Restaurants in San Diego

“The best tacos I have had in San Diego . Great service and really good food”

“Excellent food and very good service. Everything was delicious and the portions were huge. It was expensive for breakfast, but great for a special occasion.”

“Excellent service great food always a pleasure to dine here”

“Pero mad Chingona! The shrimp basket was excellent. My guy brought me another beer since the kitchen was taking forever. 5/5. This place gets it and there is no better seafood on the peninsula!”

“Always an amazing experience at Animae!”

“Hands down one of the best pastries I’ve had. We visited the bakery at the end of the day so they only had a few options left. We got the orange almond cookie and cinnamon bun. Orange cookie was so fragrant and quite chewy. Cinnamon bun was extremely flaky and sugary (but not too sweet somehow). I will visit early another time to try out some other pastries.”

“Amazing food. Delicious & unique drinks. All very reasonable. Will definitely return & highly recommended!!”

“Great chefs, great staff, great food, great sake… what’s not to like when everything was great!?!?”

“If I was a local, this would be a regular spot for me. Priced well, quick service and a great selection on the menu. The flavors are clean and bright. I am a fan and hope to return soon!”

“Great all around dining experience.”

“I am delighted with my experience at this Italian restaurant! From the moment I walked in, I was transported to Italy with a warm ambiance and friendly staff. The food was extraordinary; each dish burst with authentic flavors that joyfully made my taste buds sing. The attention to detail in every plate was evident, showcasing the chef's expertise and dedication to traditional Italian cuisine. The pasta was cooked to perfection, sauces were rich and flavorful, and the ingredients were fresh and high-quality. Not only was the food exceptional, but the service was impeccable. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable and made the entire dining experience even more delightful. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an unforgettable Italian dining experience in San Diego. In my opinion, this establishment undoubtedly deserves the title of the best Italian restaurant in town.”

“excellent fish tacos served here! maybe the best in SD!”

“Absolutely worth the wait, this place is amazing. Not only is the food over the top great but the staff is super friendly and the service is top notch. I highly recommend and I will always be a customer!!!”

“Outstanding staff! Great food! A must go!”

“Well, I don't live anywhere near Finjan, but I do have to go very near there about once a month for appts. Today was the day I stopped in to try their coffee. It was such a wonderful experience. I didn't want to go to the "usual" coffee places. I ordered a Salted Pistachio Iced Latte. While I waited, I was able to watch them make the typical Turkish Coffees in the hot sand pit which was so fun and interesting! The employees were so nice and helpful. If you want a "fast" cup of coffee, go somewhere else. Here, you will get an EXCEPTIONAL cup of coffee and homey, fun experience. Take a few minutes, slow down and enjoy this amazing place. Oh, I tried the Pistachio Baklawa. I'm Greek and make Baklava (In Greek) all the time, and this was delicious. Sad that it's not near my home. Would I make a special trip to come back? ABSOLUTELY! I will also bring my friends!!!”

“If you are looking for a true Italian experience in San Diego, look no further than Vinarius! We worked with Giuseppe (owner) to host our wedding celebration here back in March, 2023. From the beginning, he was amazing to work with. Incredibly positive and accommodating from the start, we couldn’t have asked for more. The wedding ceremony was planned to be outside and of course, it rained that day. Guiseppe and his staff went above and beyond to accommodate us, allowed us to have the small ceremony inside the restaurant on short notice and made an incredible meal to follow. Our guests were blown away and we couldn’t have been happier. We recommend Vinarius to everyone we know and that is thanks to Giuseppe and his awesome staff. Grazie mille!”

“Vietnamese coffee is very good. I love egg coffee at this place.

Parking: It takes 5-10 minutes to find free street parking. Otherwise paid parking garage just a walking distance to coffee shop and only $6/day.
There's a restaurant name Shank & Bone Vietnamese Restaurant on University Avenue it's a Vietnamese Pho restaurant just block away from Saigon Coffee.

Kid-friendliness: Yes kids like to take a walk around the area. Environment looks like a downtown”

“Very fun and lively atmosphere! The design is very well done. The food was great, I personally loved the oysters as they were served differently than I have experienced. The jalapeño Caesar salad was also amazing! Had a kick! Main dishes I enjoyed were the burger, and the chicken, very good and flavorful. Very fun and different cocktails to choose from along with fun zero proof options which is great if you do not drink alcohol. Service was spectacular, very kind, professional and knowledgeable about the menu. We will be coming back!”

