We're back again! This time we came specifically to drop the $365 on the Tomahawk set and see how it stacked up against our usual favorites. First things first: The Salmon. I have never had salmon this good in my life--hands down the #1 dish of the night. If you're a fan of fish, skip everything else and just get this. The Sea Bass was fresh and the quinoa it came with was actually really tasty, but honestly, it just couldn't compete with that salmon. As for the Tomahawk set, the steak itself was great and the lobster was super fresh. However, the grilled oysters were a bit of a letdown. I get that they put salt on the bottom to keep them warm, but these were just way too salty. We also tried the Seafood Pasta, which was just "okay"--it was a little dry and came out kind of cold. On the plus side, the fried calamari was solid. The service, however, is what really makes this place. It's always top-notch here, and Ricky was especially awesome and super nice to us all night. Final thought: Even though the Tomahawk was a cool experience, I think I actually prefer the $100 set more. It feels like a better balance of flavors for the price. Still a great night out!

Excellent Cornish hen & mashed potatoes. Shrimp cocktail was also delicious. Veal chop was moist even though overcooked. Bread service is always excellent. Service by Paloma was nicely done. Cocktails could have used some work. Served " dirty" which was far too salty. Cheesecake was a fail. Bland & tasteless.

We celebrated a birthday at Prime Cut Steakhouse and the entire experience was truly outstanding. This continues to be one of the best steakhouse experiences in San Diego. The moment you step inside, you forget you are in Jamul Casino. The atmosphere is elegant, relaxing, and beautifully designed, and the views of the surrounding mountains make the evening feel even more special. We ordered the Snake River special and it was unforgettable. The tomahawk chop was rich and incredibly flavorful. The lobster tails were tender and sweet. The oysters Rockefeller were perfectly prepared. The bananas foster added the perfect finishing touch. Every component of the special was impressive and worth experiencing. We also had the Cote de Bouffe, which was cooked to perfection, and the wagyu burger was excellent. Service made the night feel even better. Janine took amazing care of us with genuine warmth and attention. Scotty at the bar created fantastic drinks and added great energy to the evening. Everything about this visit was exceptional. Check out the photos because the presentation is as beautiful as the food is delicious. Prime Cut continues to deliver an unforgettable dining experience every time.

4-stars service and in the quality and taste. Very classy decorations and layout. Modern and classy. Executive summary: Depth of menu:5/5 Drink menu:5/5 Good for groups Paloma provided us with 5-star service and attention. Got the pork chops, you get four pork chops with the bone in and they tasted delicious. Not overcooked and not overbearing in the seasoning. I recommend you order this menu item when you're very hungry. I only finished two pork chops. My wife ordered the sea bass and prawns. Sea bass was melt in your mouth deliciousness. Prawns were also tasty. We will definitely come back, and make reservations.

Beautiful ambiance, clean, great outside and inside views with a lovely live piano player. The service is amazing and each staff seem to know their knowledge on their whole menu and make decision making very easy going. The food is immaculate. First things first, the bread and BUTTER is already perfect and yummy... I love a good whip salted butter. So far my favorites from here that I've gotten would hands down be the grilled octopus with extra chimichurri sauce, so freshly made. Also the seafood pasta was perfectly creamy, filling and delicious. I'd recommend the shrimp cocktail as well as they serve large shrimp pieces with a beautiful Ice fog presentation . The desserts cart is so cute too! It holds a delicious variety of delicate Sweet treats..

