I had the Ceasar Chikin wrap. It was tasty.“

“Best Gelato I have ever had!“

“Excellent tacos, and a plentiful number of vegetarian options, some of the most flavorful tacos I've had. Each taco is about 5$ and 2-3 is typically enough for one person.

Ample indoor and outdoor seating and quick service, very glad I found this place, and can't wait to go back.“

“I have been enjoying a quarter pounder for ages with a HI C orange, still delicious and fries were amazing. Soo good

Kid-friendliness: I don't have kids but they do have games inside for kids

Parking: They have a lot of parking for pickup, which to me it seems they have too many but since I don't know if they really get many at a time. I guess I shouldn't say. The reason I mention is because it doesn't leave much for the rest of us

Wheelchair accessibility: Pretty sure they have ramp“

“I recently had a fundraising event and Sunny Side was such a great choice for catering. After I sent an email, I got a call back and we walked through the order and right sized it. The guests really enjoyed an artichoke quiche, strawberry chicken salad and three types of mini cookies. Everyone raved about the food. It was all packaged up to be easy to serve. I would highly recommend working with Sunny Side on your next catering need!“

“We love Mikko Sushi - Carlsbad“

“I used to frequent this place often when I worked in North County.

Their food was always on point and delicious. From their soups to sandwiches.

The place was clean and the staff were always friendly and welcoming.

It'a nice to see they are still in business and going strong.

If you are in the area be sure to drop by and give them a try.“

“We came in after a hard day loading and wanted A great meal they went ahead and made our food even thought it was closing time, they could have told us they were closed! What awesome customer service, beautiful and very clean restaurant! Delicious food! Thank You for your hospitality! I wish I could give you 100 star rating!“

“Recently found this little place, and now have developed an addiction to their Panang curry. Best I’ve ever had. And the lunch specials are wonderful, both the soup and salad are good, as are the appetizers in them. Nice booth seating, a calm place with lovely people working there.“

“I went to O’Brien’s for the first time today. My Mother-in-law highly recommended the restaurant so I could meet my friend. The food was delicious. The service was great- Thank You Sarah and team. I am so excited to try the different types of breads and pastries. O’ Brien’s is known for their delicious breads, especially sour dough. If you are in the San Diego area, differently check out this restaurant! Sit down and relax with your favorite cup of coffee or tea with a sweet pastry, great bread or something from their delicious menu.“

“Seniors portion is just right. Nice servers & good food .“

“First time eating here. We stopped by the area to supercharging station and was getting hungry. Found this restaurant and did not regret. Generous portion, great food and friendly service. There was a wait because it was super busy but worth it. Will be coming back again“

“Soy. Un cliente. Q. Frecuenta. Mucho. Este. Restaurante selos. Recomiendo muy. Deliciosa su comida Grasias. Por todo.“

“Chicken Plus will always have a special place in my heart. I still remember when my dad used to take me here back in elementary school — it was our go-to spot for a delicious meal and some quality time together. Every visit was a treat, and even now, all these years later, I keep coming back.

The food is just as incredible as I remember — always fresh, flavorful, and made with so much care. But what really sets Chicken Plus apart is the heart behind it. Syd, the owner, is truly one of a kind. Every time I walk through the doors, I look forward to seeing him. He greets everyone like family and makes you feel genuinely welcome. It’s rare to find a place where the food and the people are equally amazing, but Chicken Plus nails it every time.

If you haven’t been here yet, you’re seriously missing out. Thank you, Syd, for all the memories and for continuing to make Chicken Plus the special place it is!“

“Everything I've ordered from Kinaly has been outstanding in the flavor department. I've been patronizing them for, oh, maybe 4 years now? Honestly I've only tried a fraction of the menu - I've had maybe 1/3 of the starters and have mostly eaten the noodle dishes. The pad thai and pad see ewe are excellent! And they come out of the kitchen piping hot - hot enough, in fact, to stay warm for the 30 minutes it takes to get back to Valley Center.

Edit: I thought portions had gotten smaller, but I think it was just a fluke a couple of times in a row. Since those purchases, the portions are back to what they've always been! Enjoy a hearty meal.

The service is always friendly and fast! I've always gotten take-out so I can't really speak to the atmosphere, but the restaurant is clean and pretty chill, so I have no complaints.

Bottom line - if you're looking for some solid, reasonably-priced thai food, you can't go wrong with Kinaly. Do it, you won't be disappointed!“

“Known for their breakfast and burgers; I enjoy the zucchini, always taste so fresh. Love the breading on the zucchini which is not too heavy or thick. The chicken and avocado sandwich on sourdough was delicious. Great home style feel while offering a faster food option. Give them a try.“

“Always great food fast service and very friendly“

“We only had burritos, but holy cow! This is a gem. We live in L.A., and I honestly might drive down here for lunch again. This is the kind of business that should be patronized during these times, so that it survives to provide REALLY GOOD FOOD.“

“I bought 1 gyro, $7.99, a combination plate, $14.99, which comes packed with rice, salad, gyro meat and a kabob, and 1 pita bread, $.99. The price was more than fair for the amount of food we got. The food tasted fantastic, besides the fact that it fed my wife, and four daughters. They all raved about it. If you appreciate Mediterranean food, this place is great!“

“Food comes with a huge plate!!Amazing!
My husband and I had a dinner date tonight. It's been a long time since we came to Olive Garden. I tried the new shrimp and steak fettuccine, it was so good! and my husband had the classic lasagna.
And, I had the Italian Rum cocktail, perfect! Well, it's my first time to have this drink. Highly recommended to try. And of course, my husband had the Apple sour Sangria.
Jose, our server was very attentive and with good attitude.

