hello, old married life. I know you're coming for me, but I'd rather wait a little longer.

    I've been lucky to eat at Eddie V's twice. The second time we went for SD Restaurant Week and they included some of their more popular (and delicious) menu items. For restaurant week ($50 pre fixe menu), I had the potstickers, lemon sole, mashed potatoes with bacon and chives, and bananas foster. The potstickers were good, not great. My friend had the lobster bisque and that was excellent, so I'd recommend you getting the lobster bisque. It was the second time I had the lemon sole and the dish was just as delicious the second time as the first. It's a big portion and I had some left over that my friend ate for lunch the next day. We shared the two sides, which were mashed potatoes with bacon and chives (I left off the cheese) and truffle mac and cheese (very good!). For dessert, I was already full, but stuffed my face with the bananas foster and had a couple of bites of my friend's creme brulee. Both were excellent. The service is top notch at Eddie V's the minute you walk up to the restaurant. There's a hostess to greet you at the door, then another to help you at the front desk. They chat with you a little when you are seated and the waiters are very helpful, observant, and efficient. Overall, one of the best restaurants in San Diego! Come to think of it, one of the best restaurants I've been to no matter what city. Please see my pictures. Xie Xie!!

    Oh boy. The second place in San Diego that I've visited with great reviews but leaving a bad impression. At the beginning of our meal....The salads our table ordered were great. The sides like broccolini and macaroni and cheese were like any basic steak/seafood house. But let me tell you what went wrong.... The seafood tower had really exceptional and fresh seafood but there was not one decent sauce to top the oysters. Isn't that a basic necessity when you get oysters?! Everyone at my table complained that their fish was over cooked. My boyfriend's family knows fish. They travel the world to partake in what I think is a ridiculously boring hobby so I trust them. How can this restaurant have so many good reviews when about 4/5 fish dishes at our table were over cooked? Maybe I made a horrible mistake of ordering filet mignon at a seafood restaurant. But you know what? I just didn't want fish that night and hadn't had steak in ages. Surprisingly, my filet came out in three pieces. Um. What? A beautiful filet should be served in one piece. Whatever though that's something I can get over. BUT. This tasted like a steak my dad grilled in our backyard with salt and pepper. While that's not a bad taste (he's great at the grill), what kind of 50$ filet mignon would taste like that? Sad. If you want a sexy filet mignon find Mastro's or Ruth's Chris or even Flemming's. One great aspect of our meal, however, was the s'mores dessert thingy. My boyfriends dad and I wanted to lick the plate (like actually though). Unfortunately dessert isn't enough to bring up how I feel about this restaurant Also, our server was kind of basically maybe a little bit of a jerk. In short, not good for oysters, steak, or fish but you can't really come here for salad and dessert so just take your hot date somewhere else.

    Our 35th anniversary weekend. On Friday we enjoyed two fabulous meals at Trio in Palm Springs. Cost with tip and tax, less than $50. Tonight, for the finale, we had reservation at Eddie V's in San Diego. The food was good, but no better than Trio. You pay Eddie V prices for good food, but especially for the superior service. The floor staff was great. However, it took 90 minutes to get our dinner... after we were seated. We sat with nothing but two water glasses on our table for 35 minutes. The waiter warned us that vegetable plates were hot. He was correct. Somehow, the vegetables managed to be cold! Geez A bummer ending to a great weekend. And trust me, the bill at Eddie V's was in a whole different tax bracket than Trio. Same quality of food, but a far inferior experience.

    3.75 stars. I probably would've given this place 5 stars if they hadn't forgot that it was my birthday dinner. The service here is awesome! The waiters were attentive (less so during the later part of our dinner). They made sure to change our plates, get our bread etc. Food is delicious! We ordered the crab cake appetizer, filet mignon with a lobster tail, a side of crab fried rice. Omgosh the crab cake was the best thing I ate! Oh I loved their bread and butter too. The lobster was fantastic! Cook to perfection. The girly mignon was my least favorite. It was so tough even for medium rare. It was seasoned well though. Overall this restaurant served great food. But towards the end of our dinner no one came by to give me water or check on us. Whatever. I didn't wanna raise a big stink about it being my birthday so we left. It just seems wrong to me that when someone calls in to let them know that they are celebrating a birthday, to not do anything for them. For such a high caliber restaurant like Eddie V's, really?

    Dined here in October '14 outside; perfect weather, not too loud. We had a filet and tuna, both were prepared perfectly. The service was unfortunately not perfect; after a drink order, the waitress seemed to forget about us for 25 minutes. I'm not the type to complain though, and she knew she had made a mistake, so she must have mentioned it to the manager because after apologizing to us, the manager came out and also apologized and not only took the drinks we had been waiting for off the bill, but gave us another round for free. There's a huge difference between getting something after you complain and staff that proactively make up for a mistake. Service was perfect the rest of the evening and I'm sure it was just a simply mistake. Weill definitely be going back next time I stay at the Hyatt next door.

    Had the best time. Kelsey & Ryan made us feel relaxed and special. Raw oysters were superb. Stuffed Shrimp, twice baked potatoes (they DEFINITELY got them right the second time, HAHA, just a PUN) and crab corn chowder. Couldn't finish the awesome chocolate mountain of a desert... We sat outside by the fountain, which I would recommend. Inside or out, however, your insides will be pleased after dinner here.

    In California it is difficult to find great grouper fish. I lived in the Gulf of Mexico in Florida twice and while there I found a fish I loved, the grouper. Very delicious and this restaurant had it, freshly shipped daily according to the waiter. It was fresh and cooked perfectly. Impressed. The lobster and filet mignon was wonderful. The side dishes they offered came in single and large sizes. Single size was great to share with someone. Many courses of food offered, all of which you can pick and choose, and eat in any order you please. Wine menu was nice and much help from the very prepared waiter. Any question on the menu was perfectly answered right then and their from our waiter, well prepared staff. The lighting and ambiance of the restaurant was wonderful, dim, grand piano and blues music playing. Full bar down stairs, dining on two floors, stairs or elevator to access the second level. Gorgeous display of the wines from first floor all the way to the ceiling of the top floor. Managers came to ask how the food was twice through out the several course meal. Nice Casual attire from shopping all day was acceptable or if you would like a cute pair of heels and a summer dress would do just fine. Tables were set for four or more. You pay for the quality of food and service here, you won't be disappointed. I really enjoyed my experience here. We will be back again to dine.

    What a great dinning experience dining at Eddie V's Prime Seafood at The Headquarters. Came here with 7 of my friends and we had a private room. YAY, because as loud as we were, we could've been asked to leave. All kidding aside, we did not ask for a private room however we were given a room that seats up to 10 people. The room had it's own AC control and you can hear the live music playing in the lounge. Glad we had the room as it was intimate where we could actually carry on a conversation with everyone. Our server Chris was absolutely great. He came in several times as we waited for our party to arrive and offered some bread and adult beverages From the start to finish, he was on it. Food: Complimentary Bread Pot Stickers- (YUMMY) Crab Cake 8 oz Filet Mignon cooked medium Swordfish Steak -broiled with fresh lump crab, avocado, cilantro and red chile The bread was warm (I love bread) and the butter just spread smoothly on it. Pot Stickers was also a hit. It had a sauce on the bottom of the plate that was yummy and the crab cake to what I was told was really good. Unfortunately, my steak was served to me RARE so I had to return it. Luckily the server asked me to make sure that it was to my liking before walking away and that's how I noticed it. They were quick to react and got my steak back on the grill. After all that my friend realized that her steak was medium instead of rare. OOPS, the servers got our dishes mixed up. I got to try the Swordfish Steak and I will say that it was yummy. It was soft and full of flavor. (not fishy) Definitely a dish that I would highly recommend. The restaurant is quite spacious and I love the ambiance. Next time I'll try the HH and sit in the lounge. Whoever was the band playing sounded really good.

    When I first reviewed this place, I was on holiday with my daughters; and my wife was unavailable to join us in San Diego. This being our anniversary weekend, I wanted to take her to a elegant dining establishment that I could be assured had excellent cuisine. We had so much fun tooling around the coast in our convertible that we lost track of time, and it was around 10pm, before we realized that we were famished. Would a return trip to this wonderful restaurant reward us with delectable dishes, that would certainly please my wife; or would their reputation be tarnished forever? Needless to say, the 8 oz filet mignon with lobster tail that I tasted was thoroughly enjoyable. And my wife's experience with the roasted double breast of chicken was just heavenly, she opined. And Tara P., our waitress was just wonderfully prompt, attentive, and unobtrusive. She waited on us promptly never missing a beat, and yet; she was inconspicuous as my wife and I just wanted to enjoy our dinner and each other's company. Whether it's a late night or early evening meal, I have never been disappointed at Eddie V's to date.

    Can't review the food because I never got the chance to try it. Made a reservation and when we showed up (on time) they still seemed to be surprised we were there. Took us 10 minutes to be seated then another 20 just to see a waiter. At that point...30 minutes into the non-meal, I was done waiting and we left. To be fair, when I called to talk to the manager (sat on hold forever then hung up), he actually called back and apologized for the terrible experience. Even offered to have us back as his guests but at that point we were done. Headed to Cheesecake Factory because 1) we knew that we'd get service and 2) we knew the food would be good. Sorry Eddie V's, don't ignore your customers and they won't get up and leave.

    OK , I'm not gonna write a book here. This is simply one of my Favorite restaurants in San Diego.....period. We have been here five times since they have opened. I'm not going to go into detail about the food (which is beautifully done) but I will say that if you want the ENTIRE dining experience,which to me is equally good food and service/atmosphere...then this place is well worth the try. On weekends they have Jazz in the bar and the location is right next to Seaport Village and downtown so there is a romatic walk nearby as well. Great place to take your significant other...its perfect. I literally was having a horrible dining experience downtown last week when Mid-dinner I whipped out my cell phone and made a reservation here for two nights later so order could be restored and I could make all things right in the universe again....which after another amazing meal here was succesfully completed.....One last thing...Bananas Foster for dessert , You'll thank me later.....

    This is the best restraunt in San Diego maybe even in CA. My family and I dined here and all of us had zero complaints on the food (which is a first). The filet mignon oscar style is UNREAL it's so good. I also highly recommend the truffle mac n cheese, and for desert the s'mores is AMAZING one of the best desserts I've ever had.

    We need more stars! From their understanding and kindness when we had a last minute delay and still seated us at the best table in the house, to the delicious crab cake appetizer, to the wine, to the amazing lemon sole, to the magical bananas foster, Justin (our server) was incredibly attentive but not overbearing. Everyone we encountered was a 10! I can't wait to go back - after a couple more weeks in the gym! Just the most unbelievable experience!

    This is a super later review... Went from a 2 star to a 5 star thanks to the amazing manager. We came here during restaurant week in September and had a bit of an experience with food showing up at different times. My girlfriend ordered dessert and all 3 of us got ours first and hers came about 25 minutes later. The waiter wasn't helpful but the manager came over to explain the situation and was very sweet and turned an ok dinner into a great one. This is my review on service but I loved the food and will be returning back to this location

    I've dined at this restaurant twice now and both times I received excellent service. The experience of dining out is my hobby and that means that there is more to a restaurant than just excellent food. The excellent food must be accompanied by excellent service or the entire experience is a total waste of time and money. Is Eddie V's inexpensive? Definitely not. However, the consistency of the food as always awesome, in addition to professional service, without being overbearing, is key in my book. First time dining here I had "V" as my server. He was excellent. Great recommendations and top notch service. The management came by to check on my friend and I, and we all chatted about wine and Napa. Everyone is friendly and they really want to please the customer and show them the best dining experience. I highly recommend sitting at the bar and having some oysters and martinis, then moving to a comfy booth and having dinner and wine. Of course, you can't leave this place without having their bananas foster. Trust me...even if you feel like you are too full, you need to get the bananas foster.

    This is my favorite restaurant in San Diego. Customer service is and always has been outstanding, very accommodating and always on top of things. I have been here (and to La Jolla) multiple times and neither have ever failed me. Highly recommend the lemon sole and godiva chocolate cake!

    My husband, myself and two toddler girls (4 & 2yrs old) had our anniversary dinner at Eddie V's and had great food and experience. First, there was a card "Happy Anniversary" with rose petals sprayed on the table across. I liked the kind gesture. 2nd, Food was awesome. Lobster Bisque was probably one of the best ones I ever had. I ordered 8oz steak and my husband ordered lobster tail. Very yummy:) and we had Banana something dessert and Godiva chocolate lava cake. Both were "giving me toothache sweet" but was good. I had no issues having kids with us - They have booster chair and highchair too (not like Morton's). So, I'd say this place is Kids friendly and not as unhealthy as Cheese Cake factory next door. I'll go there again:)

    The food here is great (swordfish, tuna, mac & cheese, and bananas foster are all perfect or near-perfect), but the real standout was the service. I mentioned in passing when I booked on OpenTable that we were celebrating my fiancee's grad school graduation, and multiple people made it a point to congratulate her while we were there. They had a card signed by some staff members waiting for us when we arrived, and even comped us a dessert when all was said and done. Everyone seemed so genuine, and really made the night special. The great live music was another excellent touch.

    Everything everyone says is true. Best food I've ever had in San Diego and I've eaten a lot of good food here. Wife had the shellfish tower and I had the lobster bisque and special with the most amazing filet mignon. Really terrific and first class service. Highly recommend.

    Do not hesitate to make Eddie V's your dining destination in San Diego. This new seafood/steak restaurant just made our 27th Anniversary one to remember. I chose Eddie V's after reading another review of a couple celebrating a similar occasion. When we arrived our table was reserved, with a card signed by the wait staff, and decorations of rose pedals strewn over it. As recommended I asked for a table in the lounge because we are lovers of jazz. When I called I was told the jazz was "smooth" jazz, rather boring to us, but we took our chances. To our delight the jazz was the "straight ahead" variety - standards by a piano jazz trio. And what a trio! Led by Tommy Gannon they were superb. Their music set the tone for a wonderful meal, and top shelf service, with kudos to Melissa, our excellent server. Being oyster lovers we started with a dozen raw - Blue Points and Lover's Creek. Fantastic! A warm mushroom salad followed, split between us. Excellent. Then we topped that off with a very nice steelhead trout ,again shared, with wonderful sides of beets and creamed spinach. All that, coupled with great wine and impeccable service, will make Eddie V's in our "go to" place for romantic and all around excellent dining when next we visit San Diego.

    This was my first time at Eddie V's. We had a reservation for a group of 4, we had to wait for 10 minutes after the set time for the reservation, standing up. Things didn't start as planned, but as soon as the food came to our table our mind set change. I order the lobster tacos, I'm from Mexico so I wasn't expecting something out of the ordinary. The lobster taco were the best tacos I've ever had!!!!. We also ordered oysters, again best oysters I've had. The main course kept the same high standard of delicious food. Dessert was exquisite, the bananas foster was the last touch for a great dinner night. The servers and manager were really friendly and they were making sure they were going out of there way to please us.

    The food is really really good, but super expensive. I knew this going on, so it wasn't an issue, but you have to really excel to get 5 stars when you check is just shy of $200 for 2 people. We sat at the bar, and while the bartenders were friendly, they weren't especially attentive, even though the bar was less than half full. We were not offered bread at all, though the girls a few seats down were, and had only ordered appetizers. Our waters were never refilled, and our plates sat for quite a while before being cleared. The steaks were outstanding, however, as were the brussel sprouts and clam and corn chowder.

  • Bill L.

    Really disappointed. I love the La Jolla location but this one falls short in many ways. First the place has little to no windows and on top of it the lighting is very bright. If you've got little to no windows the ambiance needs to be more cozy and lighting needs to be dim. The piano in the bar is attempting to mimic a Mastro's type feel except it is about half the size the bar area needs to be to make it work. Poorly designed all around. Service was so-so and so was the food.

    We had a great time restaurant even though it was our first time at this place. My husband is all compliment with how our table is set, rose petals were scattered and it was really done with appreciation. The manager came and apologized for waiting awhile for our main course but we said it was okay, by the way the appetizer filled us up ( we did not expect it was kinda big for 2 when it showed in our table).So, we did not even think we waited that long. Our server (i forgot her name) was really attentive to our needs and always had the smile on her face, which is a plus for this place. We've been to many places, NO smile we don't really go back. ha ha, that's just us.At the end we were surprise that they took out few $$$ from our check, which is really a very nice gesture from the management although it was not an inconvenience on our part. The dessert was really good took the recommendation from our nice server (i really forgot her name). We, thank you for the AWEsome accommodation, and excellent service you gave us.We will definitely come back.

    Stellar. Brilliant. Phantasmagorical. Smashing. Guests at the favorite mouth parties included, of course, the Bananas Foster, but also the scintillating crab fried rice, the taste-explosion of the Shrimp and Crab chopped salad, the lobster bisque, lobster tacos, crab cake, oysters on the half shell, truffle Mac and cheese, and the guest of honor, the wild mushroom salad with warm goat cheese! Plus the band is awesome, and Corona, our waiter rocked!

    An absolute perfect experience. This was our first time here, based on Yelp reviews. Service was flawless (thanks Ky M). The crab cake was as awesome as described by some reviewers. I opted to go with prime New York strip rather than fish and was not disappointed at all. One of the best steaks I ever had. We are not great on deserts but decided to sin. The flambe banana desert was literally the cherry on the cake. We will definately be back - thanks Eddie V!

    This place is amazing. It would get five stars for the customer service alone, but good thing the food is delicious! We made reservations to celebrate our anniversary. To our surprise, the table was decorated with rose petals and we even received a card wishing us a happy anniversary signed by a few of the employees. Our waiter's name was Todd. He was very attentive and knowledgable of the entire menu. We wanted to try some oysters but haven't had much of any experience with them. He convinced us to order the fried oysters appetizer and told us he would pay for them himself if we didn't like them. They were delicious!!! They were coated in a curry type coating, deep fried, soft in the middle, and served with pickled cucumber. Soooo good! On to the entrees: North Atlantic lemon sole, filet mignon with crab on top, truffle Mac & cheese, & crab fried rice. Todd even brought us out a cup of the lobster bisque bc we were contemplating trying it. Everything was so good! Everything was so full of flavor, we had no complaints about anything. For dessert, a complementary bananas foster with "Happy Anniversary" written in chocolate on the plate. We will definitely recommend this place for any occasion. And we will for sure be back for happy hour!

    Came here for our anniversary dinner and wow was the service by everyone including George K. Excellent!! We were greeted with red rose petals and an anniversary greeting card. Our server George was very cheerful and friendly, gave us good recommendations. We got steak tartar and lobster tartar, this was very impressive, chunks of lobsters and the steak tartar was so flavorful, had a light truffle taste. I got the jumbo stuffed shrimp with crab and my fiancé got the Red fish with brown butter sauce and chunks of crab meat, we ordered the crab fried rice and sautéed spinach. Everything was delicious, those jumbo shrimps are huge!!! And you get a lot of crab stuffed in there. Then to top off this wonderful evening, they gave us desert for our anniversary, the banana foster on butter cake, with butter pecan ice cream. This is probably the best desert I ever had, the cake is made so well it melts in your mouth. I'm going to be dreaming about this meal until the next time we come here again!

    We had a wonderful time here! We were a party of 9 and they put us in a private room and provided phenomenal service from all the staff! When you first walk in you see their gorgeous wine vault and there is the bar to the right. It had live music that night which we enjoyed before sitting down. Food was delicious. I personally ordered the Salmon but hands down the best meal at the table was the Sea Bass. I will be ordering that the next time I come. Would truly recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice restaurant near Sea Port Village.

  • Ben D.

    Nice staff and ambiance, but the food fails on "value for money". I was there last night on a business dinner. Good thing someone else paid for the dinner, otherwise I'd be upset. My tomato salad was small for the price, two slices of tomato and one slice of cheese. My steak "oscar style" was a disappointment. The beef was fine but the crab on top was too bitter and gave the dish a bad aftertaste. The veggie sides were mediocre, with the bad exception of the potato gratin, which should be taken off the menu until the kitchen stuff gets it right. My hot chocolate cake with a scoop of ice cream was average. It probably all came in separate frozen bags, and only assembled in the kitchen. The staff was friendly. We did have to ask to be moved away as possible from the bar area because the live music was too loud to have a business conversation. Frankly, at this pricing point, this chain is off the list for me. There are plenty of others which do a better job.

    Look no further than Eddie v's for the most fresh and decadent fish and steak in town. Starting in downtown La Jolla, they were so successful the owner opened a new location downtown in the newly remodeled boutique restaurant and shopping center bordering seaport village. From the minute they opened- it's been buzzing with business and returning customers. I myself have been there 7-8 times. I chose Eddie v's to spend my birthday dinner, multiple dates with my boyfriend, Mother's Day brunch, and treating out of town family members. I have never been disappointed. Try and be there during the night time when they have live performers playing tasteful music in their V-lounge. The accompaniment is professional, not too loud, and entertains the atmosphere perfectly for any dinner occasion be it romantic or a professional meeting. Everything on the menu is excellent. They have one chicken dish- one- and it's marinated in chicken ju done with mushrooms and potatoes. Amazing! Juicy every time. Their fish is killer. The jumbo scallops come in a browned butter sauce and topped with fresh tropical fruit. The lemon sole is perfection. The ahi tuna Tare tare is a must for appetizers, as well as the calamari and the tacos. We order maybe 3-4 every time we come- it's hard to pick. You'll see. For sides: The crab fried rice! Twice baked Potato. The Brussel sprouts. Drinks: Raspberry Ricky is my favorite. Fresh muddled raspberries! Second comes the Moscow mule. (I have a gluten intolerance and my first visit they substituted real ginger for ginger beer in this drink. The bartenders go above And beyond to make the perfect drink for you.) Love this place. Must go

    Great restaurant at a beautiful location. The food was very good as well as the service. There is live music in the "V Lounge" daily at 7pm. There is a Happy Hour from 4-7pm daily. Hostess gave me a call prior to my reservation to confirm and a day after I dined there, a follow-up call to inquire about my dining experience. I recommend giving this place a try.

    My husband and I dined at Eddie V's to celebrate my move to San Diego to join him. (Long story). We had such a good time! The atmosphere was great, we love Jazz and they had some great live Jazz coming from the bar, apparently they have live music every evening. The very friendly but professional staff prepared our table with rose petals and a fun card congratulating us on our special night, and then we got to why we'd come. . . To eat! In ordering our waiter wasn't shy to recommend something other then what we thought we wanted, which usually doesn't sit well with my husband, but his recommendations were right on! Both of our appetizers were delicious, a halibut crudo and a lobster that was amazing, and then the entrees. . . I had an incredibly delicious swordfish and my hubby had an amazing Chilean Seabass prepared Hong Kong style, very simply poached in a heavenly broth - I'm getting that next time or maybe I'll just stop at the appetizers. As neither of us had eaten much prior to our arrival, we thought a side was in order so we had some crab fried rice (yummy!) and some brussel sprouts. The brussel sprouts were short of perfect but only because I prefer them to be almost blackened from a roasted or sautéed point of view, and these were golden. All in all we had an incredible meal, enjoyed a nice bottle of wine, (extensive wine list as well) and took home leftovers for a midnight snack. Delicious and super friendly. We're looking forward to going back, not ordering as much, and stopping in the bar to sit and enjoy the music before strolling home.

    I had the pleasure of visiting Eddie V's shortly after it's grand opening. I had never been to the La Jolla location so I had no idea what to expect. I was so incredibly glad I chose this spot for dinner. The atmosphere is so enticing and the food was a treat to both the eyes as well as the taste buds. I can't wait to visit that area again so I can drop in once again.

  • Sandy S.

    The atmosphere was chic and comfortable. Our server was very pleasant and attentive to our needs. However, I'm not sure why no one has mentioned the escalated prices. I ordered the swordfish for $30. If you wanted a side, that was extra. The swordfish was raw in the middle and had to be sent back. My husband ordered the shrimp and liked it very much. For the prices and what we got, I don't think I will be returning to Eddie V's. I need a bigger bang for my hard earned buck.

    The Restaurant is beautiful. Front of the house was friendly and cheerful! Our server was outstanding and very knowledgeable of the menu. Recommendations were appreciated. This could be a 5 star restaurant with a couple of food preparation changes. The fish options (crab cake, whitetail sashimi, seared tuna steak) are by far the best choices. The steaks (both filet mignon and strip) were very good quality but just OK. Plates were way too hot and continued to overcook both steaks. Sides were yummy.

    EDDY Vs made my husband's birthday last night memorable! First, I surprised him and made reservations online and mentioned it was his 55 Bday. When we arrived the hostess sat us down and then wished him happy birthday presenting him with a card signed by the staff! Scott our waiter was perfect! food and drinks were perfect. Afterwards Scott escorted us to a table at the lounge where we relaxed and listened. Yo jazz...I LOVE THIS RESTAURANT!!!!!

