    Overall, it was an AMAZING experience except that the music was way too loud. It would have been perfect if they turned it down a notch. We did tell one of the wait staff but was told that the volume is preset. The food was VERY expensive but delicious. ALL of the wait staff were exceptional. It was wonderful experience for a special occasion.

    We 1st discovered Steak 48 in Scottsdale and were delighted when Del Mar opened last year. We have dined here a few times since opening, never disappointed, and were especially impressed this time around with our server, Armin. The high quality food & preparation, red carpet treatment, valet, and top shelf service brings us back for special occasions. This night, we were celebrating a birthday...Armin brought the highest quality service, information and timing to make our experience sweet. I appreciate that he had better than average wine knowledge and tested me on the wines :-). I guessed correctly and he continued to enhance our experience by placing our salad orders quickly then finishing our entree order and accompaniments. The timing was perfect and something that I have come to judge with "other places." We have come to the conclusion that we cannot go wrong ever by choosing Steak 48 for our favorite dining experience. We have a lot of great options in North County, but they are hit and miss service wise. This is 10 out of 10. If I had to complain, it would be that the corn brulee got too hot/toasted on the heated plates.

    The food was spectacular! Everything we’d heard about was true! The restaurant was beautiful! Service was refreshingly fabulous. Everybody from server to maitre’d to busers to valet were all professional, knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. Loved everything about our evening. It was wonderful way to celebrate a birthday. If I had to suggest an improvement, it would be to maybe not wax the floors so well. It made them slippery and with sliding levels, it made it a bit difficult to navigate without my husband’s arm. :) Will definitely be going back.

    First visit and found the food and service to be excellent. Our server Dylan was quite good and we appreciated his explaining the menu and options since it was our first visit. The petite filet mignon steaks were cooked to our request and were very tasty. Salads were large and also tasty. The baked potato was huge. Dessert was large and we shared it. Compliments to our server Dylan as we were seated to a group that had a couple of very noisy children and he offered to reseat us but we as grandparents understood the trials of smaller children at a restaurant and we declined the move. Will return to this restaurant as we enjoyed the food and the service.
