Bob's Steak & Chop House

If you’re looking for an unforgettable steakhouse experience, Bob’s Chophouse in La Costa is the place to go. The steak? Absolutely phenomenal—easily the best I’ve ever had. Perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and melt-in-your-mouth tender. And let’s talk about that carrot—oh my God, incredible. It tastes like Thanksgiving in the best way possible, rich and perfectly seasoned. If you somehow still have room, the dessert is completely over the top and worth every bite. On top of the amazing food, the service was outstanding. Nikki was hands down one of the best servers I’ve ever had—attentive, knowledgeable, and truly made the experience top-notch. Overall, Bob’s Chophouse isn’t just a 5-star spot—it’s a 10 out of 5. If you’re in La Costa and love a great steak, this place is a must-visit.

We celebrated New Year's Eve at this charming steakhouse located in a chic and beautifully designed hotel, and the experience was a mix of highs and a slight miss. Opting for outdoor seating was a fantastic choice—it was magical dining beside a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, with the festive ambiance adding to the evening's charm. The staff were wonderful—friendly, attentive, and quick to accommodate any requests. Their warmth definitely enhanced the overall experience. Food-wise, the clam chowder was the star of the meal—creamy, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. It’s definitely something we’d come back for. However, the steak, unfortunately, didn’t live up to the same standard. It wasn’t bad, but it lacked the “wow” factor you’d expect from a steakhouse. In the end, the stunning atmosphere and excellent service made it a memorable evening, even if the steak fell short of expectations. A great spot for a special occasion, especially if you're looking to soak in the festive vibes.

Took party of six for dinner last night - celebration of wife's birthday. Seated promptly at time of reservation - 6:30pm. Ordered drinks, appetizers and entrees at same time. Warm bread was delicious. Within half hour had drinks and 3 of 4 appetizers delivered. About 15minute delay for last 2 appetizers to be delivered - after I complained to our waiter.. We became very concerned over the delay in being served our entrees. Half of my party reached a point of no longer feeling hungry and suggesting we leave. No update from our server on when our dinners were to be expected. Entrees received at 8pm ! This was 90 minutes after being seated - and, again we ordered entrees promptly, not after eating appetizers. On positive side, the food tasted good and steaks were cooked as ordered. Overall the spotty service and delay in being served the entrees was a major annoyance for a special occasion. The value was definitely not there.

Walking up to Bob's was like walking into a movie. During the holiday season it's very picturesque and the atmosphere was awesome. Greeted at the door with smiles and cheer, the restaurant itself has an old world feel to it. The staff were great, they seemed genuinely happy to be there. The food was what you would expect from a place such as Bob's. Well prepared, presents nicely, not flashy and delicious. My filet was perfectly pink and the glazed whole carrot was delicious as were the mashed potatoes. It can be tricky getting to the restaurant and parking is limited unless you want to walk a bit. Highly recommend the valet and get your ticket checked at the restaurant.

Wonderful dinner at Bob’s steak & chop house! Located in the Omni La Costa Resort and is definitely top notch. Our server was amazing and made great recommendations for items on the menu. They are known for their steaks but the seafood was delicious as well! If you are looking for a new steak house try this place out!

Delicious food, fantastic service (Antonio was knowledgeable and friendly). Would recommend it. The only downside is the price point - other places offer the same quality for less.

Good steak, but wasn’t wowed with much else than the company and ambiance. Service was courteous and welcoming. Noise level was good even though it was packed by the time we left the restaurant. Highly recommend making reservations.

Thankful for Bob’s this Thanksgiving! We were a party of 8 for Thanksgiving dinner. Service was excellent and food is consistently good. We love the pickles on the table and warm bread. Steaks are cooked to perfection and come with a side dish. Seafood plates however do not come with a side. We are thinking about coming back for Christmas. Happy Thanksgiving from Bob’s!
