“"Cheers" Bar environment, tuna nigiri, Caterpillar roll and a salmon skin hand roll on a Tuesday night with Freemark Abbey wine tasting . Top that off with Bill entertaining with his jokes and stories. Priceless Drinks: great wine and beer selection Food: The team at Sushi on the rock present fresh sushi three Times a week while various food trucks fill the other days.“
“Lovely neighborhood restaurant. Food quality, taste were just perfect. My only comment would be that I did not think it's appropriate to charge $2 for each small breadstick. Bread is free in all other restaurants I frequent including those more expensive than this!! I ordered the short rib which was a stew and it needed bread to enjoy the gravy.“
“Unfortunately I think I chose the wrong items. the apps were great, others in my party’s food looked great. I however opted for the lobster-less bisque (not a single sliver of crab in it) and the side Cesar salad, sub par. Just avoid those 2 things and you’ll be good.“
“At the beginning, it was a bit disappointing as, we had made reservations for the pony room – – always before being in the bar area and they were walking us over to the restaurant?? Then they said they didn't have any room for us in the pony room/bar area however, we waited 10 minutes saw a table, get up and then requested to be sat there so we did end up sitting where we wanted,– – but only after requesting specifically from the hostess, she wasn't about to sit us there on her own. The duo was wonderful as far as entertainment, and our server was extremely attentive, and very good, and so was the food“
“Regardless if you eat at the bar or the dining room- the food will be wonderful. I like to get a bar reservation when I'm in the mood for their unique sushi. I'm always treated to the freshest plates and epic service! The dining room is more limited. A three course dinner and an upscale atmosphere. You really can't go wrong. The Market is a place I frequent regularly.“
“Can't say enough about the food, views, and our server Ryan. He made a great experience fantastic. If only all restaurants had Ryan's.Every little detail was there including soft salted butter for the bread, good patios heaters, and great food and drink suggestions from our server.“
“As a local in & out loyalist, I regret to announce that my head has officially been turned with our new neighbors north, Crispy Burger. I say “new” because it’s new to me, as I was reluctant to try this truckstop-esq spot. But boy, do I tell you, if you’re a fan of smashburgers, look no further. The burgers, fries and milkshakes are divine. Combine this with great prices, exceptipnal service, and the delight of great ranch (this truly matters), it's a sure recipe for weekly cravings. Im so happy I live a stones throw away. Overlook the highway pit stop and do yourself a favor trying crispy burger ASAP.“
“Urban Plates is a fantastic dining option for families looking for a healthy and delicious meal. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot to gather with loved ones.The menu offers a wide variety of healthy choices, from fresh salads to hearty grain bowls and flavorful proteins. Each dish is made with high-quality ingredients and expertly prepared, ensuring a satisfying and nutritious meal.And let's not forget about dessert - the options are just as delicious as the main courses. From decadent cakes to creamy puddings, there's something to satisfy every sweet tooth.Overall, Urban Plates is a must-visit for anyone looking for a wholesome and enjoyable dining experience. The food is top-notch, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the service is friendly. I can't wait to go back and try more of their delicious offerings.“
“A locals joint that I've been a repeat offender to this establishment for years. I try to support this small business as often as I can. Everyone who works here are fun, accomidating and fast. If you're ever in Escondido/East San Marcos area, stop by and get refortified in the best way ever!!“
“Great service combined with delicious food and a gorgeous oceanfront view make Jake's Del Mar an outstanding choice for a memorable dining experience!! Our party of four enjoyed every plate of food and drink. Thanks to my local cousins, who recommended we meet them there for a delicious and special dinner, and it truly was!!“
“This place is always a great place to stop by whenever we are in the area. High quality good, service and dessert. Their chicken pot pie is our favorite and any pie or dessert from the bakery is a special treat. Counting the days for us to return to this kitchen restaurant.“
