“I love it here and love the bartender Jess and Bernie and the djs“

“My husband and I had the absolute pleasure to dine at Juniper and Ivy for our 33 year anniversary. Not only did they have special menus for us, but we had a complete and very special experience start to finish.The staff were so welcoming and knowledgeable. We had what I would consider the best seats in the restaurant. We sat up at the kitchen bar, and were treated to an amazing dinner and “show “ The kitchen crew were so impressive and friendly to each other and us. We had such a great experience, that we canceled reservations at another restaurant on the same block for later in the week, so we could come back and try more. Same amazing experience at the next visit. Highly recommend, when we come back to SD we will prioritize another visit. Thank you so much for such a great experience!“

“Simply the best!! Highly recommended!!“

“Had lunch with my sister. Great food and portions. Kyle our waiter was friendly and attentive.“

“We had great time . Cocktail were very good 👍🏼“

“Some of the baddest cats in town show up for this jam!“

“I came in to try the $2.50 steak from a coupon I got in the mail. Love this place. Very nice bathroom for a dive bar. The bartender Shay is 24, gorgeous and friendly. I will be a regular. Kudos to the cook Tino. Food was fantastic and very inexpensive. The steak was good and usually sells for $14. Dailv specials. Come anytime and meet some new friends.“

“We chose to celebrate a milestone birthday here during our trip to San Diego, and it was an excellent decision. The service was impeccable, and our server was friendly and accommodating throughout the evening. They added rose petals and confetti to mark the birthday, which was a thoughtful touch.

For dinner, we ordered the filet with lobster tails and the ahi tuna. Both dishes were well-prepared, flavorful, and satisfying. The mac and cheese is also worth ordering.

I would skip the caviar potato. The portion of caviar did not justify the price.“

“My wife and I went to the restaurant thats inside the Sheraton Tower 3. It’s called Shorelight. Best decision ever! Unfortunately, I didn’t take pictures of the food that we ordered. We had the hot and honey jumbo chicken wings. Unbelievably savory! We also ordered the meatball sub. Huge sub! Fresh mozzarella, marinara sauce, and comes with either a salad, fries, or fresh fruit. Dalton is the bartender who took our order. Great guy and very helpful!!“

“If you’re reading this, it’s because you’re desperately hunting for a place that lives up to (or outlives) what you thought was your old favorite spot. We’ve done the rounds. Everywhere. And nothing touches this scene.

Great drinks. Even better people. The kind of place where you walk in for “just one” and somehow look up three hours later wondering how you got so comfortable, so fast.

Whether it’s your first stop of the night or your last, you’ll spend the entire time grinning like you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be and nowhere you’re supposed to be.

Pro tip: mention the name Lee at the door for free popcorn all night.
(Okay, fine. The popcorn’s already free. But now you’ve got an excuse to say Lee’s name with confidence.)

Get yourselves down here and plug into the energy. We’re officially hooked.

See you at Aero Club.“

“Casual Poolside Dining. Friendly Staff. Amazing Lobster Rolls. Nice Beer & Cocktail Selection. Comfortable Seating. Great Music.“

“Chillin’ by the pool with drinks!“

“We are from “the beef capital” of Australia and discovered The Lion’s Share during SDCC 2023. My husband has very high standards when it comes to meat (his family owned a cattle property) and he could not fault a single dish. We tried camel sausage for the first time and were amazed at the flavor. Every dish was delicious, and make sure you try the brussel sprouts. A restaurant that specializes under exotic meats that can make brussel sprouts that delicious is doing something right! It is our must visit restaurant when we visit San Diego“

“Great atmosphere with nice view of the bay for the sunset. Good selection of quality spirits and beers. About six or seven options for food which are appetizers. However, if you want food from downstairs, then you would have to go to the restaurant as they do not cater.“

“Every time I have dined here, the atmosphere is warm and inviting but most important, the food is always amazing. The flavors and quality in every dish has not disappointed.“

“One of my favorite bars in the city! Great cigars, deals on drinks, and a vibe that’s always chill but never boring. Staff makes you feel at home every time. I even love bringing in my board games here it’s the perfect spot to relax, hang with friends, and just enjoy the night. Easily one of my favorite bars in the city.“

“Anthony's is our family's choice whenever we want a special dinner, especially since there's so many wonderful seafood dishes on the menu. All of the staff was very friendly and helpful on our recent visit, and the food was delicious. We enjoyed salmon pasta and steak, and lovely burnt creme for dessert. Having a view of the roaring Spokane Falls just added to the ambiance.“

“The Whiskey house isn’t just for whiskey! We enjoyed a great brunch outdoors. The cinnamon pancakes are to die for! Great service from Jackie!“

“Go the Duck Tacos and checkout the voodoo/ black magic background“

“Loved the space, the sound, and the people's energy. I look forward to djing and performing there again.“

“Overall excellent steak dinner“

“Just the best place in SD ❤️“

“Cody, Bellman a fine hospitable team member. Inflated 🚲 tire. 🎩 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“angel was a gem, he went home before we can give him his tip. Give this man a raise! Period, king period! Thank you so much our engagement and sister in laws bday was 10 more times enjoyable because of you!“

“The first time you go your a stranger but it didn't feel uncomfortable because you could tell that you were in a friendly atmosphere. Good singers, delicious drinks, good company, excellent bartenders and an attentive KJ! Karaoke is on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday 9:00 pm until closing. Pool tables and darts. If you don’t sing come by anyway … you’ll be glad you did. Hey you’ll probably see me there!“

“Overall excellent steak dinner“

“Went there to see my good friend DJ Yodah spin, and enjoyed the views and rooftop views for photo opps/selfies…“

“Walking back into SRO after years away felt like slipping into a memory you did not realize you missed — a soft, familiar glow, the buzz of conversation, and the kind of warmth that settles into your shoulders the second you walk in. This isn’t just a neighborhood bar; it’s one of those rare community anchors where the energy feels lived-in, loved, and completely unfiltered.

