I had the Sea Bass, which was very tasty and tender. I know, I'm at a steakhouse, so... my wife and son had the Tommahawk, medium rare. They couldn't finish it so I finished it off and our dog finished off the bone at home. The steak was perfect! Wedge salads and Brussel Sprouts/Bacom complemented the proteins. Overall great experience. I've been to Flemmings before (Downtown SD) and they never disappoint.

Celebration dinner for my new job! Picked the perfect spot here at Flemings La Jolla. From start to finish, it was a fabulous experience. Shrimp cocktail, Beef carpaccio, Miso glazed Chilean seabass, Filet Mignon and 3 Prosecco flutes later, utter perfection! Along with the best waitress ever Haley, it was a perfect setting to celebrate my dream job. What more can I say? We’ll definitely be back to celebrate my first day on the job next month. Cheers! 🥂

We've been coming here for years and Sunday was the 1st time it was not up to par. Perhaps an off night. Delayed service, streaks not cooked correctly, server who made uus feel like we were incorrect which then just made us fake like everything was good to avoid any conflict. Asked for refills of water and the busses who was behind us was polishing glasses...politely asked for more water and he fished his polishing before getting us more water...totally made us wait. Still left 20+% tip as that's the kind of folks we are however will be looking into another steakhouse to enjoy our family time.

We hadn’t been to Flemings in awhile so we decided to go for my husbands birthday. I had the petite filet mignon which was excellent, and my husband had the New York strip, which he enjoyed. Our side dish of asparagus was slightly overcooked to my liking but flavorful. Overall we were very pleased with our dishes and the service was excellent.

The only reason I rate Food Quality "4" instead of "5" is the steak and side order of mushrooms are quite heavily peppered...a bit too much for my palette.

Had a service hiccup in the beginning. I think they forgot to assign a server for our table. The bread guy was there right away with our water and bread but the server never showed (close to 30 minutes) to take our drinks and food order. In the end, they apologized profusely and assigned us a great server (Colton) that made up for the snafu. It was all good after that.

So happy we were able to get a reservation for Father's day. After a day of eating very light, we were looking forward to dinner and needless to say, we were not disappointed. Our food (steaks with toppings) was amazing and cooked exactly the way we ordered. Our waiter, Chip, was attentive, personable and very knowledgeable. Chip made wonderful recommendations for the topping and desserts and they were spot on. We did not have alcoholic drinks that night, but our regular drinks and water were never empty or low for long. The restaurant was very busy and Chip and the staff did an amazing job. We left there full and very satisfied.

I’ve been going to Fleming’s for over 20 years. It used to be my favorite restaurant but now it’s hit or miss. My steak was over cooked last night. They remade it and it was ice cold in the middle. The onion rings were under done and mealy. I asked for a modification on the appetizer due to a food allergy which the manager Carlos said they couldn’t do. I was surprised. I asked them if they don’t try to accommodate food allergies and he seemed bothered. Eventually they brought out something they charged $24 for without telling us the price ahead of time. They comped the onion rings. They should’ve comped the steak I couldn’t eat. Disappointing $500 dinner. It’s probably Ruth’s Chris next time.

Our steak was good. I ordered an 11 ounce filet but I think was only 8 ounces. The filet was sliced thin not like the filet I used to get from Eddy V’s or the Palm. The price was comparable though. I ordered sautéed mushrooms but it was burned I mean charred! I complained and they replaced it and was taken out from the bill. Overall I think was good but not up to our expectations as compared to other upper class steakhouses. Maybe we won’t be back

Saturday - June 11th, for a birthday/graduation celebration. We checked in for our 7:30 reservation, maybe 7:33. I was told it would be a few minutes. 7:50 I went in to ask how much longer. The hostess smiled and said checking in? I said, no I am checked in, that since I have been there I was watching the same table sit dirty outside, and then another table cleared, and watched other parties going in to sit who arrived after me, I am asking how long until we sit down. The hostess, snapped at me with a rude comment. “We are very busy, we are doing the best we can, you will sit as soon as we can” I said I understand, how much longer will it be. She turned to the other hostess, whispered something to her about a manager and said to me it will be a few minutes. We were finally sat a 7:54. When I got back to my hotel I had an email from opentable at 7:54 saying reservation changed - 8:00. Um, no I didn’t change my reservation!!!! the hostess did it to cover her tracks!!! Management needs to know this person did this and handle it accordingly. Food took long but was excellent, server very good. I frequent this location as I visit SD often. This hostess needs to be spoken to or let go. She might have been busy, but apparently shouldn’t be in that job if she can’t handle the customer service in a more professional manner. Don’t think I will be back.

Fabulous restaurant. Wonderful chefs and experienced wait/serving staff combined with great food and ambience. Make sure to order the filet mignon and the mashed potatoes with added lobster. The gooey butter cake dessert with fresh vanilla bean whipped cream makes for a perfect meal ending. We’ve dined here many times and have never had anything but the best experience. A special thank you to Manager Juliana who always greets us with a smile and kindness, stops by our table to say hello and adds the personal touch to our experience. Additionally, Chip was our server last night and did a fantastic job and added to our wonderful night!

Our server Angel was great she was very attentive and accommodating. Our table was missing the glass top underneath the table cloth which made balancing drinks sometimes suspect on the wicker top and my plate was unsteady while cutting my steak. My wife and I had the tomahawk and chipotle Mac and cheese. The Mac was rich and flavorful. Our steak was slightly underdone inside and charred on the outside to the point it tasted of coal making the bite bitter and unpleasant. Maybe the grill was a little too hot or had a hot spot? This is the first time I could give a less than perfect rating for my steak at Flemings. My wife and I have been a guest several times in the past. The past quality has set a high bar. Overall I think I would go back to Flemings hoping the “overchar” resulting in the bitter taste was an anomaly. But I will evaluate other options.