“The oysters were fresh and juicy. I had Grilled mixed which included three different meat selections, good for those who's very indecisive like myself.I also tried a bite of both seabass and cod. Really like the taste and texture of the cod (don't remember the name of the dish), but the seabass was a bit dry for me.We still ordered some dessert when everyone was so full, the "peach" one was not too sweet and not too heavy after the main course.Overall, the food/service was good but pricey.“
“Carvers is one of our favorite restaurants It is a hidden secret near Von's in Rancho Bernardo. My husband lives the pork Chops & I love the filets or the Prime Rib. In the bar, they have weekend musics & they make a great burger“
“This is a long overdue review for Urban Plates. I do not usually post reviews, however, I have to reward the consistency of outstanding customer service and consistently good food with my feedback. Manager Manny Mejia is always on site greeting guests and making sure all customers have an exemplary experience. I have been coming to Urban Plates for years with my family and friends. I love the Plate Pass program that gives me 20% off of my entire bill including wine/beer. The restaurant is always clean even during their busiest times. When it is peak eating times, you may have to wait for a table but, Manny and his staff will try to make your wait as quick as possible. Finally, let's talk about the food. The beet salad is one of my all-time favorite salads. I also love the chciken tenders which are addictive as are the fries. The steak with chimichurri sauce is delicious. I always leave Urban Plates feeling satisfied and happy that I am able to enjoy tasty food prepared in a healthful way. You owe it to yourself to eat at Urban Plates.“
“I've had drinks at Nick's numerous times before and the bartenders are always fantastic and the drinks are great. Came here for dinner this time, and the food was prepared perfectly. I wouldn't say it's extraordinary or unique in any way, just your more basic American style high-end. The sea bass was cooked perfectly, however there was just a little drizzle of sauce next to it and it really left something to be desired. The fish didn't really have a lot of flavor other than the little spot of sauce that was used up after about three bites. The mashed potatoes were good, and the try to asparagus spears were decent as well! I wouldn't run to have dinner here again over all the other places available in San Diego, but the service was spot on, the food was prepared perfectly, the drinks were good and the atmosphere was lively. A great place for happy hour as well!“
“We have been to Addison for multiple special occasions since 2012. The quality of food only go up every time we visited. The food, the service and their attentiveness is top notch. Overall the experience and the food is worth going for.The only down side is that I haven’t been able to find any availability through their online reservation system since they got the Michelin stars.“
“The food at this restaurant was very good, but the service was quite slow (delivery of water, drinks, napkins, take-away box, etc.). It was a bit frustrating to sit and wait while watching the waiter stand around and talk as we waited. Even so, the food was delivered in a very reasonable amount of time, and it was very tasty. The restaurant was unusually cold inside, and the seats are very hard. We had to eat with our jackets on, and we had to take seat cushions from other chairs when they became available. We might return to this restaurant in the future, but would hope for better service.“
“Diner vibe with attentive service and ample food choices. My veggie omelet was amazing. I enjoyed it with a side pancake. My husband loved the corned beef hash!Kid-friendliness: Kids menu and plenty of kid friendly meals.Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible.“
“Insane breakfast burritos! Worth the line. The sausage egg and avo is my favorite. Do not park in the seaside parking lot or you'll get towed... their plate breakfasts are good, too but the burritos are enormous and have so much flavor. Definitely recommend when you're by the beach and looking for a good breakfast.“
“Best views in downtown del mar. The food is actually pretty good. Most people i know go for a drink and enjoy a nice day outside but i have had the food a few times and never been disappointed. The drinks and view are however the main reason i go as well. Parking is tricky but you can easily park a couple blocks away if you dont mind a 3-4 minute walk.“
“What a wonderful hidden gem. We enjoyed everything - from the warm welcome as we entered, the delicious meals and excellent service, the very cozy interior design, and the super cool built-in museum which shed light on the importance of certain historical moments. My son ordered the crab stuffed shrimp and I had the seafood mixed grill trio. The fish was very moist and tender, the beurre blanc sauce insanely tasty and the mud pie was delightful. We will be back.“