SRO has long been a haven for San Diego’s transgender and LGBTQ+ community. It’s the definition of a classic dive: no pretense, no attitude — just real people, real stories, and that easy, comfortable vibe you cannot manufacture. The pool league keeps things lively, the bartenders keep things relaxed, and the regulars create a sense of belonging that feels almost immediate.

After working in another gay bar in this neighborhood for over two decades, returning to SRO was surreal in the best way — I recognized faces I hadn’t seen in years. That kind of continuity is rare. It tells you everything about the heart of this place: people come back, and they stay connected.

If you’re looking for velvet ropes or curated aesthetics, this isn’t that bar. But if you want authenticity, comfort, laughter, and a place with a heartbeat — SRO is the kind of spot that becomes home without you even trying.

Highly recommended, especially if you appreciate a bar with real soul.“

“Just go to the Top! The view is amazing!“

“We were in downtown San Diego yesterday for a bachelor party with 19 of us, and the night completely changed thanks to the guy outside. A tall, tattooed gentleman approached us, super friendly, confident, and genuinely engaging. We were actually headed to another spot, but he had such good energy and made us feel so welcome that he convinced us to give his bar a shot. Best decision we made all night.

He personally hooked us up with champagne bottles and great drink deals (we ended up spending a lot of money there), you could tell he was single handedly packing the place with his hustle. I’d been to this bar a few months back and it was pretty dead, but last night it was buzzing, clearly because of him.

Huge shoutout to him for making the night unforgettable, and props to the bearded bartender and the blonde bartender as well, they kept the vibe going strong. Thanks for an epic night!

We will also be back to try his favourite dishes there, aguachile and wagyu burger.“

“Great place to hang out and watch a show. The staff were helpful, friendly, and professional. We didn't have any food but the drinks were good and reasonably priced

Parking: Plenty of parking but the best bet was the valet for us, reasonable too

Wheelchair accessibility: Very easy for wheelchair to get around“

“A neighborhood gem! Owners are wonderful people and have created a place with a lot of heart as well as being one of the best bottle houses in San Diego.“

“Stayed for a week at Hotel Republic. Trade restaurant is right next to the reception area inside the hotel. The hotel charges a daily 25$ fee and one of the perks from that is you can eat either at this restaurant or Topside on the floor above, with 25$ daily refund, even the morning you checkout - just need to charge it to your room. I was always having proper meals outside, but showed up 4 times during my stay here just to get something extra. Really liked their soup of the day - it was creamy potato the night I went. The steak fries plate is very oily and a huge size too. The breakfast burrito was okay. The hummus was really good. The staff are all very friendly.“

“Uptown Tavern never disappoints. Great food and excellent drinks. Cheers!!“

“Having walked to the end of the promenade we called in to the Hilton and asked at the restaurant where the best place to order a drink would be. We were directed to the Pool Bar – a delightful area outside with comfortable seating. We ordered iced tea and when we asked for the bill we were told that there was no charge. Most impressive.“

“A little pricey but you get what you pay for. Very nice cocktails in a fun environment.“

“Good food and fast service. Fair prices and expert help.“

“Jesse, was amazing ! She had great customer service! We had let her know it was our first time there and she took care of us. I have some food allergies, and she made sure to write it down thoroughly and suggest different options for myself. Will definitely be coming back!“

“Food was unbelievable! Customer service was great. They brought us complimentary Michelada's as we had never had them before. Had to take a cab home after walking there because we had so much food! Will definitely return next time we are in San Diego!“

“Great spot, with Great employee's, I rented the Entire Club for a 50th Birthday Party that included food and drink. I highly recommend this Place.“

“The Shamrock drink I had for St. Patrick's day was DELICIOUS!!!! My kids don't eat meat off the bone; however, my son devoured the bone-in wings. The XL pretzel was my favorite. Shrimp cocktail was also good, as well as the Carne Asade taco.“

“We had a wonderful time at Cays this weekend. I was joined by two sisters and my daughter. We sat al fresco. We ordered the following: 1 bottle of Pellegrino, 2 teas, 2 martinis, a Tito Mule, an order of brocolini, 2 patatas bravas, 1 pan con tomate, 1 burger, and Spanish cheese and meats. Total without the tip was 151.93. Yes, a bit steep, but you are in Coronado and the views are very nice. Our waiter was efficient and he was friendly. I have had many meals at this hotel (I am a local) and I have to say most of the time I have been very satisfied. I would highly recommend Cays. I wish to stay in this hotel one day...“

“Let's go walking Yes ok.“

“Excellent drinks.. beautiful view…come on down!!“

“Absolutely incredible experience at Altitude Sky Lounge! The ambiance is unmatched, with stunning views that make the entire evening feel special. The staff were attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. The food and drinks were top-notch—beautifully presented and full of flavor. Whether you're going for a relaxing night out or a celebration, this place delivers on every level. Highly recommended!“

“Such a great venue! Loved it!“

“Great music,vibe, and scenery“