“Romantic escape, offering an intimate ambiance and beautifully crafted dishes that surprise and delight. The creative cocktails and attentive service make it the perfect spot for a memorable evening.”

“Loved it. Had many shops inside, places to eat,”

“Always fresh and delicious Authentic Italian food . I highly recommend Monzu ❤️”

“First of all, it is extremely difficult to make a reservation. ???

It took us TWO YEARS to finally dinning at this exquisite restaurant.??

I deeply appreciate this waitress to allow me to record this video. ❤️❤️❤️

The service is absolutely excellent! And it is not bad at all to enjoy your omakase on the patio. They have an under table heater so you won't feel cold.???

Parking is only street parking.

This humble looking Japanese restaurant is actually a Michelin One Star.

The only way to make a reservation is via their reservation partner. They will send you an email notification like two hours ahead of your reservation.

However, you have to really "fast hand" to confirm your reservation. If you are like a sloth, you will never be able to complete your reservation.???

And, they will charge a despite of $50/ person when the reservation is confirmed.”

“My wife and I eat at Ciccia’s regularly but this is our first review after 4 years. Sorry Francesca and Mario! (In my defense I practically never ever write a review.) We keep coming back for the food, ambiance and hospitality. **We’ve gone 3 times in the last week! The crab gnocchi is my wife’s favorite. I get something different almost every time. Every visit I ask Mario about the specials as I like to sample the beef and/or fish (Branzino!) they prepare in addition to pasta. Try the Tomahawk steak if it’s a special that day (call ahead) and you will be amazed. Too many times we fill up on appetizers like mushroom flan, breaded zucchini, calamari, antipasto, and the choices go on! But that’s what to-go containers are for. So much good food to eat at Ciccias we tend to order too many things. It is simply fun to dine there. Once you’re inside the restaurant area (patio area or indoor area) the ambiance is quaint and cozy. Ciccia’s is not big and it’s always filled, but we never feel like it’s too crowded. The energy is always fun and upbeat. Which makes people stay awhile, so let me recommend getting reservations. We’ve had to wait 10-15 minutes but nothing’s perfect! If you want a breezy quick dinner before going off to an event you may want to go to Ciccia’s on another night. Hospitality is what you would expect of a small Italian restaurant run by the owners. Terrific!! If it’s your first time, read their story on the website before you go. They are bona fide top chefs who followed their dreams to open their own place. What a gem it is tucked inside Barrio Logan. One thing regulars may notice is that staff doesn’t appear to turn over much as I’ve seen the same faces working there for years. I think that reflects well on the restaurant. I don’t take pictures of food very often but last night I did. We stopped by at around 9 just to get dessert and a cocktail. My wife had the ricotta cake with apricot and habanero sauce (wow!) and I had cassata siciliana which is traditional cake from Sicily. Pretty to look at and yes, it’s delicious. They do a good job with making an Old Fashioned, which always pairs well with dessert 😜 Buon appetito!”

“Wow! The most authentic omakase in SoCal!!!! Hiro and Masa are absolutely amazing chefs and food was just TOP! Plus the stories they shared… unforgettable connection. ♥️♥️♥️”

“Amazing food chef is incredible great drinks too”

“Thhheeeee absolute BEST pizza on the west coast HANDS DOWN!! Im from Brooklyn, NY and they definitely brought the authentic expirence and taste from home!!! I bring all my friends here! This is one of my happy places! Food-10 Service-10 Location-10 Price-10 😀”

“Our server Cam was awesome and food was great! Got to try it. Great dumplings!!!”

“This place has thought of everything!!! The aesthetic is incredible, every detail better than the next, and the food and drinks are tastyyyyy with just as thoughtful service!! Shout out to our server Emmy, she was so sweet and on top of all our orders, thank you!”

“Wow, their Tacos al Pastor and Asada were fantastic. Good service in a fast casual style that was both fast and affordable.

Highly recommend to Vegans and friends alike.”

“Service and ambiance, exceptional service and night life… live dj, good musical and still able to have conversation”

“Amazing omakase, friendly and knowledgeable staff”

“This is a gem of a place. First of they have the absolute most adorable little server name Summer. She probably doesn’t know her multiplication table yet but can make you the best dumplings recommendations. Go out of your way to pay this place a visit.”

“Spending my evening at a new restaurant in South Park called Il Posto. So far everything I’ve tried is spectacular.”