“Great DJ on the weekends; nice interior space and bar. Enjoyed the food and drinks that I ordered. The only downside is the strict 1 hr limit on parking and no leave property rule or they’ll tow. Don’t plan to come back because of that.“
“Had the pleasure of dining here with my family on March 3. Wonderful experience. Met chef Aidan at our table and what followed was a family taste sharing experience of many courses which were ordered with the help of our great server Tosh. Can't wait to come again. Great job Aidan!“
“Trudy and Susie were wonderful! The food was delicious. My daughter had the Bushfire burger and I had the salmon bowl with roasted vegetables. Both were great! My daughter's wine tasted a little off, and they comped it, plus giving her another glass on the house! Such great service. We come here quite often and we will continue.“
“This place is so cute!! I just loved it. The prices were fantastic, we had food for two and a side for a baby for less than 60$. We had Chan for our server and he was just great, left us alone but also was making sure we were taken care of. We would definitely come here again!“
“My family and I have been coming to chicks for 25 years and it has always been one of my favorites. I now am 25 and living in North Carolina and every time I come home to visit, chicks is my first meal. I would have it every day if I could. Their chicken is delicious as well as all of their sides to chose from and their corn bread is to die for. The owner and staff are like family and box every dish with love. There is truly nothing like chicks and no other healthy and comforting meal like theirs. Live, love, chicks ?“
“I honestly cannot say enough good things about my experience dining at Ponto Lago last week. From our arrival at the valet with Tom who went above and beyond to walk us to the restaurant and give us recommendations at Park Hyatt, to our greeting from the hostess to our service from Saeid and Norma- everything was incredible. We ordered the- Guavarita which was a Tequila Cocktail with Guava Foam (the guava foam was SO good): $20- Seasonal Fruit Smash which was a Berry Mocktail: $14- Burrata Salad: I don’t remember the price but it was delicious- Local Blue Fin Crudo: I’m pregnant so I couldn’t taste this but my husband loved it- Tenderloin Steak with Chimichurri, Sweet Potatoes Side & Churros for DessertThe entire meal was absolutely delicious. The portions appeared small at first but they were so flavorful and with the various courses, it was actually the perfect amount. Each dish had a phenomenal presentation and we talked about the sweet potatoes and churros for days after- they were THAT good!We’re already looking forward to our next visit to the Park Hyatt Aviara and Ponto Lago. Hoping we get the same staff as they really enhanced our experience!Parking: Valet parking only in front of Park Hyatt Resort“
“I stoped in for dinner and ordered a chocolate milkshake, cheese fries, a chili cheese coney, and a cheeseburger.Let me tell you, that milkshake was absolutely incredible! I'm not exaggerating when I say it was the best I've ever had—I even polished off the entire thing!The cheese fries were a solid 10/10. The cheese was melted to perfection, and the fries struck the ideal balance between softness and crispiness.As for the burger, it was delicious. I opted for grilled jalapenos, and wow! Another 10/10.While I'm typically not a fan of chili cheese dogs, I decided to give theirs a shot. It was tasty, but just not quite my thing.With great prices and amazing service, I highly recommend this place! I'll definitely be returning multiple times!“
“Came for a weekday lunch and had the B-appled panini which includes the pasta salad for $13. Prices are fair. Outdoor seating is picnic table style. The wait staff are fantastic! Came to ask if we needed the heater on, how the food was, and read my mind that I needed a to go box.I lost or dropped my valuable there and went to retrieve it the next day with everything in tact. Super appreciate the honesty and integrity of the staff and patrons here! Would love to come back for breakfast sometime.“
“What a great place place for some food, some beer and some fun. Amazing bar with a ton of taps. TV’s all over. Excellent, friendly and attentive staff. The food is great from the sausage platter appetizer to the loaded brisket fries and the amazing short rib melt (one of the best sandwiches i’ve had in a long, long time). Great for large groups. Excellent.“
