“The quintessential, West Coast, go to for burgers and fries. I would rate the burgers close to number one of any that I've ever had. Coming from a meat Capital in the Midwest, where burgers and fries are a regular staple in pubs, fast food and specific franchises, In and Out Burger must be an essential stop for your burger craving throughout California. The staff has a smile on their faces and is exceptional. Very clean accommodations. The food is not just what you get but exceeds every expectation. Order your burger animal style. It's one of the secret menus. Makes things fun and implies that you are an Insider. Oh, and the price was amazing! EnjoyVegetarian options: There are veggie options and french fries, but not necessarily the place I'd go to on a vegetarian dietParking: Typical Mall parking. This particular location was in Santee.Kid-friendliness: Lots of families thereWheelchair accessibility: Easy access for wheelchairs with accessible tables“

“The food here is pretty darn good. It's not inventive, but it is a great place to get a standard American breakfast. Service can be a little slow when dining during busy times and sometimes getting a table can take a few minutes. I wouldn't come here when you are starving, but you definitely won't leave here hungry.“

“I prefer Anny's Fine over Five Guys in my mouth.I have visited here a couple of times as well as their Kearny Mesa location. This dining room area is relatively smaller in comparison, but the neighborhood restaurant has enough space to accommodate several families and beer buddy groups. There are also common area patio tables within the Santee Trolley Square food court area by the MTS station. Ample parking spaces too.Received a friendly greeting as I walked in. Checked out their chalkboard menu as well as the giant printed wall menu. Noticed some craft beers on tap.Took me a moment to decide on my to-go order because of the menu choices and options. Wifey got a Sand Dune and our Mini-Meez got their cheeseburger kids meals. This time I tried their Korean bbq steak sandwich. This craveable snack is hefty and could be a messy knife-and-fork meal for some to share. The bread held up well against the cheesy melty peppers and onions in the to-go box. Tender steak bites were tasty. For whatever reason my buds tasted more sweet teriyaki flavors over savory bulgogi vibes. Mini-me 2.0 wanted to check out the Bacon Cheese Fries. It's a good portion. I'd probably enjoy them more at dine-in because the fries don't stay crispy after getting smothered and covered for the car ride home.Parking: Shared parking lot at mall and trolley stationKid-friendliness: Kids menu available“

“Very good food with a lot of sports channels of various types on simultaneously, including x games and skating competition. The only thing I wish is that the salmon serving was either a bit larger, or came with a side, because I was still hungry when I left. So I felt slightly jipped. But the food is very good. This place is more than a sports bar. It's good healthy choices and salads. The burgers and fry selections are good too. J52 even has fried Brussels sprouts with plumb sauce. Also very good. The fried zucchini is always perfect too.“

“Raising Cane’s is one of my favorite fast food locations in SD! The Cane sauce alone is what I come for. Delicious with the chicken tenders. However both the sweet tea and lemonade are also delicious, and their Texas toast is amazing as well! I’m not the biggest fan of coleslaw, so I just order extra fries instead. Only downside is that you have to pick up your order near the cash register when you dine in, but it is fast food after all ?.“

“I preordered my pizza for a party to pick up before the place even opened and he was on time and helpful in bringing the pizzas out since we ordered the "giant" sized thin crust. The pizza was great - not too dry, not too much sauce and cut into perfect portions! We needed to order another pizza as we ran out of food so fast. The owner was able to get me a pizza ready in 20mins for pick up and also offered to deliver. It was only 2 minutes from where our party was so wasn't a big deal to run over and get it.We will be coming back here again.“

“Sat at the bar on Friday, SADIRA was super awesome. She gave us time to sit and settle then ask about drinks. She was super friendly and personable. She kept steady conversations with most people sitting at the bar but not overbearing. The gentleman DAVE she worked with that night was also on his A game, although, we did not have the privilege of interacting with him much.We’ve been here a handful of times and it’s almost always a good experience.“
