“I've been on a burger kick so my husband has been taking me to all his favorite places. I ordered the balboa burger and it was delicious ! Along with the fries , I really enjoyed the aioli sauce. I'm excited to come back and try out the different burgers. Everyone who works here is great ! It's a pretty cool place to drink some beers and play some pool.“
“Love this place. Their BBQ chicken pizza is my favorite. It's always the perfect crisp. I love all the toppings in this pizza. Very consistent. And their sweet chili & lemon pepper wings are really good. Packed with flavor. Tried the wagyu sliders but they were NOT a hit. Wasn't flavorful, kinda blain, basic and were so sad the tater tots had no flavor at all. But hella crispy. Atmosphere is cool, tvs and little bar top. The staff is ok. Overall, I'll keep going back.“
“1st time ever here. My sister bragged about it forever until finally after a loooooong day at Legoland celebrating my son's 3rd birthday we decide to eat there for dinner. I ordered the Loaded baked potato burger...BOOOOMB!!! Sooo delicious I wanna go back for more. Anyway, my son was asleep when we got there and literally when he peaked and woke up. Our waitress Jacqueline paid attention and got him a little brownie to sing to him....he was soooo happy. Jacqueline really made our night with great food suggestions and attentive to with my family. Highly recommend it there. Definitely going back...thank you soooo much for a great finish to a great day“
“Had a great time at Goodbar. The bar staff was awesome, everything was reasonably priced. They had a food truck that was really good and that made it fun. We happen to be they're on a night they had music. The band was all original music and it was great.“
“Best in the city for vegan white pizza!! I was super exhausted to cook one day and decided to look for a vegan pizza place and oh my, this was the best place I ever tried! I called barely 5-10 minutes before closing but they were so nice they stayed back an extra 15 minutes after their closing time to make sure I got my order! (When I say I was exhausted, it was an under statement so it TOTALLY made my day!!) I am soooooo waiting to go back next week with friends! The pizza was nice and fresh, delicious and for someone that doesn’t like artichokes or olives, on this white pizza they were soooo GOOOOOOODDDDDDD! I a full hundred percent recommend this place.“
“Stopped by Bottle Rocket after reading all the excellent reviews. It was a Wednesday night which is Wings night (6 wings for $6) so decided to give those a shot. We were welcomed immediately upon entering by the staff and found the service throughout the visit to be prompt and friendly. You have to go to the bar to place your food orders and are given a number to place on your table for delivery. We ordered two of the 6 piece wings as well as a cheeseburger and an order of fries. The wings came out piping hot but a little bit overcooked. The bbq sauce was really good but the mango habanero was more on the sweet side than spicy which was disappointing. The burger looked really appetizing but was a bit average in comparison to similar places we frequent. Fries were crispy and tasty. Bottle Rocket also has an excellent selection of beers available. I would be more apt to visit them in the future for drinks than for their food because the service was super friendly and the vibe of the place was laid back and fun in general.“
“I have found a legitimate broker who has helped me in so many ways in the aspect of forex & cryptocurrency. At first, I was really skeptical that it won't work but I still kept the faith going until I saw a recommendation about Mrs Craig Vanessa who changed my financial status from grass to grace. Once again I'm really grateful for your help and support towards me and my family in this tough time of the year.