“Food at this establishment.. On point, very delicious and a good amount.-Pups allowed, they have a huge outside area to eat; plus a Pup menu. We have a picky pup and he loved his steak.-Great choices on the menu for everyone.Service, not great for us. Our server only would check on one person. We are a please and thank you family and not even that was helpful for us. But this service will not stop us from going back.Vegetarian options: Vegan section to menu, plus SaladsWheelchair accessibility: We didn’t go inside, but there is a entrance for people bringing there pups and was an easy access to side entrance.. width was pretty wide.“
“Simply the best BBQ around. This takeout restaurant is our favorite. Everything from beef ribs to brisket is excellent and most importantly done consistently well. We get dinner from Bubba's every week. Highly recommend. It's family owned and operated which is great as it allows us to support a neighborhood business and family.“
“A (literally) hidden gem. The restaurant rests beside a small pond, found only by following a trail from the parking lot. Sitting outside under a cozy heat lamp, my husband enjoyed trying several beers while I had a POG seltzer. The service was fantastic, and the food was the best we'd had in a long time. I thoroughly enjoyed the locally crafted sausages and the baked mac n cheese. I learned that the sauces and dressings are made in house. My husband had the ahi nachos - chips and sauces also made in house. We'll be coming back!“
“I ordered the Chicago dog from Duff and it was very tasty. The choices in the menu looked all appealing and the restaurant area looked nice and clean. The food was brought out quickly and looked amazing. Duff was very friendly and helped me pick out my order.“
“Polo Steakhouse continues to impress with its attention to detail and culinary excellence. The addition of New York steak to the menu further enhances the dining experience, offering another delectable option for steak enthusiasts. Cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor, the New York steak is a testament to the restaurant's commitment to quality.Before diving into the main course, indulge in their bread appetizer, a delightful assortment of freshly baked bread paired with artisanal spreads. It's the perfect way to whet your appetite and set the stage for the feast to come.As for the cocktails, they are nothing short of extraordinary. Expertly crafted with premium spirits and innovative flavor combinations, each sip is a journey for the senses.

With exceptional service, a luxurious atmosphere, and a menu that showcases the finest ingredients, it's a culinary destination that never fails to impress.“
“This locally sourced eatery is a terrific place and no doubt a hidden gem in San Diego.I stopped in for breakfast and ordered the breakfast sandwich, which came with three cage free eggs, sharp white cheddar, arugula, a chipotle aioli, on toasted brioche buns. You can add Nueske bacon to the sandwich for an extra fee.I loved that they used a soft scramble for their egg preparation. They did a great job on the eggs. They were light and fluffy. The eggs were very tasty, and the thick cut bacon was very flavorful and had a good chew. I loved that they took the time to toast the brioche buns. The aioli was tasty, the arugula peppery, and the white cheddar had a touch of sharpness.I had a cortado with my breakfast, and it was great. They offer a quality Italian roast. The cafe offers inside and outside seating. They also have grown many of the herbs they use on the premise. They offer great customer service.“
“Much more than just organic and conscience-free KFC. We go for the Big Flock and Baja Chop for a takeout but fun to eat in too. Imaginative selection of chicken sandwiches, salads. Drinks too.Kid-friendliness: Play areas to keep them entertained.“
“Having fun and cheap drinks at a landmark before it gets redeveloped.Good bless Jerry for all of the amazing things that has done for his employees and the locals of Encinitas.And the food is on point, it is not a fast food joint..Thank you Jerry for all you have done for my family and this community.“
“******SIX STAR REVIEW!!!!!!Gerry and Dodge are awesome!!!!!! They possess perfect customer service skills. They are exceptionally fast, friendly and exceedingly efficient professionals. They made sure our orders were perfect. They were very accommodating and took great care of us. All the food and drinks were out of this world delicious. Both are apex pinnacle top talent!!!!!!Gerry and Dodge reflect notably upon Phil’s BBQ Rancho Bernardo!!!!!!Thanks!!!!!!VRS "JJ" ("The Gunny")“
