Greystone Prime Steakhouse & Seafood

This has always been me in my husband's favorite restaurant downtown , san diego. We haven't been in a while and he took me for my birthday in december of 2025. We have always had great service and excellent food here. But this time , it really was a disaster. As stated , it was my birthday , we sat at the bar because the place was empty. First off when we got there , they had all kinds of christmas decorations and boxes sitting on top of the bar. We were not familiar with this new bartender.A young lady , but she has a lot to learn. The last bartender that worked there , robert was exceptional. We sat there for a while after we ordered, and I ended up walking to the restroom and lo and behold.There's my food just sitting there getting cold. When I came out of the restroom, my food was still sitting there so I asked the kitchen staff, could I take it? They said ok. When I got back to the bar with my plate , the bartender seemed appalled , but unfortunately , it was her job to check on my food and she was too busy visiting. I'm not sure if we will be back , but we were very surprised to have a bad experience at such a high quality restaurant.

We came to Greystone on a whim during our last night of our honeymoon. We were immediately greeted with warmth from all the staff. We ordered drinks, the crab cake, gnocchi, and wagyu steak and it was all delightful. We were given the chocolate truffon as a congratulations for our honeymoon, which we are so appreciative for! We had the most time with Bryan and Manny for our servers. I cannot say enough nice things about Manny and Bryan! They were so personable and such a pleasure. Highly recommend stopping by and asking for either server!

Visited San Diego this past weekend and kept hearing about an incredible steakhouse called Greystone and wow, they absolutely delivered. We were greeted by the sweetest hostess who took us to our table, and the whole vibe was unreal. The lighting, music, and ambiance were so classy and sexy. The service was outstanding, and the food… out of this world. My husband was celebrating, so we ordered the A5 Wagyu and lobster, and he said it was the best meal of his life. He’s still talking about it! Huge thank you to GM Sara and her team, they surprised us with a beautiful dessert and made the whole night feel truly special. Such an amazing experience.

The halal wagyu option drew me in. However, left feeling completely ripped off. Went for the date night special, expecting not to pay too much more than their promotion of $99. Since only their wagyu is halal, I asked if we can swap their new york steak option for wagyu. Our server (think he was French) said he'll have to ask the manager. He confirmed she said OK, but there'll be a slight surcharge. I understand some options like wagyu tartare and steak would be extra. But that surcharge just for us to get 1 wagyu swapped with the NY steak cost an extra $60! Our other dish was a salmon which was pretty good but overcooked. So that date night special ended up costing over $200 (after tip)! The tartare was good but wagyu ribeye was nothing special, and definitely not worth the outrageous extra charge they did!

Double date night with great friends. Previously I have always walked by this place, NOT KNOWING, how great it realy is. It's reasonably prices for a stake house and all the glam. Rob, at the bar was friendly and knows how to make a great old fashioned. All staff was friendly and helpful with information 👍 🙂