“Great for what it is. Was surprised at how good their tacos were. We kept ordering even though we didn't need more. lol - just had to wave our servers down to get refills and food when sitting at a booth. Was the middle of the day on a Saturday and not too busy; not a big deal, just play offense with you needs. ?“
“Dig the werewolf- we've been there tha last 2 times in town good food and atmosphere- really good service and selection- good bloody Mary also- karaoke every night they said- I'll have to go back and sing next time we're in town- I'll bring my werewolf mask!“
“This was my second time going to Desi's after being introduced by a friend and let me tell ya, this place is my go-to for a drink. The bartender Gar recognized me after being there only ONCE and he is super cool. I ordered my usual Jameson and coke while we talked about when the cold weather would let up. I also nibbled on some potato wedges which are amazingly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. That's when I spied that they also make Detroit style deep dish pizza. I've never had deep dish and decided to try it for the first time. I kid you not, my taste buds did acrobatics. The crust had a nice crunch but also was springy and soft. The sausage and peppers mixed well with the sauce. Come here if you want to experience a cozy place to eat and drink. You won't be disappointed.“
“We were staying in San Diego for a family vacation. We are driving around, just enjoying the sights, and we were very hungry. We noticed the restaurant and decided to try it out. So this is a New Zealand Twist on burgers and other dishes. We order the hogs and hefers burger and chicken pot pie. The Red Ale was also good. Customer service was decent. There was not much follow-up after we ordered our food or when the food arrived. The atmosphere was kind of like an outdoor bar but relaxed. Prices were decent. The food was very delicious and there were no issues there. Obviously, parking is difficult since it's right next to the beach, but there is neighborhood and paid parking lots close by.Parking: There is local parking in the neighborhood, on the Main Street and there's also very expensive paid parking lots.“
“It was my first time ever coming to this place and it was a really busy night, however the bartender Jason made us feel right at home he made time for us throughout the night even though he had a full plate the experience was lovely drinks food and laughs. Definitely coming again.“
“Me and my girlfriend came for the first time today and we had a blast! Tons of the people from community were at the bar and we met some new friends everyone spoke highly of the place as well. Matt was our bartender and took care of us exceptionally. We had a couple margaritas and wings and all of of it was super tasty. If you're looking for a good place to grab a bite have a drink and relax this place is perfect!“
“Came here because other reviews mentioned they are famous for their fish tacos. So glad we did. My husband got the Baja fish tacos and said they were good. He would rate them 4.5 stars. I got the mahi fish tacos. They were perfect. The fish fell apart when eating it but didn’t crumble- It was cooked perfectly. Also got the Friday special of oysters. Literally cannot beat the price, $6 for 6 oysters! The oysters were not “cheap” either in regards to quality. Our waitress said they were special ordered. Not sure if they are always ordered from the same location but we had some from BC and they were fantastic.It did take a little while for anyone to take our order. It was seat yourself but order taken at table. However, when we did finally order, our food came out very quickly afterwards. In the meantime we were able to enjoy the beautiful views of the ocean on the outside balcony.“
“Visiting nearby from Honolulu. Was hungry after enjoying the UCSD WOW festival. Stopped into Balboa's for a quick peek at the NCAA Men's final 4. Special was Chicken Shawarma with fries for 12 bucks. Large portion great fries. Was surprised how tasty and clean-tasting the food was...Extensive Beer selection on tap was great. Service was friendly and attentive, especially Aidan and Kory. Aidan is hysterical with a grand sense of humor...hoping to return before I head home. The local and friendly atmosphere not what I was expecting nor how many people were there as appeared to be a complete hole-in-the wall. Delighted to learn a family run establishment...no corporate stuff here...Check Balboa's Tap House out. Nothing fancy but a great value.“
“Burgers and Sunday Brunch are absolutely what you should go here for! Longhorn is a great local restaurant. The small kitchen turns out some of the most amazing quality bar food. They have a fantastic rotating craft beer selection. Sit at the bar and make friends with Matty - he's the best!“
“Great spot to have drinks with a friend or meet a first date! Love the owner Scott really down to earth guy. The DJ Corey is cool too, he will always get to you even if it's later in the night. He makes sure he calls up everyone that requests their song and is great at mixing up the playlist to satisfy all music tastes. However, be prepared to wait your turn for karaoke nights. If it's the weekend and very busy they may not have time to get to you by closing time. They will let you know when it's your turn tho and call you up to the stage. The lyrics are also displayed on a big screen and a tv in front of you. Overall great experiences here and fun times. Adrian, Matt, Charlie, Lexie or Alexa, Erik, and Aaron are all great bartenders and have very good communication and social interactions. Really positive vibes here and good for anyone looking to grab a few drinks while watching the beach across the street. :) Sincerely, Jessie J. Thackrey“
