Donovan's of La Jolla
4340 La Jolla Village Drive
La Jolla, CA 92122
We made a trip to san Diego for our 4 year anniversary. We ate here on the first night and it was to best meal and service that we had the entire trip. I'll keep the review short since I believe that you shouldn’t have to say a lot if an experience is great or terrible.
The food was great and the service was AWESOME. The hostesses were a little uptight, but the wait staff more than made up for it. It cost us $125 for steaks, apptz. and 2 drinks. Worth the money though. Looked like there were lots of couples, not so much families. The only thing that would have made it better was a view of the water.

Would recommend!
