“Friends of Friends and Wavy Burgers - This is my favorite coffee shop in National city. It’s artistic, unique, and fun. I always find something new and delicious, and that’s selling it short. I’d take friends or family from out of town here, and I have. Definitely a highlight of National city and the owners should be very proud.

Only vice is sometimes the music is a touch too loud or vile with expletives over and over again… no thanks. Those days I just grab my food and dip. That’s a knock on an atmosphere star.

I will keep coming here! I’m a big fan of their orange Thai tea latte :)“

“Angelina, the hostess, was super attentive! While she was cleaning a table, I asked if she could let my server know that I wanted to change my order, and she did without hesitation. When my food arrived, she even came over to make sure it was exactly what I had ordered.

She provided exceptional customer service and made me feel taken care of throughout my visit. I truly think she has what it takes to be a great server someday!“

“The Well Deck is a hidden gem inside Navy Base San Diego. The atmosphere is clean, welcoming, and has a relaxing vibe that’s perfect after a long day on base. The staff is always friendly and professional — they really make you feel appreciated.

The food is fresh and well-prepared, with generous portions and great flavor. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down for a full meal, everything tastes like it’s made with care. Their burgers and pizzas are top-notch, and the drink selection is surprisingly good for a spot on base.

It’s definitely one of the better dining options around — great food, chill environment, and solid service every time. Highly recommend stopping by The Well Deck if you get the chance!“

“I freaking love the smash burger, I’m not much of a hotdog person unless is the chili cheese ones, besides that I love how they have variety menu items and never miss on how good they are, what I love the most is how it’s one of the few places that still keeps their old school signature parking where you can order and eat on the spot and it’s quick especially if your tired and need to eat!“

“On Sunday, November 9th, I visited the restaurant. They offered me the new burger, but I wanted to use the app, though I couldn't. The cashier, Jennifer, was very kind and tried to help, but she wasn't successful either, so she decided to call the manager, Zuquey. Zuquey managed to help me, even though she was very busy cooking. She politely told me she had a lot of orders and it would take a little while, but they would try to get the food out as quickly as possible, and they did. My order was very well done: fresh fries and perfectly cooked, hot burgers. We were very happy with the service and the place. I give the manager a 10/10, the kitchen staff a 10/10, and of course, the cashier a 10/10. Even though there were only three of them, they did a great job. I hope they value these workers, since it seems like the restaurant either doesn't have enough staff or doesn't want to hire more people, which makes it look like labor exploitation. The good thing about all this is that the few people they have are very hardworking, so they should value their employees. Congratulations! My family and I will be back very soon, we were pleased with the service.“
