The Grill at Torrey Pines

One of the most enjoyable breakfasts I've experienced. The view, the food, the service would make any food magazine connoisseur or peon like me grant raving reviews.Very upscale trendy venue to begin your day in La Jolla. This is the life. So glad Doc brought us here.

We went for breakfast here at "The Grill at Torrey Pines". We are very familiar with the place where the restaurant is. My Son had played golf in this area, we checked-in our friends here from out of town for a couple of days. We've also had dinner at their other restaurants in their lodge , but this was our first time to try their Breakfast here at "The Grill at Torrey pines".First of all, this is such a wonderful place to dine-in at, it's facing a Golf course, it's very relaxing, it has a nice breeze, and it has very nice View! We ordered the following:*SMOKED SALMON and CREAM CHEESE OMELET *AVOCADO TOAST *2 COFFEESMy husband got the SMOKED SALMON and CREAM CHEESE OMELET, this dish was delicious. There were a lot of salmons in the omelet and it came with a nicely toasted bread and roasted potatoes. Also, there was a big chunk of Cream cheese tucked inside the Omelette, this one was very good. My Avocado toast was good, but the veggies on the side were too citrusy for me. My avocado toast is a good size, very filling. This is a good place to hang out and dine in with Family and Friends while having a nice View.

Billion dollar views, great service and just a nice calm vibe.Went here for a business meeting. I tried their cheeseburger and it was great. Will have to go back to try some more of the food but the service was great, the seating is plentiful, amazing views of the golf course, pro shop and putting greens. You can even see the paragliders as they fly around the cliffs. Great relaxing spot to take a break from all the noise and bustle around San Diego.

First time at The Grill and was surprised by the average ratings. I actually had a very pleasant breakfast experience, and you can't beat that view! We were sat down immediately upon arrival, and drinks and food were promptly served. I really enjoyed the huevos rancheros, and my friend and I were very grateful for having a pitcher of coffee left in our table. Will definitely come back after a golf game for their dinner menu.

Friend and I shared the chicken and the miso salmon. I think the salmon was mildly fishy but other than that the flavors were good. The sauce on the chicken and the couscous were fantastic and a very generous portion size. We dined at night and sat outside so our waiter, Alex, brought us blankets and made sure we were comfortable. At night it is a super cute spot to grab dinner (they have fire pits going and live music). Servers and hosts were super sweet and efficient.

Think basic bar and grill on the most beautiful golf course. We unfortunately had to sit inside due to rain, but the views from the patio are lovely. Food was on par (no pun) for a grill, plenty of options. They have a more formal restaurant just above that we didn't have the chance to check out. Espresso martini: one of the better espresso martinis I've tired. I enjoy ones darker in color, less sweet and creamy, which describes theirs nicely. With Tito's, cold brew, and coffee liquor, this was the perfect brunch pick me up. Reuben: didn't try this sandwich, was reportedly good, your average Reuben. Smoked Tuna Salad Sandwich: very good, toasty levain bread, generous amount of albacore with the perfect remoulade and even extra mayonnaise on the bread which I'm always for! I appreciated that the tuna was the star of the show with just a small bunch of lettuce and a single tomato slice (which I actually don't recall?) Do not go out of your way, but if you want to check out the course and grab a bite, this will certainly do just fine!

Awesome view of the golf course and the ocean. Food was delicious had the cheese burger and appetizer chips and onion dip was amazing. I highly recommend. The music that started at 4pm was a nice ambiance.

Have eaten here a couple times, previously during lunch and most recently for dinner following a round of golf. Surprisingly, our lunch was much better than dinner experience. First of all, eat outside. The inside is kind of depressing. The outside offers firepit tables or tables overlooking the greens/out toward the ocean (with heaters above to help take off the chill). Perhaps the biggest difference was our server, the dinner one not being nearly as friendly/helpful/enjoyable as the one we'd had previously. It really makes a big difference. She had a thick accent so perhaps there was a language barrier, but she seemed disinterested in general in serving our table. Regardless, for dinner we had the burger with onion rings (it was good - hard to mess it up), smoked chicken with roasted veg (again good- like the smokiness of the chicken; way too many onions in the veg melange)and then the split chicken with veggies. Have a gluten allergy so asked for the farro to be kept out of the split chicken entree. Appeared they removed it, but wasn't trusting our server's response. Probably the most annoying part of the meal was the hidden charge that was added sometime after giving them our cc but before adding tip/signing. One might not notice it b/c it's maybe 5% of the bill, but we decided to ask what it was and was told it's essentially a tip for the back of house staff like chefs and dishwashers. Hmmm - I'm giving a generous tip for the meal and it used to be that servers would give a small portion of their tip to various appropriate support staff. Certainly doesn't make me want to select the higher tip options when the check comes. And seriously, adding 5% in a sneaky way? Just increase the cost of each item so I know what I'm buying at what price. In contrast, our lunch experience was amazing with the absolute best tri-tip salad and oak roasted chicken and fruit salad. That experience is why they get 5 stars and why we chose to return. So...if you're in the area give it a try. Sit at one of the outside tables, get one of their smoked meat meals and have a delicious glass of wine to accompany it.

Came here for weekend brunch and everything was great including service. We enjoyed the omelets and toast very much. I wish they served the same butter here as they do at AR Valentien (soft and salted), but the butter here was served cold and hard. Overall, great spot for breakfast or brunch. Can't go wrong sitting inside or outdoors.

Service was good. My Falafel sandwich not so much. Incredibly dry. Not tasting at all like any falafel I've had in my life, and even TJ's frozen is better. They switched it out for Calamari best I can say about that was eh. A big disappointment for sure.
