“We never came here for dinner when it was just Pacific Coast spirits because it always looked empty. But we popped in at one point and realized it was actually a pretty cool place to hang with great beer.

We learned that the owners of South Coast brewing took it over and they were redoing the menu. So we came in today and it was absolutely fabulous you guys. We had the chicken schnitzel and the Cajun pasta. I also had the best hazy beer of my life.

I really stand by these owners and definitely check out South brewing as well… great people and they do an amazing job. I really hope to see this place fills up and becomes a hot spot. Great people, great food, great drinks.“

“We were in Oceanside for a week and visited Finney's 3 times. Loved the fun vibe downstairs and upstairs. It's rare to find good, friendly service these days, but you will find it here! The food was incredible and decently priced. Even better if you can make Happy Hour. I can't list all the favorites because our group tried so many apps, salads, pizzas and sandwiches over the 3 days and everyone was very happy. A couple personal tips - get a side of the nashville hot sauce for Peggy's crispy chicken sandwich if you like spicy. A5 Wagyu Burger - try the steak sauce on the side. We tried it with it on and off. Half of us preferred it without the steak sauce as we felt we could taste the delicious meat flavor more without it...but that's our personal opinions. Highly recommended, you will be happy you gave Finney's a try!“

“What a beautiful restaurant and amazing service and loved how they go over the menu ! We went for anniversary lunch it was chill and the food was amazing! Wish it wasn’t 500 miles away but we be back! We love Oceanside and this restaurant!“

“The Pour House became one of my favorite bars! The food is great and not too expensive! The staff works hard and makes you feel welcome! Great spot for live bands and always good vibes! Never had problems parking but for that smashburger i would walk 500 miles and 500 more hahaha 📸🤓“

“Great drinks. My Favorite.. Alamo Margarita“

“REVISED TO SAY: The restaurant is under new management and I have nothing but praises to sing.I booked Iron Mike's for a group of general officers and a very senior enlisted Marine yesterday and the whole experience was amazing in a number of ways:-Nobody was answering the phone at the event center, so I was there in person early, before opening. Nobody was able to help me until I magically bumped into the restaurant owner/manager Renee. He immediately dropped what he was doing, took me to the restaurant, showed me where he could set up a table and asked me if I wanted waist height or high top tables. He also introduced me to the chef.-While I was waiting for my group to show up later that day he checked with me to see how they would want the tab, and a few other very insightful questions.-When the group showed up he greeted them in person and made their entry very smooth.All in all it was fantastic service. When I spoke to my group of stars later everyone said they enjoyed lunch thoroughly, liked that it was quiet and they could talk, the food was really good and it was an easy experience for them overall.Thank you to those at Iron Mikes who made that part of their day so seamless and enjoyable!“

“Stumbled upon Grandma’s Restaurant by chance, and boy am I glad I did! Our wait staff was so incredibly kind, and very enthusiastic about his job. He was a joy to talk to and took wonderful care of us. Then… THE FOOOOOOD. The onion rings are made as you order them, and come out piping hot. I ordered the Ortega chile burger, and it was everything I was craving. Super juicy, perfectly cooked, and so flavorful. My mom had the pancakes and couldn’t stop raving about them—which is high praise because she is really picky about pancakes. We would absolutely come back again, and highly recommend this place!“