“The food was good, but I had to wait a long time since the restaurant was crowded. I love the decoration of the food. The taste is a combination of Asian and Hispanic, very unique.”

“Lovely staff and delicious food”

“Great food and great service! Food was fresh and expertly prepared! Probably the best service I have ever experienced and the place was busy at the time we were there!!”

“Fun!! Oysters were the bomb!!”

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience here. Our server (I believe his name was Carter) was exceptional and very accommodating. All the dishes we ordered were delicious and flavorful. They also have a wide array of tasty cocktails to choose from. The only critique I have is the portion size. I don't mind paying a premium and I acknowledge the quality but the value should be commensurate with the cost. Otherwise, we had an excellent experience. Highly recommend.”

“Best food, drink, service and atmosphere I have experienced in a long time. Rivals Michelin restaurants.”

“Super nice speakeasy in downtown San Diego service is phenomenal and drinks are amazing! Thank you to Sam for the amazing drinks and presentation definitely shows you love what you do! Can’t wait to come back with my friends here again!”

“Great place, great food, service is excellent, everybody is having a good time and it shows, this place is a must in SD, whether you go as a couple or with friends, definitely recommended!!!”

“@kinmesd delivered a memorable experience for us. From beginning to end I was in awe with the attention to detail, precision and heart they put into every bite. There was never a moment we weren’t taken care of by the chef’s assistants. It was beautiful to watch a group of people work together, harmoniously, and the reflection that had on the food.

@kinmesd I will be thinking about this meal for a very long time. Thank you for making our anniversary dinner such a special experience.”

“Got a torta al pastor, absolutely delicious. Thanks yall!”

“Came here with a buddy to celebrate his promotion. Got the executive meat plate since we'd never tried the steaks here before. The best for me was the dry aged filet mignon followed by the dry aged ribeye. Lamb lollipops were great snack while we waited for the main course. Drinks were a little bit pricey, but the old fashioned had a proper fat wash and the flavor was superb. Overall it was a fun spot for a special occasion and certainly one of the premium steak houses in San Diego to get dry aged cuts.”

“Normally I like to keep gems like this to myself, but walking through literal back alleys in San Diego to be introduced to this incredible Hi-Fi listening speakeasy was just too awesome and I hope everyone I love gets a chance to get on the reservation list, stat. I'm a speakeasy veteran with a coast to coast cocktail sipping resume that spans from SF to Boston and New Orleans to Chicago, and this spot has definitely landed in my top ten. The atmosphere, the staff, the tunes, and the drinks are all so special and perfectly curated for maximum delight. Every aspect of CMB is comfortable and balanced, and so very easy to enjoy. They found a great groove and kept it going.”

“Delicioso y muy bien servido”

“I like the attention , i like food desserts the place looks very clean”

“I haven't been to rudfords in years, do to moving south. I was so hungry for the outstanding split pea soup on Saturday, still the best ever. So glad jordan is still working there, he is so delightful and and friendly, he is definitely a keeper. So glad exmanager jose is gone,. What a scan. K sorry about Diane's passing, I really liked her. Keep up the good work. Spinach omelette for awesome, wow.”

“I recently visited this Taco shop and I must say, I was pleasantly surprised. We walked in for an evening meal and, honestly, with low expectations.
Everyone in my party chose different items and they were all delicious. My husband and I ordered tortas, his asada and mine chicken. Chicken tortas are typically not very tasty. This is the first one I've ever had that was quite delicious. My husband, who is very picky about his food was also happy. That is rare. I don't live in the area but when I'm there in the future, I'll definitely be back. Great tasting food!”

“Happy to dine in again. great to see staff and great service as always.”

“I have got to say…. I am so happy we decided to do this for our pup, Cash. We have a 6 month old Rottie and I was so happy to introduce these products. First thing given was the rabbit foot. He played with it for a couple minutes to eventually devouring it! Next was the Lamb Trachea. Again, being foreign, he played with it for a couple of minutes and then devoured it. My boy devoured the rabbit head and Cow ear I loved being able to see the teeth. To know that my boy is gaining these nutrients as a chew is awesome. Those are the only four items we have tried. He has eaten three rabbit feet, one cow ear, one rabbit head and two tracheas. So happy we made this decision. I now live in North Dakota but I am from SD and love that we’re able to support a small company. Would love to continue supporting the best ways possible. Keep up the great work!!”