    We had appetizers in the bar at happy hour and everything was so good we stayed on to have dinner. Service is top notch. The shrimp cocktail was so delicious that we reordered. You could make a meal of just the calamari ($10 during happy hour). The atmosphere feels special and the seafood is so fresh and delicious. We will definitely be back very soon.

    Fish was excellent despite a few bumps in service. Ten minutes after ordering manager came and said no halibut. Wine ordered was not available. But they comped our 75 bottle of wine. Sides were excellent. Dessert also great. Very gracious in resizing table when we ended ip only being party of 3.

    I love Eddie V's!! My favoritie restaurant. For ambience, for steaks, for appetizers, for service and for VIEWS!!! AND WONDERFUL AFTER DINNER NIGHTCAPS WITH GREAT JAZZ AND NIGHTCLUB MUSIC right in the heart of La Jolla! I think they have the best steaks in town. Cooked to perfection, they're memorable Almost every dinner entree is outstanding but when I go with my daughter we always get the best desert in the house that we just adore and probably love more than the entree - bananna forster! Unbelievable! Although after a great dinner we meander upstairs to hear such fabulous tunes as Red Satin Doll with some of the best combos in town and walk out on the beautiufl patio overlooking the cove to breathtaking views - it's all amazing! Whether you're a tourist or are as fortunate as I am and live here, don't miss Eddie V's!

    I cannot say enough great things about Eddie V's. It was so awesome the first night, we ate there the second night too. Patricia was our server the first night. Talk about personality! She was outstanding and so accommodating. She took the time to understand our wants and needs and repeated our order back to us for accuracy. She was timely and spot on with everything. The food was amazing. I had the Cesar eSalad and it was scrumptious! For entree, I got the halibut prepared as the swordfish on the menu. It came out great. I am not a huge fan of Swordfish, so Patricia was able to get me the halibut as the substitute(but still keep the preparation of the swordfish). The second night we dined with Corona. He was equally impressive! Patricia was working, but was getting off, but she took the time to come over and say hi and give us a hug. The second night we had shrimp cocktail(holy huge shrimp), had the cesar salad again and opted for a steak. We had amazing wine, 2010 Staglin Cab Sab and I was in heaven. Corona made our experience fabulous as well. We were equally impressed when the Manager came over to check on us too. We are so pleased with how things are run at Eddie V's that we are adding it to our list of restaurants when we travel. Thank you for caring about your guest and making our experience 10 stars!

    The wife and I decided that we needed a night out and we chose this place to grab a bite to eat. This location is better than the one in La Jolla. It is newer and roomier. La Jolla can be... La Jolla... Anyways, the service and food were both excellent. My wife had the sea bass and I had a steak. She also enjoyed a nice glass of wine and I had my usual Hendricks Gin & Tonic with a slice of cucumber/lime and it was the right volitility. Great place to eat and hangout.

    This was the best meal I've had in a long time. My bf and I went for a late dinner for our anniversary. When they called confirm the morning of, I let them know that it was my anniversary and the hostess said that she would request a special table. When we got there, our table wasn't quite ready so we sat in the bar area. This was perfect because they had the NBA playoffs on so we could watch while we were waiting. They had live musician there, which I loved! We were seated within 15 minutes and our table was decorated with rose pedals, with a card that said "Happy Anniversary". They already won me over! Our waitress was just the sweetest thing. I don't remember her name- I'm horrible with names. But everyone there treated us like gold. There food was just the BEST! I had the shrimp cocktail and my filet & lobster was cooked to perfection. My bf had the yellowtail sashimi (very spicy peppers!) and scallops. Our waitress brought us the bananas foster on the house for the occasion. I'm not really a banana lover but I said what the heck and OH MY GOODNESS... It was everything I wanted and more. Chocolate, cake AND ice cream?! I'm glad she brought that out because it was the best desert I've ever had in my life! So glad we decided to try something new! I highly recommend Eddie V's for any occasion. Worth every penny.

    Came here for seafood and got the best seafood I could have hoped for. The ambience is amazing and best of all they have live music.

    Full disclosure, a big part of the positive-ness of our experience here was the fact that we had a $100 gift card, but still I would highly recommend it! Happy Hour drinks and apps are a great deal; entrees look great (we only got the halibut filet & it was outstanding) but honestly we just got a bunch of sides and they were great too! Gabriella--our server--couldn't have been sweeter; both she and the manager bent over backwards to accommodate my gluten-free needs, and the butterscotch panna cotta for dessert was one of the best desserts my wife & I have had in a long time!

    Atmosphere was very nice. Food was good. Bread and butter superb. The side dishes were huge so one will easily serve four people. Do wish they would of warned us of that. We ended up wasting a lot of food. The service was superb. I would definitely return

    Ok...I got a $100 gift card from them in the mail and thought...I will give it a shot. Well much to my surprise the food was VERY good! Everything ordered was great, period. Servers were not stuffy and helpful. It competes with Ruth Chris and Island Prime. Its in the middle of them as far as cost goes.....and that is only one of two criticism's. If they would send locals discount coupons I bet they could make it up on the tourists. Or even free Valet parking coupons. And the other item they can do nothing about but it would be nice if there were more windows to watch the crowds go by since its in the heart of San Diego. But it is on the list now!

    I wasn't a fan of the meat tartare but the lobster portion of it was really good. Had sort of a lemon tang to it and you can do the whole thing lobster instead of half and half. I also got a filet mignon and that was really good it was juicy and tender and worth the price of it. Calamari and Mac and cheese truffle were my favorite. Service was really good. We ordered and got our food within minutes portion by portion. The waiter was really nice and funny.

    The food was amazing! The service was great and very fast. I went there for my wedding dinner and they gave us free desert, which was so delicious, I will definitely go back on my anniversary and make this a tradition, it's very pricey but it's worth the penny!

    I cannot begin to say how great my experience was here! I came here for my anniversary and the staff was soooooo attentive to every detail. We we're congratulated by the hostess, our waiter and even the manager. On top of that, they had rose pedals on our table with a hand written card for us. The next day they even called me to see how the rest of my night went!!! Talk about going the extra mile!!! On top of all that, the food was amazing! I had the jumbo shrimp and oysters, and my fiancé had the fish. Everything was just perfect... And we even got a complimentary dessert! I highly recommend this place! The food was amazing, the service is incredible, and the jazz music created the perfect ambiance!

    Insanely great food, and equally great service! Our group had a variety of everything on the menu (seafood tower, crab cakes, tomahawk, tuna, sea bass, etc) and everything finished EVERYTHING. Save room for dessert. The Banana Foster is out of this world! :)

    Our first visit was during restaurant week. I don't think they were prepared to get as many people as they did for a Monday. The place was packed. My girlfriends and I had reservations, and we were seated promptly. Prior to being seated, we had a cocktail at the bar. I gave the bartender carte blanche and he made me one strong martini that carried me through my whole dinner. Thumbs up! Our server was attentive, efficient, sweet, but running her ass off. Again, the place was packed, but she managed to keep it together. We did have a really long wait for our food, after our appetizers, but we didn't mind all that much. We just kept the wine coming. Another thumbs up. The food: I've been a bit hesitant to dine during restaurant week since our experiences in the past weren't too impressive. However Eddie V's did restaurant week right. Dinner started with a choice of appetizer or salad. All 8 of us at the table chose the potstickers. It was the heartiest of choices, and we were all surprised that it came with 4 huge potstickers. Huge! Now that's what I call a start to a meal. Entree: The usual restaurant week choices, such as a filet, filet with shrimp, salmon, and grouper. I chose the grouper, served with a lemon white wine garlic sauce. Doesn't sound exciting, I know, but it was the best fishI have had in a long time. The serving was 2 huge filets, one of which I had to take home, despite wanting to eat it all night. Delicious. Side dishes: Sides are served a la carte, but one was included with our restaurant week menu. Truffled mac and cheese was the flashiest of choices, and it too did not disappoint in both flavor and size. We finished dinner off with our choice of dessert, but again, we all ended up with the same choice: bananas foster cake. I would go back just for this dessert. Bananas foster cake. Period. I loved my dinner so much, I went back just a few days later with my husband. We sat at the bar area and listened to the fantastic piano trio and had another amazing dinner. That is the way to go. Excellent food, great service, fantastic music. You just can't go wrong.

    Jeff and I love seafood and we believe that we have just discovered a new favorite!! Eddie v's menu just sounds delicious from top to bottom. We went for our anniversary and the wait staff signed a card and decorated our table with rose petals- how sweet! Our waiter was Adam who did a fantastic job checking in with us and giving us recommendations. Serena, our server assistant also recommended items that we ordered and just loved!! We went to the new location which is downtown by seaport village. There is valet parking that can be validated, but we found a spot across the street that was 2 he metered parking and free after 6:00. The ambiance is nice and the restaurant is large with plenty of places to seat customers. They also invite artists to play music on certain nights. We started off with the lump crab cake appetizer-- yes it might even be better than Oceanaire's dare I say. It was soooo good- we are definitely coming back for more of that! For entree, my fiancé went for the Chilean sea bass which came in a large portion and a tasty sauce. I ordered sea scallops with citrus on top, micro greens and a butter sauce - perfectly cooked (as Gordon Ramsay would say). These are the best scallops we've ever had! For sides we got small dishes of crab fried rice and the Brussel sprouts, really nice side dishes. I was already super full and satisfied; because it was our anniversary, they gifted a dessert on the house, so we picked the bananas foster cake that was recommended to us earlier. It was fun to see Adam light up the rum and pour the fire onto our dessert for the flambé. Overall we were delighted with our meal and are already planning to come back in the future to try other items. We are telling all our friends about that delicious crab cake! Thanks Adam and Serena for an excellent service!

    Caveat: went for Mother's Day Brunch at an establishment which is otherwise only open for dinner. Found a great parking spot in the adjacent Seaport Village lot, which when validated by one of the SPV venders, is only $4 for 3 hours vs. $15 for restaurant valet parking (really?). Very classy high-end dining with a high-end menu to boot. Regardless, the food and service was exceptional, although I could get a similar experience at Donovan's, Ruth Chris, or Fleming's.

    Service - amazing. I had made the reservation after my physique competition, and they were so kind to leave a congratulations card at my table with all their staff members signatures and a complimentary dessert We ordered the calamari - amazing! It came with Spicy Thai dipping sauce which was amazing. The calamari was light and not greasy, airy and delightful with each bite. My husband order the halibut, I order the filet mignon. We got the crab fried rice, mac and cheese and corn sides - so FREAKING DELICIOUS. Dessert, a lava cake of course. Yum. Coming out of being dehydrated and depleted for a NPC competition and coming here to indulge was the best post competition meal ever. Definitely coming back!

    We have been here several times since they opened this location. Every time we have had great service. Live jazz type music in the lounge every night not too loud so you can talk. Our favorites are sea bass,filet mignon cooked to perfection,truffle Mac n cheese and the sautéed spinach. Wait I forgot the lobster bisque. The bomb! To top all off the have a wine list to die for :)

    Service - 5 Food - 5 Value - 5 Service - Mario leads a great team. The service reminded me of Antonio's in New Orleans. They were very knowledgeable, fun, genuine, and unlike other restaurants of this category acted as if us being there was a pleasure to them versus us being luck to be in their restaurant. They are very service oriented without being stuffy and uptite. Food - I ate a little of everything and the sea bass worth the price. I order it often at many different places and truly do it justice by letting the quality of the fish speak for its self. Some places make sea bass smoky or with a surgery sauce that only detracts from delicacy of the fish. Eddie does not mess around and makes the fish speak for its self. Everything else tasted great, was cooked just right, and seasoned to the right level.

    Last minute decision to dine here. 100% based on Yelp reviews. Returning from NY travel wanted to finish 25 year anniversary celebration with a memorable dinner. From the Yelp app I called the restaurant to book a reservation. I shared with the hostess that we were celebrating our 25th anniversary. When we arrived we were greeted with sincere professionalism and referred to regularly by our name by every service person that waited on us, everyone. A special touch the restaurant had placed rose pedals on our table again making us feel special. Top that with our waitress Tara who was so incredibly nice and attentive and the experience couldn't have been better! Equally impressive was the food. Filet and Lobster and the banana fosters was off the hook! .I travel abroad for a living and will make Eddie V's a frequent stop. Job well done!

    I came with a large group. We had many servers helping us but the one I remember was kai (sorry If misspelt) He was so nice and so attentive. Out of all our servers he helped the most and was always there making sure we had everything we needed. I've never been anywhere that has had such a great server like him! All the servers were very nice and polite but I recommend asking for him when you go there! The food was AMAZING! I can't complain on a single thing. My steak was cooked perfectly and my salad had just the right amount of dressing. They knew just how I liked it and didn't even have to ask! Our food came out quick and it all came out hot! Perfect place to eat. The lights were dimmed for a very relaxing feeling.

    I'm from Vegas, and I've been raised in the food & beverage industry (My dad owns restaurants, my grandpa did also, my brother is director of Food& Bev at the Cosmo etc) so I've definitely had my fair share of delicious restaurants and great culinary experiences, but I mean it when I say, this is the best dining experience I have ever had. I came here back in April to celebrate an anniversary dinner, and from start to finish everything was perfect. There were rose petals on the table along with a happy anniversary card, the manager and several servers all stopped by the table to wish us a happy anniversary, and our server recommended the perfect wines to accompany our dinner. I don't even know where to start on the food... It melted in your mouth. Absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. And the banana foster dessert was to die for. Do yourself a favor and try this place- you'll be happy you did.

  • Stephen W.

    Hard to give such a nice place a bad rating, but the quality service and cloth napkins didn't match up to the food, not even close. The halibut was over cooked and the 8 oz filet came out in 3 little pieces, all cooked over what we had ordered. I dont consider myself a food snob but this food wasn't worth paying $$$ for...try Puesto next door, much better.

    After a whirlwind weekend of fundraising and fashion... I was exhausted.... To the point where eating seemed like too much work! Now that's TIRED! Early Sunday evening, I made it out to the Headquarters at Seaport Village, where of course, just walking around the area, with the smell of good eats in the air, it will make anyone start to salivate! I was in the right place! I wasn't in the mood for anything heavy... just something small and yummy, like a delicious bowl of clam chowder and a crab cake! I was on the hunt! I'm always up for trying something new and I yelped a couple new dining options... Eddie V's won with Old Hollywood glamour and live Jazz music. They have happy hour in the V lounge 4 til 7 pm on NIGHTLY! This is also where they have the live Jazz, Awesome! For drinks he ordered a Margarita and I didn't want to drink any alcohol, but wanted something refreshing made of juice, and they were able to make this delicious drink, of lemonade, crushed orange, strawberries, and raspberries. Thank you! They served complimentary bread with butter. For starters we both got small bowls of soup, the Lobster and Shrimp Bisque for him, and the Crab and Corn Chowder for me. Both soups were delightful. Not your usual heavy creamy bisque or chowder. I'm not usually a tartare fan, but he loves tartare... and the dish that jumped out at him and screamed try me was the Steak and Lobster tartare. I was shocked of how delicious this was. The lobster was light and citrusy. The steak, was definitely different... but with sliced black truffle and cheese, amazing! To top that with a $10 happy hour price! For dinner the Jumbo Gulf Shrimp jumped out at me, with a side of crab fried rice. I was getting full, and we decided to split these two dishes. There was 6 large shrimp "Oreganata Style", stuffed with crab and topped with bread crumbs, and drizzled with drawn butter, this was simply heaven in a bite! This was a first for crab fried rice, it was yummy as well. Ambiance and service was excellent. There was multiple wait staff and even the manager stopping by to check on us frequently. Did I mention the oversized comfortable booths, and TV with baseball playing? Perfect evening!

    I just want to note that this is the restaurant in the Marina district, not the La Jolla location which is much better. I'm not sure what makes the difference, but we've been to both on more than one occasion and there is a big difference. The attitude and customer service is much nicer in La Jolla. The food is even better there, I guess there cook can service only one place at a time. We came into the Marina Location on a busy night, all nights are busy I think. It took forever for a waiter to even give us water or bread or anything! It was late and we were starving. I guess it would have been better if they had a friendlier attitude, but they don't. The food was good, but not for the prices they charge. If I want to pay this much I'd drive to La Jolla or even go to a friendlier restaurant for less.

    What a fabulous place! The restaurant is elegant with great atmosphere. We were seated in a big circle booth in the lounge where there was live jazz playing - spectacular! We all started out with oysters - fresh and delicious! We shared a bottle of the St. Supery Sauvignon Blanc that was perfect! Around the table we had the Arctic Char special, Sea Bass, Scallops, Broccolini and Crab Fried Rice with Mushrooms and Scallions. Every plate was perfect, the Scallops were my fav along with the Crab Friend Rice - that stuff is amazing!

    After our horrible experience eating at Eddie Vs in La Jolla we were hesitant to eat at this location. However, different cook, and staff. Eddie Vs, Harbor Drive location is Wonderful. We were so happy with the service and food. Beautifully prepared, served hot and quickly. I would say, one of the best meals we have eaten in a long time...And did I mention EXCELLENT service. If only there was a view...although with this excellent food and service...we will enjoy each other. We will return...

    I came here after the great reviews on yelp. I made an 8pm reservation and I came a little early and the hostess sat me right away. Both ladies were so nice and personable. Javier C. out server last night, was friendly, efficient and made our night really enjoyable. The whole staff was great! The only reason I didn't give a 5 was my food was lacked seasoning nothing too memorable. Excluding the Bananas Foster! It was amazing so good.

    Went here for restaurant week and we were first timers here. The place is beautiful, ambiance is very classy and romantic, noise level can be average to loud depending on the diners sitting around you. I really like that they play jazz music live too. Service is spectacular! Our server Brianne was polite, attentive and always on the go. The waiters always keep your glasses full. I swear, every time I took a sip of my water, they would fill it up right away. As for the food... AMAZING! Appetizers: pot stickers and Maine lobster and shrimp bisque: the pot stickers were delicious. I mean it tastes like any other pot sticker you would eat. It's filled with spicy shrimp and pork in soy broth. My bf really, really and I mean really loved the bisque. I got a taste of it and it's very creamy and you can definitely taste the lobster. I mean if he could, he would lick the bowl clean. Main course: 8oz. Filet mignon & North Atlantic lemon sole: I got the 8 oz. filet mignon medium-well. It's very juicy. Definitely cooked it to medium-well with a little bit of pink in the center. The outside felt a little crunchy but the inside was just delicious. The North Atlantic lemon sole was delicious as well. You can definitely taste the Parmesan with a hint of lemon garlic butter and more lemon. I think my bf drowned it in lemon haha. But it was still good. Our side dishes were twice baked potato with bacon and chives and the truffle Mac and cheese. I was addicted to the baked potato but I just couldn't eat anymore. I was so full. The Mac and cheese was great, creamy like Alfredo but maybe not a great pair for steak. Id prefer the baked potato for it. Dessert: I swear, by the time we hit dessert, we wanted to knock the f*ck out! Major food coma. We got the hot banana foster butter cake and the hot chocolate Godiva cake. Seriously, I always end up getting desserts that are literally on fire. It's okay, because the presentation of it always amazes me. Mini fire show, hey! After the banana foster cake decided to stop its fire show, the taste was so amazing. Especially the ice cream drizzled in caramel. The cake really tastes like banana cake with bananas on top and I wish I could finish it all but my stomach said no. You've had enough. The Godiva cake had diabetes written all over. It was seriously a chocolate cake drowned in more chocolate. My God. Overall, I had an amazing experience here and I would highly recommend this place. My bf said that this was the best $45 per diner well spent, out of all the restaurants we've dined at. If you're not doing valet, don't forget to get your ticket validated! Saves a lot of money. I think you'd have to pay only $3 for parking and the parking lot only accepts card.

    This place lives up to its 5 star previous reviews! The atmosphere and live jazz make it a winner as soon as you walk in. The bartenders were very friendly and not pushy. We sat at the bar for awhile listening to music before our reservation. We both had the restaurant week menu. Had potstickers and bisque for starters and both had filet for main course. The bread was warm and delicious. The appetizers were amazing and went well with our bottle of cab we ordered. The filets were very flavorful. We both ordered medium rare but one was closer to medium. I should have said something when they had me cut into it but at first glance it looked ok. The chocolate dessert and creme' brûlée were both very good. Our server made it a great experience too. He was so friendly and helpful and funny without being obtrusive. I was hesitant to go because it is a chain but it was the best dining we've had so far in San Diego. Will be very hard to top!

    Service was awesome. Kevin took great care of us. Tuna tartare was fresh with a little siracha kick. Probably should have ordered more seafood. Ordered Beef medallions with shrimp scampi. Steak was bland and a bit over cooked. Shrimp was really good. Order their seafood and I bet it's a safe move. Steak did not wow me. Bananas foster butter cake was a great way to end the evening. A must get!!!

    Excellent Customer Service from beginning to end! This was our 12th Anniversary and of all the restaurants that we've ate at, Eddie V's is at the top. The oysters to the ahi tuna and then the rib eye and lobster...with crab rice and sautéed peas!! Finally the dessert and coffee...highly recommended!!

    So the first review gave this location 2 stars and I was skeptical of the review at first, and now I totally disagree. Since, I've been to Eddie Vs in La Jolla my impression was that their food was flavorful! The impression of how flavorful the food was, stayed with me so much that I stood by it for this other location, even after I read the two star review today, and before I tried it myself! I still talked it up to my sister and brother in law who live across the street from the restaurant. So, thankfully we still went. Eddie V's at The Headquarters has impeccable service. Our server said we could ask her anything as she was well trained. She generously let me taste 3 wines before I decided on one glass. My top 3 favorite items tonight were: 1.The bread. I kid you not, this is the best crusty bread you will find. Served warm, but still delicious even after it became cold. 2. The crab fried rice. Delicious as I remember and only $9 for a large serving. Don't ever change! 3. The calamari. Wow. Imported thai chili. Excellent. We sat in the lounge at a wonderful booth And enjoyed a nice piano jazz band who even played one of my l favorite Sting songs. I received a tour from one of the servers, and the event manager was welcoming and accommodated all of my questions. We even received a welcoming visit from Steve, the sommelier. I look forward to enjoying this restaurant in a variety of ways in the future. Happy Hour, special events, dinners and more! :)

    **Yelp 2014 Challenge #100/100** I'm done! Haha wow. If you pay enough, you DO get great service. Man did I find that out here. Came here for my dad's birthday and called ahead of time to make a reservation. They asked a couple of questions, like "What is the occassion" and email, and lo and behold. Walking to Eddie V's from our hotel, we did not know where it was. It's on the edge, next to the fancy Starbucks in Seaport Village. We walked in and I immediately thought that this was totally a great place to take a date, or have a LBD event with a girl(myself in a tux, ofc :P ). Walking in, you could see all of the wines they had- it was 2 stories long. We were brought upstairs to the second floor to the back, where we were seated and our waitress Ashley greeted herself and asked us what we wanted to drink. Just water was fine, and then we looked at the menu. I was really confused because there was an appetizer, then a second course, then the main menu, along with side dishes and i was looking at the prices and I was like "Can I just get a large side dish" but I don't think people do that at such a fancy restaurant. Ashley was very knowledgeable and knew everything about every dish, along with the recitals of the special of the day and catch of the day, which I realized was a lot of work because you had to memorize so much. So props to her! (She was basically the reason I got what I had for my main course) After taking our order, she brought over the Italian bread (with paprika and sea salted butter). Now that... that was divine. I bet I could have stuffed myself solely on the bread but.. manners :). For the appetizer, we followed suit and had the crab cake. Although it was $18, every. single. bite. was. made of crab meat. The outside was perfect made so that you could have a crunch every bite you took. It wasn't too hard or too soft either. We then had the second course, the Maine lobster and seafood bisque. It wasn't too too impressive. It was just okay. Just a warning- even though it's not on the menu, it IS $7 per cup, $9 per bowl. It would have been better to have gotten one bowl for all of us to share- just a little bit of it. Because we then had the wonderful main courses. Four people, four courses. And we divided them all up. The halibut file($34)t- It had great flavor and was soft. The sauce was all over the bottom of it and you could basically mix it to complement the filet. The lemon sole ($29)- Not something that I suggest you get, because it is butter heavy and it makes you full easy. I got kinda sick after eating a bite of this, so I feel bad for my mom as she had to swallow the whole thing. The breaded fish was too dry, and the butter that was supposed to complement it was too heavy. So when you mixed the two together, your mouth kinda was confused and your stomach, queasy. If you can handle it, by all means go ahead. Inside was actually a great piece of fish. The filet mignon ($45 for 12 oz)- If you can handle the blood, get it medium rare. Yes. Do it. Because I said so. hahha. No but in all honesty, if it goes anything past that, you lose that magical feeling and taste in your steak. The parts that were fully cooked weren't as good as the part that was just a tad raw. And mine the swordfish- delectable, light, and it had chunks of avocado all over. I do suggest that people do get this one to try and eat (even though it is $30). I loved it and I was so glad that I got this to eat instead of the other dishes my family got. This was mine, all mine. It was airy and every bite tasted perfect, because it was cooked perfectly. Not too hard, but not really soft that it falls apart too. And last but not least, the crab fried rice. Not too much crab meat on there, but the fried rice was actually pretty good. Mixed with the few pieces of crab, they were.. what you say.. TDF. Try it out, if you get the chance (and if you're not full). It's a tad overpriced, I would say, but then again, you pay for the ambiance. Then everything was removed and dessert menus were given out but most of us were too full to eat anything and so we had to reject it. Walking back downstairs and through the doors, so ended a wonderful dinner at Eddie V's.

