    Great, would recommend. We've lived in San Diego most of our lives ( mid-70s ) and just recently noticed how much local we have that we never knew about. After visiting the Jimmy Buffet Margaritaville out in Orlando the other month, we realized we'd never visited our hometown one. Although this Margaritaville is a hotel, not a restaurant, the same kind of food and attention to detail is there. The first fun thing you experience is the dedicated elevator up to the restaurant. It picks up out on the sidewalk, not from within the hotel, which was kind of a surprise. ( I'm a little worried about that from a security point of view. Nothing stops a transient from pushing the button and riding up. ) Once you're up on the 4th floor, you're at the "5 o'Clock Somewhere" rooftop bar. It's great. Nice tables, nice view, even the bar menu was surprisingly far beyond what I ever thought a bar menu would offer. You share space with the hotel's pool but the guests don't seem to mind. The view over downtown and the ballpark is pretty good, too. Somehow I thought this rooftop destination was "the big one" for the hotel but that would be the Landshark Bar & Grill down on the street level, next to the elevator. That's large and looks good too, but if you want quiet seats and a good view, this is the place to be, not downstairs. Our server Thomas did a great job, we really appreciated him.

    Stopped by for a quick HH after the Banana Ball game on a Sunday afternoon. It wasn't too busy and we were seated right away. We ordered the house margaritas, chicken quesadillas, chicken wings and Elote dip. Food was good, standard poolside fare. Margaritas were a good price on HH. Rooftop always a bonus. Can be a little noisy since it's part of the rooftop pool area.

    Love this rooftop bar at Margaritaville Hotel! I used to frequent this place ages ago when I think it used to be J6 at Hotel Solamar. The lovely ambiance remains the same, right in the heart of the Gaslamp Quarter with comfy seating and fun vibes! This ended up being the perfect spot for some early evening drinks the time I came here. I was also hungry and enjoyed some delicious food. The service was friendly and the prices were reasonable. Overall, a fantastic spot to relax and enjoy some cocktails.

    We had a stat at Margaritaville and came here for lunch before checking out. My friend got the Coco Cabana and opted for the "booze in a blender" so she was able to take home the blender cup as a souvenir for an additional $10. The drink was really cute! We both got the 5 o'clock burger, which came with flavorful fries! It's a fun rooftop since they have a pool, cabanas, and cornhole!

    My family & I were staying @ Margaritaville hotel and on the 4th floor rooftop you would find a pool, seating areas, bean bag toss, huge Jenga & bar located up here. The pool are is very small for this size hotel in our opinion. My husband & I came up on the rooftop celebrating our wedding anniversary w/ some drinks on Sat July 19th @ 10:15p & closes at 11p. We were greeted by our amazing bartenders Brett & his coworker (do not remember his name) both of them were amazing, friendly & attentive. Brett was so knowledgeable about the area, spots, drinks & so much more. We were all from Midwest only less than hour from one another & connected very quickly. We ordered their classic large margaritas which were made w/ perfection. We have not had a Margaritaville drinks since our visits to Florida & Vegas. We talked w/ Brett the whole night & glad we came to the rooftop that evening. The next day on Sunday at 6/7p; we redeem our coupons for drinks & noticed the whole vibe of the rooftop was so different compared to the night prior w/ music selection & attentiveness of the bartenders working on this day. Most of them were either on their phones, talking to other workers & or watching a game on their devices. The staff on Sunday need more guidance on customer etiquette which you have guests at the bar. We had our 2 drinks that were made right away but when we needed anything else we did have to catch his or her attention to order anything else. My husband & I were so glad we met Brett & had the experience we had the night prior. Thanks again for our delicious drinks, conversations & tips.

    What a fun, relaxing rooftop bar to go to with some great company! On the side of the hotel entrance, there is an elevator that will take you up to the rooftop. You'll notice that every table has a reservation sign on it -- don't fret! They just do this so that people don't claim all of the tables. Go up to the staff and they will bring you to a spot for your party. This confused me at first but staff were very helpful and attentive. I ordered the Coco Cabana and roasted elote dip. Perfect little order to snack on while enjoying the sunshine!

    Damn near starving after a day of tours and walking around downtown and this was the perfect spot. Rooftop with plenty of seating with a bar. There was a long delay in having someone come and take our order, but the server that took care of us made up for it. He was very nice and down to earth. I ordered wings and fries. The wings were SO good. Fried perfectly, juicy, crispy and flavorful. They really hit the spot. Our server brought out a tray of different sauces to try but I honestly didn't need any. The fries were good as well. I'd for sure come back here for the wings.

    We arrived around 9PM on a Friday and literally no one was there except a few kids in the pool. We walked around, took a few photos, then left. Setup was fun! Lots of different seating areas that were welcoming. The wall mural on the side of the building was beautiful. Loved the lighting.

