Old Hickory Steakhouse in Chula Vista occupies the signature dining room inside the Gaylord Pacific Resort and Convention Center, overlooking the Bayfront waterfront on H Street. The kitchen pairs USDA Prime cuts with a surf-and-turf program that includes seared scallops and whole lobster tail, served against bayfront views that stretch toward Chula Vista Bayside Park and the marina beyond. An artisan cheese course and an extensive wine list curated by varietal and region round out a menu designed for multi-course pacing rather than single-plate speed. A 100-out-of-100 county health inspection score positions the kitchen among the highest-rated sanitation operations in all of Chula Vista, a standard consistent with the plated-dinner production demands at event spaces such as Factory of Dreams Hall San Diego. The dry-aged New York strip is finished tableside with compound herb butter and served alongside bone-marrow-enriched au jus, producing the menu's highest-ticket entrée at the $$$$ price tier.