    We stopped at Eddie V's for dessert only. We have been to the restaurant in La Jolla but wanted to see what this one was like. When you walk in, the place is beautiful. The hostess has a nice spot and you can see the dining room with an immense, beautiful wine rack in the background. We tried the key lime dessert that was on the menu and it was ok. We were told the Bananas Foster is the best one on the dessert menu and we should have ordered that instead. Even though the restaurant itself is amazing and immaculate, it isn't our style. If you enjoy waiters in white jackets and jazz music then this is the perfect spot for you.

    Wow! Great service, great food, nice atmosphere. We went to celebrate our friend's new job. The staff signed a nice congratulations card for him, a really nice touch. Food: The 'girls' ordered a crab cake to split, and the 'boys' ordered oysters and martinis. The crab cake was really crabby, but we cheered it right up by devouring it. The boys said the oysters were really good, they ordered two different kinds (little slimy ones and big slimy ones, can you tell I'm not an oyster fan?), anyway, they said they were fresh and delish. I'll take their word for it. All four of the dishes we ordered were fresh and really good, my favorite was the halibut. We ordered two large side dishes (Brussels sprouts with bacon and au gratin potatoes), both were large enough for the four of us to share. Service: The service was what makes this place special, the staff are right there if you needed something, but not hovering over you. Our waiter was very friendly and knowledgeable. When our food arrived, it wasn't one dish at a time like some restaurants - where you want to dig in and eat, but have to wait for everyone's food to arrive (if you're nice). At Eddie V's it's like a ballet, with the staff swirling in at once, doing pirouettes (ok, maybe not) and all the plates are gently placed in front of the (correct!) diner at the same time. I don't need to go into how delicious the bananas foster is, just read every other Yelp! review. We will definitely go back to Eddie V's!

    This place is awesome! My husband and I went with our friend on our last night in San Diego....and it was by far the best dinner choice we've made in a while. My husband and I had been doing last minute errands that day and weren't properly dressed for the type of atmosphere Eddie V's has. However, as soon as we walked in we were greeted at the door with a friendly smile. We asked if we were under dressed and the front staff said no. They seated us, then our waiter Kai came over to greet us. He welcomed us so politely. He told us about the dinner options since it was our first time. When our friend arrived Kai took our orders. He gave us great suggestions on the menu items....every suggestion he made was absolutely delicious. At the end of the meal, we told Kai we were visiting San Diego from Hawaii and it turned out he was from Hawaii. Which led to an awesome conversation. Kai then surprised us with the blueberry cobbler, which was so delightful. Needless to say, we had a wonderful time at Eddie V's. I can't wait to go back to San Diego so my husband and I can go again. Thank you Kai for making our experience unforgettable!!!

    I was staying at the Grand Hyatt across the street and this place was recommended to me, so I figured why not give it a try. The food is good, but this place basically exists for business travelers on an expense account. There are definitely better places to hit up that will cost a lot less. That being said, I was surprised at how good the pot stickers were. The lobster bisque was also good.

    It was very pleasant to visit the restaurant . The place is quiet and cultural, the atmosphere there helped along a deliberate meal.I enjoyed the food very well there was nothing I could criticize. The thing I want to remark was the service it was of the very high level.

    So here's what I loved about this place... the food is great, but the service is amazing. it's all about you when you come here. I ate at the bar, and the bartender immediately greets you, and introduces himself. Then he calls you by name all night. It's personal touches like that that make a place extra special. Food: yum! I went with calamari appetizer, but minus the kung pao. It was incredibly tender. Wonderful. Heirloom tomato salad is light and fresh. Perfect. And the bread.... oh the bread. Warm and crazy fresh, with soft butter. Heavenly. Dessert: bananas foster cake. The guy next to me raved about it, and it smelled amazing. Wish i had saved room! They flame it right in front of you, which is just fun. Plenty to share. I may have to go back tomorrow and start with dessert! Cocktails are great. They have some specials, but will make whatever you like. I heard rave reviews about the Moscow mules. If you haven't been, go. If you're in the area and looking for an excellent dining experience... go. Fabulous place. It's 5 star for a reason.

    My husband and I had to check this place out because of it's 5 stars. We got there when it opened for the night so it was dead, but our bartender was welcoming and relaxed. My husband ordered an orange mojito and he loved it! I got a Moscow mule and it was delish also. To eat we had the lobster and steak tartar and the lobster bisque. We loved the lobster and steak tartar. The raw meat was coated in a truffle suave and the lobster was in it's own sauce with bold flavor. We were surprised how much we loved it! The lobster bisque was such a delight. We had a bowl and enjoyed every bit of it. Our bartenders name was Corona and he was so friendly and knowledgeable to all of our questions. He really was the shit. We not stayed for a little bite and drink and off we were to explore some more. We had a great time and even the hostess was very sweet.

    Came here with the boyfriend for our Valentine's Day dinner... From Vegas to SD!!! We had very high hopes because it was the worst drive from LA to SD which was 3 long gruesome hours. Anyways, let's start with the appetizers... We started off with the jumbo lump crab and Caesar salad (my boyfriend doesn't like or ever eat seafood). The crab was so delicious that even my boyfriend didn't mind it! The Caesar salad was a Caesar salad but it paired so well with the crab. For our entrees I ordered the 22 oz prime bone-in ribeye and my bf ordered the 16 oz prime New York steak strip au poivre with the cracked pepper corn sauce. Note: I don't ever order steak, nor do I even like eating steak, but for some reason this night was the night. What I found awesome was that the server had a flashlight so that you could cut into your steak to see if it was cooked how you wanted it! I don't know if that's what they usually ever do because I never order steak but I thought it was pretty cool lol. For our sides we ordered the twiced baked potatoes with bacon and chives, truffles macaroni and cheese, steamed asparagus and sautéed Monterey style sweet corn. Before the sides even got there I had already digged into my steak, which was AMAZING!!!!!! The char was so delicious and perfect, and even though I didn't think it was red enough it turned out to be the best steak that I have ever eaten in my whole life. My boyfriend loved his steak as well, but I thought mine tasted the best! It was so juicy and mouth watering with every bite. The sides were phenomenal as well. The baked potatoes were so creamy and the bacon just made it. My two favorite sides have had to been the truffle mac n cheese and the sautéed corn! I'm normally not a fan of Mac n cheese either but the crispy top layer made it so tasty. At first I was really skeptical about the corn because It's usually just creamed corn that they offer, but this particular corn was really good. They basically carved it fresh off the corn added some veggies, cheese and some other extra ingredients to make it grand. I love corn and I never thought of ever cooking it like that. It was still so crunchy and stuck together as large pieces, amazing. The asparagus was just some good ol asparagus but came with hollandaise sauce, which was still good but I was tripping over all the other food too much that I couldn't even enjoy the asparagus lol!! I was so impressed with this restaurant that I wanted to write a review as I was eating the food! I finished my whole ribeye and was tempted to pick up the bone with my hands to finish it off but was just too embarrassed..... The experience did not even end there because next up was dessert time!! I had to get an espresso with honey because at that point I was about to be in a food coma and didn't want to tap out just yet! We went with the recommended banana foster, which was literally on fire (long enough for me to catch it on video). It was so sweet and melted in your mouth but I couldn't eat more than 4 bites which was more than enough. Overall, this restaurant was absolutely mind blowing. It made me love steak so much and it was definitely worth the 3 hour traffic. I will make this a tradition to come back once a year!

    This place was delicious. Everything we ordered was amazing. I would easily give it 5 stars but the only reason I don't is because of some of their staff. Our waiter was excellent. I wish I could remember his name. Jeff? Nice guy with a beard. The hostess however, seemed stuck up and rude. Young girl with long dark hair. She greeted us with an attitude then later I had to wait until she was done with her giggling and non-work related conversation with a waitress to ask where the bathroom was. Then there was the Maitre'd who literally went to every single table in our area to ask how their evening and food was, EXCEPT my husband's and my table. Maybe because we're "younger looking"? Who knows. There were probably 10 tables with 2-4 people per table. Not sure why. Thankfully our waiter was great so it made our experience a good one. Will we go again? Yes.

  • Marie A.

    Okay, so the reason why I am giving this place 2 stars is because of the excellent service, great drinks, and the rest of the table seemed to enjoy their food...however this restaurant and chain of restaraunts should really consider putting something on their menu for vegetarians and vegans other than the "market vegetables", especially in an area like San Diego. For those of you who want to say, "why in the world is a vegetarian/vegan going to a seafood/steak restaurant?" Well, for the reason any of veg has to go to one of these places...It wasn't my choice, it was a business dinner. Not even their salads could even be remotely be made without cheese or meat. Luckily I was able to accommodate myself with having the lobster corn tacos with avocado instead of lobster. I don't think I've ever looked at a menu before and literally been able to order nothing.

    We had a good dining experience but weren't as impressed on this second time. The hot bread with great crust with butter is still great. But we didn't think the kung pao calamari (which the server said was outstanding) was that delicious and it was mostly fried rice noodles for decoration and filler. We ordered sauce on the side luckily as we thought the sauce was too sweet. We also ordered the rib eye to share which was good but not amazing. Likewise, we had the brussel sprouts, good but not amazing. This time, we sat in the first floor dining area with high ceilings and seating for large parties in the middle. We sat at one of the booths on the side of the room. It was nice, but not as intimate.

    Me and my boyfriend had a wonderful dinner at Eddie v's yesterday evening. It was my boyfriend's birthday, and let me start by saying this is definitely the place for any special occasion or celebration. They had a birthday card ready at the table, and he must have gotten 4 to 5 birthday wishes throughout dinner. The whole ambiance is of perfection. The food was flavorful, and the seafood was very fresh. For dessert, we chose the banana foster, which was excellent! Definitely reccommend Eddie V's in San Diego, CA!!

    My husband and I came here for our anniversary. We shared a big steak with the side order of corn and lobster fried rice. The lobster fried rice (not sure if that's what you call it) was really good. The banana dessert was also good but not something I would order again. Servers were nice and attentive. Be prepared to spend though because it's pricey.

    We were in San Diego on our honeymoon and went to Eddie V's for a nice dinner. The atmosphere was very upscale however the dress varied. We dressed up for a fancy night out! We did make reservations ahead of time. They asked what we were in town for and I explained that it was for our honeymoon. I wondered what they had in store for us after that! When we arrived we were seated at a table that was decorated with rose petals and we received a complimentary glass of wine! What a way to start the evening! I had the filet and my wife had the sea bass, both were absolutely perfect! The service was incredible as well. Every detail was carefully orchestrated throughout the meal. I would highly recommend this place to others!

    We ate here Oct 2014 after my commencement. After walking a short distance from the convention center we were seated and dined on a spectacular feast. The steak and crab fried rice were divine! Our waiter whose twin brother works there too was a riot. He kept us entertained yet he never let a glass go empty. The decorum is inviting and for a place that upscale fine dining it held up to its hype.

    This was the best meal I've ever had! Our server Heidi made our visit a memorable one in a good way. The cold water lobster tails were amazing. They were cooked peferctly. The live jazz gave the restaurant a very comfortable feel as you dine. The flaming bananas foster was so good, I wanted to lick the plate clean at the end. Thanks Eddie V's for giving my wife and I one of the best meals we've ever had. We will definitely be back.

    Valentine's Day dinner was a perfect evening. This was our first time here and I made my reservations based largely on Yelp.com reviews. I only knew that I wanted to take my wife out for steak and seafood. Eddie V's was one of the top results of that search. The restaurant had a jazzy/loungey music overtone and it was perfect. So often music restaurants overdo it with the music and interrupt the meal, which is the real reason anyone goes to a restaurant. They had a nice selection of music and it wasn't too loud, just in the background. The meal was decadent. I only wanted a big chunk of red meat and I got it. My wife, however, chose the filet with a crab and hollandaise sauce topping. I tried hers and immediately wished I had order that instead. The staff was completely professional. Anje was our waiter and he managed our table along with a few others in the room as well as support from his lieutenants. The highlight of the night, for me at least, was the desert. My wife ordered the Blackberry Cobbler and I got the Toffee S'more. That s'more was incredible, rich, decadent, classy. Professional photographers dream of images like when that arrived at our table. Ameatur eaters swoon when they take that first bit. One downside was the directions on Google Maps are way off. It actually took us about 2 city blocks in the wrong direction. I let the staff know about it conversationally. They said they knew about it. I only wish that they they would've made mention of that in the confirmation call they made earlier that day or somewhere in an email or something. That is not an Eddie V's problem, directly, but other guest might find this heads-up useful and that is why I'm includiing it here.

    Went here for restaurant week. Made a reservation and when we got there we had to wait for an additional 10-15 minutes for a table when there were a lot of empty booths and tables unoccupied. I give it a 3 star because I expected more from their customer service. We ordered from their regular menu instead of the restaurant week selection because it was very limited. But I must say, their sea bass entree was amazing. Over all, it was an "OK" experience. I wasn't wowed with the place. If I'm going to pay $$$ it better be great service and experience which I didn't get from this place.

    Finally! A 5* review I can write in confidence! I was a little scared and intimidated to come here, as I am no miss fancy pants! I am most comfortable in shorts, a t shirt, and flip flops as most PL locals are... I had a $100 gift certificate that was going to expire, so I sucked it up and went for happy hour with my husband, flip flops and all! Here I come biatches!! Wow. I was blown away. There were a variety of people there- from casual people to business people to fancy people- and the service treated us all the same! Fantastic! The food is to die for. No need to explain, just look at my pics. From apps, to steak and seafood, this place knows what it's doing! The fresh table bread is just that- FRESH baked bread in house! You can taste the difference! Two words....bananas foster....dew et! A little pricey? yes. Worth it? Oh hell yes!!! Will I continue to patronize this establishment? You bet ur ass!! ;)

  • Dominick F.

    Excellent customer service. From making reservations all the way through to dessert(recommended by our waiter). I'd give this place 5 stars for the Bananas Foster alone...and I don't even like desserts. Actually everything he recommended was awesome. From the drinks to the food. he even recommended other places to eat based on our meals! Who does that?! That dude was awesome. Anyways, yeah..great place! really romantic. We sat at a booth and those seats are super comfy haha. Food was great! Crab cakes 5 stars. Atlantic Sole 5 stars. Gulf Shrimp 5 stars. Bananas Foster 5 stars. My girlfriend claimed this to be her new favorite restaurant and I'm inclined to agree with her. So I'm just going to throw another 5 stars at this place.

    I haven't logged onto Yelp in over 3 1/2 years but I had to write a review about this fantastic place! My boyfriend and I wanted to go out to a nice place for a birthdays and I've heard good things about Eddie V's from friends so I thought, why not? Our dinner did not disappoint. Todd, our server, was on point. The ambiance and decor was fancy without being stuffy. Overall, the experience was a memorable one. Onto the food.... Get the calamari! It was fresh, not chewy, and the sauce was delicious. The bf and I devoured the plate, and I even thought about licking the last bits but I didn't want to embarrass anyone. For his entree, the bf got the new strip steak au poivre with the black peppercorn cognac sauce. It was cooked perfectly and the sauce lent itself well. He also ordered a couple glasses of wine recommended by Todd, who was so knowledgable about everything on the menu. I ordered the North Atlantic lemon sole, which was crispy on the outside from the parmesan crust yet had a moist and buttery texture inside. We ordered a small side of the truffle mac and cheese, which was not surprisingly delicious, and also not salty all. We passed on dessert, which I kind of regret as the bananas foster looked delicious from what I saw at another table! Our experience went beyond our expectations. We even had the manager visit our table a few times and help out with clearing our empty plates-- which just shows how nicely this establishment is run. I am very impressed and I know my boyfriend and I will be back soon!!!

    Had an amazing experience... Lobster tartare for an appetizer, which was very delicious. My husband enjoyed his scallops and I devoured my rib eye steak that was cooked perfectly. We shared the Au Gratin which was very delicious and Bananas Foster for dessert. Service was amazing and food was as well. It was a great experience. Highly recommended and can't wait to go again.

    This was our first time at Eddie V's. There were 6 of us for dinner. Our table was just the perfect distance from the live music, we could have a conversation and be able to enjoy the music at same time. Our server was very knowledgeable about all the dishes that were on the menu, he recommended some items from the menu that were just fantastic. The Jumbo Lump Crab was the best appetizer I ever had and Chilean Sea Bass was exquisite. It was a perfect evening for all of us, We had a great food a great time and never felt rushed. We will return again soon.

    My fiancé made reservations for us for my birthday we had filet mignon that melts in your mouth I had the crab and corn chowder outstanding, he had the classic Caesar salad the best he's had, sauté Monterey style sweet corn steamed asparagus and Au Gratin potatoes the entire meal was awesome we were greeted at our table in the 2nd floor with a birthday card signed be the chef and staff. Our waiter was pleasant professional and attentive to our visit he addressed my fiancé as Mr. Winfrey which was a nice gesture. The ambiance was very romantic jazz music was being played live at the lounge desert was on the house due to my birthday we had the banana foster omg delicious

    We chose this place due to prior reviews on Yelp and we were not disappointed. The food is fabulous and the Service is even better. We were celebrating our Anniversary and I let the Hostess know when I made the reservation. We were treated like royalty from the moment we were seated until the time we left. The wine list is quite good if a bit overpriced. Expect to pay more than the usual 100% markup but the selection is better than you will find in most restaurants. We had Calamari for a starter which was fantastic. The warm goat geese and mushroom salad was very good also. My wife had the lobster bisque soup and did not like it at all because she said it had a funny after taste. This was the only part of the meal that wasn't top notch. We had Chilean Sea Bass, Ahi Tuna, Lemon Sole and Grouper. They were all cooked perfectly and were absolutely amazing! This was a wonderful place to celebrate our Anniversary! Totally worth the price. Beware that parking is a bit of a hassle so leave yourself plenty of time to find a place to park and walk a ways.

    Arrived early for our reservation to enjoy the bar. Had excellent manhattans and enjoyed live jazz music. Once seated, our server was very helpful and friendly. The meal was so delicious. I highly recommend the tuna tartar appetizer, filet, and truffle Mac n cheese. I was too full to try the bananas fosters which everyone raves about but will go back to try it.

    Drew and I came here on New Year's Day for our 4 year anniversary. Overall, the food was amazing as expected. We got the HH batter fried oysters, the scallops and double lobster tail. Even the complimentary bread was warm and satisfying. My favorite was the oysters though, I swear you don't even have to bite down. Just close your mouth, and they melt like butter!! We washed it all down with a martini and Moscow mule, both tasty as well. Ambience in the lounge was pleasant and the band was great. Our server on the other hand, was a little checked out. Not terrible, just not what I expected from a $$$ restaurant. She didn't smile, and basically gave me one word answers for everything. I don't think she deserved all the tip but watever, the rest of the staff made up for it. The manager came by to check on us and another server boxed my leftovers for me. Would have easily been 5 stars, if not for our server. Either way, I'm definitely coming back for the oysters!!

    My friends and I ordered ribeye steak, scallop and lemon sole. Both the steak and scallop were good, but the lemon sole was a failure. Service was so so. I would expect better for a restaurant with such reputation, no matter the customer orders side dish or not. Four stars for the scallop and the steak.

  • Mary M.

    Superb service by Scot! Came here on Friday June 27th. We were in San Diego for the weekend and were looking on Yelp for a great date night restaurant for my husband and I. We both started with the Lobster Bisque. Delicious is the only word that sums it up. The only shortfall with the bisque is that my husband had a little bit of shell that he had in his soup. For our main course my husband got the 22oz bone-in rib eye. We gobbled up every last bit and was comparing it to Mastros and Ruth's Chris. I got the soft shell crab special. It came with 2 flash fried soft shell crabs and an arugula salad. I actually had to send my first plate back because the crab was dressed with a remoulade that I didn't care for at all. Scot was totally understanding and had the kitchen remake the plate without the sauce. Very delicious! Overall service was 5 stars, food 5 stars and ambiance 5 stars. A real winner!

    Stop it! Yes, I'll have wine and of course I'll take that complimentary flaming anniversary banana foster dessert! I came here with my boyfriend for our anniversary dinner and I was blown away by the customer service! This is a proper fine dining establishment! It is a very typical steak and seafood restaurant in terms of food however their customer service makes me want to come back! If you are celebrating something come here! Their flaming banana foster is to die for. We had the steak and lobster tartar, fried oysters, filet, and lobster bisque. All were delicious! If you want to splurge they have my favorite Pinot, belle gloss Clark and telephone!

  • Joseph C.

    We didn't have a reservation, but we were able to sit in the lounge and enjoy some appetizers while listening to the live music. The jumbo lump crab appetizer was amazing! It came with a huge portion of crab meat and went well with the remoulade sauce and avocado. The oysters were also fresh and tasty. The food here is pricey, but definitely good quality. I would have given 5 stars, but the service was lacking and the music stopped shortly after we were seated (not sure why, but that was kind of the "it" factor of the restaurant). Overall, I recommend!

    My large party of 10 and I went to Eddie V's to celebrate after wrapping up a long series of meetings at a nearby hotel. The staff accommodated our request to be seated on the patio. Impressive given it was a Saturday evening and we called for reservations only a few hours earlier. The weather was lovely. Two servers assisted us and their service was top notch and attentive. Everyone enjoyed their meals . We had a mix of seafood and steaks. For apps we did the tartare, calamari & sashimi. All were really good. We left just as the jazz band was getting set up as some in our group had flights to catch. I'd recommend it if you're in the area.

    Fresh and delicious food, excellent service. For fancier food, the portion sizes are bigger than we initially expected. This is a great place to celebrate a special occasion. We've come here for anniversaries and graduations, and we're always impressed! Our favourites are the truffle mac and cheese (side dish) and bananas fosters butter cake for dessert

    Before I write about the food I want to write about how wonderful the staff was. A really good friend of mine was having here wedding lunch reception here on a Saturday early afternoon. I got to the restaurant early to help set up. The reception was next to the speak easy and there was one table set up for 25 people. However, that was not what my friend had asked for. I brought this to the attention to the hostess and server, without a beat they immediately took care of it and changed it to my friend's liking. We also needed extension cords for a projector. We brought extra cord however it was the wrong plugs. Again, we bright our concern to the hostess and server and without skipping a beat they sent someone out to buy the right extension for us. Customer service was beyond 200%. The service throughout the entire meal did not disappoint either. Everyone was so nice, attentive without being intrusive, and so easy to work with. If I ever want to hold a small party I would most definitely have it at Eddie V's and at this specific location. The food was really good and the portion is very generous. We were all served the fuji apple salad; lobster bisque; choice of: salmon with asparagus, chicken braised with a mushroom wine reduction (I think), and a filet mignon; family style crab fried rice; baked cheddar potato, and roasted broccolini; finally family style dessert of chocolate mousse, fresh fruit with whip cream, fruit sorbet, and vanilla ice cream. Yes, we had a pretty awesome spread. Everything we had was really good, the only critique I had is that the bisque was a little on the salty side. I personally had the salmon and it was cooked so well. I want to come back again to have dinner with my husband. The food and service was beyond the 5 stars here on Yelp. I feel bad that I don't remember the names of our 2 servers and the two hostess and special event planner that helped us out so much.

    This was a terrific experience. We weren't able to book our larger part of 7, so they sat our parties next to each other. The lobster bisque was very good, not too heavy. I prefer a bit more cognac. The crab cakes were top notch. Just the right amount of crab meat. My wife ordered the truffle mac and cheese. It was to die for. When it first came out it was warm enough so they comped us and redid the order. Everyone thought there dishes were superb.

