“Except for the long drive-through lines, it’s worth going. And I have to actually admit that the lines move pretty quickly.
I do think that they ought to put their napkins in a separate small bag, before dropping them in on top of the burgers. I can never use them by the time I get home because they’re covered with sauce and cheese!
But that’s just me!“

“One of our favorite spots in Carlsbad! The atmosphere is always so good, the beer selection is amazing, the food hits every time, and the staff truly makes this place what it is.

Steel and Cass are THE BEST. We specifically love coming in for San Diego Sundays because they make it such a fun time every single time. Such a great spot to come watch a game. The service is always incredible, they are so welcoming, so attentive, and they bring the best energy. They are a huge reason we keep coming back.

The beer selection is insane too. Tons of cans and bottles to choose from, so many great IPAs, and always something new to try. And do not sleep on the food. The burgers are all so good, the black truffle burrata is unreal, and the Getting Figgy With It pizza with prosciutto added, per Steel’s recommendation, is a MUST.

Perfect for lunch, beers with friends, date night, or just hanging out for a few hours. Great food, great drinks, great vibes, and even better people. Steel and Cass deserve all the hype. We love this place!“

“I had the Mediterranean crunch salad, and it was just okay. A handful of the greens in the salad were wilty or turning yellow, which is disappointing when you're paying $20 for a simple salad. My boyfriend got the red curry, which he said tasted like a backpacking MRE (in a bad way). Speakers out on the patio are unnecessary and music is too loud. Friendly service was a plus.“