“They make the best tacos and burritos in the world, period! We had a few fish and shrimp tacos here and took some more to-go, along with a couple of burritos. The food was fresh and full of flavors and priced ridiculously low for such great quality and huge portions. The staff was friendly and quick.”

“Ordered rolled tacos and other dishes. Most of our food was good. However, the role tacos were very hard.....not crispy but tortillas were really hard and could not chew.

Parking: There are not many parking spaces for the taco shop. Most of the slots are for the shops in the small center and hard to find a spot most of the time . Also hard to find parking on the street. Your best bet would be to go in the drive through and go to eat somewhere else.”

“I Love This Place Best Food”

“Great food good service. Always busy which means good food totally satisfied ! Thanks Colima’s see you again soon”

“Server Zelda was amazing

Vegetarian options: Some

“Foodiz Kitchen played a key role in making our family celebration truly special. They provided multiple meals that were not only delicious but beautifully presented. The team was incredibly easy to work with and the staff went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional, and we couldn’t be happier with their service. Highly recommend for any event!

Dietary restrictions: Easily navigated our needs.”

“la comida con Mo siempre muy sabrosa. recomendado al cien.”

“LAS PERSONAS QUE NOS ATENDIERON FUERON MUY AMABLES Y SIEMPRE CON UNA SONRISA Y BUENA ACTITUD POSITIVA”

“I've been using their French loaves for all the sandwiches at my shop, WeBeOB, since we opened in May '20Outstanding, delicious!!!! It's all about the bread.”

“My friend was flying in from out of state and arrived at 12:30am, and we still have the option to enjoy such authentic Chinese bbq skewers. Everything was well seasoned. My only hope is having more skewer varieties!”

“The service was exquisite. It felt like the gods served my bowl pho. Our waitress tala was sensational. Im sure if I was homeless, she would offer me a bowl of pho on the house. 10/10 would munch on again.”

“Love their new location downtown. More space with the same high quality croissants and sourdough loaves. Chocolate croissant and olive pecan sourdough are my favorites.”

“This is like a mini punjab . Food is always fresh and delicious.The employees are hard working and polite whenever i visit this restaurant i feel like i'm at home.”

“Absolutely delicious Lebanese food! Must try the dessert aaysha essaraya.. zatar bread. They have a lot of vegetarian options too .. and the service is friendly!”

“This was one of our favorite places in Carlsbad! Delicious ice cream (and yummy waffle cone) to enjoy in a cozy seating area!”

“4 stars because parking is chaos. They need to use toast pos and turn on curb side pick up and create a spot . Also have a 2 min parking spot for grab and go online orders food is always amazing

Parking: It’s busy so be aggressive”

“The food is delicious and hospitality is too good.Staff is polite .Main attraction is dancing noodle show.They have robot service for food. must visit this restaurant for at least once🥰😋”

“excelente servicio y súper ricos los platillos”

“Good place to come for a little dessert ! Just the right amount of sweetness ! Best part is youre able to customize your soft serve with toppings ! Good price , good quality and good service ! 10/10 reccommend ! We will return soon!!!”

“Fantastic, velvety smooth creative flavors and made from scratch! They also switch out their flavors every 2 weeks or so! Fun concept, wonderful staff. Highly recommend. Putting San Diego on the food map :)”

“Fantastic food quality. Purist food.”

“Quaint coffee shop. Very good coffee. Great breakfast options. Empanada, ham and cheese croissant, pastries. Needs more seating. Area could be organized to seat more people.”

“Delicious malts and delicious food! Homemade French fries and home made ranch dressing”

“Very nice environment and outstanding food and entertainment 👌 😀”

“Best fresh açaí bowls. A wide variety of whatever you desire.”

“My daughters and I had brunch here, and the staff was really friendly. The place had a nice atmosphere with great outdoor seating. While it's not a vegan restaurant, they were able to adjust my dish, the Mediterranean Breakfast, to make it vegan. Everything was good, but the salad was way too salty with too much dressing. I should have asked for the dressing on the side. My daughter got the churros. They were okay, but I thought they were too doughy, so I wouldn’t order them again.”

“Good service, good atmosphere, great food”

“Really good, homey feeling, we had to wait quite a while when we went. No reservations available. Will probably return. Not the absolute best ramen I’ve had but very good for the price.”

“Fun atmosphere, fun drinks and great staff!”

