    Stopped here for a quick meal and left pleasantly surprised by how good the food was, and how amazing the service staff were. Simple, fresh ingredients and and well thought out menu. Server was helpful and attentive without constantly checking in with us. Thanks again Steven!

    If I could give this place 6 stars I would! My family was in San Diego for a quick weekend trip to Sea World and the zoo and my son wanted some BBQ. I just picked this place because it was close to the boardwalk. Not knowing what to expect we walk over to the place. We were welcome by the best waitress I've ever met. Megan is an angel! My youngest has autism and she caught that fact immediately. She suggested we sit away from the crowd to help with the noise. She helped answer questions about the menu and made sure we had everything we needed. I can't speak highly enough about Megan. She needs to be on TV or in movies. She's just amazing! Now the food. Talk about great food. I've had Caesar salads all over the US and the one I had was tied for jest I've ever had. The chicken was tender and seasoned to perfection. My oldest had the pulled pork and she couldn't stop eating it. My first son tackled the monstrous burger, which managed to finish. My youngest had ribs and man did he enjoy them. Finally, the onion rings there are heavenly. If you go for anything, go for the rings. Even as full as everyone was we had to try them and we weren't disappointed. Please go support this local business and say hi to Megan. She'll take very good care of you. Thanks.

    Great GF buns for there sandwich options. Great brisket and pulled pork. Highly recommend the Kuba Sandwich too! Dog friendly patio. Edit - Went back the next day and enjoyed their chicken strips (huge), onion rings (also huge!), brisket chili (superb) and fish and chips. You will Not leave hungry and will enjoy it!
