“Good food and friendly employees“

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

“I wanted to try this spot but now I am worried if I take my wife and kids to this restaurant they could be assaulted in the bathroom by te owner and the staff will stand and smile. Plus multiple reports of failing food safety, yikes.“

“what a wonderful experience. they are so well cared for. beautiful cats that are so friendly and need so much love very clean and the cats have so much to climb on, play with, see and sleep. the hosts were amazing and even let me stay a bit longer. I had the best time. I'm coming bk!!!!!!“

“I attended Juniper & Ivy for a small post-wedding reception. The space was nice and sectioned off from the rest of the restaurant, although it was loud at times because it’s separated by a curtain. It did still feel private, which was great. Although I was the photographer at this wedding, the staff was still super nice and was able to get me a vegetarian meal. They also let the couple bring in their own cakes, which was great! I’d recommend this spot for a smaller reception for sure.“

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

“Simply the best!! Highly recommended!!“

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

“Bryan Z and crew hooked it up for us. Great guidance on the menu and truly remarkable service with a great sense of humor and ability to engage in my banter. Food was awesome with great presentation and quick service. Easy recommend for any celebration dinner or even if you are just looking for a high end dinner.“

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

“A San Diego landmark. Used to frequent this classic dive bar and whiskey emporium up until about 10 years ago when I moved. They’ve spent some money and updated it and it’s all for the better. Ashley helped me and was a pleasure. It’s a true gem. A must hit spot and close to parking and the airport.“

“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“

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

“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.“

“I would recomend to come here for a view, ambience, and meet up. For food, it’s okay but not special considering their price point. Fresh catch halibut might not fresh at all cos it’s a bit fishy and it’s over cooked and it’s pricey for its quality. Lobster was better tho, juicy and fresh. The rest were so so. Calamary was plain and not crunchy on the outside and not hot when served. Clam chowder, well … just ok and too much potato in it. Battered fish and shrimp were slightly better if you eat it with avocado ranch. I loved the place, the pond was beautiful, and friendly staffs.“

“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!“

“Chillin’ by the pool with drinks!“

“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!!“

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

“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.“

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

“Overall excellent steak dinner“

“Great service and a mixture of up scale and simple dishes. The menu is great and the bar has a good selection. Plenty of space in and out. So seating is not an issue. I Had a well cooked dish, but it was salty. My friend ordered the same and it was too. They took care of it and re-ordered. The 2nd day my food was perfect. Rations are big compared to other restaurant in the area. It’s a great experience and has a decent schedule for those staying at the hotel. Will comeback to upgrade this to a 5 stars.“

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

“Just the best place in SD ❤️“

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

“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!“

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

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Overall excellent steak dinner“

“The Intercontinental is pet friendly. 😃“

“Los tragos, comida y el ambiente ✌🏼“

“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.“

“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.“

“**STOP WHAT YOUR DOING***
I cane to this dive bar expecting nothing. It is the epitome of a dive but what I was met with were charismatic locals and bartenders eager to please. I HAVE to single out one bartender in particular, her name is Pisces. I'm a San Diego native and had the best Martini I ever had in SD here!! Yea..im not a drug addict you heard (read) me correctly. I asked for a slightly dirty gin martini and got EXACTLY that. It wasn't swimming in vermouth or overly salty from the olive she got the proportions perfect. I took a sip and thought I was sitting in a speakeasy in SF, and yes I use to live there so I know what I'm talking about. Somebody come and get her...I told her after my fist sip she should not be working here. 10/10!“

“Great appetizer and drink selection. Recommend: Salmon Rillettes, Parmesan/Garlic Truffle Fries, Olives and Almonds, and the Cheese plate. We were there over a holiday weekend (and during World Cup games) - so it seemed like they were short-staffed, but that might be different on 'normal' weekends.“

“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.“

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

“Such a great venue! Loved it!“

“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.“

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

“Great music,vibe, and scenery“

“Located on the 22nd floor of the hotel.

Stopped in for a drink before dinner. It wasn’t busy - but it wasn’t a game night which I image would get quite busy with the views into the stadium!

Bartender was friendly and knowledgeable.
Lots of seat options from high top bar style overlooking the city, to booths to couches.

(We did not get any food here)“
