“What a wonderful diner! We had 3 apps and they were all suoer tasty, do not skip the deviled eggs (best I have ever had). The bistro special meal was perfect, just right for one.

“It was about noon as I left my Doctors office and feeling a little hungry. I say Pegah’s Kitchen next door and gave it a try. The staff were all very professional. I had their Italian omelette and if I had to rate it on a one to 10 scale with 10 being the best, I would give it a 12. This is the Vista location. Highly recommend this place for breakfast and lunch, as they are not open for dinner.“

“Independently owned small-time mom and pop type business I've been coming to for years. It's not the best but it does a very good job when it comes to food. The interior is very dated but that's part of its charm

Dietary restrictions: They have a huge array of food options. I've never tried all of them

Wheelchair accessibility: First floor easy to get in by wheelchair. The Establishment has booths and tables so plenty of options to pull in a wheelchair“

“Great food and great service. The chicken was crispy, juicy, and full of flavor. The spice level was just right, and the portions were generous for the price. The staff were friendly and the restaurant was clean. Definitely one of the better hot chicken spots I’ve tried, and I’ll be coming back again.“

“We had such a lovely breakfast experience at the Garden Center Cafe & Restaurant, and a big part of that was thanks to Oracio. From the moment we arrived, he was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. He made sure everything was perfect without ever being overbearing, and his positive attitude really stood out.

Our food came out quickly, everything was fresh and delicious, and Oracio checked in at just the right times to make sure we had everything we needed. It’s rare to come across service that feels this natural and kind.

He truly made our morning feel special. We’ll definitely be coming back, and we hope to be served by him again!“

“Been eating breakfast from Pegah's for awhile thru Doordash. Great homestyle food. Good eggs Benedict. Thanks to the Chef. ?“

“A Hidden Gem Near Welk Resort – Don’t Let the Renovations Fool You!

While staying at the Welk Resort—which isn’t exactly known for its dining options—my husband and I ventured just a couple miles down the road to Oaks Bar and Grill, and we’re so glad we did.

The first thing you’ll notice is the fluttering BBQ signs that help you spot the place easily. The restaurant is currently undergoing renovations, and admittedly, the interior atmosphere might not immediately draw you in—but trust me, persevere. The food more than makes up for it.

For dinner on Mother's Day, I ordered the pulled pork sandwich with a side of fries and, on a fellow patron’s recommendation, the potato salad. I’m usually not a “double potato” person, but I’m so glad I listened. The pork was perfectly tender, lightly sauced so the flavor of the meat shone through, and incredibly satisfying.

My husband went for the Korean BBQ options on the menu and ordered the bulgogi plate with fried rice and kimchi. We were both blown away by the taste and quality—so much so that we decided to return the next day. The kimchi was so good.

On our second visit (for breakfast around 10:00am!), the chef—who seemed to be a Korean mama and clearly knows what she's doing—recommended the spicy Korean pork. We both ordered it, and it was nothing short of phenomenal.

We also ordered take-out bulgogi and kimchi to take home for dinner! It was nicely packed up and excellent reheated.

There’s also a full bar onsite, and during the day, the space seems to serve as part of the golf course pro shop. While the setting may still be in transition, the food here is next-level and truly makes Oaks Bar & Grill a hidden gem in the area. We’ll absolutely be back!“

“Who woulda thunk that a Reuben sandwich with eggs could taste amazing! The chowder was fresh tasting and soda fountain was regulated correctly!“

“The food is wonderful, plentiful and the service is excellent. The breadsticks and a side of marinara is a great start.“

“Delicious, comfortable spot.“

“Beautiful gardens. Peaceful and relaxing. Dined there once. The service and food was great“

“Food is good however, I ordered my Eggs Bene pouched medium to hard they came super loose - yuck. They don’t tell you the potatoes are made with red potatoes- yuck. Lastly, the outside patio is filthy. Really really gross sticky.“