    Long review overdue aside, I believe I've found one of my new favorite seafood restaurants. . My boyfriend and I heard the view was spectacular and since the summer has given way to warmer nights, this seemed like the perfect place to celebrate our anniversary. The restaurant is situated on top of a cliff overlooking La Jolla shores with an outdoor patio that's perfect for watching the sunset. We started with the Crab and Corn Chowder. Rich and creamy soup laden with thick chunks of real crab meat and bacon bits, what's not to love? The serving was quite generous and was perfect for sharing. For our main course, I got the Cold Water Maine Lobster tails. What's better than one lobster tail? Two, of course! And two perfectly broiled and succulent lobster tails is what this dish came with. Everything was seasoned perfectly and you could definitely taste the freshness in every bite. Cold water lobster tails have a tendency to be sweeter and more flavorful than its warm water counterpart. I think I'll stick to these from now on in restaurants. My boyfriend got the North Atlantic Lemon Sole. Sole is one of the more mild flavored fishes, so you must have great seasonings or sauces to accompany it. This fish boasted a crisp parmesan crust with lemon garlic butter, making it extra tasty. We also tried the truffled mac and cheese and crab fried rice with mushrooms. Real truffles in the mac and cheese? I was sold, as my taste buds went straight to the stars. Real truffle makes it the real deal. The crab fried rice was full of crab meat chunks and sort of reminded me of fried rice dishes found in Asian restaurants. And major props to the restaurant for making our anniversary extra special! After my boyfriend told them the reason for our celebration, we found our table spread with rose petals and a card signed by the waitstaff. We were also given a complimentary dessert of our choice. Going with the Godiva chocolate lava cake, this was the perfect way to top off an already sweet night.

    Wonderful birthday! 4.5 stars (rounded to 5 because I cannot bear to give them less though there were some very minor things that could have been done). It was incredibly last minute I had to search for a place to celebrate my birthday this year that would accommodate the dietary needs and hard to please palates of quite a few people. My fiancé's family was in town and as usual when they come through, I was incredibly stressed because they eat very different that we do. Once again, Yelp to the rescue and Yelp won! Eddie V's rightfully popped up in the top 10 list during my search for a seafood restaurant by the water in downtown San Diego that was opened late on a Wed night. I arrived promptly at 9pm with my fiancé. The hostesses were incredibly nice when we entered and offered us to sit at our table (which was already set up) or head to the bar. Of course, I went for the bar. The bar was a beautiful, lively room with comfy looking booths surrounding it and a live band playing. The band was jazzy and really added great energy to the room. The first bartender was very nice and knowledgeable and got me my first wine. A few minutes later a second bartender started some nice conversation and asked how I was enjoying my wine. He offered his opinion on another wine on their list that few people thing to order and asked if I'd like to sample it. I did and it was wonderful! He gave me another small sample to enjoy and already I knew I'd love to come back here just to invite friends to come chill at the bar with me one day. Honestly, the music, service and decor almost stole the show for the night for me. 5 very solid stars for the bar. My party arrived around 9:20pm so we are off to the dining room. It was lovely, a bit small, but they provided a decent amount of space between tables so you don't feel like you are on top of another party (a common problem I've encountered in quite a few 4 & 5 star establishments recently). We were served by an incredibly bubbly yet professional and knowledgeable female server (and forgive me I cannot recall her name at the moment but she was lovely). She made excellent menu recommendations and was easily able to address any questions. We started with the Tartare of Pacific Ahi Tuna and Potstickers. The Tuna Tartare was so amazing! The avocado/mango/citrus that accompanied it was so delicious I could have eaten that alone in a salad. Major kudos to the chef in the preparation of this dish. I might say this is the best Tuna Tartare I have had to date. I wish I could comment on the Potstickers but I do not eat shellfish (fish with scales and fins only are okay in my diet) however my future father-in-law loved them. When he is happy, everyone is happy. LOL. Okay, moving on...the bread we were provided with was also a hit by most of the table. I had to pass on the bread also myself so again I cannot comment but the basket was gone within minutes. Our entrees consisted of Scottish Salmon for myself (requested med rare), Pacific Ahi Tuna Steak for my fiancé, a chicken and two steak entrees for his family. Again, everyone was in thorough enjoyment of their meal. Everything was cooked perfectly, the wait was not long and the taste was delicious. We had a side of fries for the group to share and one order was plenty for the 3 of us that wanted fries. Our entrees through were so filling I actually required a box to take home. Here are my two glitches with this experience. Once seated in the dining room, I ordered my traditional birthday drink a Kir Royale, which should be champagne with a touch of crème de cassis (or even crème de mûre) but like a lot of 3-4 star establishments nowadays, crème de cassis was unavailable and so I was served (which I stated was totally acceptable) a Kir Impérial (uses Chambord instead of de cassis). I still enjoyed my drink, but I think I will search for place that serves my favorite blackcurrant laced, bubbly cocktail before the end of the month. Also, when my party finished eating, the kitchen was already closed. We were never informed the kitchen was about to close. The server knew it was my birthday and I feel should have asked us 20 minutes before closing regardless of where we were in our meal if we would like to think about dessert since by the time we would finish eating, the kitchen would close. Normally, as an ex server, such a glitch would actually cause this review to be 4 stars instead of 5. However, since I cannot really enjoy sweets much anymore (alcohol being my main sugary vice) I wasn't too put off by this. The rest of my party was and really it was kind of a fail. Overall, we had a truly wonderful experience and I loved this place a special event destination. I will happily return in a heartbeat for dinner or cocktails + tunes whenever I have the opportunity.

    Eddie V's is my new favorite spot for seafood in San Diego. In the Headquarters complex (the former San Diego Police Department) next to Seaport Village, it recently opened and they have done a magnificent job. The space has an open and elegant atmosphere despite being on two levels. The crab cakes were outstanding. Light and sweet with a perfect remoulade. Shrimp cocktail was also excellent and the "atomic horseradish" is as hot as anyone could wish. The tuna sashimi was also a winner. Our Chilean sea bass mains were stellar. Perfectly cooked, beautifully flaky, on top of a bed of sautéed spinach in a light soy sauce that perfectly suited the flavor of the fish. The surf and turf was excellent. For some reason it is difficult to find restaurants that do both lobster and steak well, but this place is one of the few that can. The lobster was cooked perfectly, was sweet and delicious, while the filet was tender and full of flavor. A nice wine list with a section of reasonably priced bottles as well as some ridiculously expensive offerings. Service was courteous and attentive. Our server knew the menu and all the preparations and made excellent suggestions. I highly recommend it!

    Food and service were both fantastic. Our server was extremely knowledgeable and attentive without being overbearing. He brought us out some wine to sample before we ordered our bottle. We started with the shellfish tower. It came with lobster, crab, oysters and shrimp. Everything was fresh and delicious. The sauces that came with the tower was great too. For the main course we went with the swordfish, sea bass and soft shell crab. We orderes two small sides as well...crab fried rice and spinach....soooo good. Everyone thought the swordfish was the best...but really it was hard to rank. We had three people...and yes this was a lot of food but we killed it. Yum!

    What a treat for such an amazing meal ! Of course it's pricy but the quality of the lobster and meats are out of this world ... Your waiter is always a few feet away ... The wine selection and champagne is complete ... So if you want to spoil your BFF or just YOU .. Just the mac and cheese truffle is worth the trip ! Bon appetite...

    My boyfriend and I happened upon Eddie V's while in La Jolla a few months back on a late Sunday evening. We were out enjoying La Jolla for the day and needed a place to eat. We were walking by and they were open so we decided to go. We walked in and were seated at a table with an incredible view of La Jolla Cove. Incredible atmosphere! Our waiter was attentive, engaging, and very good at answering our questions and recommending food. Next came the food. It was of the highest quality, equisitely prepared, and presented. The lobster bisque was delicious as was everything else we ordered. I have been to other seafood restaurants in San Diego that are comparable in price and atmosphere and the food at Eddie V's is much better. We were enjoying the atmosphere and the food and it was incredibly romantic. It was a very memorable night. The second time we went it was a Saturday evening. We walked in with no reservations and were told it would be a two hour wait, but could sit at the bar and order from the full menu. We decided to try that and walked upstairs to the bar. There was live music playing and it was crowded and loud, which wasn't what we were looking for. We were a bit disapointed and went downstairs to leave, but there was another bar downstairs so we checked it out. We walked around and found an open table by a fireplace tucked in the corner. We were sure that area wasn't part of the bar area so we asked if we could sit there and were told, "yes." Wow, we couldn't believe our luck!!! Eddie V's did it again. Another memorable night. Eddie V's is now my favorite seafood restaurant because of the incredible ocean views, atmosphere, scrumptious food. I highly recommend Eddie V's for romantic dinners and special occasions. It is a popular restaurant so I do recommend reservations, otherwise you will likely have to wait.

    Hubby and I came here for the first time for our Anniversary. We made our reservation through OpenTable & noted that it was our Anniversary. They took us to our booth which was decorated w/ rose petals & a 'Happy Anniversary' card. Food was great too: hubby got the Red Fish, I ordered the parmesan crusted sole, and we shared a small side of the truffle mac & cheese. Then for dessert they gave us a complimentary salted butterscotch pudding thing which was awesome! Everything about tonight was awesome though. From the host staff, to our very patient & super informative server, to the amazingly yummy food. Even loved the bathrooms! Everything about tonight was great! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars (and its not really their fault) but the parking fees are high, IMO. They validate but we still had to pay $13.00!!! Ridiculous. Other than that, I'd definitely recommend Eddie V's!

    Had an amazing Valentines dinner here once. We were able to make a reservation because my date knows i love my steak. It was nice to be around the La Jolla area at night. People at work were saying how annoying it is to go out on Valentines Day, but I prefer it. It was also awesome because they didn't have the pre-set menu, especially on a romantic day like this. We had late reservations, had an amazing dinner. The steak was medium well, with my glass of wine...it was steak heaven. They've opened another location in downtown too, this is also a chain. I was definitely stuffed after dinner. Happy with the dinner date choice! It was obvi pricey, but it was awesome.

    The service here was impeccable. Although we were a little late for our reservations, we got seated right away. Our server took his time to explain everything we asked about. He checked up on me and my friend and wasn't repetitive asking if we were doing okay all the time. The food here was good, but nothing too special. The steak was amazing. We had it cooked medium rare and my gosh, it was perfect. The center was juicy with a little pink while the outer layer was cooked but was a little crispy(in a good way). It was very easy to chew as well. We also ordered the salmon. It was okay, I wish it had more to the dish besides 4 pieces of asparagus. Definitely not worth the 20 something dollars. The crab cakes here was pretty good. One huge cake with plenty of crab meat and a little tartar sauce on the side. The truffle Mac & cheese was quite tasty. It was creamy and was such a good portion.

    4.5 stars rounded up to 5 stars. This was one of the top two or three dining experiences I've had in 2014 so far. I celebrated my birthday here last night and every course was flavorful and memorable. We had the lump crab cake and fried oysters for starters along with the lobster and shrimp bisque. The bisque was very tasty but maybe needed either more lobster and shrimp or it needed a little thicker consistency as it was slightly runny. The Chilean sea bass was the best I've tasted and the medium sized Nantucket scallops were perfectly cooked and had a nice sweet flavors to them. For dessert, they comped me a bday bananas foster which was good but a little to sweet so I couldn't finish it. Bottom line is I would definitely come back for seconds. And thirds...

  • Tara W.

    The food and the vibe were great! I made reservations and was seated shortly after arrival. I was in town for a conference and they were able to accommodate my party of 7 with no issues. My only complaint would be the lack of vegetarian options. They had one vegetarian meal on the menu and I was told that I could remove anything I didn't like but could not add something else. I've had this kind of experience at other high end restaurants before and it's extremely disappointing to pay so much for a meal and then be told you can't substitute. I don't like to be the annoying vegan/vegetarian amongst meat eaters so for me it was a little embarrassing having to insist that I get to enjoy what I'm paying for. The food I did receive was delicious no doubt. If it weren't for the lack of being able to customize my one option then I would have given this a 5 star review.

    I sent my parents to Eddie V's for their anniversary promising them it would be exceptional, even though they had other plans (the 94th Aero Squadron). They LOVED IT! Don't you hate it when you rave about a restaurant, tell people to go, and then they come back with a different experience than you had? Well, I'm happy to report that they found it to be just as wonderful as I did. Thanks, Eddie V's!

    My husband and I celebrated our one year anniversary here last night and we could not be happier with our decision. From the minute we stepped inside we were nicely greeted with warm wishes and happy anniversary comments. Our table was perfect, right by the window for romantic ocean view with rose petals and a greeting card signed by staff. Our server Paul was amazing, very professional and friendly, checked on us often; there was never any point in our dining experience that we were without. We ordered the tomahawk steak, filet mignon oscar style, truffle Mac&cheese, and twice baked potato --- ALL of it was delish. When we were served our steaks my husbands steak wasn't as well as he prefers it to be (he likes it practically like beef jerky) As soon as Paul placed the plate on the table, he pulled out a flash light pointed it directly at my husbands steak and said "please cut into it to make sure it's to your liking"my husband didn't even have to say a word Paul quickly said "no I don't think so, I apologize, let me take that back for you." Right after he walked away, we were approached by a woman offering two glasses of complementary champagne apologizing for the wait and me having to start eating by myself. The end of our meal was topped with a complementary dessert, can't remember the name but it was like an adult s'more absolutely amazing!!!! I cannot say enough good things about the service and food, by far one of the best dining experiences we've had. Ambiance comfortable and relaxing, drinks great, food tasty, service exceptional-- money well spent, totally worth it, can't wait to return! Thank you Eddie V's for making our one year anniversary a memorable one!

    Got to reservation early. Went to bar for a glass of wine. A few minutes later we moved to our table. Bread and butter were excellent. Great texture and flavor. Superior service. Food was perfect. Seafood salad, cold water lobster, crab cake and bananas foster. This is a do not miss experience.

    We came here to celebrate my birthday and WOW what a pleasant surprise. The bass was absolutely perfect. It was as white as I could imagine and done to perfection. The char was perfectly seasoned and my husband was very happy. My son has a large appetite and was barely able to finish his steak. Great service, wonderful wine and a shared dessert made for an exceptional dining experience.

    I planned a birthday dinner here for my girlfriend and me on our weekend trip to San Diego in March. The staff was incredibly accommodating and offered us everything we wanted. Just from my simple note on the OpenTable reservation that it was her birthday, the entire staff wished her happy birthday everytime she walked by and even had a signed card for her. Our drinks were always filled and was quite possibly the best swordfish I've ever eaten. I suggested it for the company xmas party and will be dining here again in December!

    My husband and I dined at Eddie V's yesterday; it was great from start to finish. We went here to celebrate our anniversary and were very happy with the food, atmosphere and service. When we were walking to our table the hostess greeted us by name and congratulated us on our anniversary. We were then sat at a table there was a card wishing us a happy anniversary. On the inside of the card it did say Happy Birthday, which was funny because the outside was correct with an Anniversary wish. The first item we had was the jumbo lump crab cake... this was by far the best crab cake I have ever had. It had so much crab!! The second was the Tomahawk Steak that was cooked perfectly and seasoned just right. With two sides: twice baked potato and the corn. The last was Bananas Foster Cake and Molten Chocolate cake...both very good. Jonathan was our server and anyone would be lucky to get him, it was helpful and provided great suggestions.

    Located at The Headquarters at Seaport Village District, former headquarters to the San Diego Police Department. Eddie V's Restaurant has a classic architectural style situated right next to Seaport Village. I recommend their Jumbo Lump Crab Cake for appetizer. Compared to other crab cakes (I've tried before) their Crab Cakes has real crabs, no imitation. It is Crabs sautéed Maryland style with spicy chive. The North Atlantic Lemon Sole is one of their Prime Seafood entrée is SO delicious, It is Sole fish covered in parmesan crust topped with Tomato and Herb Salad and smothered in lemon garlic butter. The 22 oz. USDA Prime Bone-In Rib-eye is a bit pricey for $48, but is so worth it, It's actually the best steak I've had after so many years. They really do have the finest seafood and steaks and provide world-class service (shout out to Todd!) Best server ever! I also heard about Eddie V's happy hour at the V Lounge, happy hour prices and live music, definitely enough reason to come back :)

    We came in after walking around the area, we stopped in for a quick snack. We made a reservation and came in. The Maine Lobster and Shrimp Bisque was amazing. I also tried the crab cakes, which were creamy and actually could taste the crab in them. The only thing was we were not all dressed up and could see people giving us odd expressions when we walked in (we didn't look bad by any means). Also, once the waitress found out that we were in to just try some appetizers, she seemed put off and her attitude completely changed. Rating this place on food alone, would be outstanding, but feeling uncomfortable was not a good thing for me.

    We went for a birthday dinner on a Wednesday night. The service was outstanding and the servers were very polite. Everyone at our table got a different entree. Everything tasted very good and the presentation was beautiful. I think the best thing we had was the banana fosters cake. They flambé the cake at the table with rum. It was probably the best fosters cake I ever had. It was expensive but totally worth the experience with wonderful company.

    I wish I could give them more than 5 stars. The service was excellent. I celebrated my birthday here and I was greeted with a birthday card, it was a great gesture. I had the lemon sole, Mac and cheese, and brussels sprouts. My friend had the 8oz filet and it was exceptional. The quality of the food is mind blowing. Everything was cooked to perfection.

    This place is great to bring friends and family to get together. My friend called in for reservations and she told them her situation. She was having a birthday and farewell celebration. She's moving to Hawaii. They gave a a private room, so she can spend some quality time with close friends and family in a secluded room. She didn't even ask for it. Awesome service ... I didn't even get into the food yet. Bone-in Ribeye was BOMB! I didn't need any A.I. which i always use. Swordfish is a must try! The appetizers and deserts you can't go wrong with any. We all got different choices and yea, all absolutely delicious It's also a great place to bring a date. They have live music playing, great choices of wine, and wasn't too expensive. However, enough were your date feels you care lol.

  • Marsha S.

    The cocktails and Calamari is amazing. My husband and I shared the Warm Mushroom Salad, and ordered their shrimp and Crab. You have to order their snow peas as a side, my favorite part of dinner. We saved room for dessert, try the bananas foster, truly amazing, and I don't like bananas. The staff is awesome, the manager went and asked how they made the snap peas hot me so I can make them at home. I would definitely come back if I'm ever back this way, Thank you for making our first evening in town so special.

    Truly a fantastic meal. 12oz fillet with lightly buttered and garlic'd scampi on top of a bed of crispy asparagus spears. The fillet was marbled to the degree that it could have been Wagyu. Cooked perfectly. Someone at the table ordered the twice-baked potato and it was decadently good. We had only 45 minutes because of the start time for a Broadway San Diego production and everything came out in time, and perfectly prepared. Our server, Tara, did a great job. I highly recommend this restaurant. As an aside, the lava cake with vanilla bean ice cream was fantastic. We can't wait to go back.

    Everything about this restaurant deserves 5 stars. The hostesses are polite and professional, the bartenders make great (strong) drinks, our server Chris was extremely polite and friendly, the bussers stopped by every time we had an empty dish/glass to pick it up, the food runner served us portions of our table appetizer, and the most amazing dessert being comped for our anniversary. I have nothing bad to say about this restaurant. My boyfriend and I agreed it was a dining experience more than just a dinner. It was worth every penny spent.

    Came here last night for happy hour at 4:00 prior to dinner beginning at 5:00. Had some great cocktails and delicious appetizers for reduced price before moving to a table and enjoying a huge 1 pound lobster tail and perfectly cooked filet mignon. We both wanted to die from being full afterward, but our waitress sent us over creme brûlée that was outstanding. Then we died. It was a delicious death.

  • Naryssa K.

    5 stars for the service! However the food is what made me rate Eddie V's with 3 stars. For a place named "prime seafood" you would expect their seafood to be perfectly delicious. We went with a group of 6 people to celebrate some birthdays, and while in the lounge waiting for our reservation we ordered a few drinks as well as the calamari as well as the steak and lobster tartare off of the happy hour menu. The lobster tartare was simply delicious. Although I didn't sample the calamari it seemed as though my friends enjoyed it. While dining we ordered an additional appetizer, the potstickers. Those were just ok. The meat was very dense and not that much flavor. For our main course we had: 2 orders of the swordfish steaks a chilean sea bass the ribeye and one other steak. the truffled mac and cheese and the crab fried rice. Out of everything the steak and the ribeye were the best dishes. Sad especially when I selected this restaurant for the seafood aspect. To start both the swordfish dishes were completely dry. The best part of those dishes were the crab and avocado on top of the fish. I was excited when the sea bass came out because it was a rather large piece, however it looked like a lump of tofu like it was not cooked enough. Of course as soon as i started sampling my fish, I noticed the entire inside was not cooked thoroughly. I like when my sea bass "flakes or slides" off. My piece needed to be cut unfortunately. The ribeye was cooked to perfection and the perfectly crisp covering was delicious. The sides of mac and cheese and fried rice were good. Overall, it was an ok experience. The service was what made the experience not so much the food.

    My husband's boss had a company dinner here, and I feel so lucky that I was able to be a part of it. Some of the delicious food I tasted: Point Judith Calamari, Crab Fried Rice with Mushrooms and Scallions, Broccolini with Lemon and Garlic, Truffled Macaroni and Cheese, and Au Gratin Potatoes. My dinner was the North Atlantic Lemon Sole Parmesan Crust with Tomato and Herb Salad, Lemon Garlic Butter. It was so tender, flavorful, and perfect. And quite a large portion! For dessert, I ordered the blackberry cobbler. It was warm and the cobbler part was so crispy and sweet! I tasted the crème brûlée, panna cotta, and the butter cake with bananas foster. Everything was delicious beyond my expectations. I plan to take our out-of-town family here the next time they visit.

    My first visit to Eddie V's at the harbor location for my birthday was a horrible experience for me & my boyfriend. First of all they had the wrong time for our reservation, they had the wrong name for me for my birthday & they didn't give me a complimentary birthday dessert. The whole experience ruined my special occasion. We would never go there ever again! It's a disgrace for whats so called "Fine dining!"

    Came here with my mother and most of her grandchildren before our cruise. We didn't have any idea what we were in for but we love trying new places. We came in really not knowing what to expect, we were absolutely amazed. They put us (all 7 of us) in a very nice private room. The ambience is terrific and our (private) waitress was superb, the service was efficient and friendly. The food was superb and there was so much of it all seven walked (or actually waddled) out of there completely stuffed beyond belief. It's promoted as a seafood restaurant but the steak is also magnificent. It's not cheap but for a 5 star restaurant its ok. Magnificent place but not for a weekly date.

    I went there last night and had the Swordfish and the Steak and Lobster Tartar. The swordfish was amazing and I really loved the Lobster. There service was good and although the lounge was loud the live jazz trio was great. The servers were friendly, but I felt underdressed in just a cotton dress shirt and jeans. Cocktails were good, but expensive.

    Eddie V's exceeded our expectations in every regard. It is a beautiful restaurant, staffed by friendly talented people, serving exceptional food and drink. My wife and I arrived before our reservation and sat in the bar and each enjoyed our drinks. The bartender (Michael, I believe) was very personable and knowledgeable. He gave us a personal tour of the menu highlights. We were brought to our table, and each member of staff smiled and greeted us on the way. Our waiter was attentive without being overbearing. The Jumbo Lump Crab appetizer was fresh and delicious. We had the Sole and Scallops and again both dishes were fresh and excellent. Our dessert capped off a perfect dinner. The manager stopped by during our meal and made sure that everything was going well with our dinner. I received a call from Eddie V's the following day so they could make sure that they met our expectations. I didn't return the call, but I am letting them know with this review that they met and exceeded our expectations. Every restaurant should pay attention to Eddie V's and how they treat their guests.

    Came here for dinner with my husband tonight. I love the live music! The atmosphere was nice and cozy. Service was wonderful! The food was excellent! We ordered calamari, the filet mignon topped with crab meat on top of some asparagus and my husband ordered the salmon plate. Everything was delicious. Good size portions. For drinks I ordered "the perfect" margarita and it was strong which is how I like it! The hubs ordered Hennessy n coke, strong as well. I will be coming back! I was only able to take two pictures.... Next time I will have more pictures.

    5 out 5 stars is always a great excuse to try something new & exciting! This was a great place. We didn't have time or money to spend on a super nice dinner, so we opted for the bar area. What they call the lounge. There was a jazz band there and they were great. The trombone player even made his way around the bar as he played a song. Fun! Here's what we had and happy to recommend it all! Eddie V's $$$ 5/5 and 136 reviews Aug 2014. Correct 5/5 stars. Whoa. Battered fried oysters. $12 Corn and crab chowder $9 Pine Ridge Chenin blanc/Viognier 2012. $10 Butterscotch Panna cotta. $9 All awesome. All.

    Was in San Diego from Minnesota with my boyfriend for the long weekend and were touristing around seaport village when we decided to try Eddie V's. We had no reservation but the friendly host was able to get us seated within a few minutes. Place is beautiful and we got sat in the main dining room close to a gorgeous wine tower. Our server Patricia was fantastic! We felt so warmly welcomed by her, by the time we left we were friends. She gave us a great suggestion on a white wine to match our calamari - and btw the calamari is the bomb! We had the Chilean seabass which was fantastic, my boyfriend had the swordfish and we shared a crab fried rice. Food is amazing, there's nothing else to say. Patricia suggested the banana foster for dessert and man, was she right?! That thing is delightful. Overall, the great combination of service and food made our night in San Diego so special! Definitely recommend it.

