“Solana Beach Kitchen was amazing. Each dish was spectacular. Loved the Surf & Turf Nachos, the Calamari was the best I have ever had. The Mac n Cheese with brisket was a recommendation from the fabulous Tracy and it was incredibly delicious. Everything was so good that we returned the next night!! Highly recommend SB Kitchen.“

“These guys are awesome! I was in a time crunch and asked if they could recommend me something that could get me out in time for my train. They not only got it out with plenty of time to spare, it’s delicious, extremely well priced, and loved the whole kitchens hustle. Great atmosphere, families, couples, a mixed crowd- all great vibes. The bartender recommended a wonderful strawberry marshmallow sour and all around it was great for a Friday afternoon stop. 10/10“

Kai Ola Sushi Brewery • $$
112 S Cedros Ave, Solana Beach

“Local Roots Solana Beach: clean, modern, and friendlier than a dog at a barbecue! Work or play, have it your way with rotating kombucha and chef's sushi menu. Wifi, TVs and indoor outdoor space make it ideal for people watching or mingling. Just a heads up, it's a bit pricer with fewer options than nearby spots like Station Sushi, but hey, quality ain't cheap! ?? ??

Also agree with other reviewers, James is a cool guy. ?“

Modern Times Far West Lounge Brewery • $$
470 S Coast Hwy 101, Encinitas - 4.05 miles

“I was just looking for a place to drink sour beer. That's all. You can imagine my utter joy when I discovered this place not only has FIVE sours on draft but also a menu that is more than 50% vegan. I tried all of the sours. The standout for me was the blueberry muffin, which tastes exactly as described. At the recommendation of the bartender, I got the crunch wrap, which was absolutely delicious. I also made a friend with the woman sitting next to me and got to try the pretzel with queso and mustard (also completely vegan), and that was phenomenal. If I lived in the area, this would definitely be a regular hangout spot.“

“My husband and I have been here for the very first time and we immediately fell in love with this place. The staff is amazing, they know how to treat you and make you feel at home. Alice is very passionate about her job and we loved her homemade desserts sooo much. A special mention to Michele, a very young yet extremely professional waiter, who contributed to create a cozy and pleasant atmosphere! As Italian, I can say it's hard to find place such Alice's where you feel so vividly the warm of our country. We will definitely come back!“

Duck Foot Brewing Miramar Brewery • $

“Lots of variety and options on this menu. They brew fun beers instead of the seemingly more common, easy-drinking IPAs. I’m looking for something that tastes like I’m chewing pine needles, and Duck Foot has that (among other, less intense beers too!).

Dog-friendly patio and usually has a food truck. We went home a 4-pack to go!“

“I got the kebab fries, they were very tasty and the staff was super friendly. If anything, the prices are a bit high but I guess that’s just inflation and the cost of living. So it’s definitely a cool little spot but almost everything is $20+. But the taste of the food is worth it :)“

I don’t drink beer but the people that do seem to enjoy their selection. They don’t have a ton of seating indoors so when it gets busy you got to be prepared to park it outside . My favorite are their hot sandwiches .“

Harland Brewing - One Paseo Brewery • $$
3718 Paseo Pl Suite 1300, San Diego - 3.42 miles

“Absolutely Outstanding Experience at Harland Brewing & URBN Pizza! I recently hosted a birthday party for about 60 people at the Harland Brewing outdoor patio, and I can't say enough great things about the experience. The entire Harland staff went above and beyond—they moved and added tables, provided extra plates, turned on the outdoor heaters, and made sure all my guests were comfortable and well taken care of. Their service was fast, friendly, and incredibly thoughtful throughout the evening.

We also ordered pizza and salad from URBN next door, which was a huge hit. The food was delicious, came out quickly, and paired perfectly with Harland’s excellent selection of beers.

I would highly recommend Harland Brewing and URBN Pizza for any event or gathering. Fantastic staff, great atmosphere, and top-notch hospitality.“

“It’s been a while since I’ve visited a Board & Brew location, but I came by this one in the UTC mall yesterday with my brother. I had a Turkey club and it was pretty solid—everything tasted fresh and there was a reasonable amount of meat. The secret sauce they give on the side kind of reminds me of a tangier, thinner-bodied In-N-Out spread. Wait time wasn’t bad, although the store was busy, and it was also fairly clean inside. Overall a decent spot for a decent sandwich, but nothing to shout about necessarily.“

La Costa Wine Winery • $$
MB, 7750 El Camino Real, Carlsbad - 6.29 miles

“Visited for a special event dinner with Epoch winery from Paso Robles. The owner of the store was exceedingly gracious and friendly and the event was a great success. The store has a pretty wide range of wine offerings as well as local craft beers, with several exclusive/harder to get wines as well as more mainstream options. The store is admittedly "Paso-centric" in their overall portfolio, but the prices are consistent with what you would see at the wineries. They also have cheeses for sale at the front counter.“

Definitely one of my favorite spots at UCSD.“

“We ordered carne asada burrito, Buffalo wings and chicken flautas. They were all tasty. The carne asada was very meaty but a bit tough for me. Wings were a bit small but flavorful.

I have never seen chicken flautas look like short fat egg rolls before. Deep fried flour tortilla gave it a nice crispness except there was very little chicken inside. Still very good and interesting. I especially love that they had lettuce, pico de gallo, sour cream and guacamole on side. Very rare do you see this combo of topping.

Inside is divided by the bar area and dining area. Looks like a hip place to be after work.“
