Dobson’s offers a delightful dining escape in a cozy, historic setting. The Prime Ribeye was perfectly cooked, and the house bread with butter was a treat. Our server, Lino, made the experience even better. Don't miss the tasty shrimp and mushroom ajillo for a late-night snack!...

Dobson's Bar & Restaurant is a delightful find in San Diego! ✨ We enjoyed a lovely dinner before heading to a show at the nearby Civic Theatre.

I had the Prime Ribeye, perfectly cooked, paired beautifully with two local IPAs. The service from Lino was exceptional, adding to the warm, cozy atmosphere.

Don't miss the shrimp and mushroom ajillo as a late-night snack, and the desserts are a nice finish!

While the crème brûlée could improve, overall, it was a fantastic experience. Highly recommend it for a charming meal! 🍷
