  They offer a wide variety of food, with a fewp good vegetarian options to choose from, which is definitely a plus. That said, the service can take a bit of time, especially during busier hours. One of the best things about the place is that they’re open late, and on Saturdays they stay open until 00:00, which makes it really convenient. Wonderful desserts and good draft beers to enjoy! The staff are generally very friendly and polite, but they do seem quite overworked. It feels like the team is stretched thin, and management might want to consider adding a few extra hands. That would probably help speed things up and make the overall service smoother and more relaxed.

  The food was really bad. I ordered a salad and the chicken was so hard I couldn’t chew it, I ended up spitting it into my napkin. The staff was nice, but I was clearly in the wrong place. FYI: the salads come completely drenched in sauce. I’ve honestly never seen a salad served like that in my life. At first I thought maybe the chicken was undercooked, but then I realized it’s more about the overall quality. I wouldn’t eat there again even if it were free. I only went because I happened to be in the area, and if people eat like this regularly… wow

  From start to finish, this was a standout experience. Josiah was an exceptional waiter—attentive without hovering, genuinely funny, and incredibly engaging. He anticipated our needs before we even had to ask, which made the whole meal felt so relaxed. The food was on point: beautifully presented, perfectly timed, and delicious across the board. Everything arrived exactly as it should—hot, fresh, and clearly made with care. You can tell when a kitchen and service staff are truly in sync, and that was absolutely the case here. Great service, great food, and a fun, welcoming atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back—and hoping Josiah is working when we are.

  This was a happy surprise! I Googled "burgers" and this spot popped up. I looked at a few of the menu items and figured it would be alright to take my 8yo to grab some food. Maaaan! I was thoroughly surprised at the attentive wait staff and quality of food! I didn't try anything on tap or local brews or anything just went with a fountain drink. So I'll leave that out. The kids menu was pretty rad! Had plenty to do without being overbearing or annoying! Had 7 entree options (on the Lunch/Dinner menu) with several sides (fries carrots season fruit mashed potatoes) Dessert option and so on. The adults menu was displayed nicely and had good explanations of the items. I went with the Bison+Wagyu Burger and... Wow! It was awesome! The caramelized onions were sweet and the flavor profile was on point! The atmosphere was really home-y... Homie(s) nah but for real it was very comfortable! Even with how large this location is! The whole pace was pretty packed and I could still hear my 8yo talking to me. Our experience was very pleasant! I recommend it to anyone who wants a casual dinner!

  Excelente experiencia de principio a fin. El ambiente es relajado y muy agradable, perfecto tanto para ir con amigos como en familia. El lugar tiene una decoración cálida tipo lodge que invita a quedarse más tiempo del planeado. La comida es deliciosa y bien servida; el menú es muy variado y todo lo que probamos estaba lleno de sabor. Las hamburguesas y los platillos comfort food destacan, y las cervezas artesanales son un gran plus. El servicio fue rápido, atento y muy amable, siempre pendientes de que no faltara nada. Se nota el profesionalismo del personal y las ganas de que tengas una buena experiencia. Sin duda, Lazy Dog es una excelente opción en San Diego para comer bien, relajarte y disfrutar de un gran ambiente. Totalmente recomendable.
