    Place needs work inside. Service was good. Steak meals were great. Stick with steak. The truffle pasta looked like Sunday church potluck and wasn’t very good at all.

    We had an amazing experience with the chef’s hand selected menu. The tuna tartare was so refreshing and the salad had this poppy seed dressing that was soo amazing! The lobster pasta was to die for, but the best course was the wagyu, hands down!

    Upon entering, the first thing you'll notice is the restaurant's elegant decor, establishing an atmosphere that exudes warmth and sophistication. The rich tones of the wooden furnishings, the gentle lighting, and the soft music create an ambience that is inviting and conducive to a relaxed dining experience. The service at Greystone Steakhouse is noteworthy. The staff is professional, friendly, and keenly attuned to the needs of the customers. They are knowledgeable about the menu and are more than willing to make recommendations if you find yourself unable to decide between the plethora of mouth-watering options available. The star of the show, however, is the food. Greystone Steakhouse boasts a menu that is as diverse as it is delectable. The steaks, in particular, are a testament to the culinary mastery at work here. The wagyu is a standout – rich, tender, and perfectly seasoned, it simply melts in your mouth. The accompaniments are equally as enticing, with a variety of side dishes and sauces that complement the steak beautifully. Their seafood options are also commendable, with fresh, delicately prepared dishes that cater to pescatarians and steak lovers looking for a change of pace. Moreover, the restaurant also offers a comprehensive wine list, featuring selections from all over the world, catering to various taste profiles.

    San Diegans come for the world-class cocktails and incredible steak – prime beef dry-aged for 21 days in greystone’s legendary windowed meat locker. The combination of all-natural dry aging with a perfectly seared steak is second to non. Beautiful private room in the back cellar as well

    If your coming for anything other than steak good luck. All other entrees are Par. Service was way below par. Well our waiter anyway. This was my 2nd time here. Was actually better the first time I came. Gave this place another shot and got let down again. Let’s just say I can get better service at Denny’s. I won’t ever come back here, sorry. This place is very overrated.

    The price they charged compared to the quality of food is the worst I've experienced in awhile. I can spend a quarter of what I spent and cooked myself a better steak then the ones they served. The $39 3 sampler appetizer was completely not worth it. The crab cake tasted funky like the crab had gone bad. They sat us at the bar area, but they wouldn't let us order from the happy hour menu. The only thing that was good was the wedge salad. I would not bother wasting your money here.

    We purchased the 5 course Chef Mel, but as Foodies, were very disappointed that there was very little preparation or presentation by the wait staff For 2 people, our bill was over $400, and definitely was NOT a good value. I would recommend just order off the menu for much lower costs. Food was prepared nicely, but I would have referred, the waiter to introduce himself & name, to explain the process of the evening of what to expect, or at least ask if we have done this before, explain WHAT & WHY the Chef selected the food, and HOW it was prepared. CHEF, your food was excellent, but educate your wait staff.

    We waited for quite a while for someone to notice us at our table. The waiter showed up and said he had just started his shift and didn’t know someone seated us at his table. Not many vegetarian options. All you could have was a salad.

    Simply amazing. For dinner we tried their 6 and 6 chef’s feature, which is 6oz of A5 Japanese Wagyu and a 6oz lobster tail and it was to die for! Great cocktails too. I had the Greystone-Tini and my friend got the smoked 24 karat gold old fashioned. Both were delicious and came with a beautiful presentation Service was detailed and on point, exactly what you would expect from a fine dining establishment such as this one. Thank you Greystone, we will be back!!

Cooked to perfection! Lobster mac & cheese was incredible! My Greystone martinis were delicious and his old fashioned was smooth and smoky. I couldn’t be happier with our experience at Greystone. We’ll definitely be coming back!

    I was treated for throat cancer last summer and couldn’t eat solid food for 2 months. One of the things I promised myself when I recovered was to go to San Diego for a few days for a mini vacay. I was going to treat myself to a fancy dinner including my first Wagyu steak with a lobster tail thrown in. I was disappointed with the steak. I imagine Wagyu is probably an acquired taste but it seemed like a lot of fat. Probably should be expected from the large amount of marbling but not worth $180 to me. The lobster was a bit dry and rubbery. Not what I’m used to with lobster. The service was excellent. I’ll go back. But I’ll probably just get the rib eye and loaded baked potato. Maybe give the lobster Mac and cheese a try.

    Food was good. Service - fair at best. There was one server who seemed to try to take care of everyone. My server was clearly occupied doing other things. I ordered onions with my filet that didn't arrive until after I asked and they were cold when I got them. The restaurant was clean and nicely decorated. Based in the service I received on a Sunday night, I wouldn't recommend this restaurant unless you are able to sit at the bar where it would be difficult to be forgotten.

    Came here for restaurant week so it was our first time. We were so excited to come but maybe it wasn’t a good night. Seems like they were short staffed, and that’s okay, I get it. However, our steaks were over cooked. We were so hungry and didn’t want to wait so we just ate it. We watched the tables around us and noticed that 3 other tables sent their steaks back. I could see from where I was sitting that their steaks were also overdone. For a steakhouse that specializes in steaks, you’d think they would get it right. I spoke with the manager who was very nice and she said that their burners were on too high. I am, in no way, claiming that I know how to cook the perfect steak, but even if the burners are high, can’t they tell just by touch, the temperature of the steak? I honestly think that it sat under the warmer after it was cooked, and continued to cook under the light until someone could finally take our meals out. The garnishes looked wilted so I’m assuming that’s the case because if they took it out to our table right away, the garnishes would look fresh. We were disappointed with the experience, probably won’t come back. We paid about $100 per person after drinks for the pre fixe menu. I don’t want to have to roll the dice on whether my dinner is going to come out well or not. I’d rather go somewhere that’s tried and true where they know how to cook a steak.
