“Good people and great location. The owner is great . Definitely recommended“

“The first time I visited the taco shop. I ordered the ground beef roll tacos, it was an option for small ones or big ones I order big ones and they were delicious. Taco shops rarely sell a ground beef roll taco. The service was pleasent and the food is a good price. I will be returning soon.“

“Great food and drinks! The service is superb!“

“They don't have any top shelf liquor but I expected that. They do have a good card system for games and the bartenders were very pleasant. As they closed there seemed to be more people chatting out front then were inside. All around it was fun even for the snobby crowd ... 💋“

“There are plenty of tables to choose from, and the venue is clean, spacious, and very nice inside. They charge by the hour, and the rates are fair for what you get. My sister and I had a great time here and really enjoyed the atmosphere. We would definitely come back again.“

“We had our pregame, Puerto Rican Heritage Padre, celebration there yesterday and the staff and food were AMAZING!!!!!! 🇵🇷🇵🇷🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🇵🇷🇵🇷“

“Food was delicious and the whole family loved it.
I got stopped at the door for a weird reason but because of it I would give 10 stars. I was asked what I was getting and doing because the gentleman noticed I had my kids with me, he said he couldn't allow me to go to the bar but I could order food. Way to look out for those kids I respect the man and the business just for looking out for the kids good job!!“

“Stopped by for a quick bite and the place did not disappoint. Quick service as we had a time crunch...fresh salads, apps and kids portions are generous.

You can be in and out quick but the place does pack up on the weekends so plan ahead.“

“Came in on a whim around midnight with a few friends after closing my bar. The bartender was very sweet and made us some pretty decent shots. The draft beers were ice cold and priced well. Quite a few people for a week night. We shot some pool and stayed till last call. I hadn’t been there in over 15 years. Completely forgot what a great dive bar it was and has always been. I’ll definitely be coming back more often.“

“My go to bar, especially when I fly back in to visit. I always stop by and hang out. Simply the best! Love you all!!“

“I came here after work on a Friday night. It just so happen to be a Padres vs Dodgers game and this place was packed! I mean, for your regular local bar... it was poppin'!
Everyone had a good, positive vibe watching the game regardless of the rivalry (there was a mix of both fans here) they didn't have the jukebox playing, so it was strictly game time vibes!
But as soon as the game ended, Jaqui, the bartender at the time, turned the music UP!
Jaqui was the ONLY bartender serving the patrons all night! She not only was running around like crazy but she kept such an inviting, friendly smile the whole time! She made sure to keep a conversation going with her guests as well.
While I was here, I didn't hear of any complaints about the service. Jaqui made sure my refreshments 😜 were always full as well. She's by far the best I've seen yet!!
Overall, it's a cool bar to chill at during baseball games or even to have a night cap after work! & with Jaqui as your bartender, you'll leave here on a positive note and I bet you'll be back 😋😉“

“Buenos momentos en el bar…..“

“Just after Christmas, we were in town for the new year and the Seahawks had a football game against the 49ers so we went to our place bar and Grill and had a fantastic time. The people were great. The food was great. The owners were great. I highly highly recommend we have been to numerous Seahawks bars Across the United States and by far this one was the best.“

“awesome happy hour and bartenders“

“My husband was in a business dinner and they walked some of gaslamp afterwards. After they parted ways, he needed to use the bathroom so he ran in the closest restaurant. They said he couldn't use it unless he was a customer. I totally get that but they were packed out so it made no sense.... Either way, he bought a chicken quesadilla to go. He brought it back to the room for me and our sons to have. It tasted good...until my youngest son spit out a piece of plastic he found inside the quesadilla. My Husband called about it the next day bc they were then closed. Their response was "oops sorry" like wth?! They then said "bring it back along with the plastic." No mention of a refund or investigation of how it happened. And by that point, room service had come and took the box of the rest of the food plus no one wanted to fight downtown traffic and pay to park to have them possibly offer us another quesadilla . 🙄 Again the food we did eat, minus the plastic, was good but the service wasn't.“

“Great food fast and yummy.“

“good food and beer on tap“

“My family and I were in search of a great burger and shake to honor my Dad on the anniversary of his passing. We considered In-N-Out, but are SO glad we changed our mind!
Everything was delicious!

My son actually didn’t “love” the crispness of the single patty, and wouldn’t eat it. As we walked out, the owner came after us with a delicious hot dog dressed in ketchup just for him ❣ incredible food and service. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Good food, good service, fair prices!“

“Valentin was our waiter and he is excellent, the best!“

“The salad, burger and pork tacos were great! My youngest son and I love to go their. Nice tropical atmosphere too. Friendly staff“

“Excellent sports bar to hang out with friends. The place was very clean and well maintained. The service was outstanding, and the waitresses were friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome throughout our visit.

One of the best features is the large number of TVs, making it easy to watch multiple sporting events at the same time. They also have a great selection of beers, cocktails, and other drinks.

The food isn’t meant to be gourmet, but it’s tasty, the portions are very generous, and it’s definitely a great value for the price.

My friends and I had a great time watching a soccer match, and the atmosphere was fun and energetic. I highly recommend it for groups of friends or anyone looking to enjoy sports with good food and drinks.

The only downside is that parking can be a little difficult in the afternoon since the parking lot is shared with several nearby businesses.