“excelente servicio y súper ricos los platillos”

“I was nervous about the flavors, mostly because I didn’t know what they were! But was able to taste test and decided on the Quattroberry and stracciatella. Delicious! Great price- $6.50 for two big scoops! Definitely wanted to go back. Try the dragon fruit/lemon one- super tart and so good!”

“Tastylife™️. Would buy treats again.”

“My family and I were visiting San Diego for my daughters 21st birthday. I thought of everything but the cake. I called Kona Kakes on Friday hoping for a cake by Sunday, I was told they are closed on Sunday, so they could have it ready on Saturday. We were enjoying the zoo Saturday and I completely forgot about the cake. It was after store hours but I tried to reach them by phone anyways, the owner answered and said she would wait for us to arrive. This in itself was truly amazing, but the cake! The cake was beautiful, delicious, moist, decadent, and extremely flavorful! We had the Caramel Macadamia Nut Cake. Everyone and most of all, my daughter loved the cake! If you live near Kona Kakes then count yourself blessed and try this place. I wish there was a Kona Kakes in Las Vegas.”

“This place deserves a michelen star. The service treats you like a king. Awesome vibes, and awesome food. Best restraint ever!

Kid-friendliness: The staff are very polite, and there is a very well kept environment.”

“We had a cider from here at the San Diego Zoo and had to check it out and glad that we did! What a wonderful place!!!

The bartender was very knowledgeable and we had amazing service the entire time. The decor and everything just fit and suited the vibe. One of the best thing is about this place is that it's DOG FRIENDLY! Met the cutest furry friends here that just added to the experience.

Definitely do the cider tasting and the polenta tots was different and interesting. Seems like a great place for a meal, catch a sports game or catch up with friends or a nice place to chill while you are in between meet ups or appointments.”

“Excellent food and the service was splendid.”

“Such a wonderful vegan oasis in the San Fernando Valley! As locals know vegan offerings in the valley are limited compared with the rest of the city. I am so happy that I found this place I will be coming here often! Great food and atmosphere all around!”

“Juan Jasper’s Wine Bistro - A Golden Hill Treasure

Don’t let the simple “wine bar and restaurant” description fool you - Juan Jasper’s is the kind of place that turns first-time visitors into regulars before they’ve finished their first glass of wine. Tucked away in Golden Hill, this cozy spot has mastered what so many other places try to manufacture: genuine community.

Let’s talk about the food, because it deserves the spotlight. They serve what might just be the best fries in San Diego - no small claim in a city full of great food. Their burger? It’s a standout served with bordelais. The menu changes regularly, offering a thoughtful selection of global classics that pair perfectly with their wine selection.

Speaking of wine, Juan Jasper’s maintains an impressive and ever-rotating selection of wines from around the world. Whether you’re staying to enjoy a glass (or bottle) with your meal or picking something up to take home, their knowledgeable staff will help you find exactly what you’re looking for.

But what truly sets this place apart is the atmosphere. Walk in and you’ll likely be greeted with a hug rather than a formal hello. Regulars welcome newcomers like old friends, making introductions all around. It’s the kind of place where solo diners end up joining other tables, where conversations flow freely between strangers, and where everyone seems to be having a wonderful time together—even former strangers.

This isn’t a pretentious wine bar or an exclusive club - it’s a neighborhood gem where great food, excellent wine, and genuine hospitality come together to create something magical. If you’re looking for a new favorite spot in San Diego, Juan Jasper’s should be at the top of your list.”

“Everyone enjoyed the pasta & pizza”

“The shrimp head moving scared the crap out of me but everything was delicious and awesome”

“Shaun stands out as the most extraordinary restaurant manager I've ever had the pleasure of encountering. His service wasn't just outstanding—it was genuinely awe-inspiring. As a solo diner, Shaun made an extra effort to ensure I felt incredibly welcomed. His dedication to going above and beyond was evident in his eagerness to share fascinating insights about the kitchen, catering perfectly to my enthusiasm as a food aficionado. While the cuisine at Addison was nothing short of superb, it was Shaun's unparalleled service that elevated the entire experience to divine heights. His warm, understanding, and inviting personality made every interaction memorable. The thoughtful gesture of a sweet little treat upon departure was the cherry on top of a flawlessly coordinated dining experience. Having visited other Michelin-starred establishments, I can confidently place Addison in my top three worldwide dining experiences, largely thanks to Shaun's exceptional touch. Truly, a delightful experience in every sense.”

