“e well, she is a managers. They’re very friendly and outspoken and really nice people. 😊“

“This is super convenient. Simply order online, and they bring the order to your car. I don't believe they have any indoor or outdoor seating. Only to go. But for takeaway, it's perfect.
I had the Ceasar Chikin wrap. It was tasty.“

“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 stopped in before the Escondido Renaissance Faire and not only loved the food and cattitude, but also the star treatment we received. We got 2 tacos, elote, and guac and cannot recommend stopping here enough !

“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.“

“Went there for dinner on Saturday night. Have plenty of parking looks like a ghost town, food didn’t take that long but waiter just took the order and drop off the food and disappeared, should have checked the water and after drop off the food do we need anything, or how is the food? Food was better than the service, except the egg roll not sure they buy it or make it need the check on the salt. We both felt little too salty.“

“We love Mikko Sushi - Carlsbad“

“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. :/“

“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.“

“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.“

“Always great food fast service and very friendly“

“First time there food was delicious“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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!“

“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“

“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!“

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

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

“Had my 33rd bday here with 40+ guests and I can honestly say I am more than happy with the experience. The staff was attentive quick and super friendly. The food was great and the place was big enough where we didn’t feel trapped. Kaitlyn was the bar manager at the time and she made us feel welcomed and taken care of. Highly recommend this place for big events“

“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.“

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

“Wonderful food and great service.“

“I have never tried Acai bowl -- until this restaurant!

Let me tell you, I was incredibly surprised by the Superfood Bowl #1. (It has Acai, Coconut Sorbet, Spirulina Chia Pudding, Vanilla Almond Granola, Strawberry, Banana, Blueberry, Mango, Pumpkin Seeds, Raisins, Sunflower Seeds, Coconut, Sunflower Butter, Cinnamon and Cacao Powders). It was so delicious and the combination of all of the ingredients mixed extremely well.

The Detox Juice is something else entirely. Loved it.

I will be back! Thank you.“

“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. 😊“

“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.“

“Awesome food and exelent service 👌“

“Just a perfect place for a family or for a date night.
Cozy ambiance, lighting is perfect.
Pricing is super affordable
Owner even came out and brought us free egg rolls.
My family and I have gone back 4x and we dont intend on stopping.
Customers for life.
You won't regret coming here.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“I haven't been here in a while and was craving a beets, carrots, pineapple.and spinach juice. I ordered a large cup and requested no ice. I got my drink its it was just below half way with actual juice and the rest was foam, you can't drink the foam. I was about to get charged around $12 for a half empty cup of juice. I expressed my concern with the cashier and I asked her if she would charge me for the medium which is about $8. She was hesitant but eventually agreed to it. I feel like they fill the entire cup with ice and only top it off with a small amount of juice which is a rip off/scam.“

“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“

“If you’re looking for a cozy spot in Escondido with a laid-back vibe and great service, Kettle Coffee and Tea is the place to be. The atmosphere is super casual, making it perfect for hanging out or getting some work done. The staff is friendly and quick, which is always a plus. Their sandwiches are delicious! I had a BLT that they customized for me by adding sprouts, spinach, and cheese. I even added extra bacon—because, really, who doesn’t love more bacon? The sandwiches are always on point here. I did have a funny little mix-up during my visit. I went to the counter to check on my regular drip coffee with three shots of espresso (I love my coffee strong!) and the lady said, “Here’s your BLT!” Confused, I replied, “I’m already eating one but it wasn’t the one I had ordered but that’s ok because I was hungry.” Turns out they printed my ticket twice. I offered to pay for the extra sandwich, but they insisted it was on the house. I ended up giving the extra BLT to one of our local homeless residents, which felt good. Overall, Kettle Coffee and Tea is a fantastic spot with yummy food and a welcoming staff. Definitely recommend!“

“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!“

“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.😋👍“

“Daisy and the team of workers are awesome, Great service and very friendly staff. Thank you for providing authentic food. They provide amazing food from their culture and we appreciate the effort this team provides! Thank you so very much Robert & Teresa 🙏🏾“

“Just try it! You won't be disappointed...“

“Server was polite and even directed me to sit closer to the a/c (was a hot day). Food came out super quick. Pricing was fair. I would’ve wanted the eggrolls to be a bit more crispy but that’s just being nitpicky. I got a small #1 and I thought portions were very generous.“
