The Smoking Goat offers a delightful blend of French elegance and casual charm! I savored the duck, perfectly rich with a zesty sauce, alongside the indulgent steak frites. Don’t skip the goat cheese cheesecake - it’s uniquely fluffy! Great service from Scotty made our anniversary memorable. Can’t wait to return!

The Smoking Goat Restaurant is a gem in San Diego! 🌟 From the moment we walked in, the warm, rustic decor made us feel right at home.

I had the duck, and it was sublime - perfectly cooked with a sauce that balanced richness beautifully. My husband enjoyed the steak frites, cooked to perfection, and we couldn't resist the duck fat fries - absolutely worth it!

Scotty, our server, was attentive and knowledgeable, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. We ended with the goat cheese cheesecake, which was uniquely fluffy and tangy.

Can't wait to return! 🍽️✨