“Gorgeous view and atmosphere”

“I've traveled all over the world and every 5 star restaurant. I have never eaten a better Crab cake anywhere as well as the finest Chilean sea bass And the calamari was superb. Crystal our server and the entire team of servers and hosts were 5 star. Try the fresh lemonade!”

“We came here to celebrate my birthday and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The dining room is intimate but well appointed, with obvious care given to the sensory experience. Every dish was meticulously prepared, and the Chefs were friendly and knowledgeable. Their love for food and the culinary experience was evident in every dish. We can't wait to go back and see what else Chef John has in store for us!”

“The best you can find stateside without a doubt and better than most in Japan too and I lived in Japan for 10 years. �. Can’t go wrong and the atmosphere is awesome. �”

“The skirt steak will make you cry. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Classy and elegant atmosphere perfect for a fine dining experience (without the snobbery)! The table side caviar service is pure ecstasy and a must if you’ve never had it before. The whiskey flights did not disappoint either. Our waiter treated us like family and the entire staff was friendly and knowledgeable. If you’re looking for a memorable meal, the Huntress is a slam dunk! Highly recommend!”

“Had lunch with my sister. Great food and portions. Kyle our waiter was friendly and attentive.”

“What a FANTASTIC experience. Our Event Took Place December 21, 2024 at the Harbor Drive location in San Diego . All of our expectations were surpassed by Jeffreys Team. Brandon was very intentional regarding the small details and accommodations which unexpectedly came up. The food was AMAZINGlYflavorful and ALL 13 of us were served together without any delay. I can’t say enough about Rachel who really brought the personal touch and execution to our event. Thank you to those behind the scene as well, everything was OUTSTANDING.”

“Overall excellent steak dinner”

“We had a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The fish was delicious, and the ambiance was very inviting with a laid-back vibe. We will definitely be returning and highly recommend it.”

“Server was kind. Nice atmosphere. Dress code does not seem to be strictly enforced, which could be a pro or a con depending on your preference. Free onion bread was quite tasty. The 16 oz ribeye had an incredible crust on it. The steaks don't come with any sides, but the portions are so big you will be stuffed regardless so it's not really a problem (other than forgoing a balanced diet). The only quibble is that I had to wait about half an hour after finishing up before I was able to pay the bill and leave. I imagine this is less of a problem if you're with someone else but it's a bit awkward to be sitting around as a solo diner.”

“The Prestige - Magic Lounge & Showroom, San Diego is a magical experience that i would say everyone should experience in there lives. It is so amazing. I give it 5 Star Plus. You can swing by and get a handcrafted drink and watch some of the best magicians in the world entertain you, on the world famous closeup stage, or you can reserve at spot for the dinner show, which i say is the best. its a whole experience, you get a multi course meal, which is the best. The Chef at Presige is World Renown. He is amazing, and artist with food. The food and the plating is top notch. Im a mac and cheese guy and its the best mac and cheese i have ever had. Also the prime rib is so delicious and mouth watering too. They have so many options for food choices, you can even add more food options if you want more courses of food. the magic in the dinner show is spell binding for sure. the magicians that you see on fool us and on agt and on tv shows, many of them are the magicians on the stage during the theater dining show. the theatre is so intimate and so comfortable. every seat is a good seat. also the decor is so beautiful too. if you go bring your camera, because you are going to take many pictures, trust me. they have many banners of famous magicians from the past. they do an amzing job honoring the giants in magic, and also at the bar area, tv playing with footage of magic greats too . its like disneyland, the staff, bar tenders, servers, back of house, all the house magicians, do a top notch job, they work so hard to provide the best service. Every time i come there, they always exceed my expectations. I love this place so much and this you will love it too. go check it out”

“We had a great dining experience at The Amalfi Llama tonight. The crab cake appetizer was amazing and contained huge pieces of crab. The filet was delicious and so flavorful. The tiramisu was delicious and so light. Our server Valentyn was also excellent. He was so attentive and extremely thoughtful. He anticipated our every need through the evening. We will definitely be coming back in the near future for the food and for the service! Thank you for a very memorable evening! See you again soon!”