This whole establishment continues to impress and supersede any expectations i had. I just got back from vegas and was scheduled to eat at Joel robuchon with their 525$ per person degustation menu. I went here in the past when i had so much food comp i didnt know what to do with it. However, i was too busy losing 5k in slots I just ignored my dinner! Boy, was i on tilt!!! So, i figured Prime can replace my missed dining venture. Prime is elegant, classy, and the food looks divine! Its dimly lit inside and the tables are nicely spread. Its decor is classic and the vibe is really relaxing. I decided to do the prix fix menu at 100$ a person. Very reasonable as it came with a lot! We get complimentary bread at the start. At joel robuchon, you get a bread cart even with the express menu, which is already 325$ a person. Nothing can beat the bread cart at Joel robuchon, but this bread at Prime was VERY good. They have a creamy garlic chives butter that compliments the bread very well! This butter, Joel Robuchon doesnt have! I chose the salad over the soup. My husband had the soup and it was very very robust in flavor! It has sausage and is rich and creamy. My salad had a light dressing. I could use more flavor here. I got a charcuterie board as an appetizer. The bread is fantastic and the cheese is great. My husband got the chicken with asian chili. This was fantastic. Such flavor and the portion is generous. For our mains, we both chose the steak and lobster. To my surprise, my rare steak was tender and reminded me why I can no longer be a vegetarian! The lobster was fluffy and chewy and nicely prepared! The mash was blended perfectly and the asparagus had a wonderful crunch to it. It was really such a tasty and satisfying dish for me. Finally, for dessert we both got creme brulee. There was a good serving of real fruits on top and the creme brulee was soft, creamy, and perfect tasting with the perfect amount of charred glaze on top. Our server, Paris, was such a pleasure. She was classy and kind and attentive to our needs. With her, she made my experience that much better. She brought us different steak knives so we can choose what we want to use. This was a nice touch. Paris always checked on us, packaged our to-go food, and possesed a great vibe! At the end, she gave us a complimentary pallete cleanser of sorbet and chocolate! That was very cool and much appreciated! Even if the food at Joel Robuchon is A LOT more expensive and the experience is supposed to be unparalleled, at Prime, the food was much better than at Joel's, and the service was also extraordinary. It just shows you, fine dining and good food comes at different prices and different locations and different chefs and all different walks of culinary. Price is just stupid when you go into the thousands of dollars. Its just like when I had Nus er et. The steaks maybe 3500$, but look where salt Bae is now? Shutting down most of his restaurants. His steaks also tasted not as good at the one I had at Prime. Would I come again? Yes yes yes!

From the moment we walked in, the restaurant smelled absolutely amazing and had beautiful music played live by a very talented pianist. The staff was incredibly professional and welcoming, setting the tone for a fantastic experience. Our host, David, was so pleasant, and our server, Antoine, was outstanding and extremely knowledgeable and even walked us through the unique selection of steak knives to choose from, which was such a fun touch. We ordered the prix fixe menu, which can sometimes be a gamble, but it did not disappoint in the slightest. The portions were generous, and the quality and presentation were superb. Our steaks were cooked to absolute perfection, and the cocktails were expertly crafted. To top it all off, we ordered the tableside bananas foster, which was the perfect ending and made our food coma feel heavenly. This place is an easy 10/10, and we can't wait to come back!

I've been coming to this casino for almost 8 years, I've done this wonderful upscale steakhouse several times! Love the food and service here! The chefs that they have really put a lot of thought into the menu for their guest!! Everything about this place is all about excellence, and giving the guests a great experience with not only the quality of the food but, also the quiet fine dining atmosphere, as well as the Presentation of everything! You can make a reservation easily with them, and there's a menu online if you want to know what they serve ahead. If you don't have reservations on some nights, you might be able to get a table, just check with the friendly hostess in the front when they open ! Might wanna call ahead to see if they are open to the public- as sometimes they have private buyouts as this is a popular place to host parties!! Once you arrive to the venue, the hostess will get you seated ASAP! One seated, just know that they don't rush you out of this place, so if you're in a hurry, you probably need to let your server know, and you also wanna make sure you have enough time to enjoy your dinner here! (oh yeah, PS they have a brunch here too. That is amazing!) When you're seated, I'm not sure if anybody notices but they actually measure and perfect every piece of silverware and glassware on the table. Everything has its perfect placement there like it's a 5 Star Michelin restaurant! Forgot to mention if you have to wait a little bit for your table to get ready, you can hop on over to the bar. It's a beautifully lit marble, looking bar and get a drink there before you sit at your table. But if you get sat right away then the waiter can take your drink order from the bar easily If you're tight on time order all of your food at once like your starters, then your meal, and sides, etc. This time we ordered two salads, oysters on a half shell, half dozen, and I had never tried this 30 ounce steak that I didn't even know they had,, it comes out on a sizzling plate! This was large enough that the two of us ate it, and I'm sure third person could've ate it as well Specialties Côte De Boeu, it's 100.00 and you're getting a large 30 oz. Prime Bone in Ribeye Steak, Sliced and Served on a Hot Sizzle Platter with Herb Infused Hot Clarified Butter (Pair With Alexander Valley Vineyards Cabernet - $13) Our food didn't take too long to come out, and it all came out in order. Salad first with appetizer and then the steak. I actually typically like to do dessert first and a salad last, but I had forgot to ask in advance to change the order. Everything about this place is always amazing! All the servers are very friendly, sweet, and it's a classy place! The food is always on point! I've also gotten food to go as well! If I could review this place 20 times I would! Couple of tips if you want to check out there pretty bar and all their different alcohols that they carry! Once you get your menu and order, There's also a full bar with some of the best bartenders in San Diego! Make sure to ask for Scotty or anyone else on the team, they are all awesome! They have a really wide selection of all sorts of alcohol, and especially the top shelf brands! I forgot to mention that there's a beautiful wall of a ton of wine when you first walk in, it goes all the way up to the high ceilings! There's also private back room that can close off so you can have a dinner party there as well. Sometimes they have a piano player, or jazz, singers, or violinist, and once in a while, they have a DJ. Lastly, I wanted to mention how much I love the lighting in there as well! It's not too dim we can't read your menu and see things, and it's not too bright white lights where they're coming down on you like a spotlight! It's just perfect. From the inside of the restaurant, you don't even realize that you're in a casino atmosphere if you walk outside. It's not loud inside this restaurant so you can really have conversations! Big time Compliments to the whole staff!

