Savoie Italian Eatery - Chula Vista (CA)

3 /5 Angel Monch: We went on a group dinner and got a reservation, while waiting for the whole group we were drinking at the bar, suddenly they want us to sit already or we will lose our reservation. Then they didnt want us to take our drinks from the bar to the table even when we paid already. Food time was kind of slow and the waiters they didnt stop very often, we needed to be after them to ask for something. Place needed also some atmosphere music, place was so plain. Wont be an option to dinner again.

2 /5 scott jeretal: Made a birthday brunch reservation for indoor seating 24hrs prior to the reservation time. We waited 50 minutes to be seated. They did offer us outdoor seating but it was too cold, we had several kids with us. One of the authoritative figures there said “you made the reservation today, that’s why we’re not ready” which is false and why would a manager blame a guest to their face? Even if I did make the reservation that day, it should be honored. If you can’t honor reservations, don’t offer them. The workers did nothing like “hey have a seat at the bar and we’ll buy you a round of drinks” or anything at all to help the waiting. The food was relatively pricey but descent tasting. However it was very “what you see is exactly what you get” no sides or anything at all. Once seated, we waited for about 10 minutes before our drinks were in front of us. The final straw was when we got the check and it was full price. We spoke to manager and he gave us 10% off. That manager should have been proactive with trying to make it right, not wait to be asked. I usually don’t give bad reviews, but i had to due to fact that we waited so long, the manager falsely blamed us and also he didn’t even try to make it right until we asked. Thanks for the horrible birthday brunch experience. Never again.

4 /5 Alex Ryan: Visited for Father’s Day and enjoyed an afternoon meal. Server was friendly and we revived quick service, he warned us about a large party beginning their meal and got us in before they placed their order. Cocktails were mediocre, steak frites was a little fatty and the photographer produced low quality images but we still left with two. There is a DJ starting up at around 7 and would recommend coming in earlier if looking for a quiet environment. Overall, hip, modern restaurant worth trying.

4 /5 Christopher U: Second Review (Brunch) We tried Savoies brunch and for sure we are coming back. Ordered: Souffle Pancakes - fluffy and delicious pancakes with whipped cream/berries. 5/5 Savoie Benedict - perfect runny eggs the way I like it. Creamy, rich and buttery hollandaise sauce. I wished the crab/lobster/shrimp mixture had more seasoning on it. 4/5 Classic Breakfast - nothing special. Two over easy eggs, crispy bacon and well seasoned breakfast potatoes! 4/5 Cappuccino- 3/5 Orange Juice - 5/5 Highly recommended with their welcoming atmosphere, outstanding customer service and delicious food! First Review: First time here and we were surprised how good/delicious most of the dishes we ordered. We made a reservation for a Saturday dinner. Ordered: Lobster Ravioli - marinara sauce was so creamy and delicious. I wish they have two (2) more raviolis on it since its loaded with sauce. Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo - nothing special with the dish. I wish theres more sauce like the ravioll. Braised Polpo - right portion size and tender octopus. Dressing was good and balance. It compliments perfectly with the main ingredient, "octopus". So close with the polpos we had in Lisbon during our vacation. Highly recommended! Short Rib Lasagna - Al dente pasta plus well seasoned/juicy short rib and perfect ratio of cheese and sauce made it the best dish we had during our visit. For sure will order this again on our next visit. Most restaurants we ve visited offers free bread. Their bread is good but be prepared to pay $7.... Great and attentive customer service. Ambiance and decors looks great. No issues with parking. Savoie is highly recommended if you are looking for a great Italian food.

5 /5 Susan Brownlee: Got here ten minutes before brunch was going to end, but we were able to get our order in time. The food was really good. I had pancakes and they forgot to put the strawberry mascarpone, but they brought a side of it. It was delicious, as were the pancakes. The drinks were also good. They had a bunch of specialty drinks. The bartender was nice and answered any questions we had.
