First time visiting Bubba's and I was immediately struck by how beautiful this restaurant is. First from the facade outside, then inside with the airy tavern like vibe. Lot's of wood here which I appreciate. Although we dined inside it was pretty warm. Probably because the front of the restaurant is wide open, coupled with a myriad of skylights. Seems to be the norm for Grand Avenue these days. Service was quick, professional and reasonably friendly. Loved the draft beer selection here, served nice and cold. This establishment is not full bar unfortunately, so refering to it as a "sports bar" might be a misnomer. Men's room was clean, spacious and modern. I ordered the 1/4 Chicken Platter. Comes with one fixin' and a half slice of Texas Toast. Not sure who got the other half but that's ok... I was hoping for a leg quarter but it wound up being a breast quarter. Not sure if there's a choice here, but I wasn't asked. It was meaty, juicy and delicious, although watch out for small, random bones that manifest themselves when you chop a chicken breast in half that way. For the fixin' I chose my favorite, macaroni & cheese! I was impressed that it seemed like a house made mac and not all institutional tasting. It should have been served hotter though, it was just varying degrees of warm throughout. The menu is vast with many other things I would love to try so I look forward to visiting again soon.

Came for a quick Sunday lunch. We liked how open and spacious it was. We entered and was greeted and sat down at our choosing. There were TVs that ran along the bar which would make a fun time watching a game. We placed our orders for bbq chicken and chicken tenders. Food was good. Downside was it took a while for anyone to check in on us and our server disappeared when we wanted the check. Otherwise, seem like a fun space to hang with friends and watch a game.

Bacon Burger, Side of fries and Bubba special which has pulled pork, brisket and sausage- load that up with bbq sauce and super yum

Great service, beautiful new space and amazing food. Stopped here for a bite to eat and watch the Padres game. This place is new and just great. Lots of TV's which gives you views of the game from any angle - all of the screens are nice and new as well. Priscilla was behind the bar - she was fun to chat with and gave great service. She told us all about the place as it's just a few months since it opened. She gave us some recommendations and we landed on a burger, the bubba special, side of fries (huge portions and yummy) and kombucha on tap. Our food was really good, reasonably priced and big portions. You can tell everyone in the area can't wait for Grand to be open again. We will most certainly be back to try other items from the menu. There are lots of seating options including a large dining area in the back of the restaurant - you can enter from the back parking lot or off grand.

I thought it was a nice place with a balanced selection of food and drink. Like others said, ditch the bud light for a coors light to make the majority happy. Prices are a little high, but I get that the place is in the high rent district of downtown Escondido. Four beers, two IPAs and two Stellas were $44 before the add ons. Shout out to the wings though. They are fantastic. Also, Pricilla on her first day was awesome. I would certainly return but it would have to be a happy hour opportunity. Nice to see a new place in Escondido.

Service was great. 1st time here. My husband wanted Bbq so thought we would give this a try. We were in the area visiting family. They had been recently and enjoyed the sliders. I was disappointed. My husband was going to order just 1/3 rack with a side of garlic mashed potatoes. I had him order 1/2 rack and I got a dinner salad. I figured I would take a couple of the ribs and add it as protein to my salad. The meat did come right off of the bone. I just didn't think it had great flavor. I requested a small side of BBQ sauce. That didn't help. I love a good BBQ sauce and this was not even close. It was very thin in consistency. My husband thought it was just fine. I thought the best thing was the Texas Toast. Beers were good and cold. Waitress was wonderful. But $80 later I left disappointed.

I went a few days ago during Cruisin Grand with a couple friends. We were bar/restaurant hopping so we weren't hungry enough to try a few things but we did have beer and wings. Wings came out hot and juicy. Beers were cold and fresh. Server was pleasant and attentive. Lots of TVs around to watch sports while having beers and BBQ.

Bbq flat with sauce and cayenne. Avoid the brisket in general. Get the chicken.

