Very very nice supper. Our server, Scotty, took really good . . . No, scratch that. Scotty was phenomenal!!! Of the best service I have ever witnessed. Oh, and I did catch a momentary glimpse of Chef Deb walking out from the kitchen wearing a jean apron, with her phone up to her ear. We had just left the NAVY base San Diego NASCAR event this Saturday afternoon. The race was a real s"!t show and we were VERY ready for some Island Prime delight. CRG delivered. We started off with cocktails next door at C-Level, because we had some time to burn before our reservation time. We were seated promptly at our reservation time, and then Scotty took over. We had Oysters, Shishito Peppers, Asparagus, a baked potato, Linguini, Shrimps, Ahi and a Skirt Steak. Oh and don't forget about Chef Deb's Popovers. Scotty just kept bringing 'em popovers. I don't know quite what Scotty brought out for dessert, but we smiled . . . a lot. A fine dining atmosphere, topped only by the view, the food, a Chef Deb sighting and Scotty. Oh and do read the bottom edge of the menu about a 5% up charge. We decided to ask for that removed and applied the extra 5% to the outstanding service. An awfully darn good place.

Island Prime delivers a beautiful dining experience with incredible waterfront views. The starters were definitely the highlight of the meal--fresh, flavorful, and a great way to kick off dinner. Unfortunately, the entrées were a bit underwhelming and didn't quite live up to the quality of the appetizers. The service was friendly and attentive throughout the meal, but we were never offered a dessert menu, which was disappointing. We had been looking forward to trying the Baked Alaska, so it was a bit of a letdown to miss out on it. Overall, it's still a great spot for a special night out, and I'd be happy to return, especially to give the desserts another chance. For the price point I was expecting much more. read more

The Service, the atmosphere and most of all the food was amazing. The steak was very good, Mac and cheese just as good as C-level and the drinks perfect. The mashed was ok and the reservations made a while ago for a birthday was not followed. They didn't sit us at a window areas and so we told them we would wait. The reason they said we didn't get what we requested was "first come get the window" ??? All in all nice place to have a good dinner. Oh yeah the music was good too read more

(3/5) Island Prime has a beautiful waterfront view, excellent service, and a solid wine selection. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to the atmosphere or price point. The steak lacked seasoning, the mushrooms were bland, and the crab topping was minimal and served lukewarm. The mashed potatoes were also underwhelming and lacked flavor. The lobster tail was disappointingly rubbery. For dessert, the pineapple upside-down cake was dense and heavier than expected, lacking the light, moist texture that typically makes this dessert enjoyable. On the positive side, the fries were very good, the wine selection was impressive, and the staff provided attentive service throughout the evening. The view is definitely one of the restaurant's strongest features. Overall, Island Prime delivers a great dining experience in terms of ambiance, service, and scenery, but I wish the food quality matched everything else. For a steakhouse at this price point, I expected much more from the meal itself. read more

Island Prime - Ribeye - Seafood Near Me - San Diego, California

WOW! This place is as amazing as everyone says it is!! We have dined at C-Level in the space next to this awesome restaurant, a lot. We were invited here for a special retirement dinner. The retirement dinner was held in the private room and there were about 40-50 of us. The food and service was absolutely amazing. We had 3 course prix fixe meals, and they were delicious! The upscale and professional wait staff and serving staff are great! Everything was prepared very well, and tasted DELICIOUS! I highly recommend this fine dining restaurant. Highly! read more

We wanted to celebrate our 50th Anniversary and of course we chose Island Prime. The touch of elegance in making a couple feel special is Prime and they did not disappoint. The minute we walked in at the host stand to the time we were seated everyone recognized us and we were graciously greeted with a welcome. Seth, our server for the evening, was the perfect individual to help us in our celebration. The wine we chose to the food election was perfection which went along the gorgeous view of the city. The filet trio was both our choice and the Sainte-Emilio Les Cadrans Bordeaux blended perfectly with our wonderful evening. read more

First, and so important, the gentleman ISHMAEL did the most incredible job taking care of us during our 41st anniversary dinner! Thoughtful, knowledgeable, intuitive, kind & invested in doing a great job. We GREATLY appreciate that! His recommendations were spot on & we had one of our most memorable dinners! The 'off-menu' old-fashioned was unlike anything I've tasted -- and I savored every sip. Every step thru dinner kept us looking forward to the next dish. (Calamari, tuna/crab/avo stack, scallops & risotto cakes, eye of ribeye -- so savory, carefully made - to top it off with a dark chocolate orange truffle with raspberry coulis -- perfect end to a perfect dinner. Thank you, Ishmael, for being so attentive & invested in making sure we had the BEST experience at Island Prime. read more