“The beans rice and chorizo is always bomb and the flour tortilla amazing!!!!!!! Love it”

“I ordered the Oaxaca (washed) and Puebla roasts for espresso. Both are out of this world! Hands down some of the best coffee I’ve ever enjoyed. I can’t wait to order more! (Photo taken before opening the second bag)”

“Order ahead if you're in a hurry and avoid the wait (although it's totally worth it). The food speaks for itself as the best spicy fried chicken you can get from a chain restaurant (Cane and Kentucky who??). The staff at the Mira Mesa location are awesome too as they are patient, calm and very helpful with any customizations and recommendations too”

“Food was some of the best I’ve ever had! Delicious ceviche and tacos!”

“Massachusetts Mike’s Pizzeria offers great tasting pizza. We ordered 18 inch Hawaiian Pizza and it was freshly made to order. We ate the entire pie between the two of us. We will definitely come back.”

“We tried Mike’s over the weekend & it was absolutely delicious! Definitely would recommend it if you like birria!”

“Very popular spot good food minus the onions”

“Absolutely amazing atmosphere, 10/10 service, and bomb drinks. What more could you want. Easily one of the best tiki bars period.”

“My roommate and I have been coming here for a while, it's easily one of our favorite regular spots. The atmosphere is stylish and gives off great vibes and always feels welcoming. The food is always fresh coming from local California farms. The drink menu is solid with all of the staples and some with added twists. The owners Chris and Jenn are amazing, they and their staff are always kind and provide incredible service. Other points to consider are the burger of the month, a rotating culinary delight often themed and always delicious, and the establishment holds many different events from art shows, drink and paint, trivia and so many others. Honestly, it's always a great place with friendly people. Chris and Jenn are leaders in the community and work to not only provide delicious food, and a great experience but also work hard to make the community better. Would recommend, and do recommend to everyone and anyone. 5/5 stars.”

“Excellent breakfast I had the French toast and it was outstanding . Thank you from Tucson.”

“Ok, I am from NY and love pizza. I am not a NYC pizza snob though and welcome all iterations of 'za! I have to say that this pizza is probably the best I have ever had of its type. They are "Roman" slices, meaning focaccia crust. Variety of slice options are insane with creative combinations that are not only imaginative, but insanely delicious. Slices are cooked upon ordering for supreme freshness. I especially like the Lussuria - prosciutto, black pepper, mashed potato, mozzarella and olive oil. (I NEVER thought I would like mashed potato on a slice, but it's insanely good.) The help here is amazing as well. Caesar was working the oven and he gave great suggestions and explained the product well. Very inviting and definitely steered me in the right direction. Need gluten free? They got it! Will make a GF slice for you right on the spot. I challenge anyone to have just one slice. I had to go back for 2 more. Enjoy!”

“Best korean in New Hampshire! authentic korean. this is not korean bbq, though they do have kalbi. my favorite is soondubu soup, stone pot bibimbap, and japchae. I get it without egg and no meat. i enjoy dining in for the stone pot that crisps the rice, but also enjoy take out. everything is wrapped up good and safe. my family manages a severe nut allergy and eat here safely weekly.”

“Makai Sushi offers a cozy, casual dining experience where the focus is clearly on the freshness of the ingredients. I tried their hapa roll, featuring Aji tuna and crab, and was impressed by how fresh everything tasted. The venue itself is small, with just four tables inside, but the patio provides a more spacious alternative. It’s a counter-service spot, so you order up front and they bring the food to your table—perfect for a relaxed meal. When I visited, the place wasn’t busy, allowing for quick service. A word of advice: the rolls are generous, and the large pieces make it a challenge to eat in one bite. I’m eager to return and explore their sushi burritos next time!”

“My vegan lox and bagel was the 💣!!!!”

“Great burgers, quick service. Good value for money.”

“Usually like their pizzas. Seems like there is no much flavor like before. No taste of spices. But they are very quike and curtious”

“The OFF SHORE TAVERN AND GRILL located on Morena Blvd in Bayshore San Diego is very good place. All of the staff are exceptional. MGRs have welcomed me & all others since day one and continue to provide fantastic service. Doug & Dan just could not try harder to make this establishment succeed any better. Them and all the servers could receive a higher rating as personable and attentive people. They ALL make Everybody welcome . Major Kudos to Doug, Dan, Ramy and ALL of the crew”

“Rosinas is consistently excellent authentic Italian food. The only food downside ( which is why I gave Food a 4 out of 5 rating), is their Ceaser salad...it is consistently bland, really watery, and tasteless...such an unpleasant surprise given that ALL of the other salads are so delicious, and ALL of the other food is delicious. Rosina, PLEASE update the Ceaser salad..it is really awful.”

