    The classic
    Bertha B.

    Yupe! 5 stars still their breakfast sandwiches are so delicious! I work in this building so I get to be a customer often and literally everything on the menu is flavorful especially the breakfast! The spot is well kept up and clean and organized and the cashier and cooks and everyone are always so polite and professional.

    Big Breakfast Burrito with Bacon, egg, cheese, potato
    Melissa T.

    Everyone working was very nice and polite! They have lots of fresh grab and go items as well as hot food. The breakfast burrito with bacon was good. Scrambled eggs, cheese, bacon, and potato on a grilled tortilla. The red sauce has great flavor.

    Cardiff Croissant Sandwich

    This place has a "grab and go" vibe. $16 for a croissant and drip coffee. Not many other options around so if you are in a pinch for breakfast this gets the job done.

    I love this place! It's my go to every Wednesday!! The restaurant itself is very esthetically pleasing and clean. The staff is very nice and welcoming. The menu has lots of varieties of food. My go to is the Tikka Masala Chicken, it's to die for! Addictive because it's so tasty!! The service is fast and everything comes out fresh. Thank you for giving such a great option downtown!!

    Harvest Chicken Salad Sandwich

    Hidden deli inside of a professional business building downtown. Thought it was clean and spaced out nicely for the times we are in. I did the Harvest Chicken Salad Sandwich today. Pretty healthy tasting choice. Albeit they do have burgers on the menu I want to try out next time.

    This place is mediocre at best. Very expensive and food takes forever even if you order ahead.

I told my friend the food was worth the wait. After an hour we got sat at the bar and our first server was friendly. There was a transition of servers (not sure if he left for the day or went on lunch) and the new server would check on everyone at the bar except us. My water remained empty for most of the meal. The bartenders in front of us were clearly having a conversation and I didn't want to interrupt. My friend claimed her Irish coffee was sour? And didn't realize cheese came on a side of eggs (she should've checked when she ordered but the server never clarified either). We weren't checked on during the meal until the bill came and by then we just wanted to leave. I ordered the fluffy pancakes and found an egg shell inside. The cracking of eggshells in my mouth made me loose my appetite. We paid (still tipped of course) and left. It was great the first time and mediocre the second time. I prefer consistently in service, especially if I'm waiting an hour to be seated.

We had spent most of the day around Bankers Hill and decided to grab an early dinner at Books & Records. Getting reservations was easy, but from the moment we walked in, the ambiance alone already had us sold. The place was still pretty quiet when we arrived, and to our surprise it was happy hour, so naturally we ordered a bunch of items off the menu along with drinks. Everything was ridiculously good. Not one miss. What really stood out though was the attention to detail. The host brought us a complimentary glass of champagne after hearing we were celebrating our anniversary. Small gesture, big impact. Stuff like that matters. As the night went on, the restaurant filled up, live music started playing, and the whole atmosphere just came alive. Our waiter never rushed us once, which made the experience feel even more intentional and relaxed. We were able to actually enjoy the moment instead of feeling pushed through dinner service. Good food is one thing. Great hospitality is another. This place gave us both. Next time we're in San Diego, we're absolutely making it a point to come back. Lovely spot. Lovely experience.

It's got the decor, chairs, and art to match. Jessica was our server and she was amazing! She gave us lots of suggestions on what to try and what is on the menu since it was my first time here. She recommended the bloody Mary flight so did grab that to try! We also ordered the biscuits and gravy to share and orange juice. The portions are so large! So I am glad we decided to share the biscuits and gravy but let me run down each thing. Bloody Mary Flight: Honestly every single one was amazing. My favorite was definitely the pickle Mary! Everything tasted so delicious and was garnished beautifully. Well worth the 22 dollars. Biscuits and Gravy: Absolute perfection of comfort food. The biscuits were so fluffy and well seasoned. The gravy was also soooo good, just like my mom makes. The sausage in it was also cooked so well and juicy. I've never tried mashed potatoes with the biscuits and gravy but it worked very well! Orange Juice: Not a fan really, not pulpy enough and I wasn't a fan of the flavor. Overall this is definitely a must visit! I will definitely be back.

"Over medium" eggs came barely cooked, still had clear egg gel floating around. The table next to us had the same issue. The fried chicken, which is beautiful looking, was strangely flavorless. Another table was also talking about this issue. Bacon was way overcooked as well. I also really dislike when food timing for a table is way off. I rather it stay in the kitchen under a heat lamp and come together rather that spend 5 minutes staring at my food being polite. So, for a fun "wow that's a ton of food" experience this is it. But I much prefer quality ingredients and attention to detail and flavor over unfinishable portions at a premium price point ($100 after tip for 2 ppl).

Growing up, I always looked forward to meat pie Fridays at primary school, so when I saw they had meat pies on the menu, I knew I had to try this place. I was honestly blown away. The meat pie was incredible. The flakiness of the crust especially stood out because it is seriously hard to replicate a taste of home from over 30 years ago, but they absolutely nailed it. It was spot on. I really took my time with every bite. The fries were perfectly crispy and seasoned so well too. It was so good that I had to order another pie to-go and yes, I literally carried it onto the plane with me. Even after traveling, it still did not disappoint.
