Dobson's Bar and Restaurant is a hidden treasure in the heart of Downtown San Diego/Gaslamp Quarter. For the last 40 years, this has been the hot spot for business lunches and frequented by many local and nationwide celebrities. Paul Dobson, the namesake for Dobson's bar and restaurant, is one of America's few professional Bullfighters. The food is California cuisine with a touch of Italian, French, Spanish and Asian cuisine. One thing that both local San Diegans and Zagat can agree on is that this is one of the top restaurants in San Diego. Due to the limited seating and popularity, reservations are highly recommended. Owner Paul Dobson "works a room better than Sinatra", which explains why this "local tradition" downtown remains, "after all these years", a "high-powered, hobnob spot"; the Cal kitchen "serves up delicious, innovative food, along with old standbys" ("have the mussel bisque and think of heaven").

    We absolutely loved the decor and view here. The whole vibe was amazing. Our table was on the patio and we had beautiful views all night as the sun set and buildings all lit up. The food was good, but the chef somehow misjudged the lemon on everything. Alot of what we ordered that was prepared with lemon had way too much lemon. We couldn't eat our broccolini (and we ordered 2 large plates of it for the table) because it was so sour with the lemon. I mentioned it to the chef but he didnt do anything about it. He did however bring us a birthday treat which was very special. We had a wonderful time and will for sure be back! Thank you so much!

    The food, cocktails, and service were all excellent. We had several sides plus the 16oz steak and sea bass. The steak was so tender and the sea bass was the best we ever had. Our friends’ cocktails were great; my sake flight was awesome; and my husband loved the beer selection. The interior is sexy yet warm and comfortable. Loved our experience at Animae and highly recommend for a special night out!

    They are amazing! My FAVORITE server Jacob is so attentive and makes sure that our drinks NEVER hits the bottom of the glass! I've NEVER had a bad plate. From the full entrees, appetizers, pizza and their salads it has ALL been so good. Great ingredients and so flavorful. They have the BEST espresso martitinis. Soooo good! Giuseppe the owner is always there ensuring that he helps his staff run the place so smoothly and checking in on all customers. Thank so much!!

    We are at the bar and Tommy the bartender was amazing. Best in class service. We were celebrating a birthday and he made us feel so welcome and taken care of. The food and drink were equally as amazing.
