| - It often looks too busy for my taste at the Pinnacle Grille when passing by (I live up the street)... but it was empty and serene this past afternoon so we decided to give it a try for a late lunch.
My girlfriend and I both had 'Royal Pinnacle' angus burgers (swiss, sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onion, spring mix, and tomato on a ciabatta bun). Both burgers were delicious and done exactly as ordered (one medium rare, the other well). Most burgers are around $11 including a side... both the steak fries and sweet potato fries were good.
I just wanted to mention this after seeing 'JD A.'s review. I don't doubt his account, but also noted on Pinnacle Grille's site that a new chef from San Diego just started in May, 2011. For what its worth, the attached press release also said "In 2009, San Diego Tribune selected his burger as the best in the city". Whoever they had grilling did a great job (OK.. its not rocket science)...
All I can say is that we were satisfied, the service was great, and we plan to return... might even brave a crowded 'Happy Hour' sometime.