Pro : Moist chicken. Quick service, clean bathroom. Direct access to parking lot in rear. Gorgeous restaurant and back patios. TVs everywhere, great for sports and beer! Con : questionable bbq without identity. Came here on some recommendation from local folks for bbq, was quite unexpected. Its better than the chain or larger outfits in Esco but that's not saying much. 1. Chicken and ribs plate, with potato salad side. - Potato is a Carolina style, creamy with herbs and not salty, enjoyed it. - Toast was perfect, good crunch but not overwhelming. - Chicken was lightly smoked, crispy skin and still moist, the highlight protein of the meal. - Ribs - the trim was baby back, fall off the bone in a bad way, it was just a boiled mess that had bbq sauce on the ribs. The bartender said it was smoked, but there is no smoke ring, just like the chicken or brisket. Avoid. 2. Brisket. Oh boy, this is where everything fell apart. - USDA prime, cool. But they didnt trim it well, the point was a mess. - sucker came out covered in sauce. After I asked what smoking style is it, after some redirect, he said Texas. If you serve central, north, or east Texan bbq, you will get chased out of town. This is some Kansas City style at best. - bbq sauce is some kind of Memphis brand with a lot of brown sugar, watery. - asked for mixed point and flat, was told have to pick one. Ordered point, came out flat. Bartender went back to kitchen to get me some point. Told me this is the first cut of the brisket for dinner service at 430pm. - flat was dry, painfully dey, was told there is no wrap, I could see no smoke ring and there was no inject or enough rub. The rule with bbq is no rub equals no bark, no bark equals no flavor. This place is betting on the bbq sauce to cover up the meat quality. I can't imagine how this hunk of meat will be by 9 pm. - point was a bit burnt, some foil would of deflected the heat source. The restaurant didnt want to waste trimming so trimming was minimal if any. 50% was edible with all the fat. Covered in sauce. - price - 42 USD. I say its reasonable price from just food cost, payroll, and rent. Overall the plating presentation was nice. Bartender brought me vinegar based bbq - south Carolina style with a little kick in spice. Quite a delight with the chicken. Its not as sour as the stuff around Carolinas that I had. If you check out my other reviews of bbq in SD, I usually quote "its easy to have a bbq place in San Diego since the people here have no clue what is good BBQ". This isnt as bad as Felix or Mike's, but its not Heritage (Oceanside) or Grand Olde BBQ (North Park), this is a local restaurant that pretends to serve BBQ. Would come back to try non bbq food, support your local business!

Third review. Consistently great, clean and friendly. Portions amazing, reasonable prices. Try the Cobb salad because it has bbq pulled chicken and pork so tender. Very clean and laid back. All kinds of sports playing. Good music

Caesar salad with chicken, bubba sandwich

Joey F.

Yeah like, its pretty decent bbq, but waay overpriced. A caesar salad with no meat is 14 bucks. Looks nice inside. Employees were fine.

Beef ribs ($34), Pulled pork sandwich ($18!!!) + 4% surcharge so really $35, $19

Terry F.

Server was honestly really, really nice and easy to work with. He did forget one of my items (BBQ) for a while and took a little bit to close out, but overall really enjoyed how attentive he was. The actual bar looks great, and I love the sports atmosphere that they're going for. Our food came out relatively quickly, but I think I know why. Unfortunately the Beef ribs I got tasted as if they were reheated and just not that great. The pulled pork my fiancé got was cold in the middle and didn't have much flavor. The BBQ sauce wasn't my favorite either and was very cold when our server got it to us. The mashed potatoes were extremely creamy and I enjoyed them quite a bit, but my fiancé did not. The Texas toast was pretty decent. I feel horrible writing this because I wanted to enjoy the restaurant so bad because I know it's local. Will likely try again, but Wednesday night was rough!

Bubba's in Escondido was in its first week open when we decided to come in with a group of 10 on a Friday night. Although we showed up early, it was filling up quickly, and they seemed a bit understaffed. Totally understandable for a new establishment working out the kinks. We plan to go back as a couple and maybe not on a Friday night to give it another shot, but the drinks and food that we did receive were good.

Came with my girlfriend and a friend and we enjoyed our dinner tonight here. I got the brisket platter for $30. The meat was very tender and moist. At first I was honestly scared because at some places it is a gamble in whether it is good or not but this one came out just right and had the perfect amount of sauce. The Mac and cheese and Texas toast were also delicious. Overall I thought that the meal was great especially at it's price. Our server Priscilla was very kind and gave us the best service that night. Definitely will come back soon read more

I've been to Bubba's three times, and the food has been solid each time--especially the potato skins. Unfortunately, the experience is overshadowed by the bartender (possibly the owner) loudly sharing his political views during service. Each visit has included unsolicited Trump commentary and opinions about what women should do with their reproductive rights. It's made it really hard to relax and enjoy my meal. I came for the food, not a political lecture. Unless you're looking for that kind of conversation with your meal, I'd recommend trying somewhere else. I won't be back. read more

