“We had a family vacation in Carlsbad and hired Chef Ty for a special dinner for 7 of us. What a wonderful experience with absolutely delicious food!! Everything from the appetizer to salad to the entree and dessert was absolutely delicious with unique elevated flavors! Chef Ty made it super fun with lots of laughter! I highly recommend him!“

“I have had a variety of Sessions Catering’s meals and offerings from
Christmas Party spreads to pre-made meals for open ocean races. Their chili during the winter is exceptional, and the breakfast burritos are second to none. If I only had Ssssions’ breakfast burritos for an entire 2000 mile race I’d be content the whole time!“

“We used Mexico City Cuisine for our wedding on 9/9/2022 and they were amazing! The food the night of the wedding was even better than the tasting we had. We also had them do a desert bar for us which included churros and icecream that was a hit! Not only did the food exceed our expectations, the workers helped set up our tables and place settings. They even helped with the cleanup process as well. I would 100% recommend them as your catering service as they go above and beyond!“

“Great hope in the wall BBQ. This place is the real deal and they even offer corn bread like some Mexican joints offer chips. It was a really nice touch. I have gotten with racks there and a few other things and I got say all there food is so good. They are in the process of trying to expand, I can't wait to visit then at a much larger location!“

“Everything I’ve ordered with Chrissy and her team is excellent. Each meal is carefully thought out and you can taste it. So much deliciousness in every bite!“

“Just stopped in for coffee! Menu looks fantastic-can’t wait to try! Cute decor and staff very friendly!“

“We just had my Mom's birthday party at Harvest Kitchen. The venue being the perfect size and already having beautiful decor, the staff was great, the food was great. I would highly recommend Harvest Kitchen“

“The best bean and cheese burritos. And the owners give great customer service!“

“We used Anything But Ordinary Catering last week for our celebration, and WOW—they truly lived up to their name!

From the moment guests arrived, everything felt elevated. The food was not only delicious but creative, fun, and beautifully presented—people are still talking about it! Every detail, from the stunning table setups to the seamless service, was handled with excellence and style.

And the bar team? Absolute stars. They brought energy, personality, and a fun flair to our signature drinks that made the whole experience feel customized.

If you want a catering team that goes above and beyond and creates an unforgettable experience, this is it. Highly, highly recommend!“

“After reading reviews we had to try and we were not disappointed. We initially had the brisket and tri tip and sides of mac and cheese , BBQ beans and potato salad. First off the BBQ sauce was exactly as it should taste sweet smoky with a little something left on tounge Perfect profile!. Meats were smoked to perfection and moist as it should be not dry. I would not hesitate to go back and plan on returning soon to try remainder of menu I actually ordered a sausage sandwich to go. Encourage you to try instead of some of the big box BBQ restaurants out there that struggle to make food to scale and lack consistency.“

“We just tried this for the first time and it was sooooo good we demolished it in like 5 min the silence was so loud cause we was just eating lmao 🤣 bomb asf highly recommend!“

“Highly recommend, Chef Frank is a real professional who takes pride in both his business and craft and I loved what he created for me and my friends. I can't wait for the chance to call on his services again!! Don't think twice about using Left Handed Infusions, just do it!! Job well done Chef Frank!! ?“

“This is my new favorite place. My friends and I stumbled upon it last week when we went to bingo at Belching Beaver in Oceanside and Spinning Meats was there. My favorite thing about their menu is the option “I’m having dinner later” aka girl dinner. Meat, fries, fried zucchini? Sign me up. Honestly that’s good enough, but how good it all is? Don’t even get me started on the onion rings… (actually the owner said they’re considering getting rid of the onion rings, and considering they’re easily the best I’ve ever had, please go assault him with onion ring requests!). Also the owner is super fun and he seriously deserves all the business you could give him. I couldn’t recommend this place more.“

“Food is outstanding This is finger licking good“

“Boy oh boy! We got the yearly subscription Black Friday deal for $100... and it really surpassed our expectations! 1 pizza a week for a year! Do the math... that's $2 a pizza! But beyond the price... the pizza is delicious! Homemade sauce and dough, fresh, crunchy and chewy! Can't wait for the other 51 pizzas! Telling all our friends!“

“Wow!!! Amazing food! Relaxed and comfortable vibe. Friendly and attentive staff. Spotlessly clean! We were greeted warmly and seated quickly.
Our server Jared really made us feel welcome. He offered great suggestions, answered questions and made sure we had everything we needed to have an exceptional dining experience. He checked on us frequently in such warm and friendly way - he really made our day.
The Brunch Point venue is open and airy (great breeze blowing through), clean and contemporary. The outside patio is comfortable and perfect mix of shade and sun.
Excellent food choices with really creative (and delicious) options - sweet savory or spicy. Fresh ingredients prepared with the perfect touches make for delicious dining! Our food came quickly and was perfect and beautiful too. Nice cocktail choices and non-alcohol cocktails too. See pics of my BP waffle below it was a complete work of art! Delicious too! The help yourself coffee bar is a brilliant idea. Never wait for coffee! There were about 8 coffee choices, both caf and decaf. Hubby said coffee was very good, unfortunately the containers ran dry too quickly and I never tried any. Next time!
Right now their hours are 8 am -3pm. Yummy breakfast/brunch all day - and super reasonable specials too - look for chalkboard with specials. They are hoping to make dinner again in the near future.
You have to try this place! So good! We will be returning again (and again) very soon.“
