    Well....just found my new favorite spot in San Diego. The table service Manhattan (best i've ever had and I've had ALOT), the table service Caesar and the table service Snow Aged Wagyu were all so much fun and absolutely perfect. The service was as good as any Michelin restaurant i've ever been to. Just a perfect evening. Thanks to everyone that made my friend's retirement event special.

    Great dinner last night as always. Server Emily was especially attentive, delightful. One of the best servers ever. Food was fantastic; steak and lobster were perfect. The focaccia is to die for. Staff from busboys to managers, were attentive to plates when finished, replacing silverware, and prepping for next course. Jake's is the only place to have special dinners and celebrations.
