Above average pool bar food, can order customizations if you order through a server who walks around the pool areas. Food is ordered through a kiosk inside the establishment or from your phone using a code attached to your pool chairs. Food comes out fairly fast, faster than other pool services I've experienced.

Best place in San Diego to bring the kids on a sunny day!
What's not to love about a poolside bar? No expectations about culinary triumphs or lightening quick service. Just want a cold drink to sip on my lounger. And we got that! Spicy margarita was great. Even got a spirit free cocktail that was fabulous. Loved the tortilla chips with salsa and guacamole. Wish I noticed that qr codes on the loungers to order before walking over to the bar, but I survived. Great enhancement to the pool area!

Shallow End Grill offers a casual dining experience near the pool area, with friendly and attentive staff. The food is generally good, served in generous portions, and is affordable. Popular items like the smash burger and chicken strips are well-liked, with the smash burger receiving particular praise. The Guava Cadabra cocktail is also a highlight. However, some reviews mention that the food quality can vary, with issues like stale fries and dry kids' burgers. The menu includes items such as hot dogs, salads, and açaí bowls, but some customers find certain prices high and the portion size for the açaí bowl small.
Service is mostly friendly, though there have been comments about slow service and limited knowledge of menu items, especially regarding beers. Ordering can be done via QR codes or through servers, but the QR codes sometimes do not reflect the restaurant’s hours or availability, leading to confusion. The place is clean and convenient for pool-goers, making it a good spot for a quick bite or drinks while relaxing by the pool or lazy river. Some improvements suggested include better menu descriptions, updated QR codes, and snack options that aren’t overly expensive. Overall, Shallow End Grill is a decent choice for poolside food, with friendly staff and tasty meals, but it could benefit from some menu and service enhancements.