Omg my mouth is watering just thinking about it :) and the truffle mac n cheese was yummy and the crab fried rice was okay..I'm glad we came here and highly recommend this place for a fancy dinner date :)

    Upon reflection 3.5 stars is accurate, on the whole. A really good meal, but I do have to say that for the money, not a truly great one. The tartare appetizer was fine, not particularly interesting. Kung pao calamari were also fine, nothing special, and were presented in a way that was difficult to eat. Good steak, tasty dessert, very good service. Fries came out soggy (how does the kitchen allow this? place was not very busy) but server remedied it as quickly as was possible - this did detract from the meal though in terms of timing. I was somewhat disappointed on the whole as I expected a great meal and this fell a bit short of the mark.

    First time here and definitely not the last. My husband and I loved it. Great place to celebrate any special occasion. Food was delicious and service was very good and attentive. -Beef & Lobster Tartare - Very good and very fresh -Truffle Mac & Cheese - Amazing! I don't like Mac & Cheese but I ate most of it! -Calamari - Asian style, sweet and spicy, delicious! -Twice baked potato - it was good but nothing special. -Tomahawk Ribeye- it's their specialty ($72). My husband and I shared it. BEST STEAK ever! A must try! -Bananas Foster - soooo good! We got it on the house because we were there to celebrate my birthday. Overall, I loved my experience, food was on point and service was great!

    My girlfriends and I came in to celebrate two of our birthdays at Eddie V's and we had an outstanding time! We enjoyed martinis in the lounge and listening to the band. It was a very lively atmosphere but we were still able to enjoy our conversation as well as appreciate the music playing. The food was fantastic! We had a few things to share. Our waitress, Lexie, I think, was very attentive and recommended all the most delicious foods. The manager came by to make sure we were doing well and since we didn't get dessert, for our birthday, he bought a couple of our drinks. It was an overall great experience and fantastic way to celebrate birthdays with friends, I look forward to visiting again.

    I must say I was pretty impressed with my overall experience with included making a reservation on Open Table to my dining experience. I've made advanced reservations prior on Open Table and Eddie V's was the only one to call me the day of to confirm my reservation. Nice! When my party arrived before me, they were given the option to sit at the table or get a table in the lounge/bar area for happy hour. When I arrived (which was just minutes before our 6pm reservation) were were escorted to our table and everything was laid out. Upon receiving our bread & butter, which were totally delicious with the pink sea salt and chives, we ordered our meal for restaurant week. Every time we had a meal change, our waiter was there to give us correct utensils and recommend wines with a vast knowledge. And yes they have a magnificent wine case (2 stories tall, in fact!) which you can see upon entering the restaurant. For appetizers during SDRW they were serving Maine Lobster and Shrimp Bisque, Pork and Shrimp Potstickers, and an Iceberg BLT. I'll admit I wasn't looking forward to ordering the iceberg wedge because everything else sounded amazing but what could I do with a shellfish allergy. :(. The wedge was huge!! They said they hadn't even scaled down the size of the wedge for restaurant week and usually serve that for an entrée and I can see why. Buttermilk chive dressing, smooth and creamy blue cheese, 2 pieces of thick cut bacon, roasted tomatoes and cherry tomatoes on my plate and I was given a nice looking knife to cut with. My oh my. I couldn't even finish 1/4 of that wedge so had to ask for it to go. They placed our to-go's in plastic containers and placed in a large paper bag. Whoa fancy. The rest of the party ordered the bisque and it looked good. Came out in a copper bowl/pan on top of a plate, and then our waiters poured the soup onto the plates. You could also get fresh cracked pepper on top and I could see large lumps of lobster in their soup. Envy!! I couldn't tell you how it tasted but all three of my friends finished it, scraping all of the soup with the bread they gave us. For our main entree 3 of us ordered the 8oz center cut filet mignon (1 medium, 2 medium-rare) and one ordered the lemon sole. The lemon sole was pretty good when I got a bite and didn't see overly heavy due to the lemon butter sauce or from being fried. But I love me some filet so I got a medium rare cooked meat. It was a lot leaner than I expected compared to a lot of restaurants which use a lot of butter, but using some of the butter they gave us for the bread really made the flavor more lively. Our second entrees/courses(?) were 2 truffled Mac and cheese, with real black truffle shavings, twice baked potato, and corn (I forgot the name). You could tell the corn was fresh from the way it was cut (like it was cut standing up and entire square sheets of corn were in the dish...you know what I mean if you've ever cut corn shaving down). Truffles Mac and cheese was very light, earthy, and a tad bit sweeter? It was really enjoyable that the dish wasn't totally heavy unlike when using other cheeses. I loved it and forced myself to finish. Haha. For dessert 2 of us ordered the Godiva lava cake, 1 ordered the butterscotch panda cotta, and I ordered the hot "bananas fosters" cake. Mine was much sweeter than everyone else's so I couldn't finish (that's not because I lost my appetite or anything...more because I was too full from previous food). Oh, and boyfriend and I ordered 2 cocktails at the table (Moscow mule and a red raspberry mojito). The mule was served in a copper mug and was very balanced on vodka, citrus, and the ginger flavors. Very smooth on the palate. I loved my mojito...especially it was sweet from the ripe raspberries muddled in, with plenty of mint leaves. Well balanced in flavor and very refreshing. My overall service rating is 5 stars but food options would be 4.5 stars especially for the appetizers. I wish there was a more vegetarian friendly option other than the wedge, which actually isn't fully vegetarian...even though it's a seafood restaurant... And the docking of a partial star is more for me being on the fence of my very lean filet. My friend and I, who ordered the filet) noted the same thing but we corrected by adding more butter. Valet is $15 for 5 hours (and yes cash is accepted) which is pretty good for when you've eaten too much and need to walk around before getting behind the wheel. If you don't get valet, I believe you must get your stub validated and it's $3/hour (credit/debit only). So in reality, I'm giving Eddie V's. 4.8 star rating but you should definitely try it out if you love seafood and can eat shellfish, unlike me. :)

    Just stopped in for a quick bite to eat. Who knew it was so fabulous!!! A great jazz band played while we ate. I had steak, my friends had the sea bass and OMG it was delicious!!!!! The truffle mac and cheese was the perfect side dish! Don't forget the calamari as an appetizer!!! Five stars all the way!!! The night was topped off by amazing staff! The bartender helped with entree choices and wasn't wrong, they were all equally yummy! Mario the manager hooked us up with the desserts! Def a fave!

    Get atmosphere for a large yet intimate group. We have nine people in our party and were able to enjoy good food and conversation. There was live entertainment that provided a subtle background to our evening out. The food was everything that we read about. The side dishes - especially the Mac and cheese - were great and the scallops that I had were delicious.

    Stumbled across this restaurant after a late night walk at seaport village. Wanted some coffee but Starbucks was already closed. So we saw this place was still open. The Coffee was perfect. Decided to come here for my Birthday last year. Very yummy and romantic setting. I would definitely recommend.

  • Jeanpaul C.

    This was a recommendation from friends and it delivered. I had the sea bass which is served on a bed of spinach in a soy broth. With that I had the crab fried rice and both dishes were spectacular. The service was great but a bit slow during a few points. This is a seafood house regardless of what they tell you but if you are a steak person they have a nice selection of steaks so don't be deterred. Price is what you might expect but portions are not skimpy so you will get what you pay for in your meal. We do not live in San Diego but when we return we certainly have Eddie V's on the list.

    Well well well, yelp reviews are useful after all. And what that means is that my review is going to be more or less the same as everything else you read here (not that I particular enjoy rides on bandwagons), but just pssst, everyone else is not lying about this place. =) Service - excellent. Friendly, attentive, warm, helpful without being obnoxious or pretentious in any way. Food - Superb. All of us ordered seafood dishes, some dishes (the swordfish I believe) are slightly less garnished than others (halibut) but all are equally tasty, the fish is equally soft and tender (remarkably so), and the portions are well enough to keep you full, which is not the case for all seafood places. Wine - A great selection here as well. If you get the chance, try the Ferrari Malbec Sangiovese blend - it is amazing, so much in fact that in our next trip to California we made it a point to visit the Ferrari winery to do a tasting. Ambiance - Terrific, well lit at your table enough to verify that you are still talking to the people you thought you were talking to, but with enough surrounding darkness that it feels intimate and that you're not surrounded by people. Pricing - Not the cheapest for sure, but if you're looking for great seafood and wine in a nice atmosphere, you won't go wrong here.

    If you are looking for 5 star dining look no further! Eddie Vs is one of the best seafood restauants I have ever had the pleasure of dining at. I had the Swordfish steak which was made to perfection and melted in my mouth! The lobster tacos as an appetizer could have been a meal all on their own! My wife and I celebrated our 11th wedding anniversary and the staff had our table prepared with rose pedals and took great care of us.......and for desert.... Bananas Foster.... Unbelievable! .....Defiantly will be back!

    Came in for my brother-in-law's birthday and everything was excellent. The food was delicious, and the service was superb. We started off in the bar waiting for our reservation and had a few cocktails beforehand. I had a strawberry cocktail from their cocktail list and enjoyed it so much I ordered another. I highly recommend this place if you enjoy a very nice atmosphere with great ambiance. This place is a little on the pricier side, but it is to be expected for how upscale and delicious everything is.

    I can't say enough good about this place. We went back for Vday. I was expecting that I had probably built it up in my mind and would be disappointed going back....I was wrong. Infact, we both said we enjoyed it even more. The bread and butter alone are worth going for. The lemon sole, the scallops, the fried oysters, the cocktails which are amazing, etc. Pricey, yes! It ended up being $300 for the 2 of us so we won't be going often, but for a special occasion, absolutely! We' ve only tried the San Diego location but are looking forward to trying the La Jolla one, we hear the view is spectacular.

    Wow. Sooooo good. From the seafood tower to the filet mignon, from the truffled steak tartare to the ridiculous butter cake, this was just an amazing meal all around. Delicious! A stunningly designed restaurant, particularly the wine rack setup. Busy & buzzy vibe. Overall a well-deserved Yelp rating. I left feeling like a little piggy!!

    Came here for the first time during SD restaurant week. Service was excellent and everyone addressed us by last name and made us feel very welcomed. Server recommended the Moscow mule and it was spot on! Bread and butter were fantastic and much appreciated as we were starving. I had the lobster bisque, ribeye steak, garlic spinach, and the banana foster as the dessert. I've been to pretty much all the steak houses in SD, and I truly think this is the best one in town. Medium rare was definitely medium rare. They had live jazz music going and although I didn't get a chance to sit at the bar, it looked like a great spot for cocktail and HH. I will definitely be coming back. If you don't mind a little bit of a walk, you can park at seaport village (the one that doesn't have the gated entrance). It's just further down the road after you pass the gated lot.

    We went their to celebrate our wedding anniversary while visiting San Diego. We went on a Sunday evening at 7:00 and the place was busy. I had the shrimp and my wife had the scallops. Both were good sized servings and tasted great. Great service with at least two people waiting on us, and the manager came by to make sure everything was OK. The ambiance in the dining room is upscale but relaxed. You can also eat in the lounge and listen to live jazz where the dress code is a little more casual. Food is pricey but not ridiculously so. Drinks are very pricey. Valet parking was $12. Great place to celebrate a special occasion.

    All around AMAZING food and service. Couldn't ask for a better place to kick off my restaurant week. Ambiance and restaurant alone is very modern and gorgeous. They had a live Jazz Band playing in the lounge, Lots of beautiful tables full of happy guests and gorgeous decor. We were seated right away with a reservation through Open Table. Bread and butter as a starter was very good. Nice and toasted with room temp butter. My boyfriend and I ordered from the restaurant week menu which includes 3 courses. The appetizers weren't too exciting but the main entrees and desserts were OUTSTANDING. Our server Andrea was very attentive and polite. I love this place and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves good food and service.

    I had a fantastic evening dining at this restaurant. Very inviting, attractive, classy and sophisticated restaurant. Just when we entered, the hostess greeted and welcomed us with bright smiles. We checked in and they promptly escorted us to the elevator and seated us on the second floor. Great atmosphere and hospitality. Oh, and this place has an elevator! Isn't that cool? This place gets crowded really fast. The two servers were extremely helpful and performed excellent customer service. This is by far the best customer service I've ever had. Even after we were done eating, paying, and just sitting there chitchatting for hours, they'd still come around often to refill our waters and keep us hydrated. They didn't even try to kick us out when they needed the table for another group, but we got up anyways. One of the servers was hilarious. We ordered two appetizers: the calamari and crab cake. The crab cake was delicious and the calamari was good, but was too spicy. We didn't finish the calamari, so whenever he comes around to check up on us, he asked "how come you're not eating the calamari? It's really good. Eat it." We replied "It's really spicy." He responded, "It's not spicy at all. Come on, eat it. Don't waste food." Who does that?? But yeah, we felt like he was being our father and he's right, we shouldn't waste food, LOL. Since he insisted, regardless of how spicy it was, we tried to finish but we couldn't. 5 minutes later, he comes around again and said "Why didn't you finish it? Don't waste food. Come on. Chop Chop." So, we forced ourselves to eat it all lol and downed water afterwards. He came back again, and sighed "the chef will be really sad if he sees that you guys didn't finish it. He will cry his eyes out." Haha. I had the Lobster bisque soup and the North Atlantic Lemon Sole. The lobster bisque was okay. It was light, but it wasn't as creamy or tasty as I thought it would be, and there was barely any lobster in the soup. On the other hand, the North Atlantic Lemon Sole was fantastic. My mouth was happy. It was crispy and soft and extraordinarily flavorful. I usually don't dine in downtown due to parking, but this place has plenty of parking. Street parking is not needed. If you are full after dinner and needed to take a walk, Seaport Village is just right there. Take a stroll before you head home. I give this place 2 thumbs up and 5 stars.

    Enjoyed an amazing Easter Brunch here. 3 course menu that offered more than enough. Kung pao calamari, filet medallions w/ scampi and bananas foster butter cake that they served and flambé'd right in front of me. All dishes were exceptional, I wouldn't have changed any of it. Good company, good food, good service and a good price for all that was offered.

    Love Eddie V's. This was my first time at this location in San Diego. I was a regular at the Scottsdale, Arizona one when I lived there. Arrived during happy hour with two friends. Service was excellent. Ordered three appetizers. They were larger than expected and delicious. They have a great by the glass wine menu (bottles also available). Wine was served in large, spotless glasses (see my review for another place that same day and you'll see why I note that). Wine was delicious and the perfect temperature. Was too full for dinner but shared a dessert, a hot Godiva chocolate cake with ice cream, which elicited religious praises. The food was delicious, the service excellent, the restaurant elegant, and the live jazz music was icing on the cake. Did I mention I love this place?

    Enjoyed the Chilean sea bass served Hong Kong style. By far, the best tasting and presented sea bass I've had. Service was attentive once our order was made- very slow start. The manners and service overall from staff were, ultimately, exemplary. Crab fried rice, asparagus, and Brussels sprouts were great. My table of 5 all loved the food and atmosphere. I will be back!

    In short, we went here for our 10th wedding anniversary dinner with high expectations... and we were still happily surprised. Service, presentation, taste, live music: all were excellent! Bottom line: This place is a great choice for romantic special-occasion date nights. I put a comment in the OpenTable reservation simply stating that it was our 10th anniversary, and when we arrived they had the table decorated with rose petals and a happy anniversary card signed by approx 10 of the staff. Great way to start! Being restaraunt week, they had a package deal: appetizer, main course, side, and dessert for $45. Neither my wife nor I was extremely hungry so we split this ultimately left feeling very full. As expected, every item was delicious! I won't go into details because everyone else already has. As a bonus, they included a complimentary creme brulee with "Happy Anniversary" written around the edge in delicious chocolate, and didn't charge us for the cup of decaf coffee either. Parking FYI: Parking at the Seaport Village lot next to the restaurant was only $3 for the first two hours with ticket validation. At 5:30pm on a Thursday (during Restaurant Week, no less) there was plenty of parking available.

    Great food! Great service. My girlfriend and I don't get to go out to dinner often, but decided to try Eddie Vs. Great decision. The food was very good. I highly recommend the scallops! Word of advice, the sides are a good sized portion. Two sides is enough for two people to share.

    My Fiancée and I came here for dinner the night that I popped the question. I had booked our reservation a couple weeks in advance and explained the circumstance. I just have to say that the staff at Eddie V's went out of their way to ensure that our evening was as special as it could possibly be. Everything about our experience deserves an A+ Thank you Eddie V's for a great end to a special day.

    We had dinner here last night and it was great! The food was excellent. We had the ahi appetizer, crab cake, calamari and filet. All were great with the crab cake being exceptional! Huge piece of lump crab with minimal breading cooked to perfection! One star being removed for hostess staff. We were not greeted warmly. I made a reservation on yelp and have my confirmation in email. When we arrived we were informed that they didn't have it and no tables were available in the dinning room. She also pointed out to me i must have done the reservation incorrectly and booked for La Joya. Yikes, neither was the case. Anyway found a spot in the bar and our waitress and the manager working the room made up for it. Recommend the crab cake and management please train your greeters to find solutions and not point out customers mistakes.

    Tonight was a big disappointment. We sat in our usual place at the bar so we could listen to the Jazz band. The service from the bartenders was terrible.

    What's fancy? As the brand new sequel to The Official Preppy Handbook reminds us, fancy isn't surface glitz and remarked-upon glamour; real wealth is more likely to be conveyed by threadbare blazers and decades-old recipes for mild Bloody Marys than diamonds and Cristal. Fancy entails an insistence upon quality and an unspoken assumption that someone's always around to do your work for you. A Bentley is fancy. A Hummer limousine is fake fancy. And, for that matter, so's Eddie V's, the bespoke steak and seafood place that opened earlier this year near the boundary line between Uptown and Park Cities. Eddie V's badly wants its well-dressed patrons to believe it's a fancy place to dine, but it's fake fancy to its core. It has the visuals and price list of a high-end restaurant, but its mediocre food and eye-wideningly bad service are befitting of an eatery way farther down the "nice" spectrum. Fake fancy isn't always an unworkable proposition. Proms and homecoming dances, held in spruced-up gyms with columns of sparkly balloons obscuring the bleachers, are fake fancy. Cruises, with their mandated formal nights and servile crew of tropical drink slingers, are typically fake fancy. But, unlike a cruise, Eddie V's isn't much fun. Maybe the price tag's the problem: Surely nobody's entertained by paying $50 for a meal that takes nearly 50 minutes to arrive. Eddie V's handsome team of white-jacketed servers is the epitome of fake fancy. They certainly look the part of a professional wait staff, but every manager, bartender, server and busser who approached my table was comically inept. On one visit, our server skipped half the bullet points on the standard server "to do" list: She twice rushed away from our table before we could place drink orders. She didn't tell us about specials until after we ordered. She did deliver a basket of yeasty bread and an accompanying pat of butter in a relatively timely fashion, but forgot the plates and knives. She never returned to correct the error, but reappeared almost an hour later to check on our entrées: "I trust everything is delicious," she decreed before running off again. Thank goodness we didn't want dessert. It's the kitchen's job to make guests feel like they're getting their money's worth, and whip their skepticism into submission with a cavalcade of astounding flavors. When food tastes flat and uninspired, as it does at Eddie V's, it's impossible not to think about how many loads of laundry you could have done for the $28 you just sunk into a wedge of bland, butter-soaked, fake-fancy Lemon Sole.

    I actually have dreams about this place, it's that good. Barely ever, do i come across a restaurant where everything (from appetizers to desserts) that everyone at the table orders is incredibly amazing. It's not food, it's magic. We started off with the calamari and crab cakes as our appetizers. I'm a sucker for crab cakes, but i'm pretty picky. I mean if you're paying almost $20 for a small lump of food, it has to be worth it, right? The crab cakes here are way better than the ones at Truluck's and only come second to the ones at The Oceanaire Seafood Room. By all means, still wonderful. The calamari was cooked kung pao style, so it had a hint of that asian-fusion tanginess to it. Probably not your style if you're a food purist, but i was into it. As for the main course, we had the chilean sea bass, the swordfish steak, and my personal order: the 8 oz filet mignon topped with lobster tail. The chilean sea bass and the swordfish were both incredible. The swordfish was the tastier of the two and was cooked to perfection - literally falling apart in your mouth. I've always been a surf n turf kind of girl, so i really enjoyed the filet mignon and lobster. The flet mignon was was fantastic, none of that overly-doused-with-steak-sauce taste you sometimes get. As for the lobster, it came with butter...so i was more than happy. We got crab fried rice and brussel sprouts for our side dishes. The crab fried rice, was great - you taste the soy sauce in there but not overtly so. Dessert is my favorite course, and this place only reinforced that notion. Do yourself a favor and order the bananas foster cake. If happiness were to taste like anything, it would taste like this. As for the service, this place knows how to do it right. We were able to get a reservation on a saturday night the day before, we were greeted and escorted to our table promptly, and catered to incredibly well. On a side note, when you call to make a reservation they ask if it's for a special occasion and they actually cater to setting up certain specifics. A lovely couple seated next to us was actually celebrating an anniversary, and one of the coordinators decorated their table with red rose petals before they arrived. All in all, from food to service, it doesn't get much better than dining here.

    Best anniversary dinner ever. I definitely chose a winner this year. Amazing food and amazing service. The only thing that would've made it better is a bigger stomach. Everything we tried was phenomenal. The waitstaff was impeccable. The rose petals and card signed by everyone was a lovely touch as well as the complementary dessert of our choice (bananas foster - holy cow it was amazing). Thank you for a wonderful evening.

My hubby and I ordered the a couple of happy hot drinks (wasn't to fond of the aviator) but the others were really good!!! The food was delicious! For appetizer we ordered the calamari, entries I got the scallops and the hubs got the halibut and a side of mushroom crab fried rice. lastly for desert of course....

  • Dyane P.

    After all the rave reviews on Yelp, my boyfriend and I decided to come here for our last "fancy date night" before our baby arrives in a few weeks. We wanted somewhere a bit fancy, because we know that it might be our last date for awhile and wanted to celebrate our last month as just a couple. Before I get into the review, I will preface that I am rating a bit harsher on the food simply because of the price point. When we spend $100 on a meal (and there's no alcohol on that tab), I expect a delicious meal. If we had paid half what we did, I might have rated it higher but this meal was not worth the $100 that we spent and we left the restaurant feeling rather disappointed and unsatisfied. It started off decently enough - the restaurant is nice, the waiters/staff are dressed in cute little white tuxedos, the bread/butter was good, and our appetizer of Lobster Maine Tacos ($20) had lots of lobster and good flavor. We then ordered, based upon on our waiter's recommendations: Georges Bank Scallops ($34) Swordfish Steak ($33) Brussel Sprouts ($7) All three of these items were underwhelming and disappointing. The scallops and the swordfish were cooked well, but just tasted very bland. I NEVER add salt to my food, and we added salt to both plates to eat them. The crab and red chile on the swordfish were tasty, but the fish itself was just really under seasoned. Similarly, the scallops looked great and the citrus on top was bright and flavorful, but the scallops seemed to have not been seasoned at all prior to cooking and then "brown butter" sauce it was in had zero flavor. Lastly, the brussels sprouts, were mushy. I wish we had said something at the beginning of the meal but I think we were just surprised at the lack of flavor - and our waiter only asked us how things were once when we barely had a bite of the food and then came back to take our plates away. I read really great reviews about the desserts, but we opted out since we didn't want to spend any more money on food that was disappointing us. Overall, I am just bummed about this meal because, again, we were looking forward to a nice night with a good meal. Hopefully we get the chance to get another date night in before baby comes.

    Decor, chic and sophisticated. Perfect date place or a great place to celebrate a birthday or anniversary. The staff, excellent. If you love and appreciate seafood like I do, this is your spot. Suggestions: Market Oysters Maine Lobster Tacos Lobster and Shrimp Bisque, please note its a little salty Chilean Sea Bass

    My husband and I came here to celebrate our seventh anniversary. It was absolutely wonderful and we would like to give a special thank you to Von who did an excellent job recommending champagne and desserts. He also was very knowledgeable at explaining our dinner selections and the type of pallet that came with them. It was a wonderful seventh anniversary at Eddie V's thank you so much! And the rose petals were cute touch

    Came here for happy hour on a Saturday because, well, any excuse to eat and drink am I right?!? The happy hour menu is short but does have interesting options like calamari, tartar, oysters, and pot stickers. While not as robust of an HH offering as other places it does give one a chance to "live like them rich folk." Everything is about $10. The place was pretty empty which I didn't mind. The happy hour is offered in the bar area that has some charm giving me the feeling that I was less of a girl on the prowl for a deal and more having a nice grown up time. Some of the wine offered for happy hour isn't offered usually by the glass on the regular menu which gets a side eye from me. Also there were less expensive options on the regular by the glass list, so take a look at everything. Calamari: nicely done and tender. I liked the Kung pao flavors but would never say this is the best calamari. It is however much better than average and is beyond huge. It was very pretty. Steak and lobster tartar: they put truffle into the meat which sort of overpowered the dish. I was told all this because I didn't have it. The portions were good and it too looked really elegant. People in reviews comment that the bread was good and they are all correct. Warm, fresh, and done just the way I like it! The service was odd. Our waitress was nice but her body language didn't match up. Sometimes I felt like a secretly unwanted houseguest at a very polite home. Still we were checked up on and everything went smoothly. Funny story BB and The poultry crew tricked me into thinking Kid Rock was there. They really get how gullible I am!

