An elegant, understate & sophisticated (in-the-know) hot spot ! Chef has it all down… There is such a unique selection of creative dishes that easily accommodate whoever we bring along as a quest, that we frequently come here. Some of the dishes are complicated in structure but not “stuffy,” but others are comfort classics. …. Love the little piggies at the end of the evening.

Pamplemousse Grill is one of the best French restaurants in San Diego County. Usually a special occasion place but plenty of locals come in and sit at the bar to enjoy Happy Hour specials.

Once you get past the feeling like you’re walking into a doctor’s office, its all top tier from there.

Not sure why this place is rated so highly, some of the food was good but some was disappointing. The tuna tartare was excellent but the bison was not. The stew was excellent but the chocolate caramel cake tasted like a melted lava cake and had barely any flavor of caramel. Chairs were not comfortable. We felt packed in like sardines with barely any room to walk around the tables. It most certainly was not worth the prices they were charging.

Such an amazing restaurant! The food is always so good and the service is always great. We had John as our server tonight and he was so attentive and very welcoming! Atmosphere: it was a very busy Saturday night and we were originally seated in a small table in the middle of the room. There were so many people and everyone was unmasked. We were able to sit outside in the patio with a heater which made our dinner just perfect! We weren’t cramped in a small table among a very busy restaurant. Food: the filet mignon was so tender and perfectly cooked. Broccolini was seasoned and the truffle fries was spectacular! The seafood trio was fresh, delicate and scrumptious! The free 3 different types of pre-meal breads were so good too accompanied by a whip butter with truffle salt. We also had the old Smokey which is their old fashion. The in-house smoked simple sugar and muddled oranges makes this drink so good! Service: John was outstanding he made sure we were taken care of even though we were outside. Would love to sit at his table next time. The hostess was also very nice and accommodating. This is such a great restaurant! Our place to go when we are visiting!

My friend and I had a great experience! We sat at the bar during happy hour for a less formal setting and really enjoyed our meal. Ordering off of the happy hour menu and splitting the dishes is a great way to go! It is pretty pricey otherwise. I would recommend trying it out for yourself! Yummy yummy!

Sadly I didn’t take any pics of the glorious food. Couple of recommendations-1. Pork Chop 2. The cod 3. NY steak med rare 4. Truffle fries with a shrimp appetizer 5. The sashimi is a hit also. This place is really good, the staff is great and on top of the things, even the owner came out and shot the breeze with us. If you have a party of 10 or more get the back room.

What a beautiful place for your date night or special occasion. Quiet and well socially distanced ambience in a tent set up outside and the dishes were superb. We had the cajun fried oysters (first time trying cooked oysters but give it a try – we were not disappointed), the meat sampler plate.

Nice tasting food, classy but old school. Good quality ingredients and preparation. Corporate entertaining, dinner spot for the rich and bougee. A bit over priced, by design tho. Older crowd.
