SoCal Kitchen + Bar

Everything was very good except my drink. It was $16 and one of the worst cosmos I've ever had.

I had an incredible experience thanks in no small part to the wonderful bartender, Satia. Absolutely no notes! When she heard that I wasn’t able to drink, she took it upon herself to whip up a personal mocktail for me. Great appetizer recommendations. We had the crispy rice and Brussels sprouts. Definitely would recommend and ask for Satia at the bar!

Awesome brunch!! From the moment we walked in the door, we lived the decor and ambiance, even as they opened for brunch Sunday morning. We had the best server and experience throughout our meal for a family and friends gathering!! Everyone raved about their food, so delicious! Baked oysters and cinnamon roll were among the faves! Well done!

Went here for happy hour and had Ben as our server. The was amazing and food/drinks were delicious!! Great atmosphere and upbeat staff!

Steak was cold. Drinks took a while to arrive. Was disappointing because under the Delmar brand I’ve frequented often and was always a 10/10.

We celebrated my 28th birthday here — it was my first time at SoCal. Our waitress was absolutely everything and the food was 100000/10. We had the wok fried shrimp, baked oysters, brussel sprouts, and the Dynamite sushi roll. We can't wait to go back for more.

Schedule this for a company outing with a large group. First time there food options were fantastic.Quality of the food was fantastic and the portion size was pleasing. Highly recommend

Food was delicious - service was top notch. The bartender who’s name began with a J made a terrible mistake - forgot to place my food order. Understandable as the bar was more than crowded, yet the bartender was more than apologetic and made up for it. The amazing food was also a +1. Everyone’s human.

Great food, excellent service, and a cozy atmosphere. Street parking is scarce, but there is a parking garage about a block away that the restaurant will validate for you.

Recently went for happy hour with friends & ordered a bunch of food and drinks. Drinks took 25 minutes to come. (The place was empty) and then the food took a solid hour. And one of us didn’t receive our meal until we were checked out and ready to go. (An hour and 15 minutes later) we didn’t receive any sorry or acknowledgment of the lack of service and also over heard a server explaining to a trainee “that happens a lot” so disappointing because the food was good and it wasn’t crowded at all. Wouldn’t come back.

We just absolutely love this restaurant! Special shout out to the woman who sat us, sorry I didn't get your name but thank you so much for getting us an amazing seat! Also, our server was amazing, especially given how busy she was as she had a couple of other big tables. Our drinks were amazing, wife had the pineapple spicy margarita, it was so good. Rum runner was very good too. Wife had the grilled cheese French dip, she did give me a bite and it was probably the best grilled cheese I've ever eaten. I got the barbacoa tacos, they were equally amazing! Finished up our dinner with the tres leche, nothing like a great desert to close out our meal. Thanks for the great dining experience!

This was my second visit in a month, and had different drinks, menu items, and servers between the two visits. Both visits were amazing! The drink and food were outstanding, and the servers were just the right amount of attentiveness while not rushing us and allowing us to enjoy the table a good amount of time for a great night out. The room is beautiful, and moderate to energetic, but you can easily hold a conversation without having to raise your voice at all. It has become my new fave, and expect to return often!
