Del’s is one of our go-to places for taking our toddler out to dinner! Not only is the food fantastic but they have a great little outdoor play area for small children, perfect for the anti-high chair crowd - would highly recommend to other parents!

Great place to come have a drink, watch a game, and hang out. it is a family restaurant, so you will see kids. Food is delicious!!, mostly BBQ style. Lots of TVs, so no problem seeing a game. SDSU games will always be on.

Ordered the baby back ribs, which were not fall off the bone. They could have used more time cooking. Nothing is desirable about gnawing on a fatty bone that you can’t get the meat off of. We also had the smoked meatloaf, which was a total let down. Thinner slices of a seemingly processed meat - spam-like with a smoky flavor.
Brisket chili was decent. So was the mac and cheese and the jalapeño hominy.
Kids hamburger and fries were good for the kids.
This was our second time here. Overall, we’ve decided it’s not somewhere we need to frequent for food. A lot of money for mediocre plates.