A solid steakhouse that has been very much above average on my visits. Charcuterie plates, steaks, sides, soups and salads have all been very good. Service can be a little slow at times, but one thing I did notice was the bread guy comes out right away and delivers the plate of rustic breads and fresh soft butter. I honestly haven't been to more than a handful of steakhouses, but being at a casino I somehow felt that they are just a slight cut below. That being said, I haven't navigated the menu much and it does change by season. The last visit we shared the Argentina themed platter, and it was pretty impressive and even took a little home. The strip steak was very tender and moist even the next day reheated! We came a long time ago when it was actually a different name, maybe when it was Hollywood Casino. They were getting a subsidy back then from Tropicana Las Vegas Casino. Not a noticeable difference now. We were considering ordering another drink but the waiter took really long and by that time we decided not to. So there's that. Usually there is a jazz guy playing the piano for nice background music while you dine. It's not loud, very mellow and fits the theme perfectly of the restaurant. Good ambiance. Definitely would like to try more things here, and I know we'll be back with hopes that we won't be left waiting extended periods to order extra drinks and/or close our bill.

Good service and an awesome lobster buffet brunch for a fair price! We came into this brunch with zero expectations to avoid being disappointed if we didn't enjoy it. Well, I enjoyed it! We were debating on the lobster buffet here and 100s in Mission Valley and I'm so glad we chose to come here. I never waited in the lobster line for more than a few minutes and each time, I was given multiple lobsters; once I even got 6! There are 2 types of lobster, steamed and I think lightly fried since there is a light batter on it. I tried some other things and enjoyed everything. The selection is pretty small though. The prime rib and shrimp cocktail are good. The crab legs are also good but aren't split in half like other casinos so it was difficult to get very much of the crabmeat out. But the main star was the lobster! I really enjoyed it and I will definitely be back!

We just started coming to Jamul Casino, and after our 2nd visit, we got invited to try Prime Cut Steakhouse to use our comps. We made reservations for Saturday at 5pm and there weren't too many people seated or waiting. I do want to mention that the parking structure gets CHAOTIC on busy days/nights. We were 10min. late to our reservation because of the parking structure being packed, and there being limited spots available. Thank goodness we had cell service in the structure, I was able to call the restaurant and let them know the issue. They were very accommodating, and completely understood (they have a hard time finding parking too). After entering the Casino, we made a direct path towards the restaurant. The entrance looks a little downplayed... but that may be the look they were going for so it looks more exclusive, but if you're not looking closely for it, you may just pass it up. After you check-in with the lovely hosts, they will escort you in and let me tell you...It.Is.Beautiful! The entrance does not do the inside justice...a huge window looking out towards a gorgeous landscape, and the romance aspect is 10/10!! This was perfect, because we were celebrating our anniversary! Our waitress quickly greeted us, gave us some bread/butter and took our orders. We went with the bone marrow appetizer, rib-eye steak with lobster, and the Wagyu Steak. EVERYTHING was delicious and cooked perfectly! The flavors were wonderfully balanced and not overpowering at all. After we ate, they brought over a surprise anniversary cake! AND it was SOOOOO good! I still think about that cake to this day. If your at Jamul Casino or nearby, please check them out! Its a GREAT date night spot, or even a girls/guys night out!