Island Prime - Seafood Near Me - San Diego, California

For our last dinner in San Diego for Spring Break 2026, we booked Island Prime. Its a large, festive, steak and seafood place on Harbor Island, close to the airport and sitting next to North San Diego Bay. Plenty of self parking for Mon-Tues night. The views of the water and the whole San Diego skyline were great. As for food quality, we has 3 good dishes and 1 epic fail so overall 3 stars. For apps, each person gets a popover, which is excellent with the creamy herbed butter. I recommend the charred octopus if you like more spicy, tangy flavors with Spanish influence. One key reason I chose Island Prime is for their Chicken under the Brick. My 5yo son and I shared this dish and despite being on the dry side, he managed to eat half the dish. The mashed potatoes were herby and firm, which I liked. We also got a side of grilled asparagus - plump and tender. The epic fail was my wife's Halibut Catch of the Day. Prepares blackened, the fish was overcooked and dry. The crab fried rice was drenched in soy sauce and was borderline inedible. She had to eat the fish and rice together to get some sort of balance. Dessert was a partial save - Key Lime Pie was a huge tartlet close to an inch in height. Sweet, crumbly graham cracker crust and smooth, tart filling with pomegranate drizzle. Excellent. Island Prime has been around for a while but if we were to return, its best to stick with scallops or meat dishes. read more

Come for the views, stay for the food. Recently visited for a friends bday dinner. While here I had the following: Steak & Asparagus-perfectly prepared, nicely seasoned and adequately sized for the price. Oysters-briny and deelish. Steak tartare-tender and amply sized. The homemade chips was a nice touch. Would've loved a few more to accommodate for the amount of tartare. Frites-crispy, golden and deelish. Ambiance is low lit and sophisticated at night. Service was friendly and fast. I'd definitely patronized again. read more

From the moment you step in to the moment you leave everyone is so welcoming and kind! Island prime's appetizers and main course were outstanding. Lobster bisque was one of the best I ever had and was nostalgic due to Chef Deborah's east coast upbringing. Our server Tyler, the manager, and Chef Deborah were all so impressive and really set the bar high for customer interactions. Dessert was a bit too sweet for me but my husband loved his dessert cocktail! The view is amazing and very intimate once the sun goes down. The only unfortunate thing is that because they pack your leftovers, we didn't notice our onion rings (almost the whole portion) were missing until the next day. We were looking forward to eating those as they were delicious. Otherwise, it was a fantastic experience and we look forward to going back! read more

Was debating on posting thia review because I truly hate not enjoying a restaurant the way I envisioned. However when I took everything into consideration, I felt it to be necessary to highlight the parts we enjoyed and the parts that made me give the 3 stars. Th pros: that view! That view alone is 6/5 stars it was so breathtaking and one of the reasons why we chose to come here. As a person who has always hated mashed potatoes and just recently started getting myself to try and like them these blew me away. So creamy and flavorful and perfect. The bread the give you at the beggining is also quite tasty, slighly sweet and buttery. My husband also said the lobster was probably the best one he's had and the butter container was such a creative gadget. Also the anniversary dessert we were given was rich and really good. The cons: We ordered our steaks medium and while they were quite good and did have a slight pink in the middle of the filet, for the most part it was cooked medium well. We are not ones to send food back so we ate them and figured their medium might be different than what we have previously had. The asparagus I wanted to like so bad and while that citrus lemon flavor was good the bottom of the stalk was not cut off so it was stringy and hard to chew and honestly kind of hard to fully enjoy. The service from our server was also Ok. Not bad but also not great or anything that stood out as we did not seem him a lot. The other staff that filled our water and dropped off our plates were attentive and kind. read more

I visited here for my second time on 04/01/2026 with a reservation at 5:15pm. We had a party of four. This is still a very popular place. When we sat at that early time, it was still pretty empty; however, when we left at 7pm -- it was almost to 100% capacity. The view remains beautiful, same location, same beautiful view. The sunset is spectacular as you dine out over the water. This time we feel it slipped one star, because the service was just really slow at times. We had a server that we have had before, and we don't blame him; however, it is likely due to the assignment of one too many tables. There were delays of things like 15 minutes before clearing the table and delivery of the dessert menu. Otherwise, the food remained really good. I feel that the prices are reasonable considering the type of restaurant, view, and location. I had the chicken under a brick, which was a delicious bone in chicken breast with potatoes, onion, chili and chimichurri. Yum! The table shared sides of brussel sprouts and mac and cheese. Both were delicious and both were topped with pork belly, so you have to love it! read more

