My dad’s favorite meal is breakfast and do they for sure have endless choices of good brunch food.

My favorite? The seasonal dishes. Like the pecan pumpkin pancakes. So good I still drool thinking about it.

“We have lived in RSD for 10 years and love all the options near us. One of our favorite go to restaurants is Pick Up Stix mainly this location in RSD. The food is delicious and the service is always given with a smile and genuine, personal care for quality and a desire to give the customer what they expect when their order is made. My family and I always enjoy walking in and being greeted with sincerity. This RSD location has always been consistent in taste and quality. Thank you!“

“Great tasting food wonderful service“

“Me encanto el lugar que es muy familiar♥️“

“I have eaten Vietnamese cuisine throughout California, and Grandpa Tao ranks among the best. In addition to the amazing tastes, the casual restaurant is friendly and comfortable. Ingredients are fresh, the environment clean and relaxing. I particularly recommend the Pho, the Rice Vermicelli (try it!) and the Shaking beef. You'll like it.“

“Never had a bad experience here. The staff are always super friendly and make you feel welcomed and take good care of us. This is our favorite no-frills, reliably good food, hole in the wall spot. Our son loves the food here too! Highly recommend“

“This place gets pretty busy on weekends! The parking lot may be full but you can still park along the street. It’s pretty large so there’s usually seats. I love the borracho fries, so good! Also the pulled pork and the cheeseburger are tasty too. The service is good as well. My one complaint is they run out of their popular items by 2pm, tri tip and hot links get sold out really fast. I know they can only bbq so much but maybe add some more of the popular meats?“

“Been going here for years !!!“

“great local sports bar atmosphere with variety of food and plenty of options for tv watching and drink options“

“I like the bean burritos.“

“Ok the broth here was amazing but I was kind of forced into the filet mignon pho when I asked for the rare steak. I even ordered in Vietnamese. She insisted I have the filet.
It was good. And the broth is one of the better in San Diego. Not sure I'll go back. I want what I want.“

“Delicious breakfasts 😋 and good service“

“We've been patrons for 61 years; spent our 60th. Anniversary dinner here along with all our family mile stones: birthdays, wedding rehearsal dinners, etc. We love the staff, lovely people and family and the food is always great. We love the atmosphere; calm and private booths... they are family as far as we are concerned...“

“Been going there over 30 years.. Forget those chain pizza places, seriously, this place always feels like home when I go. That guy has heart, and his dough and sauce are on point! Keep it up Sam! Much Love.. I can't believe no one else has posted here till now.“

“The Food is prepared fresh and served hot with excellent value.
The husband and wife team are spectacular working harmoniously together. Always graciously treating their customers with individual kindness and catering to their needs.
We have become dedicated life long clients.“

“I’d come back again. Great customer service..“

“I don’t even drink beer and this is my happy place“

“It's so nice to be able to order for delivery without having to use Door Dash or Uber Eats or some other delivery service. I'm a truck driver, so I don't have an address to deliver to. But my pizza was delivered right to the truck. This pizza is fantastic. The crust has the perfect crisp. Plenty of cheese, and they put the perfect amount of each topping that they don't overpower each other. The price is very reasonable. I'll order here anytime I'm in the area.“

“I always like great ribs and like coming here but unfortunately today's service wasn't very satisfying no side orders drinks no eating inside I can't give a great review until you fix this easues 🤔“

“If you're looking for an authentic, Philly steak sandwich, look no further
These guys make each sandwich to order and everything is fresh and delicious. Don't get me started about the fries. You could order them plain or I understand you can order them Philly style. Going to have to try that next time. Let me know what you think of this. Fabulous local spot“

“Super delicioso 😋 super recomendado“

“Wow! Fresh made chips, all food DELICIOUS! The spicy cucumber margarita, don't miss this succulent beverage. Service was fast, prices were good. Bathrooms run down but reasonable. This is a big place so lots of cars in lot at weekend dinner and we still got right in. Yum!“

“Delicious!!! Line was long but well worth the wait. First time but definitely not my last. Great Customer service as well.“

“very good food, blue tacos for the win“

“Love, love, love El Cajon Bistro! It really is the best breakfast in town. Almost as if the North Park brunch scene found its way to east county, and I'm so happy it did. I always get a Benedict, the poached eggs are always perfect and the hollandaise is satisfying. The salsa that came with the breakfast potatoes was SO GOOD. I will be dreaming about it until I can have it again. My grandma and I always come here whenever I am in town. Highly recommend.“

“I have been coming to this location for over a year now and I just had to take the time to write how AMAZING the food and service is at this location. I am always greeted when I come in and the food is consistentantly made with the same amazing taste, portions, hot, and fast service. If your looking for some good Mexican food to eat, this place is a must.“

“I ordered 5 Ground Beef Kabob Skewers , 5 Chicken Tikka Skewers, 1 chicken cream chop, 1 Shawarma Wrap, Rice, Hummus & Salad. Served with Pita Bread, Grilled So when I got home I find out there is only 4 Ground Beef kabob and 4 chicken Tikka And that was so embarrassing for me because I invited 5 people for lunch That was really bad experience“

“Thank u so much mike at Monavala Pizza for sponsoring Erin in the positive direction pageant she won jr miss San Diego central as well as miss congeniality with your generous support!!! She’s so excited to start giving back to the community“

“I love the quality of food at this place and the deal they have for lunch it’s $13.49 for a Personal pizza with one topping salad bar and self serve soda. But they also carry my favorite Happy Dad seltzer so that’s why I stopped in. I didn’t see it but asked for it. They have two flavors, grape and fruit punch my favorites. The salad bar is great. It has pepperoni and croutons tomatoes black olives, cheese, raisins, carrots, bacon, bits all the dressings and different pepperchinis and jalapeños and everything so you can get pretty good stuff on the salad bar. The pizza came out pretty quick and cut into 6 slices almost like a thin crust but great has a bit of a kick to it. Really good customer service very friendly, fast and clean place. Highly recommend this establishment!“

“Love the food, and the workers there are super sweet. ( pun not intended )“

“AMAZING FOOD!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!! SO DELICIOUS!!!!“

“Great food. My favorites are the fried zucchini and the chocolate peanut butter shakes. My complaint: I’d love a half order of fried zucchini or order by the piece! A full order is just way too much and half of it or more just gets thrown away.“

“4/4/2022 My first time getting a pizza from here, and it was amazing! I look forward to trying other items as well.“

“Been coming here regularly for years. Food is delicious. Portions are great. Service fantastic (Shout out to Bryan for his infectious positivity!). The walk-up window, late close times, and outdoor seating area makes for a convenient dinner and a great incentive to go for a walk. I'd recommend a breakfast burrito!

Had a single mistake in my 20+ orders that I didn't notice until I got home (It was still a VERY delicious mistake!) and unbeknownst to me they recognized the mistake themselves and set aside a note to comp that item for us the next time we arrived, which wasn't necessary but absolutely appreciated.

Thanks for all that y'all do!“