    Went on 5/12/15 to Celebrate the new Job Service was really good. Heidi had a strong knowledge of the menu and was very helpful. She didn't even get annoyed that she had to come back a million times before we were ready to order. Ambiance = Modern Steakhouse; dark like a steakhouse (they could use more natural light), but interesting design. multiple rooms for various dining experiences and a really cool 2-story wine cellar. Definitely worth walking around the entire restaurant to check it out. Halibut ($35): Good piece of fish and well prepared, more moist than anticipated for halibut HK Seabass ($44): Good, but over priced. This dish is right on par with the one at Coastal Flats, but theirs is $23 Small Brussel Sprouts ($7): good, would get them again Small Truffle Mac ($7): Really good. If you like Mac get this dish Bananas Foster Cake ($9, but comped for the celebration): worth ordering for the entertainment value alone. who doesn't love seeing things set on fire? Very rich, too sweet for my taste, but BGH enjoyed it.

    MEN- IF YOU ARE READING THIS LOOKING FOR THE ULTIMATE PANTY DROPPER OF A RESTAURANT, STOP YOUR SEARCH YOU'VE FOUND IT! I know that this place is fancy and chic so apologies for the crass announcement, but I was absolutely floored when I got to celebrate my anniversary with my boyfriend here. Seriously. It was the best food, service, and atmosphere one could wish for. We arrived for our reservation and they were putting the finishing touches of a card and roses on the table (tell them if you're celebrating something special!) which just showed the attention to detail and care. I can't help to think of the Broad City episode when they go to a fancy restaurant every time I'm eating at a place with as many stars as the Milky Way, but the server (and especially the one helping her that brought the bread and food) were so chill and nice, it didn't feel stuffy at all. The food itself, holy Shrimp. Starting with apps of shrimp and crab cakes, I could not pick a clear winner. Both were so delicious, so tantalizing, so amazing. There was a mustard sauce that came with the shrimp that I would clearly choose to baptize my first born child in. It was the surf and turf with filet and lobster that took it to the next level. Seriously. If the steak was giving me an out of body experience, the lobster gave me an out of soul experience. Every bite was so perfectly cooked. I woke up this morning feeling like a better person (how I imagine, I don't know people that do community volunteer service feel about themselves or something.) That is how good this dish was. They even comp'd our dessert and wrote a sweet message for our special day. Thank you, Eddie V's for such a classy experience! We will be back (once we get our tax return again next year, what can I say? We're millennials).

    This place has delicious dirty martinis, wonderful service and great atmosphere. Directly next to the Grand Hyatt, so perfect place to grab dinner or a drink. Have been here 3 times and everything we've eaten has been great. Highly recommend the two lobster tail special they have right now - PLENTY to share for 2 people!

    I reserve 5 star reviews for places that truly blow me away. My husband made reservations here for my birthday. When we arrived, it seemed like everyone that we encountered knew it was my birthday - the hostess that checked us in, the waiter, and the manager. I was given a birthday card that had been signed by a bunch of the staff. How cool is that! The manager came by in the midst of the meal, and I told him I'd never been given a birthday card by a restaurant before. He was like, "Really??" like that's a common thing or something. In addition to the wonderful birthday attention, the food and wine were insanely delicious. We were trying to decide on a bottle of pino noir, and our waiter recommended an awesome one. To top it off, we got a free bananas foster to share as a birthday gift. Love this place and I will definitely be going back!!

  • The Grim Gourmet B.

    Went to Eddies for a special occasion, first time at the joint. Not impressed. Annoyed even. Our waiter, a tall fellow whose name eludes me for the moment, evidently decided we where tourists, or just plain not up to Eddie V's or his standards. His whole attitude was condescending. Dismissive even. All questions about appetizers, sauces, sides and main dishes resulted in a recommendation for what ever had the highest price. Without fail. I did ask about the least expensive, most simply prepared fish on the menu, the grouper. He couldn't recommend it. His least favorite. He had heard cats had choked their last on the dish. Now mind you we where not a cheap date. My daughter ordered the lobster tails at a 'market price' of $88. I would like to see that market. I myself ordered the bone in ribeye steak, medium rare, at $49. The wife ordered the similarly priced filet, also medium rare. Now you expect this kind of high, but typical steak house price at this kind of place, something you would expect at Morton's or Smith and Wolensky's... No problem there. The thing is is that they did not deliver. After an excessively, I mean excessively long wait the entrees and sides finally did arrive, and this is where the shenanigans began. As soon as the steaks where set down to our surprise a hostess appeared with a flash light. Yes a flash light. She then TOLD us, did not ask, TOLD us to cut our steaks at the thickest point so that we might see if they where cooked properly. My wife was more surprised than I by the flash light, and when I looked over I did notice that she had immediately pulled out her ID, and a list of other people she knew that used the stuff. Now to our collective shame we did meekly comply, and did cut our steaks where we told to, and the flash light did shine on the meat, and it did look fine. It was after the light was put away, and we where told to drive safely, that we soon discovered that both steaks where medium well. And dry to boot. Now if you think about it that's a pretty clever thing to do on Eddie V's part. If you send the steak back at this point you will surely be confronted by the flash light lady declaring that YOU said the steak was cooked properly! NOW you say it's overcooked? So there we where. $100 of overcooked prime steak, illuminated as it was. A disgrace. This 'Prime Seafood and Steak' joint must have gotten tired of people sending their badly cooked steaks back. And what a strategy! You can picture the staff meeting about the problem; "The customers are complaining" "Well, we could cook the steaks properly..." "naw...." "Hey! I KNOW! Let's put in on the customer. Everybody knows the customer is always right!" "Brilliant Idea Tiffany!" And as this inspection program went on at other tables all through the evening it was funny to see which patrons did immediately recite the alphabet in reverse when the the flash light suddenly flicked on. Now to be fair the appetizer gulf shrimp cocktail and the calamari thingy where great. Particularly the gulf shrimp. The rice and crab side dish was the best thing served. The 'market price' lobster was fabulous if not priced excessively. The same thing for $55 or $60 would have been more in line. But keep in mind that we are paying for Tiffany's raise now. And Tiffany has got a future.

    $45 for restaurant week, and it is worth it. The place is huge with a very romantic ambiance to it...so dress nice. We were a little under dressed. Our reservation was for 7pm and we were promply seated when we arrived on time. Appetizers: blt wedge salad and shrimp and lobster bisque. Main course: lemon sole and 8oz filet mignon topped with shrimp scampi. Dessert: butterscotch panna cotta and hot bananas foster cake. The filet was so tender it was like butter. Cooked medium well and you could slice it with a butter knife. The lemon sole was cooked well in a garlic lemon butter sauce. Tender and not over cooked. The butterscotch panna cotta was so delicious. Sweet with hints of salted candied walnuts. The panna cotta could have been set a little better, it was only slightly runny in the center, but the flavor was spot on. The lobster bisque was also very rich and creamy. Although very good, not the best in San Diego. Wait times were a little too long. For a prompt 7pm reservation, we didnt get out of there until after 9pm. We could've knocked off 30 to 45 minutes in waiting around for our courses to come out and then for the bill. All in all nice place, good food, I would definitely return here again.

    I came here for my birthday. I had the ahi tuna. It was good. But I wouldn't say extraordinaire. I tried some crab fried rice and that tasted great. The waitress was overly flirty with my boyfriend. (Blonde with pigtails) But everyone else had attentive and friendly professional customer service. Especially the lady who led us to our table. And a man who came by to see how things were going.

    Ok, I'll go 5 stars. But mostly for our server Kai. What a pro! From top to bottom a great presentation and explanation of the menu items and pov of the chefs. Well done! On to the food: Lobster tacos, too much cheese. Lobster was perfect. Crab cakes were outrageous! Moist and full of crab (imagine that) Swordfish, good not life changing. Halibut was to die for. Bits of braised pork with edamame beans in a creamy sauce. We did not order bananas foster, but Kai brought one over. The most sinful decadent desserts I've ever tasted! Next time I will go basic fish and try a side or two. But the food is wonderful and the service better. And I love that!!! Parking is easy and the center it's in has tins of cool shops to look around before or after.

    The only reason I upped a star is because the consistently great dessert. We Went out Of . Our way to walk here from gaslamp for the banana foster. We ended up seeing the smores and got that as well. Oh my goodness. So Amazing!!! The marshmallow on top was just, insane. It tasted like a smores but, fancier. I recommend this. And the bananas foster, perfect as it was before. Now, the service, it was worse than last time! This is a 4-5 star restaurant, come on guys. Our waitress spent 80% of her time at the bar talking to who I'm guessing was her boyfriend or friend that was waiting for her drinking at the bar. I even heard her loudly say, I'll be a few minutes, while looking at us. We came in at 10. They close at 11 and all we had was dessert and a glass of wine. We didn't keep her. She picked up our closed out check and didn't say a word. Thank you, Have A good Night maybe? So rude. I asked her about wine and she knew nothing about it and was really out of it almost rude that she had to be bothered. Whatever it didn't ruin our experience, I just think people should know the service is not good here. Neither is the food, but the wine list and amazing desserts make it our end of the night stop!

    The atmosphere is classy and contemporary, a very nice date spot. The bread was really good, they said artisan and it was like a wheat sourdough. To start I ordered the wild mushroom salad. The oysters and onions were warm from the grill, on top of a bed of arugula and a slice of goat cheese. Three mushrooms were positioned around the plate on endive. This salad was excellent. Highly recommend. Alex J. ordered the oysters to start. They were cool, firm and delicious. The side of horseradish was an excellent compliment. For my entree, I ordered the salmon and our waiter talked me though the sustainability of the fish at my request. This dish was superb: the fish was perfectly cooked and the sauce was light and bright, my favorite way to enjoy fish. The plate was surrounded with fresh corn, carrots and tomatoes. We had a side of Brussels sprouts which were roasted with bacon and onions. These were very well prepared--tender, caramelized and smoky. Alex J ordered the fresh catch which was a char prepared very simply, broiled with the skin on with olive oil, salt and pepper on a bed of asparagus. The skin was crispy and the fish was moist and flaky. The dish was light, fresh and sweet. To finish we ordered the butterscotch panna cotta which was topped with walnuts and sea salt paired with a biscotti. This was a fantastic meal and the service was impeccable. Well worth it.

    If you dine here, you have to ask for the Server named "V", he's amazing at anticipating everything you might need, and is truly one of the best servers I've ever encountered anywhere. In fact, he wasn't even our server the first time we went to Eddie V's, but he noticed that our server wasn't pulling his weight keeping our beverages full, bringing us more bread & butter, etc (which is, sadly, typical wherever I go to eat). V made it great! As for the food, it's very good, but a bit heavy (ie. lots of butter, cream, etc) and not exactly a bargain. But their lobster tacos are great (if you don't mind butter dripping from them) and their Banana's Foster cake is awesome (but the ice cream they top it with tastes cheap, like store brand ice cream that's been softened, mixed with nuts, etc and then re-frozen. I really ONLY enjoy truly homemade ice creams from scratch, or Haagen Daaz or Gelato Vero. Anything else tastes like foamy pond scum to me. But the cake itself is delicious, as is the foster sauce it's served with. Maybe I should bring my own pint of Haagen Daaz ice cream to top it with, and it would be true heaven! Oh, and the live Pianist they have in the bar adjacent to the dining rooms makes for a very relaxing, elegant experience, sure to charm the pants off your date!

    Another restaurant down for restaurant week. The service here is definitely A+. I was running late and had to change my reservation to an hour later and that was not a problem. That was definitely a good sign. We were seated promptly when we arrived with no wait. Their restaurant week menu was great! $50 for 3 courses. Our server, Kai was extremely attentive and helpful in giving us recommendations. We finally decided on the shrimp and lobster bisque for starter, the filet mignon and the filet mignon with scampi for entree, the twice baked potato and corn for small sides, and the creme brûlée and banana foster cake for dessert. The shrimp and lobster bisque was terrific. Make sure both entrees were tasted great except they made it more on the rare side even though I asked for medium rare. Eh, that was quite a let down. The same applied for both dishes so I guess ask for medium if you mean medium rare. I was definitely not used to eating medium rare on the rare side. As for the dessert, the creme brûlée was good (can't really go wrong with that) and under Kai's recommendation we went for the most popular dessert--banana foster cake. Eh, it was not so much to our liking. The dessert was very sweet, rich, and buttery. It does flame up though so that part was pretty cool. Overall, I had a great experience at Eddie V and Kai made it even better! I'm really glad they are open until 12am! Oh, and they do have valet parking but if you don't want to pay for that, there is plenty of free parking nearby. It might be hard though since it is next to seaport village.

    Ate dinner here for Valentine's day. We had reservations at 8:30PM and waited a couple of minutes but that's okay. After we got seated, I couldn't help but stare at the interior. It was so classy and chic. I think they did a wonderful job with this space. Anyway, we ordered the lobster and steak tartare for our app. Wow, It was amazing!! I could NOT stop eating it. I ordered the chilean sea bass and my boyfriend ordered the filet mignion. Honestly, the chilean sea bass was like nothing I've ever had before.. so flavorful and the portion was a generous size. I really wanted to get lava cake but we were so full... ahh next time!! Overall, everything was good but we waited more than 30MIN. for our main entree to come out. No big deal though, because the food made up for it.

    Our time here was fantastic, the waitress was lots of fun. A very elegant casual environment, beautiful restaurant. Our steaks were juicy & well cooked to order; my lobster was out of this sea (haha). We had an enjoyable time here. After the post birthday celebration we took a walk at Seaport Village. Magical night.

    Words cannot explain our experience here. The restaurant just screams out romantic, classy, and everything you want. We were there to celebrate a special occassion, and they did not skip out on the decor of our tables. Our table was lined with rose petals, and the entire staff for the evening gave us a personalized welcome card. Our server Kai was beyond excellent. He was very helpful in assisting us in choosing what food items to get, and delivered such a personalized experience. He did such a great job in describing the menu to us, that my mouth was salivating from the brief conversation we were having. My girlfriend got a shrimp entree, and I got the scallop entree. We both decided to get the Crab Fried rice as well, as everyone seems to rave about it. The scallops were so buttery, I wanted to cry. The way Kai described it was exactly the way it tasted. The crab fried rice on the side as well was so flavorful. I could not get enough of it. I really enjoyed their last gesture of giving us a free dessert of our choice since we were there celebrating our special occasion. Next time I am in town, I definitely would enjoy coming back to this restaurant.

    #1. Customer service. We were greeted with a very warm smile at the front desk entrance and sat in the lounge area. Our waitress was amazing. She was fast, attentive and quick to place our orders. The appetizers and main dish was outstanding! The waiters and just everyone was very attentive and simply excellent and they cleaned the tablecloth in between the appetizer and main course which was outstanding attention to detail and service comfort for us. #2. The appetizers are scrumptious! I ordered the Lobster Maine Taco and my lady ordered the Butterflied Oysters. It was amazing. #3. The main course was a Salmon dish and I ordered the Scallops. I'm very picky about my scallops and these were cooked to perfection by a Chef there that knows what their doing!!! #4. Finally: drumroll!!! The bathrooms were impeccably clean! I've been to some ritzy restaurants where the bathroom was just plain nasty. This shows that the people that work there care and the manager is attentive to cleanliness all over the restaurant. They obviously hired the right people to work here! Overall, this restaurant was a fantastic experience. I highly recommend going if you want to experience the taste but it is a classy spot so be prepared to spend about $100-150 depending on what you order for two (2). Include a tip!! They deserve it. This place is well worth the money. This is a great place to impress a date.

    We had an amazing dinner! Our waiter, Adam, is the best! He knows his stuff! Lite, LIVE jazz drifted from the lounge. The music was perfect. We started with the lobster bisque. It paired well with our dirty martinis. For dinner I had the Nantucket scallops and she had the stuffed shrimp. We shared a side of Brussel sprouts & bacon. Everything was out of this world. We ended with the hot chocolate Godiva cake. Every bite was a little taste of perfection. Had I not been in my little food heaven I would have remembered to take a pic of our meal. I can't say enough about this place. Can't wait to go back. I look forward to writing many more reviews for Eddie V's!

    Amazing food! Definitely pricey but worth it for a special occasion. My whole family spent 2 nights down in San Diego (from LA) and decided we would like to have dinner here together. We all live in different states and took a "mini vaca" to SD. The hostess found this out by talking to us and asked if we would like their private room so we could have some quality family time in a quieter area! How awesome is that?! The private room has a large table that sits about 12 people (if I remember right). The bananas foster is to die for and my husband and I split the 16 oz USDA Prime New York Strip Au Poivre with Cracked Black Peppercorn Cognac Sauce. OMG TO DIE FOR! So so sooooooo good!

    The food and the service here were outstanding. We tried the kung pao calamari, it has a spicy kick but full of flavor and the portion was a nice size, perfect for sharing. For the main course we tried the filet mignon with crab on top and served on a bed of asparagus. They have a huge selection of wines and a full bar. Our servers Tara/Laurie were simply wonderful, they constantly checked on us. We got fresh bread as soon as we sat down which made the whole meal simply fabulous. I almost forgot to mention they have live entertainment in the lounge 7 days a week. This place is perfect for romantic dinners, birthdays etc. My husband and I were so impressed, we will be going back really soon.

    Amazing...my wife is a gourmet cook which makes finding a place that prepares food as good or better than her very rare and in most cases very disappointing. Eddie Vs had us both smiling in that we finally found a place as good as home! Food is a amazing, everything we tried from Salads, Lobster, scallops, etc. and desert was excellent. Our server was very friendly, funny and helpfull. A perfect dinning experience! We were also pleasently surprised when we received our bill...worth every penny! We will be back every chance we get. Now if we could just get an Eddie Vs in Vegas!

  • Eddie C.

    Staff was excellent, food superb, and drinks were strong. Crab cakes - delicious flavor. As close to Maryland as possible. The crust was thin and the crab was soft. Perfect flavor, the only draw back is it's one per order. I could eat that as a meal. Halibut - delicious and perfectly cooked. I would have to say that this halibut ranks in my top two, and I lived in Alaska for a few years, so I know good halibut. Filet Mignon - 8 oz is just the right amount. Salt and pepper was all that was needed. Flavor was perfect. Snap peas and mushrooms - peas were crunchy and tasted great. Perfect amount of salt from the soy sauce. Twice baked potato - a nice think crusted potato layer on top and easily shared between two.

    First night in San Diego and relied on Yelp to look for a place to eat. Eddie V's had 5 stars and we were skeptical to see how good it was. The food was amazing! My boyfriend's dad enjoyed the wine and the atlantic sole! My boyfriend loved halbert fillet. I lovedddd the crab cake and the scallops. THEY WERE ABSOLUTELY BREATHTAKING. the crab cake was ALL real crab, the scallops were very fulfilling! We were stuffed so don't overorder! The truffled mac & cheese was amazing as well!!

    Is it possible that a place is perfect? YES!! And Eddie V 's certainly is! Went there for HH. Ambience - perfect. Decor was inviting, smart, and really lent itself to making u comfortable. Great sky light above the bar, full of sun, large windows, view of the bay. Jazz band was great. Service? Perfect! From the host to the bartender, very professional and courteous, and knowledgeable about every item on the menu. Food? Yep, u guessed it - perfect!! I got the dumplings which were tender and full of shrimp and pork, in a very flavorful broth. My friend and I shared the truffled mac'n'chz that was to die for, as well as the broccoli with garlic and lemon, so good! I was eyeing someone's lobster tacos which I will be getting next time for sure. Gee, I think I just made myself hungry :). Great food, super service, reasonable prices. What more could one ask for?

    This was our first visit here and it WILL NOT be our last. The upstairs lounge has live music every night and is the perfect location to grab a small bite and glass of vino- or gorge your inner fat kid. The pot stickers are a nice light starter. We had the Bananas Foster and it is BY FAR. - THE BEST DESSERT WE HAVE EVER HAD! Worth every single calorie. Ps. It is my mission in life to tell as many people about this dessert- oh yeah and recreate it.

  • Ellen S.

    I was so disappointed after reading all the positive reviews. We should have walked to another restaurant when we walked in and the hostess said "Can i help you" without even looking up. We ordered the calamari which was pretty good. My husband ordered the evening special, filet with shrimp scampi on top. His meal was cold and tasted unlike any steak I have had at a place that is supposed to be known for its steak and seafood. The ahi tuna app I ordered for my dinner was okay. We should have ordered the crab fried rice as our meal as that was the one thing worth ordering albeit also cold. All in all we were very dissapointed. The waitress was good and attentive but unfortunately we will not be returning. Good reviews can sometime be misleading.

    Really do not know where to start. If you are in the neighborhood to celebrate a anniversary or just a date this place is the best place. Parking can be a hassle sometimes due to the location it is in. However, parking was easy to find and does cost a lot. Better to park down the street and walk a bit. (Great view as well) Had reservations there around 7pm, and was seating rather quickly. Our server was very nice and very attentive every time I ran out of water. The food was amazing. I ended up ordering their Rib-eye, as well as calamari appetizer and crab fried rice. Everything tasted very divine. I enjoy to eat rice with my steak, and this place beats out a lot of places. The pricing was fair, and the special they had for the night looked amazing. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is in the area. Great place to have steak and seafood. Everything was great.

    My favorite steak was at LA prime at Westin Bonaventure, but management changed and it was never the same again. Came here for my 2 year, the service exceeded my expectations and the new York strip with the cognac sauce has become my new favorite steak. Avoid the jazz bar if you're with your lady cause it gets loud and difficult to hear one another. Last comment, my waitress kept mentioning the banana pudding dessert, but the godiva cake with vanilla ice cream. . . I never thought I would finish the dessert after a 16 ounce steak lol it was amazing. My better half has a new favorite restaurant :)

    My original destination for dinner was The Cheesecake Factory, but I called an audible when I saw how relatively low-key this restaurant was. Once I entered, I was instantly thankful for my change of choice. The decor was definitely upscale, but not so much to the point where one would feel uncomfortable dining there in "less than formal" attire. The live jazz band played well enough to notice them, but weren't so loud that they'd drown out a conversation with a dining partner. Now for the food. Started with pot stickers. Perfect balance of soft and crispy, with a filling that complemented the soy sauce well. For the main course, I chose Florida grouper with a side of crab fried rice. Never had that kind of fish before, but it was light and flaky enough to try again. The real winner for me was the rice; particularly because they didn't skimp on the crab. Not imitation crabmeat or itty bitty pieces of crab, but actual chunks of real crab! Overall a wonderf- "Bananas Foster butter cake with butter pecan ice cream." I didn't have room for dessert, but that description absolutely compelled me to make room! And so I did! And...let's just say it was definitely worth the 6 to 8 miles I'm going to have to put on my elliptical to burn it off! Bonus points for the bartender who, despite being very busy, took the time to help me navigate through the maze of the building to find the restroom.

    This is an upscale restaurant if you are celebrating some occasion. The decor and staff are welcoming. They import their lobsters from south africa and you can definitey tell the difference between those and the ones found in Maine. They also have delicious food items for the terrestrial beings.

    We expected the best, and they delivered. Upon arrival we were immediately greeted by 3 waiters to care for our party of 8. Professional, courteous, on time and well dressed. We began with the calamari. When returning, we now will always begin with the calamari. Simply outstanding. Perfectly cooked, perfect texture, spicy and sweet. Although the seafood menu looked like a lineup only few could dream up, I opted for the filet oscar. It was prepared in 3 medallions topped with lump crab meat served over asparagus. Cooked perfectly, and taste was excellent. My wife ordered the lobster tail. Her summation? The best she had ever had. We asked for a variety of sides to be brought, which included brussel sprouts, potatoes and beets. All were very good, I surprisingly enjoyed the brussel sprouts overall. Others commented that the beets were good as well. Dessert time we once again opted for the full menu approach. All desserts were cleared pretty quickly. All except for the key lime pie. Being from the south, several experts in key lime pie offered their opinion stating the texture was off. We did love the chocolate mousse cake and banana foster. We will look forward to another visit

    This was my second Eddie V's experience with my first being at their location in Austin, TX. The venue was fantastic and the bar was a great choice for a couple cocktails before dinner. The hostess came and got us when it was time for our reservation (we arrived early) and our table was ready. We were led upstairs to our table, and since my girlfriend and I were celebrating our anniversary, our table was covered with rose petals and included a card signed by the staff. A nice touch, for sure. We started with the calamari, which was a little spicy but lightly fried with nice, big pieces. For dinner, I had the grouper which was a nice, thick piece of fish, lightly breaded with a lemon and butter sauce. It was simple and the fish was the feature of the plate as it should be. It didn't need any fancy sauce or glaze or seasoning. It was delicious. My girlfriend had the sole, which was an enormous piece of fish. Two pieces in fact. It had a nice crispy crust on it and was also delicious. Finally, for dessert, we ordered the creme brulee and split it and the words "Happy Anniversary" were written in chocolate on the edges of the plate. The whole experience was fantastic and we will be back whenever there is an Eddie V's near us on our travels. Check em out.

