“Haven't been in over a year and came back with the family and it is great to see them doing well! Great feel always and the food never disappoints. Love the brisket and tri-tip, and the cornbread is always great! If you want good BBQ in east county this is our favorite!! (Was a little warm inside, even the server was sweating but it was an extremely hot day and better than outside!)“

“If you and your family and friends are within an hour of this place, do it. Everyone will have a selection they rave about! Service is perfect and the tastes, appetizers, mains, wines, and deserts. Tell everyone!“

“Yumm. No cayenne heat in the sauce which I appreciate, just flavorful spices. Idk if there is cayenne or not it’s just not hot. Liked potato salad and loved the beans n fries.“

“Our boy is raving about u guys!“

“Every time we’ve gone, the food is good. They also have a good choice of craft beers on hand rotating. The service can be either really good or really bad. They have forgotten about us and left us waiting for a check for 40 minutes. I ordered a hamburger with two slices of cheese, when they served it the hamburger only had one slice. I asked the waitress if she could just take it back and add another slice of cheese. I am more than happy to pay for it. She blew a huffing sound, shrugged her shoulders and rolled her eyes and said whatever and walked away with the plate. When she brought it back, she sat the plate down and said, “Do you have enough cheese now”. My wife and I have actually enjoyed going to this place, but that waitress has turned me off for a while for sure.“

“I haven't had BBQ this good in San Diego. If you are craving legit smoked meats this place is awesome. service is as good as the food.“

“Riquísima comida lo atiende muy bien y rápido salimos muy contentas del Restauran mil grasias feliz ańo“

“I picked up some ribs and a sandwich for dinner last night and the food was awesome as always. Portions were big enough that I had leftovers. Corbin O'Reilly and Vince always make me feel special!“

“I stumbled upon this bar while exploring the neighborhood and ended up staying for hours. It has a rustic interior, friendly staff, and an impressive list of craft beers — both local and international. The bartender was super knowledgeable and let me sample a few before I picked my favorite. They also had board games available, which made the night even more fun. Solo or with friends — great place to chill.“

“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 🤔“

“Took a wrong turn on the freeway and that lead us to this place. We had been wanting to come in and took this as a sign. We went for the two meat meal- brisket and pork ribs with bbq beans and cole slaw. Delicious!! Brisket was fork tender and full of flavor, pork ribs were seasoned perfectly and just right. The baked beans and slaw were just as good. We liked that they let you put your own sauce on. The tables have their house made sauces, bbq and a bbq mustard. Both fantastic! They have beef ribs but only on Sundays, so we’ll need a return trip( oh darn!) Definitely have some new fans here. Oh and worth noting, we got one meal which was plenty for the two of us.“

“AMAZING AMAZING Place! Hi quality food. Huge shrimps, squids, salad, meats - all delicious. We got the prime menu. Plenty time to eat, absolutely no rush and can order any time. Great service. We have a blast! One of the best AYCE BBQ
Were busy eating and forgot to take pictures ☺“

“This was our go-to spot before the game and it didn’t disappoint. Super fun atmosphere with interactive games to play with friends, and the sliders were actually really good. Tons of TVs so you don’t miss any of the action. The best part for me was the open rooftop — gave it that outdoor feel without having to deal with the heat. Great vibes all around!“

“Me encanto el lugar que es muy familiar♥️“

“There is a wait if you go inside the restaurant but it’s worth the wait! I ordered the Sampler plate the #1 it had a big portions of each item everything tasted delicious the cornbread was moist and the garlic bread was toasty. The fountain drinks they sell there taste really good 😌 I would definitely recommend to anyone who likes bqq 😋“

“I've been to this place 10+ times. It's a small mom & pop spot, serving the type of Korean fare that you might expect. It's widely considered to be one of the best Korean joints in SD and I don't dispute that. But the star of the show is the Kimchi jiggae. I usually don't order Kimchi jiggae in restaurants, but the kimchi jiggae here is my absolute favorite, and I always get it. Their banchan is also simple yet excellent. If you want Korean food staples in SD, this is the place. Parking can be difficult, but it's Convoy, so you should know the drill.“

“Delicious food and great atenttion“

“the beef sandwich, the pork ribs, hot links, the chicken and the sides“

“The food is a 10. Fresh, cooked to order and fast service ...“

“Sushi is DELICIOUS! Customer Service is Awesome! Place is Mellow and Relaxing and very Enjoyable!“

