    Rib eye agua chile
    Smitha A.

    Where to start? I debated 3 or 4 stars to account for being new and service being awkward. The food itself was 5 star. But the ambiance and the service could use some work. So let's talk about the food. The ribeye agua chile is one of the best things I have eaten this year. The sauce was bright and smoky and flavorful. The guacamole was plentiful. You are really getting your money's worth. The family feast is an excellent deal. Came with 8 quesadillas. They brought half as corn since I am gluten free. The ribeye was cooked to medium perfection. Came with beans and birria and adobada on the side. Odd but it worked. But back to the service. I know they are busy but we felt a little abandoned. But I will be back and hope the service improves.

    My husband and I came for a quick dinner, we sat at the bar and Jorge was our bartender. Really wanted to like this place. Unfortunately, the service really took away from our experience. Our server was friendly when he first took our order, but after that he never came back to check on us--not once--to ask how the food was, see if we needed anything, or offer more mezcal margaritas. Meanwhile, the guests sitting next to us seemed to receive much more attentive service, which made us feel overlooked and honestly a bit discriminated against. We finished our meals and had our dishes pushed aside before he finally noticed us, and even then we had to ask for the check. After that, we waited again while he continued serving and offering drinks to others, and I eventually had to wave him down and say, "can we please get the check? After we had patiently waited a while. The food was okay-- the Birria tacos were definitely the best thing we ordered but the poor service made the overall experience disappointing. It's sad because it really overshadowed the meal.

    Grandson Steaks opened recently in Liberty Station in Point Loma. It was steps away from several art studios in Barracks 19 where they're all located. This space was formerly held by WildFlower restaurant, which I was not a fan of and evidently everyone else thought so too because that restaurant failed and closed. The location here is fantastic however, it's just a matter of getting it right for the new restaurant... I was reluctant coming here, as my standards for quality steak is very high. I've dined at the best steak restaurants primarily in Beverly Hills: CUT, Steak 48, and Mastros. I wanted to give Grandson Steaks the benefit of doubt and decided to visit. The restaurant was practically empty, no diners inside, but a few diners outside. The outdoor patio with the umbrellas were festive. The menu is very limited; basically one page of salad, steaks and tacos. Even though it was Taco Tuesday, I passed on tacos, and chose to order the ribeye since steaks are the house's specialty. The server Jose was helpful with menu selections. I specifically asked for the steak to be medium rare and NOT overcooked. Upon presentation, the plate looked appealing but the steak looked flat thin and overcooked. I cut through the less cooked part of the steak to find it was too hard to cut through and not even pink inside as a medium rare steak should be. Feeling angry and disappointed, I summoned the server and pointed out the tragic steak prep and rejected it back to the kitchen as it was inedible. My furbaby sensed my disappointment and just wanted to leave as we did. He The server took meticulous notes of my medium rare request but the kitchen cook didn't read the notes or doesn't know what medium rare means. Too bad because, this negative dining experience left a bad first impression in terms of the food prep. Despite a nice restaurant atmosphere and nice service staff but if the kitchen can't even get my steak order correct it's not a good start for a steak restaurant. This may be my first and last visit.

    Oyster with bone marrow which
    Matthew C.

    Came here for dinner with a party of five on a Sunday. Newer place with a steak/Mexican vibe. Tried a few items like the grilled oysters and bone marrow which had a good ponzu sauce. Shrimp cocktail more like a ceviche, but light and delicious. Went with the $99 rib eye fest to feed my family of 4, but with 2 teenage boys it's wasn't enough so we ordered a little more, the ribeye and pork belly taco was probably the best thing we are. Cheesecake desert was better than average. Wine selection is pretty good and I like that they have some from nearby Mexico vineyards. Overall a good spot to give a try and I'll be back. Shout out to Lizbeth for her stellar service.

    A delicatessen in the Arts District of Liberty Station lasted less than one year and has been converted into this new casual steakhouse. Grandson Steaks was named in homage to the grandparents of the sons who own this business. Parking was available either curbside or in one of the neighboring common lots surrounding the complex of buildings. I believe they now have steady operating hours as that wasn't the case when I first tried to visit on a weeknight, only to find they had closed earlier than usual. The layout remained unchanged with a bar that could seat 10 customers to the right and then a few tables in the middle of the dining room. There were also several covered tables outside between the sidewalk and curb. Raw cuts of beef and desserts were on refrigerated display to the left where the kitchen preparation area was located. The top half of the food menu listed seven choices of tacos, three salads, and four seafood items. The bottom half displayed the three kinds of steak, a burger, sides, desserts, and non-alcoholic drinks. I ordered a Jamaica Agua Fresca after tasting a sample which wasn't too sweet. For my dinner, I selected a house cut of the Ribeye steak cooked medium rare. It came with two sides, and my picks were the Mashed Potatoes and Refried Beans. The sides were served in separate ramekins that were delivered on a round plate. An additional side of grilled onions was included. The beans were fairly standard while bacon bits were added on top of the mashed potatoes. The steak was served on a different plate that to my surprise, also contained bone marrow and two quesadillas. Those extra items were other sides that I could have chosen but did not. The kitchen was generous that evening to include the marrow and quesadillas as complimentary offerings. The steak was approximately a 16 oz serving. It was cooked well with visible grill marks. The marrow was fatty and unctuous as expected. The quesadillas contained melted cheese inside. Other than the snafu that I encountered with the business hours (unsynchronized times listed on different social media), I had a positive experience at Grandson Steaks.