“Delicious, wonderful, and great customer serve. I’ve never been unhappy. That’s my me-time place to be.”

“supper frash meat wonderfull customer service specaially the lady she is supper nice”

“There was a time when this was my “go to”place for Italian food. Unfortunately after the first owners sold (back in the 80’s or 90’s I think) they went to a “conveyor oven” for cooking pizza. The people who bought Etna’s owned several other Italian restaurants around town and seemed to be successful. Unfortunately they took out a couple of “deck ovens” to streamline the kitchen, like their other restaurants, and quit cooking pizza in those ovens. What they didn’t understand was the pizza bread used to make Etna’s unique pizza was formulated to be cooked in a deck oven. It’s like the difference between a grilled cheese sandwich and a toasted cheese sandwich… it’s just not the same. The caramelization of the sugars in the dough enhanced the overall texture and taste of the pizza when cooked in a deck oven. I’ve lived in San Diego my whole life and have been going to Etna’s since 1976. Etna’s Pizza dough seemed to be the same when the new owners took over and when they changed the way they cooked it ruined the original flavor. I quit going as often as I used to and eventually after several owners later and never going back to using deck ovens the writing was on the wall. The last owners and employees were rude and unattentive. I was hoping they would return to using deck ovens for their pizza but they did not. I tried to explain the reasoning but was rebuffed. So now another San Diego institution has passed into history. The late night (open til 3:00am) seven days a week only Italian restaurant way back when is gone. It’s a shame this new generation will never know the flavors and history of some of these old and iconic family owned and operated businesses.”

“Nico's is the best taco shop in San Diego! When you're craving a delicious taco and horchata, there's nothing better than Nico's.”

“Absolutely the most of the most! The veggies are abundant fresh and crispy. the pork is tender and flavorful and the tiny rice noodles are hot and well cooked. they serve it with large lettuce leaves that you wrap all the goodies up as a Vietnamese burrito. and dip it into a flavorful sauce called fish sauce but it is not fishy and does not taste like fish. Tops! Every dish is tops. and the soups are also fun to try. A fun meal pretty much describes the Saigon Restaurant. Thank you, Victor. He's the top cheese there. I'm so happy this restaurant survived the pandemic.”

“OMG! Had the tamales for the 1st time. We each had 2 but will have 1 next time so good, so filling, so delicious. My mouth waters as I write this review. I'll drive the distance to get more.”

“What a FANTASTIC experience. Our Event Took Place December 21, 2024 at the Harbor Drive location in San Diego . All of our expectations were surpassed by Jeffreys Team. Brandon was very intentional regarding the small details and accommodations which unexpectedly came up. The food was AMAZINGlYflavorful and ALL 13 of us were served together without any delay. I can’t say enough about Rachel who really brought the personal touch and execution to our event. Thank you to those behind the scene as well, everything was OUTSTANDING.”

“Chinese street food in a sit down environment l, most people come to buy things like the smoked duck neck by the pound( which is amazing by the way)or some seasoned veggies.
For me the star is the skewers any and everything is amazing chose between 5 spice spicy extra spicy or sweet and sour for each it doesn't matter they're all awesome. The staff is friendly and helpful everything is made to order BTW and it comes out hot and fast.”

“I went there to eat with a coworker for lunch earlier today. It was my very first time having been there. I was recommended by a couple of my friends. The restaurant was pretty spacious and the staff were very friendly. I ordered the laab seen (ລາບຊີ້ນ) a Lao minced beef salad and the tom khueng nai (ຕົ້ມເຄື່ອງໃນ) a Lao beef innards soup with some sticky rice. Lunch was delicious. I will definitely be going back there again. I will be bringing my mom. She was actually the person that had brought up this place to me before as well. See you again in the near future.”

“Super cute and charming. Like being on a movie in Paris. Delicious finger food appetizer options for happy hour and great pastries too. Felt their team is still a bit getting adjusted since we were waiting to order and no one even noticed us. Also coffee was ready but no one was bringing to our table. Other than that we will absolutely be back. Cute outdoor courtyard with heaters.”

“This was my first time trying this restaurant, and I loved it. We ordered all the dishes and shared among three people, which was plenty for everyone. Everything was full of flavor, and the service couldn’t have been better. We’re already looking forward to coming back to try the brunch menu.”