    Perfection. Everything about this place was superb! Waitress was friendly, nice, efficient and her suggestions were perfect. We shared: Corn and crab chowder - Mouthwatering! NY Steak - juicy and flavorful! Filet of Sole - Best fish dish I've ever tasted! Twice baked potato - amazing and well worth the calories! We will be back for sure next time we are in San Diego again.

    Had a group of 12 there. poor service.. waited 2.5 hours for our meal that was obviously sitting around-- dried out, hard fish, etc. wait staff started out great then virtually ignored us..... wait staff not trained to know who to give what to or how to serve. (dropped grease on my boss's wife blouse!) On the good side the management made good on adjusting the check and honestly apologized. Could be the "new opening" rush of people and not being prepared to handle the crowds.. but you shouldn't open until you are truly ready.. doubt we will come back to "test" it again.

    This place is great for private parties. We had a large room upstairs. There was plenty of space for us to mingle before sitting down for dinner. The service is great. The waiters made sure we had enough appetizers and drinks. Dinner food and service was excellent.

    calamari was a huge boat includes many flavors compound style the rice noodles were a little weird and a bit too much else does sauce carrots peppers were perfectly compound and delicious enter the heirloom tomato salad had two huge halves of off-color and huge orange tomato with small with Smosh of mozzarella A splash of olive oil delicious there is live music that ends at 11 PM very very light and very refreshing metal plate easily get hungry again the service was quick efficient polite and engaged the atmosphere was more casual was more than casual feels "dressy "as the attire assigns small side must mushroom truffle macaroni and cheese not much to say about it 3.5 out of 10 I lean towards not recommending steak was rare but not bloody or meet tasting wine $12 Pinot was especially excellent steak was a $30 steak that costs that they charged 47 1600 bottle wine tower is really something to see! The steak well it's not Ruth Chris same price but Ruth Chris has D delicious steaks and sides but... Peppercorn was prominent and cooked to my specification and something unique they verify at the table with the flashlight and have you cut your meat in half the sauce seemed unnecessary I had a prime New York strip 16 ounce with cognac and mushroom cream reduction sauce

    While the food was amazing, the ambiance and noise level are the reasons for the 4-star review. My wife and I were seated in the main dining area on the far wall across from the wine cellar. This was right behind and beside families with loud children. Due to the stone walls and open area, the noise became magnified and not conducive to the quiet dinner we desired. While we should have informed the hostess upon making our reservation, I also feel that we shouldn't have been seated in this area to begin with. The waiter was also a bit over zealous with continually organizing and attending to our table to the point of annoyance. The waiter reaching all the way across the table after our main course to remove the unused, small, salt and pepper shakers from the table, was just one of the multiple examples. The manager did come around towards the end of the meal to ask how everything was. We mentioned the ambiance issue, but not the waiter. We were offered a couple of after dinner coffees and he apologized for the trouble and said they had many other quiet areas to sit, which would have been great to know ahead of time, as this was the first time dining at this establishment. I'll certainly hesitate to return if we're in the area again, but again the food was outstanding.

    We went to Eddie V's Very disappointed My husband went to the one in Scottsdale He loved it San Diego's left a lot to desire The bisque was good The center cut filet was not center cut & over cooked The lobster fried rice was cold The appetizers were not good We definitely won't be coming back to this Eddie V's.

    This place has a really great happy hour with live jazz starting at 6 on week nights...food was really good, we had crab fried rice, pot stickers and the calamari. We thought it would be small portions, but they were huge and we were totally stuffed. Can't wait to go again.

  • Kathy P.

    WOW! This was the best restaurant that my husband and I have been to since moving to San Diego 6 months ago. We live in Little Italy where there is an abundance of excellent eating establishments, but Eddie V's surpasses them all! My husband wanted to surprise me, and take me somewhere we hadn't been before, for a well deserved date night. The hubby knows how much I LOVE scallops, and even though he read a review that the scallops were not very large, that is just not the case. These scallops not only were large, they were the best prepared scallops I have ever eaten, ever! I'm from San Francisco, so I know good seafood. My husband had the 12oz filet. OMG, he gave me a few bites and I thought I had gone to steak heaven. Melted in my mouth like butter and cooked to perfection! Hats off to the Chef and his staff! Now for the service. I travel a lot and have had great service, but Eddie V's staff can't be matched. We were greeted by a friendly yet professional staff. We were early for our reservation but seated immediately. Our server Paulie, arrived at our table almost instantly. She had a warm beautiful smile, was gracious, sweet and sharp! She timed all of courses impecably. She had the Chef fire each course right on time. We had a beautiful table in the lounge area. Great ambiance,and a wonderful trio playing in the corner. All around great experience. Can't stop telling our friends. We look forward to returning.

    Eddie V's is great for what it is. It's an upscale chain restaurant that delivers quality consistently. It's great for business dinners and lunches. It's shoots for classy enough, and hits it. Our service was great, our food was prepared well and the atmosphere was great. The live jazz was just present enough to appreciate and just quiet enough to not dominate the experience.

  • Rebecca H.

    Service was good but the food was nothing special. I'm in San Diego I expect something a little more inspired than a slab of salmon that must have visited the sun to be that well done. The key lime pie dessert was still frozen even after it had been flambéed. If I want frozen desserts I will visit the supermarket. If you're looking for a great experience keep looking because Eddie V's is not it.

    We received some special service at Eddie V's. They were quick to seat us,and the ambulance was very warm and friendly, with tasteful touches. The food was generally well done, although we were a bit disappointed in desert. We had the bananas Foster, and they weren't up to the standards we had expected from our trips to New Orleans. The soup was very good, particularly the lobster bisque.

  • Brigitte H.

    Fabulous location. The ambiance is so inviting. Different rooms give you the option of quieter dining or being part of the live music which was wonderful. The "Jumbo lump Crab Cake" was the best I have ever tasted, no fillers, just pure fresh crab meat with a very tasty remoulade. The New York strip steak was perfectly prepared medium inside, crispy and very tasty on the outside. The fish I chose was Sole with garlic- lemon butter. Fresh, moist, perfect. The twice baked potato was incredibly tasty. All huge portions. The desert, Banana flambé pudding...I don't usually like desert but this was incredible, caramelized pudding with the ice cream, wow. Our server was so knowledgeable with detailed explanations of every dish which very helpful. What an incredible experience!

    (5)
  • Kathleen P.

    Food was good but not outstanding, service was slow, and the live music was super loud and terrible. It was like being stuck in hell because you couldn't leave since you were paying a lot of money for your mediocre fish, and you couldn't even pack it up to go because the waitress would you leave you for an hour on end. Pretty disappointing since it's supposed to be one of those good fine dining chains.

    My husband surprised me with a late Valentine's Day dinner at Eddie V's last night ! We drove all the way from LA to what was a wondering dining experience. The ambiance was high class and the service was the GREATEST I have ever received. They were so attentive and friendly. The service really can enhance or break the experience and Eddie V staff went above and beyond. Food: -Get the hot crab cake! So delicious! -get the truffle Mac and cheese -Sautéed spinach garlic and Parmesan is a great side dish! -the steak was just ok which is why i took a star off. It was cooked to a good level but it could have been more tender. I expected it to be more tender since I ordered the ribeye bone in. I think it lacked the flavor of what I'm normally used.

  • Ash L.

    For the price- it doesn't meet expectation. The only reason why me and my boyfriend came here is because we had a $100 voucher. We had the steak and lobster tartare, swordfish, 22oz ribeye, truffle mac and cheese (all recommendations from our waiter). I dislike that you order sides separately. Our server also kept coming back every 2-3 minutes (4 times to check on what

    We had dinner at the new Eddie V's located in The Headquarters downtown. The staff was very professional and friendly I would say Five star service, great service is hard to come by in San Diego. The food was great and prices were higher, but for the quality of food you get very reasonable. My wife started with the crab and corn chowder which she says was one of the best soups she has had. For dinner we had the Pacific Ahi Tuna and the Georges Bank Scallops with Twice Baked Potato with Bacon and Chives and Steamed Asparagus, way to much food for just two people. We were very happy with the five star food and service and will be return very soon. We even hared that they have a great happy hour and will try that next. Its nice to see quality restaurants coming to downtown San Diego. Food 5 Stars Service 5 Stars Atmosphere 4 Stars Value 5 Stars

    I was in San Diego the last few days and had the pleasure of dining at Eddie V's in La Jolla. Man oh man the the Scottish Salmon was supreme.

    I have to say this is the best place that I've ever been to in San Diego! Very nice setting, severs are excellent! Food is fresh and well prepared. We are here to celebrate my bf's bday. They wrote a card for him. The half shell oysters are so fresh. My bf's ordered the ribeye and I ordered the lobster tail. Food is amazing. You have to order the banana foster. I love the place, will definitely recommend it to my friends.

    For our last night on vacation we decided to have ourselves a fancy dinner and fancy is what it was! We had made reservations so we were promptly seated and our waiter immediately came up and addressed us by name (nice touch) and introduced himself. We decided to start with the potstickers which were delicious. We decided to just put in our appetizer order first as we looked the menus over a little more, but when we were done another waiter immediately swooped in and said he wanted to make sure we weren't waiting for too long so that he could put an order in if we were ready. Don't know how our original waiter felt about him swooping onto his table like that, but we just saw it as a nice gesture because maybe he genuinely thought we had been milling around for a while. For dinner I had the crab stuffed shrimp and my boyfriend decided to go with the filet - the waiter also made sure that my boyfriend knew that he could get a better value with the filet special they had going on that came with shrimp scampi and something else on the side for only a couple bucks more than just the filet itself was. We decided not to order it though because we knew it was too much food for us and we couldn't take anything home since we were staying at a hotel and leaving the next morning, but it was nice that he was watching out for us as the customer. We also decided to go with a small side of agratin potatos and the truffle mac and cheese as well. All the food was on point and we finished all of it but 1 shrimp that I just could not manage to stuff into me. We didn't have dessert since we were so full, but it looked equally as good. An appetizer, 2 entrees, 2 small sides (which we thought were just the right portion) came to just under $100 which we were totally ok with for the quality of food and service. Granted had we both had cocktails and dessert it would've been more. If you're staying next door at one of the hotels, I definitely suggest the easy walk across the street for a nice dinner that isn't at a hotel owned restaurant!

    Party of 5. We had many dishes including appetizers, main entrees, sides, and, of course, desserts. Everything was prepared wonderfully. Portions are large enough to share; we even had food leftover. Bananas foster was probably the star of the evening. Wait staff was responsive and made us feel welcome. Yes, prices are higher than average, and so is the quality of food/preparation.

  • Joe W.

    First the good. Service was excellent. Decor tasteful but surprisingly loud for Tuesday night at 6pm. Jazz in background drowned out by noise. Then the bad.....food. The food is bland. Nothing special and not enjoyable. High prices but not high quality. $20 crab and shrimp salad. The shrimp and crab weren't good. They didn't taste fresh....tasted frozen. The dressing was plain. Small amount of shrimp and crab for $20 salad. Greens were ordinary. $22 Roasted chicken. Way too much salt and no real flavor. $9 large side of crab fried rice. Very little crab and salty greasy rice. Very disappointing. $9. large side of Mac and cheese. Supposed to have truffle flavor....couldn't taste it. Bland cheese. $9 Sugar snaps with Portobellos. The snap beans tasted frozen. Didn't have the texture of fresh snap beans. The portobellos didn't have much flavor. $10 Bananas Foster. The best of the night. Good ice cream and cake with whipped cream also. Like a three course desert. I wanted to like this place but the food just wasn't worth it considering the great options we have in downtown San Diego. The lounge looked nice and the music was mellow. Might go back to the lounge for the happy hour in the future. But won't be back for dinner.

    This was your typical Seafood and Steak house. It was fancy and expensive. It wasn't the best I've had nor was it the worst. I ordered the North American Sole and my buddy ordered the swordfish. I ended up enjoying his entree more while he preferred mine so it worked out perfectly. The Crab Fried rice was yummy! Our server Melissa was friendly and attentive but the hostess could probably be a little friendlier and less snooty but that is just my humble opinion. It probably won't make much difference but I'll put it out there anyways. Not sure I'd come back though- with so many other seafood and steakhouses to try this didn't leave me wanting to return.

    We just celebrated our wedding anniversary with an exceptional meal at Eddie V's. From the rose petals on the table, the card signed by the staff, the delicious crusty bread, the wine suggested by our waiter Andre, the lobster tacos, shrimp and lobster bisque, Halibut for me, Filet Oscar for Sam, the brussle sprouts, crab fried rice, and the crème brulee. Wow I wish my anniversary was every weekend!

  • Steven E.

    We enjoyed the ambiance, the wine, and the food. I had the 12 oz. filet, which was a bit too much for me. Meanwhile, my fiancee got the halibut with morel mushrooms that was absolutely amazing! We also appreciated the hand-written birthday card from the staff and the follow-up phone call from our server the next day to ask about our experience.

  • Carl L.

    Excellent all around: service, food quantity and quality, bar drinks and ambience. My wife had the Lobster Tacos, followed by the Wild Mushroom Salad. Her main course was the North Atlantic Lemon Sole. I had the Jumbo Lump Crab Cake, followed by the Lobster Bisque. My main course was the 8-ounce Filet and Broiled Cold Water Lobster Tail. For sides, we shared Sautéed Monterrey Style Sweet Corn, Crab Fried Rice and Truffled Mac and Cheese. About the only item I would even downgrade slightly would be the Filet Mignon, which was a bit over-salty for my taste, but I'm over-sensitive to salt anyway. Everything else was literally perfect. I agree with others who said the Crab Cake was the best they've ever had. The Lobster was cooked just right, with no hint of toughness. My wife's Lemon Sole was done to perfection, with a rich, buttery taste. The corn was fresh and cut off the cob on-site, rather than the typical frozen most restaurants serve. The Truffled Mac and Cheese was outstanding. The Crab Fried Rice was very tasty, without having an overpowering crab flavor. The bartender knows how to make a drink. Not overpowering with alcohol but not watered down either. Just the right amount of alcohol and mixer. The perfect final touches were the free Bananas Foster and the Birthday Card they gave me that was signed by all of the employees. A nice touch. Although Eddie V's is not a place we would visit really often (prices are pretty high), it will now be our go-to place for special occasions and if we really want to impress someone.

    This place was the perfect environment for couples who are looking for nice romantically setting. The ambiance of the restaurant was perfectly crafted with lovely live music, excellent service, and the young lady server was very attentive without being overbearing. The food was prepare to our liking, from the appetizer to the lobster bisque, our steak with lobster and side dishes where properly portion and the delicious desserts where to die for. I most definitely recommend this place.

    We made our reservation through Yelp, we were greeted by last name and sat immediately. Patricia was our server, she was very friendly and helpful with suggestions. I had the scallops and Mac and cheese. My fiancé had the Parm crusted fish with the crab fried rice. Everything was great but wasnt a big fan of the Mac and cheese, it was just a bit bland and dry. The service was great, I would totally recommend this place. Was a bit upscale but well worth the money. The next day we were called to see how our experience was, the fact that they cared enough to follow up was awesome!

    I wish I could give six stars on experience alone! This was our two year anniversary celebration. My husband made the reservations ahead of time. They called the day of to confirm. We get to the restaurant and they have rose petals and a card on the table for us. Our waiter, Corona was amazing to say the least!!!!! We started with champagne to toast our celebration, complements from our waiter. Then we dove into the Menu!! My husband had the oysters and said they where really good. I had the potstickers and let me tell you they where amazing! Oh forgot to mention the bread is very good too! Then we had salads I had the BLT iceberg salad and my husband had the Caesar salad both salads delicious! ( Mine had really good bacon on it) MAIN Course ... Mine was the 22 oz bone in ribeye, this ribeye was perfectly good and so flavorful. Husband got the Sea Bass and it was very tender and flavorful too! Our sides we decided on where , Asparagus and the Truffle Mac N Cheese. The asparagus was cooked very well and came with a sauce that complemented the veggie. I did not care to much for the Mac n cheese , was little to floral, however husband loved it! We enjoyed a bottle of Moscato with dinner , if you love moscato's, I recommend The one they have on their menu. Final course Dessert , which was on the house for our Anniversary, Hot chocolate Godiva cake, OMG chocolate heaven ! I was going to have a cup of coffee with my dessert , however I was talked into a cappuccino, instead, the best decision ever , thanks Corona! He recommended to sprinkle the sugar in the raw on top of the cappuccino, Heaven in a cup !!!! Overall this was one of the best food experience we have had! Corona made it even more special! We will return !

    I had Rachel as a server and she was extremely accommodating. Given my tastes, she recommended the seafood salad paired with the Pinot noir from Macedonia. It turned out to be a great recommendation and I was pleasantly surprised how well everything went together. If you're a seafood lover, you won't be disappointed! The seafood is definitely prime! Rachel informed me everything is wild caught and with the exception of one dish (from Alaska) everything is fresh as well!

    Took my other half here for his birthday, I was really hoping it will be good and oh boy I'm so glad it is. Food was super delicious specially the Sea Bass, it just melts in your mouth good. Shrimp with crab stuffing was also good as well. Can't wait to come back here again.

  • Bill G.

    I gave Eddie V's a second chance and I am glad that I did. As the name suggests, it is prime SEAFOOD that they specialize in. I tried the filet mignon on my first visit and was not real impressed. This time I focused on the seafood and I absolutely loved it. Eddie V's has a very diverse menu of seafood not seen on other local fish house menus. Florida Grouper and Louisiana Redfish are just two varieties that are not normally seen in our local dining scene. So much for locally sourced, but I am ok with that. The Marina Marriott lists local albacore on their menu. We have not seen an albacore in local waters for about five years. The closest albacore right now would be about 1,000 miles from here. Unless the Marriott has a special fishing hole that no other San Diegan knows about. Local Albacore indeed! Back to Eddie V's. I got the grouper and my friend had the redfish. Both were excellent quality and very well prepared. This is prime seafood! it sure beats a hunk of tasteless meat on a plate with nothing else. (my previous filet mignon experience). Both fish dishes had excellent sauces and accompaniments. The Au Gratin potatoes were excellent. The sautéed spinach was very good The hot bread and butter was very, very good. The wedge salad was full of water however. Not good. The water diluted the dressing and really ruined the salad. I would rather have a quarter head of lettuce than a half of a head. Who wants to fill up on iceberg lettuce? The salad was topped by two whole slices of bacon. Unfortunately the bacon was so salty it was almost inedible. The hot chocolate cake was very good. The Key Lime dessert was also very good. The music in the lounge was fantastic. A mix of Frank Sinatra, Chuck Berry, to the Beatles. Very Jazzy. What a treat to have such classy live music venue in downtown San Diego. Eddie V's still has some work to do, but you cannot go wrong with the prime seafood, sides, dessert, and music. It is truly a unique experience not to be missed.

    Best swordfish I've ever had. Grouper was cooked perfectly. Apps and sides were good. Service was amazing and the drinks were strong, too. Can't wait to go back.

    I have been going to the Austin, TX location for roughly 7 years so I was excited to try the new location in the Seaport Village area. I was not disappointed. The building is beautiful. Very open and not dark and depressing like some high end restaurants. My reservation and requested location in the V Lounge were accomodated without any problems. We had a fantastic location for our table and our server was fantastic. She was very attentive. She even saw that my wine glass was near empty and was over in seconds to ask if I needed another. The wine list was excellent and commented how it was rare to see Dumol Chardonnay on the list of bottles. My Fiance' had been looking forward to this for years because she knew that I was a big fan of Eddie V's. She ordered the Lobster and Steak appetizer and the Parmesan Crusted Sole. I ordered the Jumbo Shrimp with Crab and we shared the Twice Baked Potato. Everything came out perfect and we even were asked by the manager at the end of the meal how everything was. We of course said it was fantastic. This is exactly what you would expect from an establishment in this tier. When you spend $200+ for two people for dinner, you have high expectations. When there are so many options like Mastro's, Flemings and others, it is hard to stand out abut Eddie V's has definitely mastered the formula. I will return often when I come into town.

    I just love this place! We always like to go into the lounge because of the music. This night it was Chris Cerna. I had never heard them before! I LOVED them! It is so special to have a place that has beautiful music that starts at a reasonable time! The food is always fabulous! I always have the Ahi poke and Eddies is the ONLY place where there is not one fragment of grizzle! Always like butter! My only worry is that it is always quite quiet during the week! I would be devastated if it were to close for lack of business! Wait staff and bartenders are always kind! My husband always likes to try different places..trendy...etc..blah...Ive tasted enough to know...Eddie V is the best!

    Not much of a chain steak house kind of girl but I will own up to the fact our dining experience at Eddie V's was surprisingly fabulous. Our server Andrea was sweet and attentive and we never had an empty glass of water or empty dish lying around because the bus boys were on it. We decided to try them out during restaurant week and we were not disappointed. The Maine lobster and shrimp bisque was creamy and had several pieces of fresh lobster in it. It was a bit on the salty side but overall very good. You could really taste the fresh seafood and the hints of cognac. The filet mignon with gulf shrimp scampi was very well cooked. I ordered mine medium rare and the temperature was on point. Nice and red in the middle. The shrimp were fresh, sweet, and very well cooked. Not to mention the asparagus spears bed, perfectly cooked! If you check this place out do not miss out on the twice baked potato it is so good! Creamy, buttery, cheesy, bacon...need I say more? We also tried the truffled mac n cheese which was good but truffles and all didn't top the potato. By the time dessert came around we were already in a food coma but couldn't pass it up. The flambé bananas foster with butter pecan ice cream was delicious! Warm, gooey banana goodness. The hot chocolate Godiva cake was very good too. Not to sweet but rich and decadent. The vanilla bean ice cream was a good compliment to it. They have a very extensive wine list.

    A girlfriend and I stopped by for dessert and drinks one evening. Best Bananas Foster I have ever had! Service was great too. Matt and Jesse made a great team and made sure we always had a drink. They must work together a lot because they were the best bartenders we had that night, and we went to several places. I'll be sure to always bring the girls there for girl's night out from now on. Thanks, Matt and Jesse! ;)

    Fantastic food and great service! We had a group of 12 and they gave us a separate room, very well decorated in a modern style. The waiter, Adam, helped us pick great appetizers and entrees and generally took great care of us. Special favorites were the lobster fried rice, oysters, bananas foster, and various types of steak.

    Not as nice as la jolla but a close second. Food was a little bit fresher tasting here but service and view were not as nice. I called 3 times to change my reservation because I was running late and when they finally answered they put me on hold for over 7 mins.

    Excellent meal and service. We made reservations for my son's birthday and as soon as we arrived, we were escorted to our table where there was a bday card waiting for my son from the staff. We were told we should order the crab cakes by the server, the restaurant manager and by friends as well. So glad we listened to everyone. It was one of the best things I've ever tasted. We ordered lobster bisque as well which was fantastic. For dinner, my husband and son ordered meat and my daughter and I fish. The meat was like butter and melted in your mouth. The fish was delicious as well. Our sides were the Mac and Cheese and Asparagus. The asparagus was a little undercooked but was perfect the next day. My son was treated to bananas foster for his bday which was a great ending All in all an incredible experience and a very memorable meal

    Not just a steak house it's a fish house. A delicious and very pricey fish house. I think this concept works in other states where fresh fish is not readily available but here where fresh fish is everywhere I skip it and go eat elsewhere. Budget about $100 a person.

    Me and my husband went here for dinner yesterday after spending the day at Seaport Village. Awesome food, drinks and service. Love the jazz band. The waitress and waiter were so attentive to bring you great service. This is one of our favorite restaurant in San Diego.

  • Jacqueline R.

    This is a super late review but my husband and I find ourselves reminiscing about our experience there. My husband made reservations the day he proposed to me, they set up a table with rose petals placed on the white table cloth, as well as a letter of congratulations signed by everyone. KAI was our waiter, we still talk about him and find ourselves comparing his service to waiters of other high end restaurants. They just can't compare, he was exceptional. Our meal was fantastic, and Kai's wine recommendation was spot on. My husband had an amazing Rib Eye and I the Halibut. At the end of our meal we received a delicious dessert on the house. And when we thought we couldn't have felt any more special, we received a letter in the mail a few days later thanking us for celebrating our engagement with them. So yes great food, great service, when we go back to San Diego we will definitely be dining there again. :)

    I went here for the first time on Wednesday. I had a wonderful experience. Ate the lemon sole and enjoyed it very much. The employees were really friendly and attentive. Erin was my server she was very helpful and knowledgeable. Cesar also helped me every time I needed or wanted something when Erin was busy I never needed to ask for more water/bread/drinks etc. They crumb your table when it's dirty... How awesome The atmosphere was also nice. All in all a great experience, I'll come back soon.

