The Steakhouse at Azul La Jolla serves 100% USDA prime-aged steaks, chops, poultry and a variety of fresh seafood. Outdoors, a garden courtyard patio features starlight dining around a contemporary glass-encircled fire ring. A casual patio menu is offered 7 nights a week, with all patio menu items offered at half-price from 4-7 pm daily.

Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"That was the first time we had been to Azul and it was great! The food was awesome and oh my goodness the view was breath taking. Our waitress was nice. The only thing was that she did take a while to check on us a few times and took a really long time to bring the check but other than that it was a great evening. My husband and will be back and I will spread the word that Azul is awesome."

Review 2 for The Steakhouse at Azul La Jolla

Overall Rating 3.0 out of 5 (Good)
"Azul has been one of our favorite restaurants for many years. However, the service we had on Saturday night was awful! It was as if we were totally ignored for most of the night. It took 15 min to get our drinks, 45 min after that to get our appetizers, and almost an hour after that to get our entrees. The restaurant wasn't overly busy that night an our table was centrally located. The food was fantastic, but the horrible service definately put a bad taste in our mouths."

Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"It was a birthday dinner for my husband and one to remember. We had four people in our group, my daughter and her fiance, whom we had not seen in awhile. The staff was wonderful. The servers were very knowledgeable and attentive. While we sat there talking, we were not rushed ever, eating fresh scallops and amazingly tender filet migeon. It was a 2 1/2 hour dinner by the time it ended, it was so relaxed and fun! The event was lovely. Thank you Azul's for making it special."

"This was our fourth year in a row celebrating Valentine's Day at Azul. We love the views, the food and the service is terrific. We particularly enjoy ordering a-la-carte from the menu. Many restaurants only offer prix-fixe on special holidays; not Azul. It is a very romantic and scenic setting. We'll be at our favorite booth again next year!"

Review 7 for The Steakhouse at Azul La Jolla

Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"My Ribeye was easily among the best steaks I've ever had, and I am a major steak snob. Very tender. My date had the Scallops Rockefeller, which were also nothing short of fantastic. Our server was very attentive. Meal pacing was flawless for a romantic evening even though the dining room was packed. We arrived right at our reserved time, and were seated in less than five minutes. I would highly recommend this restaurant for steak enthusiasts and for special occasions."

Overall Rating 3.0 out of 5 (Good)
"The hostess was not very nice, and they have you waiting standing as they only have one bench.
The food was ok... nothing great like I expected.
The crab cake for appetizer was sooo small it only took one bite to finish it.
The waiter accidentally spilled cold iced water on my date
And finally the creme brule was bad, don't go for it...
Other than that, the view is amazing and the winelist is good..

Overall Rating 3.0 out of 5 (Good)
"I have one thing to say about this restaurant. It's a steakhouse. Steakhouses should have good steak...right? Then why didn't I receive a good steak? Anyway, besides the bland, unappetizing, not-cooked-to-order steak that I ordered, the Mac & Cheese is beyond to die for, and the chocolate cake blows most others out of the water. This place is best for the view and general ambiance. A bit pricey for the food/service they have there."

"Out of all the Brigantine Restaurants this is the best... The decor makes you feel like you walked into a Medieval Castle the booths are the most comfortable. The view is breathtaking. The food is perfection. I've had the pleasure of trying the salmon and the swordfish. Both are full of flavor and melt in your mouth like sugar.The sides compliment the entree perfectly. The B.L.T salad is incredible. It pops with flavor.The shrimp are huge and the meat is the most tender I've ever tasted.Their quality inspired me to make gourmet dinners at home for my family."

Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"Although we went to Azul because it was listed as a steak house, the steak was the least appealing to us. The french onion soup was rich almost demi glaze richness. The spinach salad was perfect. The egg was boiled to perfection, the bacon not overcooked and was not soggy. The oysters in the oyster rockefeller was fresh and the truffle oil made it delictable! The steaks were cooked well but I guess I don't like Kansas steaks. The steaks did not melt in our mouths although you couldn't go wrong with the filet mignon. Service was excellent."

"The half price wine Wed was great. The filet was also very good quality, although lacked a little flavor. Other than that the food was bland or just unpleasant. The service was ok, although when asked for a wine list it took ten minutes even though the dining room was empty except for 5 tables. Also, when dessert came we had no silverware and it took another 5 minutes to bring us some so by that time it was cold. I personally would not go back as would my dinner companion."

"My husband & I both had outstanding meals at Azul! I had a filet with a crabcake on top. The crabcake was moist, perfectly cooked & no filler- all crab meat- delicious. The steaks were cooked to perfection. All the food we were served was flavorful & prepared with skill. Service was graceful and attentive. Not sure why, but this restaurant has not been on our radar before- We will definately be back!"

"I recently visited Azul for a Birthday dinner. Upon making my reservation through OpenTable and asking for a "special" table for the occassion, when we got to the restaurant, not only did they honor my request they also included a Birthday card as well! The service was spot-on and everyone was extremely nice and accommodating without being too intrusive during the evening. The steaks were great and the dessert was amazing as well. Overall, I'd have to give this place a solid A; and I'll definitely be returning in the future as well as recommending it to others."

"This is only the second time we have been to Azul and once again we had a wonderful meal and experience. We were there for New Year's Eve. The service is excellent and the food just perfect. We had a great view of the sunset over La Jolla Cove and the moon as it came up. Although the restaurant got crowded, the noise level remained very low. This is a very elegant, warm and romantic restaurant. I highly recommend Azul, I can't say enough good about it."

Review 33 for The Steakhouse at Azul La Jolla

Overall Rating 4.0 out of 5 (Very Good)
"Good food overall. A large ( too big?) portion of tuna in the Ahi Tuna Poke. Prime Rib (special NYE menu item) was a bit fatty... I don't eat a lot of prime rib, so maybe it is supposed to have large chunks of fat on it. Great service, very attentive but not intrusive. Desserts were well executed classics but nothing especially creative (pumpkin cheesecake was creamy, smooth, and sweet; the creme brûlée had a delicate crust and a ultra smooth custard underneath). Overall, the menu was classic steakhouse done well without the ultra creative flair of a more modern restaurant. Same goes for decor."

"This is the kind of place that you can come back to over and over again. The food was prepared the way you would expect a fine restaurant to prepare food. No surprises here. You get excellent food for the price and their chocolate cake was to die for! I can't remember eating a better dessert."

"My husband and I enjoyed a fabulous New Year's Eve dinner at Azul. The service, environment and food were perfect! The herbed butter served with the warm/soft bread was delicious and the steaks were juicy, tender and good size. I'd not only reccomend this restaurant, but I look forward to going back next time we're in town!"

"We had Christmas Eve dinner here this year. Last year we had Christmas dinner at Donovan's. The steaks at Azul were not quite as good, but the other menu items, ambiance, view, service, and overall experience were much better at Azul. Highly recommended."

Review 41 for The Steakhouse at Azul La Jolla

Overall Rating 4.0 out of 5 (Very Good)
"Being rated "most romantic in San Diego" drew me in. It was a very nice place with great service, food, and view. (Though at night you're looking at pitch black with a few lights on the horizon.) We were seated inside looking out over the (pitch black) ocean. While it was a nice experience I couldn't see anything overly romantic. Visiting other restaurants lower on the Most Romantic list (Like the Addison, or the Marine Room) gave me high expectations. Perhaps I was expecting too much or didn't get seated outside near the very cool looking fire. Very good food and service will have be back there again, but I'll still be looking for why it is the most romantic."