This is mainly a review of their BBQ. Service it top notch. Staff is friendly, attentive and upbeat. Overall its a good concept, but it strays off course somewhere at the recipe stage. I'd wager whoever is in charge of the brisket has never stepped foot in TX or OK. Whoever formulated the sauce should spend time in LA, GA, VA and TN. The sauce is too sweet and weird tasting, almost like they used splenda and forgot the apple cider vinegar. Same with slaw. The meat was probably well prepared but add the sauce and it reminded me of eating Manwich. I'll try them again because I want to like them. But I'll try something other than BBQ. read more

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME 4% charge for using a card on an already overpriced meal. I'm one who has no issues with spending on a meal but from someone who actually cooks fresh meals everything at Bubba's tasked microwaved. The portions were lunch sized for coastal dinner pricing. Our server tried his hardest but no one there was savvy with the menu or facility and there were several items on the menu that were out of stock. read more

I like the casual feel and friendly servers. The meat is delicious and is fall off the bone tender so you know care was put into preparation. Then they drown it in cloyingly sweet bbq sauce. Now I grew up on bbq so I appreciated the dry rub on the ribs, but come on...offering up candied meat is not bbq. More dry rub please and offer some tangy sauce, and some spicy sauce too! Sweet meat, and sweet bbq beans is overkill! Also my Texas toast was soggy by the time I got it. The bbq Cobb was great and big enough to split! I'm gonna keep checking your menu and when you offer more than the current sugar glaze. PS: the 4% service charge should be mentioned on the menu or at the hostess station prior to being seated or ordering. I like to know when my pocket is being picked. read more

Bubba's took the place of the old Barrel Republic which means limited comfortable seating for diners in the dining room. It's definitely a more bar atmosphere with high bar top seating. I believe there was only one dining table, so I wouldn't recommend it for wheelchair users or families with young children. They left the door open while noisy and dusty construction was ongoing outside, making for a very unpleasant lunch atmosphere. Service was great, although he could only do so much to make up for the 45 minute wait on the brisket sandwich we ordered. The BBQ was okay - the sausage was excellent and tender but the brisket was dry. The chicken tenders were the frozen kind, as well as the fries. Would expect fresh cut fries and hand breaded tenders at this price point. The beverages come from the bar gun and the carbonation/syrup balance is bad and watered down. Overall, everything was just okay. read more

Then they charged a 4% sur charge on top of the already expensive bill. Sur charge for what exactly? Absolutely not ok, completely turned off and will never return to that establishment nor will i recommend it to anybody.

The food is good (I like the club sandwich), the beers are expensive ($9 for 14 oz!), and the staff is friendly. We have come here several times, mainly due to their awesome 20% discount on Sundays after 4pm for first responders and civil servants. However, we were told tonight that, going forward, the discount is only for first responders. As a civil servant, this is disappointing, so we likely won't be coming here nearly as much as we have been. read more

Went here when they first opened a few months ago. Service was a bit clunky as one might expect. Had the pulled pork sliders that were on happy hour.. very good and a lot of food. Tried Bubbas out this past Friday. Hostess disappeared when me and some friends showed up. Other customers were waiting in front and asked if we checked in and we shrugged our shoulders because nobody offered to seat us etc. Decided to go the bar, sat down there and waited 15 minutes and nobody even looked our way or asked what we wanted. Ended up leaving as it appeared they didn't want our business. This place is not going to make it with horrible customer service like this. read more

Ok so I come here often with my family. It's a wonderful restaurant, don't get me wrong, the owner is great. But during my most recent visit with a family member who is not from California was cut short by the absolute rudeness of one of the hostesses. My mother didn't even get to ask for a table before she was interrupted by a hostess in a very rude tone saying they were not going to seat people until a specific time. This would not have been a problem, we wouldn't mind waiting, but the tone with which we were told was completely unacceptable. And when we asked for clarification, the rude tone only got worse. This is not our first negative experience with this hostess. Again, the food is great, and most of the time so is the service. The place is always clean. But the negative experiences continue to occur. They don't staff the way they need to, which leaves many tables open, but unable to be attended. And it happens often. We came during cruising grand, which would generally be expected to be a busy business day. Evidently they did not plan ahead staff wise. read more

