Kathryn M.

The pretzels and cheese was fantastic. My meatloaf was good and my husband's chicken was great. The kids chicken tenders had a funny flavor like hot sauce so our granddaughter ate some of Papas chicken. Overall pretty good, but would like to see the chicken tenders changed. We'll go again.

Fantastic bar with a lively vibe, great ambience, and top-notch service. There are also 3 ping pong tables that you can play on for free. Really enjoyed the cocktails and the entrees. Highly recommend! Update: visited again and the experience was just as good. Had the Roasted Salmon and the Fried Chicken, and the food was excellent! Two Birds One Stone is a great cocktail - check it out!

We come here every year when we are attending spring baseball for the Padres and the cubs! We arrived at 5:00 p.m. and it took an unusual amount of time due to low staff to be seated. We ordered our favorite steak dish and the kids had their burger and chicken fingers. Lots of young people and the drinks were following, my table love top shelf Pepsi! Ping Pong tables and sweet and sour wings makes for a great night. Now we head back to San Diego and look forward to the next year! Features: No masks on the staff, lots of open tables during rush of 5pm.... they need more staff!