    Blueberry Whiskey Sour
    Ryan B.

    The room is fairly small which gives it a close feel and all of the staff seemed happy that we came in even on a somewhat busy evening. I was very impressed with the blueberry whiskey sour right off the bat and the shrimp cocktail felt very fresh and almost like a ceviche. When I come back I might just load up on the ribeye and pork belly taco because it was unreal. The shrimp in the shrimp taco was generous. The New York could have used a few more minutes on the grill but was excellent with the little tortillas they gave on the side.

    We were at Liberty Station to try this Grandson Steak, and upon arriving, I recognized that it used to be Wildflour Delicatessen, which was here last year, in March 2025. We came here to try their Tacos, we had the RIBEYE TACO, QUESA-RIBEYE + PORKBELLY TACO, QUESA-BIRRIA TACO and OCTOPUS + MARROW, and SHRIMP BAJA COCKTAIL. All the tacos are great, good size. The Birria and the Steak are our favorites. The Birria is very tasty and Rib eye very Tender and good. The Octopus is a no for me, it's over cooked and hard. Also, I wish that the Sauce for the Tacos came out at the same time as the tacos, or the sauce was brought out first coz it's just a sauce, pour it in a container, and deliver it. We already ate 2 TACOS before they put out the sauces. Shrimp cocktail was good too. The services were great, and parking was easy.

    Ahi tuna tostada, very good!
    Kerrie R.

    Food and drinks were excellent. I loved the apple rosemary agua fresca. The ribeye was great, not the best Prime Ribeye I have had in San Diego, but it was good for the price! This place is on the less pricey side for a steakhouse. Side portions are on the smaller side, not really shareable, but you can! I would recommend for them to get a bigger chip dish to serve chips in for sharing. The small bowl for chips with the guac was hard to share amongst the table. Unfortunately, service was not the best.. Friendly! But the etiquette needs work. The server would talk over us or interrupt us when trying to order or ask questions. The server forgot multiple times to refill our waters for the table, also forgot a couple drinks we had ordered, so we constantly had to remind them. We had a reservation at 8 and the restaurant closed at 9, but the ENTIRE time we felt like we were being super rushed, which took away from the nice ambiance the restaurant could have provided. There were multiple instances were our table was surrounded by table bussers, taking dishes and cleaning while we were eating, even a couple sauces and dips we were still using. I get it, if our server takes a few dishes here and there when they check in or bring us food/drink is totally okay, but to be swarmed by table bussers taking dishes and cleaning in the middle of eating took away from the experience. We also ordered extra dessert to go, but the portions in the to-go were smaller than what we had received while dining in. It should be consistent across the board, especially if you are paying the same price, you should get the same size portion. There will be pictures for reference. This restaurant has great potential and it is just barely a month and a half old, so I will give it time to work out the kinks. I am curious to see how this restaurant does in the summer time with closing on the earlier side for a steak house. Again, food is great! Loved the apple rosemary agua fresca.

    New restaurant at Liberty Station is Grandson Steaks! Specializes in quality meats like ribeye and tomahawk! Tacos are excellent; pork belly, queso birria, shrimp, fish Ensenada style, carne asada and more! Don't miss the house made sauces; smoky, spicy and delicious! Spices are deep and vibrant. The Baja shrimp cocktail is savory and bright; chopped avocado on top is the perfect finish condiment. Drinks are fair priced! Espresso drinks are well made especially the cortado. Patio seating outside is nice too! Plenty of street and free parking lot! Service is friendly and fast!

    I showed up without a reservation but was able to get an outside table on the patio. Very nice atmosphere, although airplanes do fly over as they prepare to land at the airport. The noise is loud and interrupts conversation. The ribeye was delicious and the chef did an excellent job in cooking it to perfection. The staff is outstanding! Highly recommend although try to sit inside.

    Tracey A.

    Had a great time and the food was delicious. Service was attentive but not annoying. We ordered a little too much food so they had to move us to a bigger table. We sat outside so the ambiance was fine. Cute umbrellas

    Grilled oysters
    Sarah M.

    Great food and service! Get the ribeye tacos and grilled oysters with bone marrow. They have good wine as well

    Liz L.

