“Had a great time having a family outing watching sports and eating great food! The service was great. Jenny served us and was so bubbly and friendly and very helpful with offering recommendations on food and drinks to order. Definitely recommend if you want to get out have some food or drinks with the family while being able to watch sports. They also had a mini arcade area and games for the kids to stay busy.“

“Great atmosphere and fun for everyone, especially those who don't golf. Our party of 7 had a blast with all of the different games available and it got even more fun after a few delicious cocktails ;) Would recommend to anyone looking for something fun that's casual and has great food and drinks.“

“Bar was loud but there was so much going on. Music selection was great, just a little too loud. They have a bunch of events happening here (we came during a beer pong tournament), the arcade is awesome, had a good selection of games and they were super reasonably priced. Would go again!“

“After a long day of playing soccer, the entire team visited Notorious Burgers. We loved the appetizers, especially the brussels sprouts and fried pickles. They offered a variety of food for everyone’s liking. My cheeseburger was the black and blue, and it was heavenly. Next time we’re in Carlsbad, will be sure to eat there again Great spot!!!“

“Dog friendly outdoor great service good beer nice atmosphere“

“A highly recommended spot for watching sports, great food and relaxing atmosphere. The service is the best, friendly and knowledgeable of the food and beverages.
The pizza was incredible. Burgers- delicious and well prepared.
The comfortable sitting is like being in your living room. Great music on all the time.
VERY highly recommended for an adult evening of watching sports (60 TV's) and enjoying an adult beverages and having some really good food. The parking is a bit tight but worth it.“

“encinitas ranch golf course driving range“

“Our server, Eve, was phenomenal! We dined there tonight with a party of 10 which included 4 kids. Eve was on top of everything! The food was yummy and came out fast. I highly recommend Nautilus based on variety of food options, yummy drinks and excellent service!“

“This place was a surprise. I went to watch the UFC fight since it was the closest place to my house showing the fight. This place may become one of my new weekend night without the kids hangout spots. Approximately 7 pool tables, good beers on tap, and a patio in the back to smoke and vape. Atmosphere was good, easy to make a few acquaintances while watching the fight and no issues. Check it out if you're in the area“

“Very friendly environment, bartenders are very nice and inviting, fun karaoke/pool/darts. Great time every time i go!“

“If you like Chicago pizza this is the place for you in Encinitas. Their thin crust pizza is delicious no matter what toppings you put on it. You can get different thickness of dough up to thick crust. They use quality ingredients that are consistent. It is a neighborhood bar/pizza parlor. You will find regulars there which is fun. They have a wide variety of choices from pizza to great appetizers to dessert. The service is consistent and the restaurant is always clean. I've been going there since it opened. When I want pizza it's my go to place.“

“Good food and music. Friendly ambiance. Very enjoyable experience!“

“Its a locals dive bar.. what you'd expect cheap drinks and plenty of good people to talk with. This is what I look for in bars. If you want bougie overpriced drinks and spotless atmosphere go somewhere else and save this gem for locals. Good place to enjoy a few after work and watch sports and people play pool. Bartender was quick and handled a packed place by himself. Will definitely come back.“

“me encanta la atención al cliente y la convivencia“

“Stopped by the old Applebee’s on Balboa Avenue semi-recently after years of not going to a single location. It’s not that I don’t like Applebee’s, it’s just that it’s hard to choose over some of the other better butger spots in San Diego that offer slightly elevated options at similar price points.

Im giving the Balboa Applebee’s 4/5 stars on food, 5/5 on service, and 3/5 on atmosphere—for a total of 4 flat. Of course, this is subjective, but atmospherically it’s just not really my cup of tea—big TVs, hyper-bright lights, families with small children making noise (no hate to kids at all). Service is really good, though. The staff are welcoming, friendly, and attentive (without being overbearing).

I say at the bar and ordered the Bacon Ranch Grilled Chicken Sandwich. It was a good size, with a decent amount of bacon, and a large portion of fries. It was a legitimately good sandwich—not mind-boggling, but definitely pretty tasty, pretty fresh, and cooked correctly (both chicken and bacon).

For the price, it’s slightly above average I’d say, and ranks similarly to decent diner chicken sandwiches. Atmosphere isn’t my thing. Might work for people who love sports. Service is good.“

“enjoyed my visit... staff was friendly and nice atmosphere 👌“