Good job Olive Garden for the good food and service.😋👍“

“Best chicken soup!! All the daily specials are great! Flavorful food at a reasonable price“

“LOVE the order ahead pick up drive through! Food is delish and service is on point! Thank you Mirin you never disappoint“

“We celebrated a birthday dinner at Chin's and had a wonderful experience. The wait staff was very attentive, patient, and adaptable to our young family needs. The owner stopped by a spent time with us. The food was exceptional, too, as has always been the case here. The menu has a high range of choices. We highly recommend this place.“

“Great breakfast place in Escondido. Love the setting of the restaurant, which makes you feel at home and outside patio is great also, except some flies..lol. The breakfast menu had so many great items. The lobster omelet i had was one of the best omelets I have eaten in a while. The staff are very friendly and that seems to make all the customers friendly also. Thank you. I really enjoyed your food and your service. Will definitely be back whenever I have a chance to visit Escondido, and next time, I will try your lunch menus.“

“our server Annie was so nice and the ranch is homemade and delicious. I got my free birthday burger one of the finest burgers on the menu. and I highly recommended the Rancho parkway Red Robin. food was delicious everything was good temperature freshly served quick and made to order delicious. 😊“

“Awesome food and exelent service 👌“

“Absolutely Amazing! I've been a 3GO customer for many years and they have always had the best Sushi in Escondido and great prices too! During the pandemic I started ordering their food for delivery and they do an excellent job of packing too! 10/10 don't bother going anywhere else.“

“Great smoothie bowls! I love how customizable and loaded they are. Definitely add mango and papaya if you're a fan since I rarely see smoothie bowl places offer those as toppings.

Minus one star because both the acai and pitaya bases had a little iciness to them, which I didn't love. Also, the vegan options definitely could've been more clearly marked. It might be easier to just mark which options are not vegan, actually, since I think almost everything on the smoothie bowl menu is vegan anyway?“

“First time trying this fantastic pizza place. I was very excited to try the chicken Tikka pizza it was very tasty and flavorful. I was greeted right away, It's family owned. Also their mango lassi was very delicious. I would definitely recommend this place“

“This place is absolutely phenomenal!! Trent, the manager, makes this the place you want to be for any evening or weekend. To start, everyone who works there treats you like family! They are so kind and welcoming and treat you like a regular the second you walk in. On top of that they have 20+ TVs playing anything you want! If you are looking for a great sports bar and restaurant, Tony Pepperonis has you covered. They have super good food whether it be takeout, game day, or a huge party, and even better, the best beer selection in all of north county. This place gets 5 stars in my book.“

“Wonderful food and great service.“

“Just visited and was immediately impressed with quality beverage selections and food offerings. The owner actually touched base and was very friendly. I will be back to try the food. Sorry that the market/ pizza place next door gets confused with this place. The 5 star reviews of the other place actually had photos of the interior I just saw in person...If you are any where in the area you should definitely give them a try.“

“Trying to contact the owner. Owner, when will you be at the restaurant?? Thank you. Sadly the on floor manager, Nick, now claiming to be the owner in today's conversation, will not honor a gift card our friend bought for us a few months back. Nick is very agressive, harsh, and sadly not a good face for this amazing restaurant. Our family has been eatting here for 3 generations ever since they opened. We have watched several sets of family member take over operating this family business, and have loved ever member prior. However, Nick is an unfortunate one. With a gift card receipt stating Nick's name, he denies selling a gift card to anyone but one person. Nick has unfortunately ruined our favorite family restaurant. If the real owner ever reads this, I hope we can work something out. My recommendation, eat somewhere else. Its not worth the gruff service and the potential to get screwed. :/“

“What a great place! When you first walk in you see the bar area, around the corner are dining tables which are great for a nice dinner. The food was absolutely amazing, I highly recommend the French onion soup and sea bass entree. The servers were attentive and kind, the ambience and music was relaxed yet had good energy. It wasn't happening when we went but sometimes they have live music too. Please check this place out!“

“wow!! great food, great experience! order inside and then go outside and watch them cook it fresh!!!“

“Awesome spot for good food. The portions are big, the food is tasty, and the people are really friendly. What more could you want from a great local spot for quick, delicious food. This is a pic of the lamb gyro. It’s massive. Fork for reference. The meat was cooked and cut perfectly, veggies are fresh, everything was fantastic.“

“The food here is absolutely amazing—they’ve got a little bit of everything, and everything I’ve tried has been delicious. I’ve been working in Escondido for the past couple of weeks, and I have to give a big shoutout to Maria. She’s been incredibly welcoming, helpful, and always provides outstanding service. Her professionalism and great attitude have truly made my time here even better. Highly recommend!“

“We enjoyed the service and the atmosphere so much! It felt like being home, relaxed, and that made the food taste much better. You can tell that the owner is passionate about family-style service. I’m grateful we have this pho restaurant.“

“We stumbled upon the Swiss Grill at the Vista Farmer's Market and it was just amazing! I ordered a whole chicken, it looked so good just rolling in front of my eyes. The meat is very tender and juicy, the skin is of a crispy golden brown - yum! I am actually from Switzerland myself and let me tell you this food made me feel right at home. The potatoes were both soft and crispy with the perfect amount of seasoning. I also had a pleasant chat with the owner Daniel who lived a few miles from my hometown - so we ended up talking about stories from back home!“

“George Burgers has the best onion rings ever! And, of course, their burgers are good, too. You can't stay in business this long without great food and service. We brought our cocker spaniel as dogs are welcome on the nice shady patio. Johnathon, our server was just delightful. As we were new, he was ever so helpful. He and the food assure we'll be back soon.“

“Love the food and atmosphere here. Hard to get great service these days, but Mike's BBQ never disappoints. Thank you!“