“Food was great - Adrian was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and made our experience so much fun just by her personal interaction and openness! Sunset celebration was awesome with great music and shots on the house for those at the bar ! Lots of fun! We will go again for sure!! Great Job!!Parking: We have had to park on the street down the block before - but TOTALLY worth it!!“
“Visiting San Diego this past weekend and meeting up with my long time friend. He recommended this place cause it was on the way to the airport. Place gives you definite dive bar vibes in a Cheers settings. Place was filled with locals enjoying a San Diego morning. Got there early and our waitress greeted me quickly and took my drink order as I was waiting for my friend. Ordered the moco loco breakfast-food came out hot and was very tasty. Got the chance to catch up with my friend and noticed how busy the place got but the patrons were greeted quickly and lead to a place to sit. Have lived in CA my whole life - driven past this place but never tried it. It is truly a great local place and will make a point to visit again.“
“I can't say enough how great the service was and the food! My wife and I had multiple items and everything was delicious. Liz the bartender and chef Jason were awesome and made us feel right at home! 10 out of 10 must try when your in North Park.“
“Tracy is absolutely the BestJuan is awesome at cookingToday, whoever cooked the corn beef, it was the Best cut of meat, and cooked to yummy. I Loce this place, just be you, come and enjoy neighbors. But, for me Tracy is why I come back.lol“
“In the realm of morning sustenance, I dare proclaim an epiphany: behold, a culinary sanctuary worthy of ardor. With each bite of their breakfast burrito, a symphony of flavors danced upon my palate, harmonizing with the ambiance enveloping me.From the moment of entry, greeted by an atmosphere redolent with warmth and conviviality, to the tender ministrations of the staff, every aspect bespoke a dedication to excellence. Gabriela, a paragon of hospitality, graced our table with her presence. Her attentiveness bespoke not only of professional acumen but of a genuine reverence for the patronage bestowed upon her domain.I have found not merely a breakfast respite but a sanctuary of culinary delight, where gastronomy and hospitality converge to orchestrate an experience unparalleled in its splendor.“
“A place to get burgers & bait and beer while you're fishing. Although technically, you don't have to be fishing to eat here. If you're walking by or you're in the area and it's a nice day, it's a nice place to just grab a little bite to eat, especially on a nice day.The prices are a tad high but let's just say having a burger in the sunshine is totally worth it.Parking: Plenty of free parking. It's at a park right next to a large music venue and when there's no music, there's plenty of parking.“
“In the cozy ambiance of Boegey's Pub and Grill, a sanctuary of kindred spirits in San Diego's heart, a fleeting yet profound connection unfolded. There, by the taco stand, stood a girl in a black dress, her presence a captivating blend of mystery and allure, mirroring the night's enchanting potential.This New Year's Eve, as the world seemed to stand still, I, a traveler from afar, found an unexpected sense of home. The pulsating music intertwined our destinies, creating a mosaic of ephemeral encounters and shared joys.I carry with me the memory of the hardworking staff and the generous manager, whose kindness illuminated the evening. To the girl by the taco stand and all the wonderful souls at Boegey's, I extend my deepest thanks and best wishes for a year filled with happiness and beautiful connections. Happy New Year, and God bless.BestGD“
“You will love this dive bar. Great food (in particular wings, fish tacos, burger special) In fact I'd say this bar has oddly delicious bar food. Also friendly cool bartenders and best prices around. Cold beer and no bullshit. The crowd can look freaky but they're all secretly nice people and friendly. This has been my favorite bar for years, even when I lived in 92109 and 92103. Outdoor and indoor seating, dogs okay and kids okay til 8 pm. Def the best dive bar in OB and one of my all time favorite bars for life.“
“Panama 66 offers a vibrant atmosphere that's hard to beat, complete with live jazz bands, a wide array of local craft brews, and a decent food selection. The ambiance sets the perfect backdrop for a chill evening with friends or a laid-back date night. While my tuna melt did taste a bit off, the friendly staff and overall great vibe more than made up for it. Whether you're a jazz enthusiast, a beer aficionado, or just looking for a cool hangout spot, Panama 66 delivers on all fronts. It's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.“
“Always a great choice to meet up for a cocktail with friends. While we love the inside atmosphere, we all prefer the great outdoors these days and Tivoli has ample outdoor seating for our needs. Prices are not over the top, and it’s a great corner to people watch…especially during Halloween and Comic Con.“
“I would rate the overall experience at 10Excellent food great location, friendly staff, I had the fish taco plate with the best shrimp taco ever and I worked my way through both types of fish breaded fish taco was excellent as well. A friend had the burger and it was excellent. Patti looks better than average, so did the fries.We highly recommend this placePlus, they just expanded the size so now it’s twice as big! Without suffering, the quality of service or food. ServiceAdrienne, no I’m gonna ask her yeah we want to give you a good review but I wanna make sure I had your name right how Was our server, and she was great“
