Title: Donovan's -
Review:
I'm generally a big fan of the shoreline eateries in La Jolla for obvious reasons. Donovan's, however, I will make an exception for. It is a classic restaurant, but good steaks and a great adult beverage selection make it work. You might miss the sunshine, the sea, and the breeze, but if you're there with the right people it's a great place to be.

The meal and service was very good. The wine selection fair and way to pricy.

Title: Popularity comes with reason -
Review:
I wasn't sure what to expect from Donovan's; great restaurants forget why they became great. Some start off with a great dish and with time that dish loses quality because of conformity. Of course, in a sense. However, my experience at Donovan's was incredible. Great service, amazing food and awesome ambience. The hosts, waiters and bus boys always had a smile and treated you like a celebrity.

Title: Great Steakhouse, Phenomenal Service. -
Review:
The wait staff (of which we had four all to ourselves) took very good care of us. There wasn't more than 3-5 minutes between check-ins. They kept our drinks topped off and our table clean. And our waitress helped personalize our wine selection based on our menu choices. The meal itself was as expected from a 5 star restaurant. The steaks were cooked to specification and seasoned to absolute perfection. I ordered the Rib-eye and the wife had a NY Strip, both where out of this world. The side dishes however were OK at best. We had the seasoned veggies and the Garlic Smashed Potatoes and though they were good, they were nothing to write home about, and definitely sub-par for such an "expensive meal." But in the end the service, the steaks, and the wine selection is easily reason enough to have us coming back for more. I highly recommend this restaurant, just know the sides will not "Wow" anyone.
