“New owners who have revamped the place for the better. More lighting, better TV's and sound system. Also, great place to hang on a hot day because of the AC. Great happy hour specials and nice friendly bartenders. The have free food during special events like UFC and Boxing fights. They occasionally have food vendors mostly tacos on certain days. Don't sleep on this place!”

“Everything, from the communication leading up to our visit, to the elegant service, delicious food (even with an electrical problem in the kitchen causing a limited selection - so well handled we hardly noticed!), to the buzzing ambience, to the superb setting and decor - all came together in a perfectly beautiful evening. We will be back very soon and look forward to it!!!”

“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 😋😉”

“Went in on a Friday night with a couple friends and had a pretty good time. The place had a relaxed vibe, not too loud, and it was easy to actually have a conversation. Bartender was friendly and gave a few suggestions when we couldn't decide what to order. Drinks came out quick and tasted great. The crowd was mixed and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. Prices were fair for the area too. Nothing overly fancy, just a solid neighborhood bar where you can kick back for a few hours. I'd definitely come back when I'm in the area again.”

“Definitely not a place that gets going all night like a club would but a very cool and quaint spot to grab a drink with a group friends. Pool tables and a variety of drinks on tap. Bartenders are receptive as well. Juke Box is a plus to play music of one’s choice.It’s honestly kind of it’s own place in the middle of everything, but wouldn’t mind staying here for a night and drink the night away. The Elwood is nearby too.”

“Lived in San Diego for decades. Rarely went out but always passed Chicos. Finally went there. Just found a neighborhood watering hole. Met a nice regular, a chef from the Grant. Bartender was great. Using the website, he made the unique frappe I asked for. Next it was beer for me. The selection was good and prices more than competitive. There are several pool tables and the Padre game was on the biggest screen. We'll be going back.”

“The woman, Kristie I think is her name, that runs this bar is so amazingly friendly and wonderful to be around I love going there partially because of her, but they also have two pool tables and a dart board which is the reason I go. It's an amazing diverse mix of people in the middle of Hillcrest. It's not all gay or all straight. Don't pass this bar up it's been around for a long time and it's a great place to go.”

“Stopped in on a Thursday night while visiting from out of town. It was pretty quiet with only a couple other people there, but the bartender was incredibly friendly and easy to talk to. We had a drink and then headed to another spot. I would definitely recommend going on a busier night for more energy, but overall a welcoming vibe.”
