Reviews for Fort Oak in San Diego, CA
The food was amazing! Everything was really good. Loved the salad, ribeye, chicken pate, goat milk pasta, etc. The shrimp was... overcooked. Come here with a group so you can try a bunch of stuff. The drinks were good but a little slow to get them.Definitely worth coming back again! Read more
What a gem of a restaurant. Vibrant without being loud. Great outdoor dining area. We had the trout and the pork chops and both... were excellent. We also had the blueberry lemonade and the pineapple limeade, and both were super refreshing on a hot day. Thestaff is fantastic as well. Read more

Classy restaurant without the snobby vibe! It's a fun yet elegant place to celebrate you next special occasions ($$$). My... friends took me there for a nice dinner to celebrate my new job and I was pleasantly surprised by this place. The service wasimpeccable. Our server, Miguel, was extra attentive and everyone worked that night was extremely pleasant. The gentlemen whocame around to refill everyones water glass made sure that we had ours refilled with the sparkling water but not the regular tapwater. We ordered 3 small plates to share: embered swordfish, charred caulilini, chicken fried quail. ***small plates are onlygood for 2, max 3, people to share. Do not expect large portion.*** My favorite was the chicken fried quail. Not too greasy. Thecharred caulilini was very flavorful with a mixed of nutty flavor and sweetness. My friends ordered the New York strip It wasjuicy and the mushroom sauce complimented it perfectly. I ordered the half duck as my dinner entree. The duck leg was cooked toperfection. Duck breast was a little fibrous-y and chewy(probably because of the fat(, but the duck leg was cooked toperfection. The duck leg was tender and scrumptious with lots of flavor. We finished with 2 desserts: the tree claire and thestrawberry tart. Tree Claire was definitely light and not too sweet. Read more
Great service! Yummy food but did not like the extra charge because owners don’t pay their employees enough so they pass the... charge off to customers. Just make the food more expensive! Makes you look bad! We enjoyed the espresso martinis! Read more
Nice grilled new American food. Unique looking building and great ambiance. Enjoyed the oysters and the sourdough bread. Bread... pudding dessert was delicious. Recommend the carrots. Read more
Came early. Got seated no questions. Server was great. Patient. Kind. Attentive. Scallops fresh. Oysters excellent. Ham light... and perfect. Pasta, I liked it? Needed more texture. Half duck- okay the breast was probably one of the most well cooked duckbreast I’ve had in a while. But the quarter was really over cooked. I don’t know if baked or roasted, but when a duck isover cooked it’s got that fibrous texture in your mouth. Over all a really great experience. Was still hungry. Just didn’twant anymore. Read more
Uncomfortably cold ???? dining experience, we would have been better to sit on the patio as there were heat lamps out there. ... Food was exceptionally good, nice atmosphere and great server. Would go back but bring a second coat, hat and gloves. Brrr Read more
