Very very cute spot! Came for HH and drinks. The burgers were okay - not bad just not amazing. The fries were the skinny crispy ones so 10/10 there. The pretzel bites were fabulous but I am a sucker for pretzels! Drink was good. I'll come back to try other menu items for sure.

This was a warm welcome to San Diego! The food and service was incredible! Everything taste amazing but I loved the play on chicken and waffles with that New Zealand pancake! A spot to visit everyone Im in San Diego!

Adam was a phenomenal server & very attentive. The butternut squash dish was incredible, a great recommendation! The ambiance is incredible!

The meal was okay but there wasn’t any standouts. It was a bit hard to get service and we got put outside on a pretty cold night, even though we had a reservation. They were out of the quinoa for the salmon and wouldn’t offer an alternative side, which was disappointing. The Cobb salad was good, as was the burrata starter.

I’ve been coming here for years, always hoping they’ll figure out whatever’s missing—but they never quite do. The space is great: cool layout, nice bar, and solid outdoor options. But the service? Almost never friendly. The food? Decent, but definitely overpriced.
Then there are the little things that add up. For example, today, the patio stools were bike-locked to the railing. In the middle of the day. I get it—maybe theft’s been an issue—but it takes 30 seconds to unlock them during service. That’s just lazy. And honestly, that kind of sums up the experience here: good enough to keep me hoping, but never quite good enough to be anything other than average.

First time dining here and have lived in the neighborhood for almost 3 years and it was definitely worth going to! I had the NZ beef pastries and fries and a mock-tail. Loved the decor too, and ambience!

This was a great place to stop for a quick brunch. We will be back next time we are in town.

Super disappointed. Came for the Cobb salad and it wasn't good. *Tiny* (think moderate appetizer plate). No vinegarette (other than asian) option (nor vinegar) and multiple pieces of chicken were fatty and slimey. And $22!!!

This place is amazing highly highly suggest getting the lamb skewers. Everything I’ve had is good . The wagyu smash burger is definitely not a smash burger.

I ordered their kiwilango. I was expecting that it was just going to be a "burger," but it was so much better than just a burger. It was the best burger I've ever had! I don't think it was just because I was hungry either. The buffalo sauce was much different than just Frank's Red Hot. It tasted like they possibly made their own. My sister ordered the little bitties and they were amazing as well! I loved the pickles that they put in there. They were a very different flavor! My brother-in-law and sister both thought that that was the best burger that they had, too! Just as a side note, I don't normally write reviews.
