Pamplemousse Grille

Even those "not easily impressed" will be "blown away" by the French–New American "masterpieces", "magisterial" wine list and "sticker-shock prices" at this "class act" in a Solana Beach office complex; "bigger-than-life" chef-owner Jeffrey Strauss is a "great host", guiding "warm yet not intrusive" service in an "elegant, comfortable" space (decorated with "farm paintings") that attracts a...

Pamplemousse Grille Restaurant Review

Pamplemousse Grille chef Jeffrey Strauss worked as a New York caterer before arriving in San Diego. Drop by this casually elegant spot for lunch and enjoy baked goat cheese and oven-roasted shiitakes with seasonal greens, or tomato confit with avocado and crab meat. Dinner gets more sumptuous; we suggest the Fanny Bay oysters on the half shell, mixed grill of game (smoked Muscovy duck breast,...

Amazing food. Jamon Iberico is so good. Best porkchop. Wine list for days. That's 7 years in a row to celebrate my wife's birthday at her favorite restaurant.

Food was awesome and the waiter was very knowledgeable. I would recommend sitting in a booth if at all possible. There is very little space between tables.

One of the best restaurants we visit each year in San Diego or the Chicago area where we spend the summer.