Prime Time!! They say you cant eat the view. Respectfully, I disagree. The stunning San Diego Bay, as a backdrop, elevated the entire experience. I believe that beautiful surroundings enhance my tastebuds to a new level, every time. At least so, for me. It happened again here at Island Prime! Again. The great atmosphere and ambiance aside, the meal and drinks were spot on. Steak, lobster and wine created a perfect pairing. Staff and service - 5 star too. Third time is a charm, and I will be back again. If sensory synergy is for you, join in at Prime time at Island Prime... Grazie mille ~ read more

After a great experience at C-Level, we came back to try Island Prime. Both spots share the same Harbor Island building, kitchen, and Executive Chef , with the same panoramic skyline views. When you walk in, Island Prime is to the right, C-Level to the left. The biggest difference is the vibe. C-Level is casual, lively, and mostly outdoors, while Island Prime is an indoor, more upscale steakhouse . The space is dimly lit and intimate. The menu at Island Prime leans toward high-end steaks and seafood with higher prices, while C-Level offers more casual, California-style dishes. Despite the differences, you can see the shared kitchen influence. Everything we ordered at Island Prime was fresh, perfectly cooked, and just as enjoyable, with the same great service we experienced at C-Level. Overall, a good experience. Great views, relaxing atmosphere, and solid food, especially if you're looking for a more refined alternative to C-Level. read more

I've been dining at Island Prime for years. It's one of the most beautiful settings in San Diego. Amazing water views, nice staff, and all around good vibes! I dined here a few months ago with my wife for date night. The food was ok and she barely made it home to the rest room. TMI but true. Maybe the lobster bisque. Fast forward to tonight. Wife out of town and was excited to spend the evening with my daughter visiting from out of town. Lots of choices but this spot is so beautiful. She ordered a salad and it was super salty and the peaches weren't ripe. I feel that a good attentive chef would substitute a strawberry versus serving crunchy peaches. We both ordered filet cooked medium and the sticks were closer to well than a nice pink center. The mash potatoes were cold. The neighboring table sent the 14 dollar baked potato back because it was so cool that the butter chunk didn't melt. I wasn't in the mood to send food back and wait and deal with the annoyance. Wanted to spend my quality time with my daughter and focus on the positive times in life. Cohn restaurants have always been good. Two back to back disappointments. The San Diego food scene has improved exponentially over the past 10 years. I hope Island Prime resolves these issues. Salad doesn't need to be salty and food is easily served hot. The bread popups remain a highlight. Maybe a bottle of wine, views and complementary popups next time! read more

Celebrated my birthday here! I paid $20 to have rose petals shaped into a heart on the table--it was cute, but honestly not worth the price haha. On the bright side, they gave us a complimentary birthday cake slice on the house. For dinner, I had the Island Prime Trio. The meat quality was good, but it felt a bit ordinary, the portions were quite small, and the wait time was long. My boyfriend ordered a steak (not sure which cut), but it was absolutely delicious! I'd highly recommend sharing it. The ambiance was nice, though it gets a bit too dark at night. I think sitting right by the window would have made the experience much more memorable! read more

My friends and I went here for a retirement dinner. The wait staff and manager were very friendly and helpful. They had wine specials going on for dinner. The wine was very good and of great value. They gave us a very comfortable booth and the restaurant was welcoming and very elegant. We ordered the Deborah's Brie and shrimp cocktail. It was very flavorful and delicious. The filet mignon with lobster tail was fantastic and the tail was enormous and perfectly cooked. We loved the entire dinner. Staff treated us very well and gave exceptional service.