“We love Bar Meets Grill! The food is always spectacular especially when Carlos is the chef on duty and the service is ALWAYS top notch. Everyone is so welcoming and attentive from Miriam at the front to Behrouz bringing the bread, singing Happy Birthday with his beautiful voice and bussing tables to almost all of the servers….Stephen, Tiffany, Sean…everyone is incredible there. We had the pleasure of having Stephen for our waiter for our Valentines date with our daughter and he is always exceptional and accommodating! The jumbo shrimp cocktail was delicious and the steaks flavor was amazing. Best desserts too especially the flourless chocolate cake (highly recommend)! This is always our go to restaurant whether is for a date night or even taking our kids out in their birthdays( it is all 3 of our kids favorite restaurant). Thanks to everyone at Bar Meets Grill for always making us feel so welcome and taking the best care of us consistently!“

“Islands is one of those iconic chain restaurants that has truly stood the test of time, consistently delivering mouthwatering dishes that keep customers coming back for more. Our experience was made even better by our server, Nina, who was simply fantastic. She made sure we had everything we needed, seamlessly enhancing our dining experience.

We kicked things off with a heaping plate of nachos, and let me tell you, they were a game-changer. Picture crispy chips generously smothered in gooey melted cheese, topped with fresh tomatoes, zesty jalapeños, a dollop of sour cream, creamy guacamole, and a side of flavorful salsa. Each bite was a delight, especially with the extra cheese that pooled on the plate, perfect for scooping up with the bottom chips.

The drinks were nice and cold, hitting the spot. Then came our two burgers, cooked to perfection—juicy and full of flavor. And what better way to wrap up such a delicious meal than with a rich, decadent mud pie? It was the cherry on top of an already fantastic experience.

With impeccable service, scrumptious food, and prices that won’t break the bank, Islands continues to impress—making it a must-visit spot for any burger lover!

Vegetarian options: Almost every menu item can be made vegetarian.

Parking: The oversized parking lot is shared with the other businesses. But there always seems to be enough parking spaces.“

“excellent drinks & food.“

“My favorite employee left. She was like my second mom.Breakfast is where it's at. Lunch is so-so. Best food you can get for the price. Staff is 99% awesome except for the one person who is grumpy to everyone and will undercook your eggs if you really tick her off. Regular omelette lady is 10/10.One of the best chow halls I've eaten at in 18 years of service. (DFACs don't count).“

“Outstanding bar and grill!!“

“My family and I went to this restaurant last Saturday and we had an amazing time. Everything from the food to the atmosphere was great, but what really stood out was the service from Hugo.

He was so friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed the entire time. Even though it was busy, he stayed calm, professional, and kept such a positive attitude. You can tell he genuinely cares about giving people a great experience.

We’ll definitely be coming back, and we hope to have Hugo again!“

“The food and service is very good. I normally order to go. I don't dine in much. The smell in the last location is not pleasant. There is a oder from the bathroom sewerage. It's been going on for months. I really like the menu's prices.“

“Great, casual place to visit in Carlsbad! Outdoor patio -Pet/kid friendly setting downstairs, and an adult upper deck bar with ocean view and fire pits. Good food and craft beer, extensive drink menu! Walk up counter ordering, and fast service!“

Thanks to her expert menu recommendations we ordered and enjoyed some awesome drinks, appetizers and of course some exquisite entrees. This is easily one of, if not the best meal we’ve ever eaten. I cannot recommend this place enough! Danielle’s high customer service skills enabled a warm and welcoming environment!“

We will definitely be back when we come to visit“

“The Pour House became one of my favorite bars! The food is great and not too expensive! The staff works hard and makes you feel welcome! Great spot for live bands and always good vibes! Never had problems parking but for that smashburger i would walk 500 miles and 500 more hahaha 📸🤓“

“I had the Mushroom chicken sandwich. The chicken was seasoned with a slight rosemary flavor. The mushrooms were done and added a great flavor. The Swiss was melted into the sandwich giving it a good cohesive blend. You valet a variety of choices for the side. I got home fries O'Brien. The service was spot on and friendly. There was 10 in our party and everything was great.“