    Wow! This is a great addition to Port Loma and liberty Station! Something unique. Stopped by tonight and tried the ribeye taco and shrimp taco as well as the burger. The ribeye taco was amazing. Steak like butter. Tortilla and accoutrement flavors really elevated everything. Highly recommend the habanero sauce. Not as spicy as it sounds and incredible depth of flavor. The burger was delicious and it came with two sides. I recommend the mashed potatoes with bacon. This place is definitely affordable, especially considering the huge increases in prices in restaurants around the city. The vibe is pretty cool too. Great for date night, but also family oriented. I want to come back and order the ribeye platter where everybody can build their own tacos with different flavors. The owner was kind enough to bring us a dessert which was also authentic and just that "something different" we've been craving lately. It's open for both lunch and dinner, which is helpful. I'm really hoping this place takes off! Give it a try.

    Cheers!

Our reservations were early, arriving on time @ 5:30 it was a bit quiet with only two other tables, but not for long. In no time every single table was filled. The restaurant was busy and the wine was a'flowin'! This quaint and very special restaurant reminds me of a small restaurant in San Diego in the 1980's, "Ciao Bella". It was located downtown on 4th Ave., it was also chef-owned. When you dine at a chef owned restaurant you are most likely destined for greatness, or a great meal! This is the case at Angela's Kitchen 'Carbon', because there is pure authenticity in her dishes and a whole lotta' love delivered in each plate. The subtle, warm decor is welcoming and the music is played at the perfect level. Just the right ambiance. Once seated, you'll be promptly greeted and the attentive wait staff will have your wine delivered pronto. What a selection they have. I started with the prosecco and moved on to the Sangiovese which complimented my pappardelle perfectly. My friend ordered the grilled salmon and had the Montepulciano Abate Pietro. The delivery of their fresh bread with garlicky pesto, and another with tomato, which I think was a focaccia. Just amazing. We asked for olive oil to compliment the bread: it was the very best of quality with a dark Sicilian olive green hue and the smoothness with the polyphenols and antioxidants dancing in my mouth. Yum! I asked for a side of Parmigiano and they brought a nice square ramekin full of finely grated cheese, Perfection!! These are the details that make me fall in love with a restaurant, causing me to return again and again. Both of our entrees were executed perfectly, the vegetables were grilled leaving a slight char, and the salmon was grilled just right leaving a tender center. My pappardelle was dressed in the deepest, richest mushroom + beef cheek fusion of flavors with whispers of some kind of red wine like maybe the Nero d'Avola that they feature on the menu. WoW!! This is a dish that you want to take your time savoring. Every bite surpassed the last, and then a sip of the Sangiovese and I was in fresh pasta heaven. Just when we were winding down and reeling from being overwhelmed by the amazing food, Angela came to our table with cannoli. It too was amazing! This was such a kind and unexpected gesture from the chef/owner. Grazie mille, a domani!

Definitely give it a shot! (server recommendation) Lobster n Fotina BLT was stuffed generously and SPECIAL. It was absolutely amazing. The lobster was nice and tasty, and the cheese complimented it so well. Perfect sharing portion since it is HUGE. I see myself coming back! Thank you C Level!

We had a party of 15 and from the planning process to the actual dinner, the restaurant made the entire experience feel special and seamless. Our employees absolutely loved it. The views are honestly second to none. Watching the San Diego skyline and water during dinner created such an incredible atmosphere. The service was outstanding from start to finish and the food completely lived up to the hype. I had the lobster mac and cheese and it was unlike anything I've ever had. Rich, flavorful, and worth every bite. Then dessert happened. Our server insisted I couldn't leave without trying the peanut butter brownie ice cream dessert and now I fully understand why. Unreal. I think I need about seven more of them immediately. Highly recommend for celebrations, group dinners, date nights, or anytime you really want to impress people.

    The Amalfi Llama - Truffle & Mushrooms Pizza. The light truffle flavor combined with tender mushrooms & indulgently rich cheese exceeded expectations.

    Overall: sexy ambiance with live music & a great dinner spot…read more We walked in on on Saturday night at 8 PM after doing some returns at the mall when we were offered a table in the bar area, which was an adorable corner booth. I was really impressed that u had a place to set my feet on because I'm very short and normally have a hard time with regular bar seats. There are a lot of cute touches like that. Hooks to hold your purse, etc. I was loving the soulful music which I thought was from a playlist so I used Shazam in order to capture the song. However, the music started to sound live so I walked around...only to find it was coming from a very talented woman named Marianne across the bar. Service was friendly, but we both noticed other tables were a bit ignored or slow to be served. We ordered a few margaritas. Cesar salad with chicken and the lobster arrabbiata with table-side Parmesan. The food was great. I'm not a big focaccia lover but there's was the best I've ever had. It was warm, light, airy, fluffy, and came with this amazing butter AND olive oil, balsamic rosemary. We used the bread to dip into the leftover pasta sauce. We ordered margaritas. I would definitely recommend the blood orange drink they have on the menu. Shout out to Morgan, who was an amazing server and Marianne whose live music changed my whole mood. You are so talented girl!
