Draft Republic - Carlsbad Reviews
Great food, staff and atmosphere.
We went at 9pm as it's one of the few restaurants still open. Drinks are overpriced($10 for well, $13 for call) service though friendly, doesn't do what's best for the customer( kid thought meal came with a side so he ordered fries, instead we were charged for another 8.95 the cost of a kids meal.) Pizza was undercooked then they brought it back out burnt. We refused to pay for it, tried to offer free dessert instead. Kids pizza was brought out without the pepperoni. Way overpriced.......read full review
Good place to have dinner and good drink with my family.