“This is one of my new favorites. Great burgers, great atmosphere, and overall very pleasant experience. I have gotten burgers delivered several times and have always enjoyed them but this was my first time in. Place is small but very homey and inviting. The server who I think was also the owner, was pleasant and made us feel right at home. There were four of us and we all got burgers except for one of us and she got a homemade mac and cheese. Lots of great stuff on the menu, but the hits were the burgers. First of all you start out with the type of ground meat you would like, then the the weight starting at a third pound up to three quarters of a pound, then lots of toppings or what I called innings to go either on top of your burger or inside your burger. The toppings or innings are endless everything from the basic typical burger stuff to some pretty exotic stuff. They are Char-Broil burgers. Looks like all burgers come with one side and not just french fries there seemed to have been about 7 or 8 different things you could get on the side. Food was quick and hot presented well and delicious. They had what seemed to be an extensive bourbon selection, but none of us were drinking. But the walls were filled with lots of liquor. The owner/server, had a couple chihuahuas running around greeting people as well. Don't let this sway you from not going in, they were very pleasant very clean and very happy dogs making it feel even homeier. I would imagine if it's really busy the puppies do not have free roam. But it was a very nice addition. Someone else brought in their dog later as well. I was very happy as the three people I brought with me were from out of town and they raved about it as well. I am certain that the next time they are in town and want a burger that is where we are going. Very happy that they are close to me as I will be back again soon and tell others as well. A word of caution is that this place is upstairs and does not seem to be accessible to wheelchairs, however, there is a small dining room downstairs as well and I would be willing to bet that you can get served down there as well. The bonus to being upstairs is that we went just before sunset and had a wonderful view of that as well. Give this place a try if you like Char-Broil burgers and good atmosphere. There is a lot of other stuff on the menu so even if you got friends that you're going with that don't want a burger there's plenty of Americana fare to choose from. This place is good for kids there is a child's menu.“
“Love this place!!! I have been coming here since 2014 for March Madness and LeAnn and her staff have always taken care of me and our crew who come about 20 deep! The drink are flowing, the food is excellent and the service is outstanding!!!!!“
“I decided to order takeout here because the Mr. Peabody's in Encinitas wasn't picking up & I live closer to this location on Friars Rd than the one located next to Moonlight Beach. Based on their menu, I ordered the NY Steak because it comes with potatoes and salad for under $20. The food was great but nothing mind-blowing. It's just your average diner food with super nice staff. Compared to the Encinitas location, the waitresses here look calm and relaxed. It was also a lot brighter & quieter so you're able to look at the menu without squinting. Unfortunately, they don't have live music in this location but they did have the basketball game playing on the television so I'll definitely be back to watch a game here sometime soon. Price: $$ Location: Close to Fashion Valley Mall Service: Friendly and attentive Parking: Plenty of spots after 8 pm Recommendations: I would go here for the chill & friendly bar atmosphere. They do cater to an older crowd.“
“Omg I wish I had a picture of the chicken nugs ...let me tell you, I can no longer get chicken nugs or tenders anywhere but HERE for the rest of my life lol. They are brined in pickle juice, then dipped into buttermilk batter and fried!!!! It's out of this world. They arcade games, pool, ping pong, tons of games, a lot of fun! I cannot wait to come back! Definitely worth driving out of PB into Downtown!Kid-friendliness: Before 8pm I believe... Not sure... Our kids were at home! Date night“
“We recently stopped into Bootlegger for a bite and a beverage. Shasta waited on us and was an excellent server. We decided to split a build a burger and ordered a beer each. The burger was enormous and delicious - Thursdays they are on special and you can get as many toppings as you like with no up charges. It’s a good deal. The fries were a bit disappointing because they weren’t crispy enough and kind of soft/limp. It wasn’t super busy the day we went but I imagine during baseball season or weekends it gets pretty crowded there. Bootlegger has a large selection of brews on top. We will definitely be back again.“
“This place is cute and fun! Definitely for frog lovers, although I forgot to ask if they serve frog food. We had the quesadillas, cheeseburger, and Key Lime Pie. The cheeseburger was so-so. The quesadilla was amazing! It was encrusted with a cheese wrap around the tortilla fixings, and made it super crunchy and flavorful. The Key Lime Pie was perfect, so cute in its own individual serving, and lots of graham cracker crust. Very fresh.“
“I love this hidden Gem.Never had a bad exp. Always friendly clean looking employees. Good is fresh tasting and its very mod. Priced. Cant say enough goodthings about this place. My first time i had a waiter by name of Luke. He was very attentive and super patient. I go now for the fiod and vibes but cane back cuz of the service he showed. Great place“
