Over two decades ago, Rainwater’s brought the first Eastern-style fine steak and chophouse to San Diego and has been accumulating awards ever since. Entrance by way of an elegant stairway transports diners to the ambience of a private club with exceptional service, complete with owners Laurel and Paddy Rainwater acting as hosts. Rainwater’s award-winning wine list pairs with classic steakhouse specialties, distinct salads, and quality seafood fare. Whether you go in for an upscale dinner or a more moderately-priced lunch, Rainwater’s on Kettner is a cut above the rest.

Review Title: Not worthy!
When I choosed this restaurant was based upon good reviews. Unfortunately when we arrived there was nobody to sit us it was not until my wife moved to the bar area they noticed are precense.The door towards the bathroom was opened and smell was not nice. After sitting service was very good but food was not what we expected. I would not recomend this restaurant to a friend.
