Reviews for The Smoking Goat Restaurant in San Diego, CA
Stopped by on a Saturday evening for appetizers and drinks with my husband. We enjoyed the Crispy Spanish Octopus, Cauliflower,... and a decadent Goat Cheese Cheesecake. Drinks were superb (I recommend the Vesper) and the atmosphere was intimate. This placeis special! Read more
Typically a salmon and veggies girl, tonight I went out of my zone and ordered the steak frites. What a decadent pleasure! ... Perfectly grilled steak to exactly my specifications, and there is very little bad that you can say about french fries fried induck fat topped with truffle oil. Ladies and gentlemen, this one did not disappoint! Husband had the banana dessert which wasincredibly flavorful and smoky like a campfire. Wonderful and fun flavor. I got the goat cheese cheesecake…. Not too sweet.Perfect with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. Ambience is as decadent as the meal. Service was impeccable and knowledgeable. Absolutely totally looking forward to our return trip.

Had reservations here on a Friday night for an anniversary dinner. We were seated in a quiet corner. Although they became quite... busy and all the tables filled quickly, I noticed they did not seat anyone at the two tables next to us until towards the end ofour meal. I’m not sure if it was intentional or not but that made our time there very romantic since we were seated away fromother groups. Our server Allan was amazing! He explained the menu, had recommendations, and was very attentive. The food wasalso fantastic and came out quickly. Every dish was perfectly cooked. Very good wine too! We will definitely be back.

The duck was cooked perfectly and the leak potatoes where to die for! Everything was beyond perfection and Ican’t wait to come back! Food and service was more than expected. Read more

I've been coming to the smoking goat for about 3 years. Honestly, it's been one of my top spots in north park. They usually have... a special of the night and it's always Amazinggggg. I had the seafood pasta, and honestly it was best I've ever had. It hadmuscles, shrimp, swordfish and the best sauce you could imagine. It even was a Large portion as well. Top notch Highly highlyrecommend this place. I haven't had a bad entree there ever. Only wish they had a few more beer options Read more
