    Great food! Fish and chips are excellent, cooked perfectly. Very clean nicely decorated interior with a nice patio. Our server Daniel was very attentive, efficient, kind, and friendly. He takes a real interest in his customers and makes one feel glad to be at Karl Strauss

    We recently ate at the Carlsbad location and had a wonderful experience. It was our first time at Karl Strauss so we had plenty of questions .Our server, Renee was fantastic. She told us all about the rewards program and we signed up! We asked her for suggestions from the menu and she was spot on. We enjoyed our meal so much that we are going back with our son. Great atmosphere and service

    The food was good but they are getting a 1 star from for the waitress we had. She completely was ignoring our table that was a party of 10. I finally received my drink 10mins after I finished my food. Then ignored our table for another 20mins or so when we were waiting for check. She also decided to hovered our shoulder as we were paying to She what kind of tip we were gunna give her.

    I was a party of 3 and was given a 20 minute wait time. We attempted to sit at the bar for drinks as we waited. We moved over to the bar where the male bartender had us repeat our beer order several times. The bartender then informed us that we couldn't sit at the bar and needed to wait by the front, after we purchased beers from the bar. As a paying customer, we couldn't sit at the bar. The bar was not busy. After 20 minutes, I asked for the status of our seating as we were seeing parties walking in, without reservations, being seated. I know these parties didn't have a reservations because when they were asked, they said no and the host would sit them immediately. As a party of 6 walked in, I asked the host for the status of our table - he looked shocked, looked around and said our booth just needed to be cleaned off. Instead of cleaning the booth, he decided to sit the party of 6. We decided to walk out. This was on Labor Day - check-in occurred at 6:06PM.

    We came here while visiting LEGOLAND to celebrate our son’s 6th birthday. Unfortunately, what was supposed to be a special birthday dinner ended up being a really disappointing experience. Our host was wonderful, polite, and welcoming. The experience changed once our server came to the table. He was honestly one of the rudest servers we have ever had. There was no introduction or greeting. He simply walked up and asked, “What are you getting?” While we ordered, he barely looked at us or made eye contact and made us feel like we were bothering him just by being there. What was especially disappointing was that he never acknowledged our son, even after we specifically asked if they did anything for birthdays. Throughout the meal, he would walk past our table without checking on us or asking if we needed anything. At one point, my husband had to flag him down just to get his attention and his response was a very rude, “What’s up?!” We are pretty easygoing when it comes to dining out and understand that servers can be busy or have an off day, but the way we were treated made us feel completely unwelcome. It was especially upsetting because we chose to come here to celebrate our son’s birthday while on our LEGOLAND trip. Unfortunately, because of our experience with this particular server, we will not be returning. It’s disappointing that one person’s attitude could overshadow what should have been a fun and memorable birthday dinner.