“Located near the sdsu campus, this location is accessible to students and community members alike. The food was fresh and the katsu had a delectable crutch that left a good taste in my mouth. The cashier was a kind soul that made our L & L experience one that we’ll never forget.“

“Delicious food and great atenttion“

“We ordered lechon and it was so good! The skin was crispy and sesoned very well! Their home made sarsa was the best! 💕 we will be ordering again soon!“

“The Shack is Back! Thank you to everyone who has been by to try it out! Please leave us any and all feedback.“

“Food is prepared exceptionally well, wait time is short and the employees are kind and the store it's self is very clean and neat prices are reasonable. Coming here reminds me of Hawaii and there food out there. If you haven't had L&L put it on your to do list.“

“Our experience at Buga was a bit mixed. We visited on a weekday in the early afternoon when the restaurant was practically empty. Initially, service was excellent. Our server was attentive and eager to help, and within minutes, our side dishes and first round of meat arrived. Everything seemed off to a great start.

Unfortunately, things went downhill from there. Getting additional meat and other items felt like an exercise in patience. We often waited a long time and practically had to wave a flag to get someone's attention. We eventually discovered a service button that rings a bell, but it would have been helpful if someone had explained that to us when we were seated.

The food itself was very good. Both the short ribs and bulgogi were delicious, and the quality of the meat was a highlight. However, the overall service lacked the friendliness and attentiveness that make a Korean BBQ experience enjoyable.

Overall, Buga has good food, but our experience was pretty average. With more consistent, welcoming service, it could be a much more enjoyable restaurant.“

“Our boy is raving about u guys!“

“We got the Prime Combo #3 and everything was really good! My favorites were the wagyu beef belly and pork jowl. The combo also came with corn cheese, steamed egg, kimchi stew, and so much banchan.

I also really liked that they cook the meat for you at the table, so you can just sit back, relax, and enjoy everything without having to worry about cooking it yourself. Definitely a nice KBBQ spot if you want a more relaxed dining experience!“

“Just finished a BLT at STP. What a great sandwich. The bread was soft yet lightly crunchy. So flavorful. My husband had the Chuck Wagon and we both know we will be back!!!“

“This has been my number one place to go to for the most delicious and most freshly cooked, roasted pig, regular, whole-roasted duck, and whole roasted-open duck in the whole San Diego county!! I also like their roasted pig feet and head!!😋 I have been going here for about over two decades. I have not tried their other dishes though. My favorite dish is their whole, open roasted duck!! It's really tasty and has a lot less fat than the regular, roasted one, but it still has the right amount of moisture and flavor in the meat, except the head. The duck head is sometimes dry if it is later in the afternoon. I usually get it during their first batch in the morning when they first open at 9:30am. The Cantonese lady who's also fluent in Vietnamese and English would always ask me if I want my duck to be cut. I like to watch her cutting the whole duck into nice bite sizes and all into a box nicely and neatly. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who likes the dishes I mentioned here!“

“Delicious Japanese yakiniku barbecue at Tsuruhashi on Convoy Street! The meat was so tasty, we had high quality A5 wagyu short rib, Kobe misuji, pork belly, beef tongue, and lettuce wrap and rice. Friendly staff and the meat comes out quickly. It is not all you can eat. We enjoyed the Sapporo beer. Recommend!“

“Great to share in good company!“

“Its a fun little place to go to before Padre games .. Dorothy ( I think thats her name ) is an AWESOME bartender.. The guy on the grill was funny too .. he can grill a burger 🍔 thats for sure !!“

“Delicious food and great atenttion“

“awesome food. highly recommend“

“I had the catfish and fries with cornbread it was simply amazing it was so good nice and hot fresh I'll definitely be back again and I will recommend this restaurant to all of my family and friends“

“I had a wonderful time here. Quality meats, generous portions, and amazing service from Denzell.
It was my first time here but definitely not my last. If you're thinking about coming here don't hesitate and just come!
We did the KBBQ & Hotpot combo and it was the best way to try all of the flavors.“

“This was a great way to wrap up Comic Con. Theyb satv yes right away on Sunday evening. The food was delicious. The bbq sauce is a little spicy, but delicious. The chilli fries were delicious.

I think they may have been a little overwhelmed or short staffed. The service was a little slow. Like our drinks can't out about 3 minutes before our food.

It was really cool to sit next to the piano from Top Gun though. I would recommend this as a stop if you're in San Diego.“

“Fantastic service! Great prices. Loved the outdoor eating area and the vibe!!!“
