Herb & Wood

Came here for date night while in town. I was so happy I was able to get a reservation before we went into shutdown. The staff was amazing and the food was so tasty. We ordered the sea bass, pizza, and mushrooms and a few other salads. Everything was eaten. The decor of the restaurant was beautiful. Can't wait to go back.

I feel like San Diego’s food scene always underwhelms me, but we’ve finally found a restaurant we’re excited about! This one is fit for foodies! Try the hamachi appetizer for sure. The scallops in curry sauce and the Iberico pork were also exceptional. Delish! And the service is top notch, too!

Amazing atmosphere and service. Perfect spot for a date night. Good specialty cocktails. Very nice presentation of every plate.

Great place, great decor and vibe, food was great, service was great

We were there the last night before the governor shut down outdoor dining. Everyone was happy and very attentive despite the looming shutdown. Brian Malarkey came out and made his rounds to all the tables. The food was outstanding and we will definitely come again when restaurants open up again!!

It was wonderful, as usual! Thank you :)

It was Delicious We will definitely be going back!

Good food in a classy yet festive environment. A nice outdoor patio for dining while social distancing.

Great ambiance, excellent service. Food was a bit disappointing considering the reviews... good Italian food needs more simplicity.

Thank You to Jeremy and the team for making the Thanksgiving Holiday Special. Excellent Service and Food, we appreciate the extra effort during these special times we are all experiencing.

Thanksgiving - it far exceeded my (our) expectations. The reservation process, the dinner and everything about the meal was exceptional!

First experience, but Thanksgiving and a set menu. Service really slow, but may be due to Covid-19 staffing.
Overall ambience is nice, but we were seated below a exceptionally bright recessed light, which slightly took away from the nice lighting provided in the restaurant. Music was a great selection, but a bit loud for a holiday meal...still we appreciated it.

The food was good except that the turkey my husband ordered tasted like fish. We wondered if they were cooked in proximity to each other.

I will go back on a non-holiday to get the real experience.

Great Thanksgiving meal! Our server was exceptional. The cocktails were on point. The appetizers were very good and the main courses, though a set menu, provided options for every palate. Chef Malarkey taking pictures with us by chance when we arrived, especially the time he spent with our granddaughter, was very touching.

Staff is very well trained. We had the Thanksgiving meal. However our 3 mains did not arrive at the same time. 2 came first and it was a good 10mins before the 3rd one came, and by the time we all started to eat, the (delicious) gravy had congealed into a glob. Shrimp appetizer was really good, hamachi not so, it didn't taste very fresh. Prime rib tasted great, swordfish a little overcooked. Could improve on the plating for mains. We really enjoyed the sides and apple-pear pie - cranberry compote was a favorite!

Our family had Thanksgiving Dinner at the restaurant. The service, ambience and of course the food were outstanding, all while maintaining an outdoor dining experience that felt safe during COVID. Thank you for making our holiday special and memorable.

We really enjoyed the thanksgiving dinner and the options . We will come back to dine from the daily menu. Thank you

Great food great service.

Some some amazing food, wine and cocktails... had one dish that was salty. I would come back for sure!

They went above and beyond for our anniversary! They made sure we felt special. The drinks and food were outstanding. Herb & Wood is a must!

It was clean and food was 👌🏻

Our waiter (Jeremy?) was fantastic and helped to make it a great night!

Bogden provided excellent service. The food was wonderful and the overall experience was superb from beginning to end. Thank you Bogden! You’re the best!

Food and venue were both amazing! The server could have been more attentive and welcoming and the drinks could have had better presentation, but the quality of the dinner was amazing.

Lovely evening with friends on the day before shut-down (ugh). Wonderful selection of appetizers and entrees, along with side dishes. Server very informative and helpful on drink selection and entree selection. Sat in the "open air" part of the restaurant which was quite nice. Hope that Herb & Wood can survive another shut-down.

Absolutely phenomenal. I appreciate the great service from the staff and the outstanding cuisine. Thank you!

Celebrated our anniversary. Very good restaurant. Great service. Made our anniversary special. Food well prepared but flavors could be more interesting. Desserts were spectacular. The baked Alaska was amazing.

We were served delicious food and friendly service. We didn’t like that everything was a la carte and the meal wasn’t served with bread. The spiny lobster vodka pasta and side of red potatoes were absolutely delicious!

From the baked brie appetizer to the outstanding passionfruit soufflé dessert, it was a great experience. This was our first trip, but we will return! Great food!

Great evening with my family. Exciting and pricey menu!
Recommend highly!!

Great food, great service and very cool space. We enjoyed the patio with the retractable roof!

Love this place. Will come here again. Food is delicious.

Love the atmosphere. We had the fig toast, hamachi, chorizo pizza and oxtail gnocchi. Gnocchi was on point! Everything else was lacking seasoning and finesse.

Great attention to us from start to finish. Sever provided his own recommendations for food and wine which I always appreciate.

Great food! Everything on the menu was extremely delicious. Highly recommend the food! Although, we didn't really appreciate the server reminding us that we had been there for 3 hours...especially when we had ordered over $1k worth of food and bottles of wine.

Food is delicious and service was even better. The decor and ambiance is very relaxing and soothing.

Hands down the best meal I’ve ever had.

Our waiters were absolutely fantastic, they take pride in their process, someone was bringing us our entrees and realized we didn’t have our dinnerware on the table yet, so they fixed it before bringing the meal. I noticed that and was very happy to see the level of attention they bring to every detail, no matter how small!

Outstanding!! A truly great dining experience. Amazing food.

My favorite restaurant in San Diego. Food is definitely not cheap but if you want a nice meal with great service, great drinks and ambiance, than you get what you pay for here.

We had the shrimp and Brie appetizers. Delicious. Husband had Gnocchi with Oxtail. Gnocchi perfect, Oxtail sauce was thin and a little too tangy. I had the Scallops - a little on the salty side but the dish overall was great.