    Eddie V's Prime Seafood was great!!! The food was amazing! They had a live jazz band and they played some of my favs! I had a really good time with my girlfriend for our anniversary dinner! They prepared the table with rose petals and a nice card signed by the staff, very romantic!! Overall a great night thanks Eddie V's!!

    Everything about this place was amazing. We went here for the last night of our honeymoon and everything was perfect. Our waitress was exceptional and the food was perfect. My wife doesn't like seafood, so she ordered the steak and it was cooked to perfection. Do don't have to like seafood to like this place. You definitely have to give this place a try.

  • Merry K.

    Mixed feelings about this place.. Bread and butter was great My dad had the steak and lobster tartare; he loved it and said it was out of this world Restaurant week menu had the Blt salad... I asked them to have a different cheese besides blue cheese and they said no. What 5* restaurant says no to switching the cheese?! Had to get no cheese instead. Salad was fine bacon good but plain iceberg and a lot of it. Filet minion and twice baked potato.. My filet came out oddly shaped and looked strange for what I know as filet (and I know!). Went to cut into it and was virtually unable to. And fatty pieces. I told the waiter and they brought me a new one which was worlds better. However.. Ruth Chris filet was still muchhhhhhh better. And I mean MUCH. Twice baked potato was really good. My dads spinach was overcooked and very buttery. Dessert: good! All three were good, not amazing but solid and tasty. Mine was a bit too chocolate for my taste. I liked it, the Jazz music was good, and if I had gotten a proper steak the first time around I would have liked it better. It makes me weary that a restaurant with their stature and reputation would even serve me a steak like the first one they brought out. My waiter was sarcastic and unapologetic. He said "guess occasionally a bad cut slips in there". Wouldn't the chef or waiter see that it looks off/fatty and not cook nor serve it? Might come back, not 100% sure though.

    Food was just perfect from start to finish. Very good Scallops and Steak. Also very fine craft cocktails to get you started. Banana foster butter cake is also a must for dessert.

  • Lina C.

    This review focuses on the service rather than the food. I'm not sure if it was because it was the first day of restaurant week but we were stuck in the restaurant for three hours. Our backs began to get sore. What's worse was that the entire table received & finished their desserts before I received mine. Livid & prepared to never return to this location again...Justin, one of the managers made it up to us. It was not just the fact that he comp'd our meal, which was a must, but he apologized profusely & truly cared about our frustration. He gave us his contact info & assured us that we would receive better service next time. He was extremely considerate & we are definitely impressed. We will be back next week!

    My husband, baby, and I came to dine here on Saturday May 15, 2015. We had spent all day packing and moving from our apartment and I wanted to make that day a great birthday for my husband. I called around 10:45pm to make sure they were taking reservations for that night, the lady said it was fine to walk in. We arrive a bit before 11pm. everything was fine until our waiter came to take our order, my husband needed a minute but he told us that he was sorry but the kitchen is closing and they were already mad because they took us in that late. He was then nice enough to give us a minute to decide. At that moment, I felt very uncomfortable. I think it was very rude for him to mention that the people in the kitchen were not happy. He was rushing and seemed stressed out. I could understand the pressure, but from experience in working in a 5 star hotel, I know what is ok and not ok to say to customers. if it was any other day, it probably wouldn't have bothered me as much, but it was my husbands birthday and it was our last dinner together because he just left for deployment. The food was outstanding, but how could I really enjoy a delicious dinner while feeling so uncomfortable? I wanted to leave the moment he made that comment, but my husband didnt want the evening to be ruined. Not to mention he didn't bother to offer any drinks, my husband had to ask him twice to get the cocktail menu. Towards the end of our dinner he comes to ask if were planning to order dessert, of course I wanted dessert! My husband deserved a nice dessert for his birthday! But after that, we agreed not to even bother. When he went to tell the people at the kitchen that we didn't want dessert, it's as if they were all glad we didn't, I even over heard one person say "Thank you!". I think the most appropriate thing to do from now on, is to simply say you're not taking reservations or walk ins at that time because I'd rather that, then to have an uncomfortable dinner.

    If I could add more stars I would. This was the most awesome restaurant experience I've had in a long time. My friends and I celebrated a birthday last night, August 9th and I made reservations on open table. At the last minute 5 more people wanted to join us and I called the restaurant to increase the group. They were SO gracious to accommodate more and when we got there we were in a private glass room upstairs!!! Kai was our server along with a couple of others and they were dressed in jackets and bow ties and were the friendliest ever! absolutely the very BEST! Thank you Eddie V, Kai and the rest of the crew.

    Walking into the restaurant last night I remarked to my companion, 'this place smells like sex.' I fashion myself a foodie and my first Eddie V's experience did not disappoint, the crab, phenomenally fresh, the Caesar, original and refreshing in preparation and flavor, the seabass, unlike any I have had since ten years past, the truffled Mac n' cheese, among the best I have had. Bravo Eddie V's, bravo!

    Wonderful food and service! My family and I had dinner here last night and had a variety of appetizers, entrees and desserts. All of them exceeded our expectations. My absolute favorites were the crab cake and calamari for appetizer, the crusted fish with lemon cream sauce for entree and the banana fosters for dessert was to DIE FOR! Our server was wonderful as well :) I strongly suggest!

    Eddie V's was the destination of choice last night for a few friends and myself. It was our first time since they opened a few months ago. We were VERY pleased by the experience!! The seating was comfortable, the wait staff was wonderful -- perfectly attentive w/o interrupting. The menu had amazing choices that were well-prepared and delicious!! We tried 5 of the entrees and everyone was pleased. Scallops, halibut, salmon, sole, and crab -- all perfect!! Family-style side dishes were a pleasant touch. PLUS, live music in the bar. If you love fish . . . Eddie V's is your spot!!

    Dinner last night was amazing. The service was perfect - from the friendly hostesses to our server, Adam. His recommendations were friendly and helpful. The manager, Mario, even stopped by to check in and see how we were doing. Dinner was delicious - we started with the lobster and steak tartare - scrumptious! My chopped seafood salad was full of crab, shrimp, avo, blue cheese and candied walnuts. His crab-topped jumbo shrimp was a nice-sized portion. We also had two sides (truffle mac 'n cheese and crab fried rice) which were delicious - but since we were already eating such rich foods, we had to take some home because we were too full! Love the local beer offerings, too!

  • Danni S.

    The appetizers are quite filling, we ordered the batterfried oysters -- 5 large plump oysters with a dollop of yellow curry sauce on top, each sitting on pickled cucumber and crispy lotus root --amazing!! We also had the Maine lobster taco appetizer -- 2 taco's filled with sweet lobster claw meat -- also delicious but messy (as expected). Our entrees were: swordfish which was cooked perfectly-- so tender and moist with a pile of crab and avocado and a hint of red chili & citrus--the flavor was bright and fresh; and the halibut which was also cooked perfectly and served in a more rustic preparation over a bed of tender edamame, sweet corn and smoky nuggets of pork shank in a rich smoky sauce. Unfortunately we were too full for dessert!! Next time we'll just order ONE appetizer!! Our waitress, Ashley, was attentive, personable and gave us excellent information on the menu options!! Looking forward to a return trip!!

    Wow. As good as it gets in every aspect. The other day my boyfriend and I decided to treat ourselves to a nice dinner just because. He recommended this restaurant since we had yet to try it and we love seafood. What an experience! Everything was five stars from the moment we came in. I swear it felt like VIP treatment. We had a 6:30 reservation and decided to try out the happy hour first. The bartender was super friendly. He even covered our first round of drinks! Also he offered to take our picture and was nice enough to keep taking them until we got one I liked. We also got to chat with the manager. Great guy, hooked us up with a giant crab cake. Phenomenal! Then we were escorted to our table right on time by the hostess and then greeted by our amazing waiter, Todd. Best service I have had at any fine dining restaurant. He recommended we try the fried oysters, after I said I have never had oysters. He was so convinced we would like them he bought them for us! Of course, they were incredible. Then, I ordered the Lemon Sole, per his suggestion. The boyfriend got the Swordfish Steak as his entrée. Also, we got a twice baked potato, and the truffle mac n cheese. Everything was incredible! The food was ridiculously good. So many flavors and everything was prepared perfectly. I appreciate great food, especially when you're paying good money for it, but the impeccable service is what really made this place stand out. The fact that we were not even celebrating anything, we are in our 20's and were still treated like VIPs was terrific. I will recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves seafood!

    We've been to the locations in Austin (pre-Darden's) and La Jolla, and loved both. As expected, this new downtown San Diego location did not disappoint. The bartenders, servers and food runners are professionals and know what they are doing. The food is amazing - we didn't order anything special, just the yellowtail, the Caesar, the scallops and a filet, but Eddie V's has a found a way to make even standard seafood/steakhouse fare taste amazing. The live music in the V Lounge was a little loud at first, but it didn't take away from the experience. Highly recommend.

  • Mark W.

    I've been to many Eddie Vs in various cities, so I know what to expect and have yet to be disappointed. The Chilean Seabass is, in my opinion, one of the best things on the menu. Incredibly tender, cooked to perfection with a delicate, light, tasty miso sauce. Ambience here is on par to other locations, though, this might be one of the nicer ones. Maybe, though, it's just the fact that it is in beautiful, perfect San Diego. That could be it! But, nonetheless it was awesome, great staff, drinks, food. The company that runs this establishment really excels at creating a flawless experience at all of their restaurants, which I usually cannot say about too many franchises. But they do keep on top of all their restaurants and nothing seems to slip through on the quality of the food and the entire experience. Bravo to them!

    Not a cheap dinner ($250 for 3 with a bottle of wine) but was still worth it. Great service, fantastic food. Sometimes nice restaurants leave you feeling as if you did not get good value for your $. Not true here. Definitely a great place when you want to enjoy a special night out!

    Let me start my review first off stating that I have a heavily tattooed husband...and it's quite often and sadly not uncommon that he gets stereotyped or treated differently bc of this. However at Eddie V's, we did not experience anything like this at all and in fact, we had a wonderful time backed by an amazing server and even more amazing food. We came last week for Restaurant Week and I couldn't have asked for a better dinner! We arrived early bc we weren't sure about parking Downtown...and sat in the bar to grab a cocktail while we waited for our table. The bar staff was great and checked back with us often and the hostess even came and got us once our table was ready (so we didn't have to keep getting up to see). Corona was our server and he was great - how can you forget a name like that? He was very attentive and personable. I had the potstickers appetizer and it was a very hearty portion - I was surprised! My husband had the lobster bisque which was like butter in your mouth. We both had the filet for dinner with truffled macaroni and cheese and sweet corn sides (the corn was the best!). Bananas foster topped off the evening for dessert. At one point, I had gotten up to use the restroom and couldn't find it for the life of me! And a staff member saw me and literally escorted me in the right direction. Most other places would have just pointed and gestured with their hands. I give 5 stars for food and 5 stars for their staff...everyone we came across (hostess, bartender, server, busser) were on point!

    Where do I begin to tell you how wonderful our visit to Eddie V's on Harbor Dr. was. We were greeted promptly and seated in the lounge. Our server was Demenica and she was so amazing. We got to meet Mario, Steve the beer man and had the most incredible food and service. There is not one bad thing I can say about our meal. I highly recommend a visit to their restaurant and I am sure you will receive the same great treatment we did. Thank you for a fun evening.

    So sooooo happy hubby and i decided to eat here for din after circling all of Seaport Village. Thought we'd pop into the bar, get a drink and nosh on appetizers. We were pleasantly surprised at the attentive staff, white tablecloths, and best of all a jazz trio playing great old time tunes (think Mad Men)in the corner. Atmosphere is great: warm and inviting, and somehow makes you feel COOLER than you really are. Ha. Hubby had the Lobster tacos and was in Heaven! I had the Wild Mushroom and warm goat cheese argula salad and it was fantastic. I could not get over how delicious the dressinf and the mushrooms were. Their complimentary warm bread & butter was deliciously crusty on the outside and nice and chewy on the inside. Our waitress was super attentive and offered my hubby a free dessert for his birthday. We were so stuffed, but we ordered the creme brulee, thinking it would be small. It wasnt. Took both of its to finish. Very yummy and they wrote Happy Birthday on the plate in chocolate. The drinks were spot on too, no complaints. We left very happy to have made a new discovery. This place was worth every dime for the QUALITY, quantity, atmosphere, and servive.

    Impeccable. Not sure how to quite capture the amount of win this place puts down. I brought our most significant client here for dinner on Tuesday night and came away looking a lot smarter & more sophisticated than I really am. We did appetizer special (Halibut cheeks) through dessert (out of this world Panacatta) and every single bite along the way was truly amazing. The service was incomparable from reservations through a followup phone call the next day. Our server Andrzej was truly a credit to his profession. I can't say enough how impressed I am with the level of professionalism in every aspect of their operation. Easily one of the best restaurants I've visited. I feel embarrassed to say it, but we were so engrossed in conversation that we hadn't noticed the place closed...an hour ago. No one said a word to us. I happened to look at the hostess stand to see the staff quietly waiting for us to finish. I'm so sorry and don't recommend that anyone test this level of service. All I can say is that I am awed by the quality of this restaurant and truly thankful. The whole team at Eddie V's has my sincere respect and appreciation. I'll be back with more friends. Five stars isn't nearly enough.

    AMAZZZING!!!!!!! If you want the best steak you have ever had; go here!!!!! My husband and I wanted to take our daughter here while we were in town visiting her and we were so happy we did. My husband and daughter were In Shorts and T-shirts and I was in jeans and a tank top. We were not sure they would allow us in. Lol. They welcomed us right in and that was just the start of a great experience. Had a great waitress who was a sweetheart. I ordered the roasted double chicken breast, my husband ordered the 22oz prime ribeye and my daughter got the jumbo shrimp. Our starter was the calamari and our sides were the asparagus, twice baked potato, and Augratin potatoes. Where do I begin? My husband is a very serious steak man and has eaten steak at some of the finest places. He was speechless and in heaven. I tried it myself and is was pure butter. My chicken was juicy and outstanding. Asparagus perfectly cooked and other sides were so good. Our daughters jumbo shrimp had crab stuffed and she ate every ounce. She said she never had better shrimp. We ended our meal by splitting a creme brûlée 3 ways. We only did this because we were stuffed, but had to try it. What a great ending to a perfect meal. Thank you to the cook for truly sharing his art with us through his food. Thank you to our waitress, who we only know by her beautiful brown Italian curly hair. She was awesome!!!! We will see u on our next visit

    Wonderful place!! Service was above and beyond great! Came for our anniversary and had let them know at the time of making reservations. We went to the bar first for happy our drinks. Bartender was very nice and pleasant to talk to. Drinks were really good and jazz atmosphere was relaxing. Definitely would come back for happy hour. They had our table ready with rose petals and a nice card from them. They greeted us with using our last name which added a nice touch. People in other post commented about the decor of the place. It has some history to it. Older bldg and kept some original parts to it. As to why it is a different layout. Ask about it:) Got the calamari, it was really good. Bread they bring out was good but not as great as thought from other reviews. But good and warm:) Wine selection was awesome. Need some time to look through it Got the t-bone steak with was pretty good and halibut. Halibut was good and light. Not a lot of flavor but was good. We ordered the Mac and cheese because everyone raved about it. Not that spectacular, sorry. It was good but I have had better. Really wanted desert but we were so full. Saw what others got and looked good for presentation. Would have been nice to get a free desert sample or something for our anniversary. Amount if money we spent that night they could have done something. But they did make the night special for us and I enjoyed it all. Highly recommend !!!

    So I did a Yelp search for Restaurants near where I was staying at for my mini vacation to San Diego. This restaurant immediately caught my attention because of it's perfect 5 star rating with 80 reviews. I had to give Eddies a try because I've never ate at a restaurant with a perfect rating so I was so excited. Honestly the restaurant is very nice both inside and out. The host and server were very very friendly. Here is why I give Eddies a 3 star rating. I ordered the Steak and Lobster tail and the crab fried rice due to reading other reviews saying how delicious it was. Well my 8oz steak came out burnt black to a crisp and the meat was not even close to what a $75 steak should taste like. It was actually quite disgusting to be honest but I didn't want to say anything because the food came out at 10:45 and they closed at 11 so what's the point. I ordered medium rare and it literally came out well well done. And boy the crab fried rice was honestly the saltiest thing I've ever ate in my entire life. It was like there was more salt in it than rice and crab. Lastly, there was an annoying drunk lady at the bar sitting 10 feet from my table laughing and talking obnoxiously my entire time there which completely ruined my experience there. That is not the restaurants fault though, but just another reason why my experience there was not a 5/5 like everyone else's was. What a horrible way to spend $200 on a dinner that I was so excited to try.

    Food taste and service was excellent. We went to their happy hour. To star Martinis with their own blue cheese stuffed olives. Then calamari and oysters Drinks and food are reasonable priced... in every bite /sip you could taste the quality of the ingredients between the flavors . Worth mentioning is also the ambiance.. excellent Will definitely return for dinner, lunch and/or happy hour!!

    Went here last night because we heard it just opened and we love the la jolla location. The restaurant is so beautiful and our table was ready when we got there but as soon as we saw the bar area and jazz music playing we switched for a booth there. Loved it and we had Melissa for our server she was super sweet and the service from everybody was outstanding. So happy this location is closer to our house. We had lobster tacos, yellowtail sashimi and crab cake. It was delicious!

    The hubby and I decided to give this place a try, thanks to gift certificates Eddie V's sent out promoting their new location at Seaport Village. Honestly, we thought we'd have a decent meal on their dime and probably never go back... WRONG! Their marketing team knew what they were doing... I'll be back NEXT WEEK for those amazing batterfried oysters!! The fish was fresh, portions were pleasantly nice sized, and the wild mushroom, arugula, and goat cheese salad was delish... But it was the Service that knocked it out the park. Megan was the perfect mix of personality and professionalism, and her suggestions increased our overall dining experience immensely. Next time we WILL save room for the bananas foster cake, I promise. A special thanks to the manager, Steven, for looking out for us and making sure we were happy. The entire staff, including Gabriella and Cristina and the random server who gave me a full restaurant tour (thx!), went above and beyond. Rare indeed and really nice! Oh, and the live Sinatra-esque music in the bar was a fitting touch. The only change I'd love to see would be a Zinfandel added to the wines by the glass menu;)

    Found this place through Yelp and the ratings didn't lie. What an awesome evening. The food and service was excellent! If you have room, I would highly recommend the Bananas Foster Yellow Cake with Butter Pecan ice cream for dessert! The music was also really nice. I'll definitely keep this place on my list and would love to revisit the next time I'm in San Diego.

    Went here for our 30th anniversary dinner. Upon mentioning this they got all excited. Set us up in a semi private booth with flower petals and a happy anniversary card signed by the staff. Our server Andréa was so sweet. She mentioned her favorite was the fillet with a partial order of Scallops. Did not realize that was my wife's favorite thing so she ordered it and was not disappointed. I had the fillet and lobster tail and it was to die for. We split a Caesar salad and a side order of twice baked potatoes. It was all more than we could finish eating. If there was a downside it was the bread brought before dinner. It was not warm and very hard. We like soft warm bread but would not mark down our review for this minor detail. I look forward to returning here again soon.

    Had a $50 off coupon from Amex which meant I had apps, entree, and dessert for free! Service was great, parking was $3, music was too loud, food was excellent. I had trout and baked Alaska for dessert. Portions were enough for 2 people.

    I never knew this place existed until I got a $100 voucherfrom the managing partner in the mail to try them out!I'm soooo glad they sent it!II took my d aughter who just turned 11 for a post birthday dinner with one of her school mates on monday night.It was delicious.I started with the lump crab appetizer which was really good.For my entree I had the Scallops in the brown butter(Delicious),My daughter had the 8oz filet which she said was outstanding.Her schoolmate was able to get a 4oz filet(child's portion)which he also enjoyed. We had the broccoli side as well as the asparagus for the table.Both were very good.I think the prices are in line with other fine restaurants.Our waitress was really sweet and super knowledgeable.The manager for the evening came over and introduced himself when we were finished with our meal(He gave me a card aand I misplaced it so unfortunately I can't give him or our waitress personal props).He was very gracious.I thought the decor was cool. The live music was very nice.I will go back for sure.

    Went here for our 50th wedding anniversary with friends. Open Table reservation which worked great. Service excellent. Food marvelous! I had Halibut and Corn and Crab Chowder, husband had scallops and we shared a side of Brussel sprouts. It was all great. They comped us dessert which was so nice. We had a great meal and great time. Busy, a little noisy, but our waitress was one of the best!

    First time at Eddie Vs lured in by the $100 gift card sent to our home. Beautiful restaurant. Great service! They even had a birthday card signed at our table, nice touch. Our server Trevor was really great, he helped me choose my wines and I enjoyed both that he recommended. We started with the crab cake, we like that it was mainly crab but it was greasy. I had the scallops they were AMAZING. Trevor said they would be the best ide ever had and they were. Cooked perfectly with a nice carmelization and a good size too. I ordered my toddler (yes they even accommodate kids) the truffle macaroni and it was superb, I could eat a whole side of that alone. We also had the crab fried rice and broccolini which were very good. My husband got the Sole but it was greasy. We had the bananas foster for dessert and the butter cake that comes with it is unreal, yummy, sticky, goodness! Overall it was great dinner and I would definitely go back.

    Went there for our wedding anniversary. Started at the bar with specialty cocktails and enjoyed the live music. Nice mix of jazz and contemporary. We really appreciated the special touches they provided - congratulatory wishes by staff, flower petals on table, complimentary dessert. Our waiter was excellent, friendly and personable without being too intrusive. Food was excellent all around. I started with the tuna tartare which was prepared with a little sesame and curry oils to give it just enough of an interesting flavor without overwhelming the ease of the tuna. Then I had the steamed Chilean sea bass, also with a subtle teriyaki sauce. I was a little skeptical about getting steamers sea bass, but this was by far the best preparation of sea bass I have ever had. The fish was light and delicate and the teriyaki sauce added just enough flavor to complement the fish. And the bananas foster dessert was awesome. We will definitely be back.

    I rarely write reviews, but Eddie V's was simply too good not to! I went for a busiiness dinner with some senior executives from my company visiting from our Virginia headquarters, and the experience was first class. Superior service, a large number of well-trained professional wait staff that knew the menu, could answer questions, and were ready with recommendations. Several of us had the Grilled Shrimp and Jonah Crab, which was very tasty. All fresh, with a very nice seasoning that enhanced the flavors. The Lobster and Crab Bisque was decadently rich, and the sides were equally well-executed. A superior wine list, although unfortunately not very many local San Diego/Ramona wines. Pricey, but worth the price for special occassions, certainly. If you enjoy Lou & Mickey's, ARV at the Lodge at Torrey Pines, Prado, and other places of higher caliber you'll enjoy Eddie V's! They actually had a Jazz ensemble playing, on a Monday night!

    We wanted to give Eddie V's a try since it recently opened in the "Headquarters" area between Seaport Village and the Midway. We can't say enough good things about our experience. Our waiter, Adam, was outstanding as he guided us through the menu describing the various dishes and even accommodated a special request with the chef to switch around a preparation of the halibut. We ended up having a filet and the halibut with half order of twice-baked potato and sauteed spinach. The meal was truly outstanding and the service outstanding as well. There are a few places left in San Diego to go for a great meal. This is one of them !

    Our waiter ruined our experience at Eddie V's, which is a disappointment because the food is quite good and our first experience at Eddie V's back in May was great, and our waiter that time was fantastic. This time was a completely different story. My boyfriend and I nicknamed our waiter "Johnny Upsell" almost immediately. I have worked in many restuarants over the years, and am aware that as a waiter, you are expected to try and upsell but you do not have to go overboard or get rude when someone doesn't take your suggestions. We actually went there specifically for restaurant week because I love restaurant week. Our waiter immediately tried to steer us away from the restaurant week menu and was then pretty rude and standoffish once we told him we were going with the restaurant menu. I was basiclally ignored for the remainder of the evening, although he was pretty pleasant to my boyfriend. I will say the food was good, but I will not be returning any time soon and if I ever have the waiter again, I will not be staying.

    this is now my second visit to eddie's. i went back last night and i had so much fun! the manager girl lindsay was very nice, helpful and had a big smile the entire time. sat in the bar and megan & lauren took it from there and really ensured that we had a fun time. the soup is really good and you have to try the fried oysters. all the food is outstanding but the scallops are the best!! this could be the best restaurant in SD