    You can definitely chill on island time at the 5 o'clock Somewhere Bar in Downtown San Diego! This bar is located on the roof top of the Margaritaville Hotel and you DO NOT have to be a guest to come here. You will need to use their elevator on the corner of sixth avenue to go up to the rooftop bar (you can't miss it!) We arrived around noon just to avoid any or all of the pre-baseball game crowds and we pretty much had the place to ourselves! The vibe was right, music was chill, ambiance felt like you are at a resort! Our server, Lincoln was amazing and funny! He took very good care of us. The food tasted pretty good. My husband and I had chips and dip plus a poolside burger :) Drinks were decent. We will come back :)

    I finally had a chance to visit this place after walking by so many times before. It's the Margaritaville rooftop pool bar on the 4th floor which can be accessed via stairs or an elevator from the main restaurant. I did really like the layout and ambiance, it boasts a large bar and seating/lounge area with cabanas in the pool area. The pool itself was a little smaller than I imagined but is good for cooling off and sippin cocktails. It also appears that regular patrons (non-hotel guests) are also able to use the pool. On this particular day there was a DJ, creating a fun pool party-like atmosphere. I also appreciated the games such as giant jenga and corn hole (note that you have to give your ID at the bar to get the bean bags). The reason for giving 4 starts was my experience with the customer service. I realize it may have been busier than usual but I would expect more attentive service especially on a money-making weekend such as 4th of July. We were told it was open seating and either a waitress would come to us or we could order at the bar. We sat at a couch and during the 5 minutes we were there, numerous waitresses walked right by us without saying a word. We ended up going to the bar to order and despite having 5 or 6 people working behind the bar, didn't receive a greeting or acknowledgement for quite a while. We finally got our drinks which included a land shark beer and the Texan Conga cocktail, both were pretty mediocre. However the cocktail prices were decent compared to the rest of downtown. Upon leaving, the hostess seemed too intrigued by her phone to bid us adieu. In all, I did like this place mostly for the ambiance but they could step up their customer service.

    The perfect vibe for whatever you are expecting from a Margaritaville Resort! Very attentive service, drinks that's don't disappoint and a surprisingly good appetizer menu. Will definitely be coming back.

    Gross lime in my drink.

    Day 1- service is so slow here. We ordered chips, dip and guacamole. Menu stated queso so we thought like melted cheese dip. Nope it's guacamole with chicks of cheese. Chips were so stale and guacamole was terrible. Margaritas were just ok. Say 2. Tried again. Service sucks. Sat at one of the couches because all the pool lounge chairs were taken. No one ever came to take our order. Went to bar to get our own drinks staff looked at us multiple times and never came over. We are staying at the hotel and I'm disappointed in the service here.

My boyfriend and I had been…read moreon a half-day tour beforehand, but I saw that False Idol was near our hotel and I insisted we stop in for a cocktail before calling it a night. I knew it was a speakeasy but he did not. I was trying to double-check on my phone that Craft & Commerce was the right restaurant its housed in (yes) when he tried to jet set off down the block "to keep looking" rather than listen to me. I yelled, "MOTHER!" by accident and then he did truly leave me hahaha. He resurfaced a few minutes later, and then we walked in. It was 5:15 at the time, so 15 minutes after opening. I had NO IDEA how popular this spot was, nor anything about its nation-wide reputation. I actually didn't know that until two days ago when a Yelp-friend at home here in Richmond, Virginia, exclaimed excitedly when I told her we stopped in. The host who greeted us was kind, informed us there had been a line to get in that day, but that they had one barrel left; we jumped on it of course. It was happy hour, so the first cocktail I ordered was dirt cheap at $9. It was the Imperial Hawaiian with gin, rum, lemon, pineapple, and orgeat. I really shouldn't have ordered a second drink after that one, but I did have the classic Saturn later on in the night and it was absurdly good! Definitely my favorite of the two. The moody tiki vibe was so cool and fun. They even had frogs you could play on the tables. We had some fun neighbors too, which livened up the experience even more. We had a great time and both walked out heavily buzzed. We were asleep by 8 that night, but it was worth it!

Once inside seating is first come first served so the place is insanely crowded with people trying to get drinks. Service is a little confusing as the waiters will come up to you with a menu asking for your order instead of an order at the bar type of thing. Once we actually got a seat things were okay. The menu is mostly rum drinks since this is a rum bar however since I'm not the biggest fan I ordered the only thing with tequila on the menu. My drink was actually really good, it was refreshing, not too sweet or strong at all. I just wish there would be more variety.

Instead of checking on my well-being or ensuring the aggressor had left the premises, security targeted and chased me as if I were the problem. It is incredibly disappointing and dangerous for a business's security team to lack the basic situational awareness and training required to identify the actual victim in a situation. I felt entirely unprotected by the staff here. I hope management takes this as a serious sign that their security team needs immediate retraining on bystander intervention and de-escalation, rather than harassing women who are already in vulnerable situations.

Overall, I had a phenomenal experience for my birthday dinner, the music/ambiance was great, service was great, and the food quality for both the meat choices we got, sides (caesar salad, broccoli, and macaroni) we're all SO yummy! I will definitely be back!

    One of the coolest new spots in San Diego in my opinion. This is the original location of the…read moreCasbah, it then languished for years as the Kava Lounge, a strange spot for wooks, and finally it became Kiku Room. Kiku Room has a chic minimalist interior, with polish concrete, metal, and glass as the primary backdrop. The DJ booth is large and separates the front sitting area from a lounge in the back that is draped in deep red lighting. The bartenders are cool and welcoming, the DJs who come through are usually really good, and the lounge is quite comfortable as well. Pretty good price on drinks overall, too. You can get a glass of draft Asahi here for $7, for instance, which is pretty good for a place that's in this DTSD-adjacent area.

The cocktails are just as dialed. Balanced, clean, strong (in a good way), and not trying too hard. They have some great NA options as well. The NA Asahi beer is amazing. You can tell there's real intention behind the bar, which makes the whole experience feel cohesive. Yes, there's usually a line -- but that's what happens when something is this good. I've heard they're working on expanding, which would be amazing because the space deserves to hold more people without losing that energy. Five stars. For the music. For the drinks. For the vibe. I'll happily wait in line for this one.