“We like this place and the food is good but kinda pricey but everywhere it seems that way. A fair warning... we went for Thursday Karaoke night and reserved a table an hour before it started and planned on eating dinner and having drinks. Upon being seated, we were told we needed to order using our phones. We're seniors, so it's not easy for us, but we managed. We were also told that if all tables fill up, if we've been there longer than others, we would need to give up our table to others on the wait list. This meant standing which, with my mobility issues, is a problem. We mentioned this and the host said they would try to accommodate. As it turned out, we didn't end up needing to move but worried about this the entire evening. She said it's rare that they have to have you give up your table but still is crazy to do that to a group that is eating and drinking. We finished our food but we still ordered beer. The place never got busy enough for overflow and the weather probably helped that. The table behind us got seated are us and was not told about the table seating situation. So be warned if you go on a busy night, this could happen. Overall the place is cool, with arcade games for adults and kids and outdoor area is nice. Staff is very nice. Food and drink comes out fast which is good.“
“This is a local hang out out and I eat here with a friend that eats here almost daily. Good comfort food , great service and lots of breakfast and lunch combinations. They also had a gluten free toast for my breakfast. Also plenty of healthy options like fruit, granola and whipped cream. Looks like they are always busy but plenty of tables and booths.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free toast available“
“A constant place of gathering for my coworkers and I who worked in the San Elijo Area. This time we met on a weekend for brunch. I ordered a Pannikin coffee and Cinnamon Toast French Toast. Really thick slices of French Toast, I’m kinda weird and prefer thin slices but this was still good. Others got an omelette or a wrap. Everyone like their food, service was nice, bit pricey but in line with the local restaurants.“
“Started going to Draft Republic back when Urge was using the spot. But really nice area for with so many possibilities for events. You have the bowling alley, the large outside area, an arcade area and a bar area. Last time I visited here, I ordered the BO Beau's Famous Crispy Brussels Sprouts (pancetta, shaved parmesan, balsamic reduction). These were the best brussel sprouts I've ever tasted. I mean not sure how healthy they are but wow I could definitely eat this ever day. Amazing taste, crispiness, and flavor. Would recommend this place!“
“They are stingy with the value menu. Be sure to ask for it unless you have money to throw around. I do not, so I opt for those selections.I think they hide this so they can make more tips. Not cool when you're on a budget, but still know you need to tip!Miramar Dennys smells funny and is stuffy, but Mira Mesa Dennys was a million degrees and way too busy for the staff they had.Food is good enough, consistent. Always appreciated.Way too hot. It's 76 degrees outside and about 74 in here. Poor servers.“

“Great local spot and my go to dive bar to watch sports and enjoy bar food. They have wing wednesday and my top picks are there philly cheesesteak with fried green beans, lemon pepper dry rub wings, and the bratwurst. Service is unique and puts a fun twist on letting you know your order is ready with funny names. Cant go wrong with any if their beers on the wall, i typically go with the #15 or #22 hazy beer“
“Both the Turkey Club and the Salmon Burger were amazing. The fries however were overcooked. Great portion size and great cut for the fries, just sat a bit too long in oil. The atmosphere and service is great. Prices are adequate for the area.“
“Home style delicious cookingwith a warm, friendly environment. Portions are large!Plastic dividers added - friendly with large portions - hasn't changed!Nice to see the same staff - says a lot.Somethings never change.Thank you, Pegasus, for an amazing 2023 service, and we look forward to dining with you all next year!Parking: Easy access and plentiful“
“This was a fantastic experience. We took the tour with Lee. He was very knowledgeable, and we learned quite a bit. Top notch. Had a few drinks at the bar, Laura was fantastic. The interior was beautiful. Lots of natural light. Great deals for their bottles. Had a great time, I definitely recommend a trip here.“
“I love Thyme, and their kind staff. The baked goods, lunch items and coffee drinks are so delicious. I love the tuna sandwich and soup combo they have. Sometimes I order a latte and muffin too. I don't recommend this area to meet nice people other than the ones working there (rancho Santa Fe). No offense.Kid-friendliness: Not really kid friendly due to the small cottage space“