I highly recommend this place for adults, but I wouldn’t recommend it for children or minors, as it’s clearly geared toward an adult crowd.“

“Great food and beer 🍺 kid friendly ❤️“

“Always an excellent experience“

“Your normal local dive bar.Crowd can be a little so so, however tends to not ever be packed.There was always some sort of celebration that would have a potluck, they were always friendly enough to ask you if you wanted to join.We would go for our quite date nights. Round 8 ish to 10 maybe 11. Pool, cheap drinks, interesting people watching and comfy clothes never stood out.“

“SPARKLING CLEAN. Food and beverage excellent. Half price on all spirits, wine, champagne, beer and APPETIZERS ALL DAY. There is a bar PLUS many tables, wide screens. Very nicely appointed.“

“I like the bean burritos.“

“Food was unbelievable! Customer service was great. They brought us complimentary Michelada's as we had never had them before. Had to take a cab home after walking there because we had so much food! Will definitely return next time we are in San Diego!“

“Came in for a late dinner And melisa gave us 5 star customer service Food was hot and he kind hearted self kept checking in making sure everything was good just a friendly vibe and made our evening great everything on point Melisa evening shift Aug 20th 2026.“

“My wife and I stumbled upon Majorette while exploring Rolando Village. It looks like a dive bar, but it has a really good beer selection and great food. I'm a fried chicken sandwich snob, and it doesn't get much better than their fried chicken thigh sando. The only real option for my wife (who is vegetarian) was the grilled cheese sandwich. While it was delicious, it would be nice if they would at least offer an Impossible burger substitute for their smash burger. I also wish they were open for lunch instead of just dinner, but such is life. We will definitely be back soon!“

“I went to the Full Circle Saloon and they played this degrading song that said “A lap dance is better when the stripper is crying. Well I find it quite a thrill when she grinds me against her will.” More lyrics from this song say ” I told Bambi I wanted to skin her….. and wear her face like a mask. I have to admit it was even more of a turn-on when I found out she was doin’ me to buy baby formula.” This is a a song appropriate for serial killers and John’s who rape sex workers who are forced by their situation to work against their will. The bartender was angry and irritated with me when I asked to him to please turn it off. Two other female workers were unconcerned. The Female owner Michelle Bailey said she will not be a song N*** and did not offer to do anything about it. Oh She said there is a guy there that likes to play this song when he plays pool. If people there accept this happening I will vote by not going there.“

“This is the first time I’ve been somewhere quite like this. It’s a classic brewery and restaurant but it’s set in a massive space with multiple seating sections with large, excellent quality TVs. Beyond burger was a little uninspired but that’s my fault for getting something uninspiring. The beer was good, especially the coconut haze, and the spot looks like it would be electric during a major sporting event. I ended up watching curling. :-)“

“Great place for a drink and quick snack after work.“

“we have been going to this place for years. with that said service was outstanding and the food was great as expected. I had surgery on my Right Knee and still not that comfortable sitting at bench tables. no problem here they sat us at a table with both chairs and bench. Now that is great customer service. They listened and accommodated us for lunch. Thank you Islands for paying attention to detail. we will be back . oh and if you like chicken. Try their Sandpiper. I get it every time .“

“Great please to get charged“

“🙂👍 Rihanna does a great job!“

“K1 is great fun for the family. Clean, good, competitive fun.“

“🙂👍 Gonzalo and the entire staff are awesome!“

“Best Sports bar in North Park! Food is fabulous, great drink selection, and they show soccer women’s soccer (with sound!!!)“

“Bartenders were great and friendly! Fun place to watch games! Love my girl Jordan!“

“Best place to watch the Buckeyes!“

“5 out of 5 for stars.... best hidden gem in San Diego“

“Very clean inside , all workers inside are very kind. There’s a very kind gentleman that i would say is mid teens named Maddux, he is super kind and helpful. The food is amazing and made with consistency every time . Would give this mexican place a 10 star if i could. Definitely my go to mexican food spot, anyone in the area looking for good mexican food should definitely try this spot out ( it’s life changing).“

“🙂👍 Jessica does a great job!“

“This club is tucked away downtown and I kind of enjoyed it myself. A lot of couples came in, dressed in similar clothes to one another and we’re cutting a rug on the dance floor. Line dancing couples - classics of R&B . The drinks were good. Had a great time.“

“Had the best time!! Shout out to Nate for the amazing service! He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. Great attitude and top-notch customer service. Thanks for making our experience so enjoyable, we’ll definitely be back!“

“This is my regular karaoke spot, and there’s something for everyone. The crowd is a mix of ages and musical tastes, but everyone is friendly, supportive, and brings great energy.

The food and drinks are excellent, with plenty of specialty cocktails to choose from. The bartenders are awesome, just be patient when it gets busy, and don’t be afraid to flag them down. They work hard, so tip them well!

The DJs are fantastic and have a huge song selection. Just scan the QR code on the TVs, add your name to the queue, and pick your songs. My advice: do it as soon as you walk in since wait times get longer as the night gets busier.

Every night has a different vibe, from laid-back to packed and energetic. Thursdays are my favorite. great turnout, fun crowd, and always a good time. If you’re looking for a welcoming karaoke spot with great food, drinks, and atmosphere, this is it.“

“I enjoyed myself ??? The co-owner was awesome as she moved around the crowd and spoke to ppl and seen her help clear tables ? The dj on Friday night was dope, had me dancing ?? The bartender (white dude with long hair ??) he has stellar customer service ?? met friendly people and staff! I like how they have a smoking area where you could still hear the music dead on , but they could have dimmer lights in the smoking section coz it bothered my eyes ???? I didn't get to try the food but I look forward to doing so soon!! Security was on it, great communication skills amongst each other and they paid attention all around; I felt safe.. I don't think anyone would mess with ??. Bathroom was very clean and the long mirror A+ ???. I ordered patron and redbull, I suggest they keep their redbulls chilled since a customer like myself orders the entire can ? price was decent!! I went earlier so parking was great for me but probably not for the late heads ?“