Arriving here we had a reservation at 8:15 we arrived at 8:10 to check in and our table was ready at 8:40 when we sat down. The views were super nice but we didn't get to sit at a table with a view which sucked. Now for the food we ordered food was amazing katsu calamari and ribeye on the bone delicious. The prices were pretty high for the food but definitely worth it. We came here for a birthday as well it was nice for the server to bring the cakes! Service was alright i work at a restaurant myself and i can say he was okay n seemed busy. Took awhile for a lot of stuff. My friends kept asking for things from the other server n other server seemed helpless bc he didn't wanna help which i get but told the other server who brushed it off. I mean i get it we looked super young but we paid n still tipped 18%. Food 10/10 Service 5/10 I would come back for the food but work on the service please! read more

I've been here a few times already and it never disappoints. The most recent was for my mother in law's birthday for an early dinner on a Saturday since she loves the free bread. We were seated in the corner right next to the window with a perfect view of downtown and Coronado. Seriously one of the best spots in the restaurant. We ordered the onion ring tower, calamari, ribeye, chimichurri, mushrooms, and a few other dishes I can't list because I was too busy inhaling them. Everything was delicious. Pricey? Yes. Worth it? Also yes. My wallet cried a little, but my stomach wrote it a thank you card. The service was great too. Our server gave us plenty of time to look over the menu and offered helpful suggestions. He even brought out a slice of chocolate cake for celebrating a birthday. I usually save spots like these for special occasions, so I'm definitely coming back. read more

We have dined here before and had a wonderful experience, which is why we chose this restaurant to celebrate my son's graduation with out of town family. We got our table quickly thanks to our reservation, and our servers were very nice and attentive. Unfortunately, the food was a major letdown. The seared scallops were sandy and had a strong fishy taste/odor. The prawns in the linguine dish were overcooked and rubbery. The filet mignon trio, at $65x 2, was the biggest disappointment -- the filets lacked any seasoning and were completely bland. Again, the swordfish was dry keeping to theme we were experiencing. For a special celebration, we expected the quality we remembered from our first visit. Sadly, this experience fell way short of that. We left feeling more disgusted, especially paying the bill for undesirable food. read more

Continuing the 21-day land/cruise birthday month adventure, my wife and I decided to do lunch on the Marina peninsula at Island Prime. This spot is located on the eastern tip of the peninsula and enjoys a great view of downtown San Diego and the bay. Island Prime features a main dining area, a bar area, and an expanded covered deck/patio. Surprisingly, lunch time was fairly active in the restaurant as the deck and bar areas were busy. We were seated quickly by the welcoming front house staff at a booth in the bar area with a nice view. We chose the Island Prime Seafood Tower, the Island Prime Lobster Bisque, and a Dozen Oysters on the Half Shell featuring East Coast and West Coast selections. This was a pescatarian paradise! The tower included a half dozen Oysters, chilled Prawns, Salmon poke, and a Tuna stack with avocado, lettuce, Taro chips chopped Mango, Onions and Arugula. Entrees included a Seafood Pappardelle with Prawns, Mussels, Bay Scallops, Arugula, and Pappardelle pasta in a tasty pesto sauce. We shared this dish and both of us loved it Our server Megan and her helper Yasmani were great! Megan was attentive and welcoming, and Yasmani kept us thoroughly hydrated by keeping our water glasses filled. We ended lunch with dessert, a Chocolate Brownie with Caramel topping and Peanut Butter Ice Cream, and a Key Lime Pie with Strawberry sauce. We took the pie to go. Teaming with locals definitely enjoyed this spot We were so pleased our Lyft driver Aleksandr recommended Island Prime. The view, food, and service were great! Next time we are in the area we will drop in! read more

Came here the day before NYE, all the decoration were still up! We had an amazing date night with such incredible view and even better food! The service was great- we were in the middle of two sections so at times it felt like we had double the weight staff, but I would rather be overly checked on, then not checked on at all! lol Our team was incredible though, and was able to split our meal between the two of us. We split the trio fillet and the sesame crusted tuna, I couldn't believe how much food we got with it being half portions I look forward to coming back and trying more of the foods! read more

Unfortunately, this trip to Island Prime was a disappointment. We have dined here many times, and have always given a 5 star review, but not this time. First, we had 6:30 reservations on Friday night, but didn't get seated until shortly after 7:00. We did get a nice window table, but the sunset was pretty much gone by the time we were seated. The popovers were great as always. It was the highlight of our meal. We ordered steak, salad, Baked potato and mushrooms. The steak was good, but a little overcooked. We received brussel sprouts rather than the mushrooms we ordered, and that wasn't corrected until we were nearly finished eating the rest of our food. We did receive a complimentary dessert for our special occasion, which was a nice touch. Unfortunately, there was chocolate on the bottom of the plate which my boyfriend got on his hands when turning the plate! The wine by the glass list has also changed, and does not have the qualities wines I would expect for a high end restaurant. Sadly, this meal just didn't hit the mark this time. read more

