“Sometimes they have food. Mostly that which a regular brought in to share. There diamond pool tables. Best players I've played against so if you go for a challenge, like I do, you will only be disappointed by the wait. Not always long, but it is mostly. With it for the experience.

They take cards now. Not a great selection of booze or beer. Basically lower end and someone l domestics.“

“We made the drive from LEGOLAND since this place had the best reviews in the area for pizza. It was definitely worth the drive. Louie, the owner, made some excellent pizzas for the family (including some picky kids) to enjoy. He knew the regulars by name, which is always a great sign.

The pizza was excellent, a thinner and crispy crust with a good amount of toppings. The pepperoni was perfectly caramelized with a bit of crunch, just the way I like it. Great service too, with a quaint atmosphere.

I will go out of my way to come again on our short trip from out of town.

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of kids and families dining here. Lots of TVs to distract them with too.“

“Islands is one of those iconic chain restaurants that has truly stood the test of time, consistently delivering mouthwatering dishes that keep customers coming back for more. Our experience was made even better by our server, Nina, who was simply fantastic. She made sure we had everything we needed, seamlessly enhancing our dining experience.

We kicked things off with a heaping plate of nachos, and let me tell you, they were a game-changer. Picture crispy chips generously smothered in gooey melted cheese, topped with fresh tomatoes, zesty jalapeños, a dollop of sour cream, creamy guacamole, and a side of flavorful salsa. Each bite was a delight, especially with the extra cheese that pooled on the plate, perfect for scooping up with the bottom chips.

The drinks were nice and cold, hitting the spot. Then came our two burgers, cooked to perfection—juicy and full of flavor. And what better way to wrap up such a delicious meal than with a rich, decadent mud pie? It was the cherry on top of an already fantastic experience.

With impeccable service, scrumptious food, and prices that won’t break the bank, Islands continues to impress—making it a must-visit spot for any burger lover!

Vegetarian options: Almost every menu item can be made vegetarian.

Parking: The oversized parking lot is shared with the other businesses. But there always seems to be enough parking spaces.“

“We went to Frankies last night to watch the US v Netherlands World Cup game. The food and the service were outstanding but we had to leave at half-time because it was so hot in the bar. It was 83 degrees (per the thermostat in front of us) and no AC or fans. Definitely not worth going to the bar just due to the heat. Will be ordering the food to go because it was so amazing! Will try the bar again in the winter.“

Green Dragon Tavern & Museum Sports Bars • $$

“The food is as good as it looks! I couldn’t believe it when my parents asked me if I wanted to go to a Revolutionary War tavern replica & museum near the beach in northern San Diego. Like, huh? But the building reminded me of growing up on the east coast, and the museum reminded me of how lucky we are to have this country & those who fought for it. I loved the cozy interior with brick and wood. My parents are regulars, so they know the server, and he was super nice. They have a great Old Fashioned, and we all got the Seafood Trio (mine with double cod). The fingerling potatoes were to die for. It was all delicious. Amazing Caesar salad, too. Definitely had leftovers. Excited to go back for their happy hour. Can’t wait to try wagyu sliders, mussels, and clam chowder. Seriously, it all sounds good. Definitely worth a trip! And you’ll be back to try it all 😁“

“We love Shores. With football now starting, it is not so great. It is known as a Packers bar. Today there were 6 Packers fan and the rest of the other team fans had to listen to the loud Packers game. Also, one bartender saved seats for over 2 hours for people who didn't show up. That is not right for everyone who shiftwd seats to accommodate the regular guests. Not "shore" if we'll be back during football. I hope Pete figures it out.“

“Good atmosphere, but it was busy when we went because they had $9 unlimited bowling. We only went to play pool. There were only 2 tables available and we had to wait to pay but we didn't mind. We just watched people bowling. I would go again, but probably just to bowl. Pool was a little pricey, in my opinion.
Didn't have food, just a cocktail from the bar.“
