Cowboy Star And Butcher Shop

This might be my new favorite downtown restaurant. The rustic dishes, generous portions and incredible flavors, especially from the wood fired grill, are exceptional. I ordered everything on the starter menu to get a nice flavor tour, plus three desserts.The meatballs are fire smoked and crazy good. Always add the off-menu surf 'n 'turf option if available (yummy wood-firedshrimp). Service was great for what was a busy night.

Everything about this meal was on point. The food was cooked perfectly, thoughtful pairings, and came out quickly. The drinks were delicious and made really well. Service was fast, friendly, and the server put up with our ridiculous questions and senseof humor. I’ll definitely go back again.

De-li-cious! Cowboy star was one of the first restaraunts I went to while visiting San Diego on a work trip, and it messed up my food experience everywhere else because the other places couldn't compare. The steak here is spectacular. We ordered 3 differentcuts and all were amazing, perfectly seasoned and cooked at the exact right temperature. You wouldn't believe how many places DONOT get the temperature right in steaks. Amazing wine drinks selections, great decor, and the best bartenders in town. . . Theguy who in charge of the grill was a master of his art ????. . . I would def recommend this place go all , date or casual eat.

Another 5 star experience at Cowboy Star! We were lucky enough to have Francisco be out waiter again, truly made the experience 110% better. Our seating was excellent and the food was phenomenal.

An exceptional restaurant in San Diego! If you were traveling solo or even as a couple, reserve ahead and ask for seating at the chef‘s table. It is amazing to watch what happens behind the scenes at a high-quality restaurant. OK now for the food anddrinks. They have an extensive list of wines and cocktails. The Mezcal old-fashioned is totally delicious. They have $140Japanese Wagyu steak which is literally like butter. It is not for everyone because you don’t necessarily get the feeling ofeating an actual steak. The chocolate bread pudding and espresso martinis on the dessert menu are to die for. And for the mostimportant part, the staff and the service here is amazing.