We came to Island Prime to celebrate my son's college graduation. The ambience and service were great. Unfortunately, some of the food we ordered was very disappointing. Drinks and appetizers were good and the seafood was good. We also ordered a tomahawk steak and Brussels sprouts side. The steak and asparagus (side that comes with the steak) were served cold and the quality of the meat was not very good. It was cold, very tough and flavorless. The Brussels sprouts were also cold. The manager came to our table, was very nice and ultimately removed the steak from our check and offered to bring something else for dinner. At this point I had lost my appetite and my daughter had finished her dinner. While I appreciated his gesture, I was disappointed and would expect more from a restaurant at this price point. read more

We were able to get last minute reservations so we came here on a Sunday evening for dinner. So here's how we would rate our experience. The ambiance is a definite 5/5 because of the views. We did not get a table by the window but could see a partial view from our table. Service is a 3/5. Our server was very friendly and attentive. There was just a very long wait between our appetizers and main entree. By that time our stomachs already gave the signal that it was full. But we ate our entrees anyway. And here are our thoughts. The best entree was the swordfish. Tender and mild fish that was cooked well. All the other entrees were not good. The steak trio was very average. Not memorable at all. The ahi, crab, and avocado stack looked good but a disappointment. The fish did not taste fresh and the sauce was a bit strong. We love scallops but this entree was on the salty side and not tasty. We also got lobster bisque and a side of macaroni and cheese. The bisque was okay. The Mac and cheese was okay. It did not need all that dried onion on top. So the food this evening gets a 2.5/5. So overall, this place is a 3/5. Not worth the money. Portion sizes were on the smaller side except the swordfish. They said the side dishes were meant to shared by the table but the Mac and cheese would not be enough to share with a group of hungry people. Self parking is limited. There's a small lot when you pull in that is to the right. We missed it and got stuck in the valet line. So we did valet. As we were leaving, we saw there was another row of parking that was self parking but with the valet lines so prominent, we missed it. Probably will not return. read more

Parking is now a nightmare, as the valet closed almost all parking rows for valet, which will charge you $10 to park your car 20 feet away, and will ask you for a tip. Other than that, this is one of my favorite spots in San Diego. Great views of the bay with consistently great food and consistent good service. Their steaks are always juicy and cooked as ordered. The servers are very professional and accommodating. Their menu has a great selection of appetizers, steaks, seafood, and sides. Their wine list is great, but very difficult to access on the tablet as the software is very clunky. They do not have a paper option. read more

Easy parking + okay wait time + exceptional service (offered to take a photo of us and everything!) + stunning views! The complimentary bread was one of the best bread I've ever tasted -- still dreaming about it even a year later. We got the lobster tail (mp), two seared scallops ($32), and the australian rack of lamb ($61). The food was delicious, but the bread was the highlight (lol). All this is to say that I highly recommend the restaurant if you're in the area! read more

Disappointed that both of our twice baked potatoes had no lobster in them. We thought they had changed the menu from our very last visit but after coming home and looking at the menu online lobster is still part of it.

I was able to eat at the island prime with my husband for a date night for the first time. We were sat at our reservation time, but we were sat more inside instead of a window seat. Our reservation was at 5:30pm so I thought this would be early enough to grab a nice view on the water however, they said it would've been a little bit more of a wait. Ish was our server. He did a great job explaining the menu and letting us know when we were going to order too much. Haha. We ordered the 39 day old, dry age, New York Steak, shrimp linguine, and twice baked potato. The twice baked potato was so big. We took home more than half of it. The New York Steak was delicious and I would go back for this again. The shrimp linguine was also really good but we finished the steak on the spot. Service from the wait staff was exceptional. read more

FIVE STARS! Thank you very much, Island Prime, for an amazing Mother's Day dinner. I'm always hesitant to eat out on major holidays because I've had many unpleasant experiences. Reservations are wrong, the pre-fixed menus are boring or the service is terrible usually because they're overwhelmed. Sometimes even all three have been the case. But not at Island Prime! Everything was absolutely perfect. We had a wonderful table within a few minutes of arriving. The server was awesome! She was friendly, happy and attentive. The extra servers were constantly coming by and refilling drinks and taking away empty plates. The food was delicious as always. It came out promptly and hot. The desserts (which were many) were ALL delicious! This was something that pleasantly surprised us all. Usually mass desserts can be pretty to look at but tasteless. Every dessert was fantastic. I just can't say thank you enough for being more than capable of handling such a precious celebration as Mother's Day with so much finesse. read more