Upper East on Grand

The good: Great service from our server, lovely atmosphere, seated quickly on even on Mothers day. Salad and basil dressing were great. The crab cake was good. The unacceptable: The most important part of eggs benedict is the poached eggs, that means cooked whites, runny yolk. 2 of us ordered the dish, and of the 4 poached eggs, three were so overcooked, the yolks were hard boiled, crumbly and dry. I let the server know and asked that they just bring out new eggs, no need to remake the plate. over 15 minutes later, (so ow we had cold crab cakes) they dropped off a small plate with 4 genuinely undercooked poached eggs, they looked like soup. they were a literal puddle. The manager came by to ask if we had out eggs yet a couple moments before they were dropped off, we said no and he and said I'll take care of one of these for you. I don't expect free meals, and I rarely send food back, but this seemed pretty petty. Soupy eggs that took an extraordinarily long time (the restaurant was not at capacity at all). When I received the bill, there was a 15% discount on the eggs benedict. I get tight margins, but at least make the dish correctly please. The hollandaise sauce was good, the server very sweet and friendly (and of course we tipped him 20%, food is not his fault) but I doubt I would try this place again if that is how the rectify substandard meals.

I got to try the onion rings and sweet potato fries. I wish the sweet potato fries were crispy. They were more on the soggy side. The onion rings batter was a lil thicker than I like. The batter overpowered the onion. We also got the Cajun wings to try which was nice and crispy! They give you a few sauces on the side so you can dip it. I got the ranch which was so good with the wings, fries and burger. The milkshakes are pretty delicious! We got the classic vanilla one. It was a pretty thick shake so you know they use legit ice cream! I also liked the peach lemonade. I would check this place out if you're in the area!

Unfortunately, we decided to stray from our usual order the other night and try the "shells," and it turned out to be a big disappointment. I assumed this meant stuffed shells... the classic ricotta-filled pasta. Instead, what arrived was a large bowl of empty, medium-sized shells with marinara sauce poured on top. In both presentation and taste, it felt no different than plain spaghetti, just in a different shape. It was unappealing to look at and, honestly, unappetizing. While this may have been an oversight on my part when reading the menu, the dish itself was extremely underwhelming for the price. The garlic bread that came with it was soggy and lacked flavor, which only added to the disappointment. The salad, however, was good and the one bright spot of the meal. Still, it was frustrating to spend that much money only to throw away nearly half of the food. That said, if you're coming here for pizza, you won't be disappointed... it's still excellent and worth the visit. I've also heard good things about their lasagna. Just be cautious when ordering anything described as "shells" and make sure it's what you're actually expecting.

My Dad was a stand-up comedian, so I grew up going to shows. I have very specific ideas about what makes a good experience. I like the new location for some reasons like easier parking, inside lineup which is good in cold or rainy weather, etc. It's still small on the scale of some clubs, so you won't be too far away from the action. Usual two-item minimum, which is standard. They kept the pizza menu from before, so decent options for food. My friends ordered breadsticks, and those were pretty good. My usual at comedy is a dessert and a coke, so I tried the chocolate cake with raspberry sauce. It was good, a large portion, and the raspberry helped cut through the intense chocolate flavor. It looked like a much better deal than the piece of cheesecake that the next table ordered. They have free offers for people on the mailing list from time to time, and some larger name comedians. Our show was postponed last-minute, so they gave us free admission to the replacement show.

FIRANGI Authentic Indian Gastropub -- What a Place!…read more Wow. I honestly walked in expecting a good Indian restaurant... but what I found was something completely different. This place isn't just a restaurant -- it's a full-blown lounge with style. First thing you notice is the vibe. Beautiful Tiffany-colored interior, elegant lighting, and a stunning marble bar that looks like it belongs in some high-end lounge in London or Dubai. Very classy, very comfortable, very cool. But wait... it gets better. POOL TABLES! And not just decoration -- actual playable tables. $1 a game! I nearly fell off my chair. I haven't played in ages. When I was younger I used to be pretty serious about pool, so naturally I had to grab a cue and see if I still had the magic. Let's just say... the spirit is still there, even if the aim needs a little polishing. They even run pool tournaments on Saturdays, which is amazing. So now suddenly dinner can turn into a little friendly competition. I'm already planning my comeback tour. Now about the food -- absolutely authentic and delicious. Real Indian flavors, beautifully presented, rich spices, and clearly prepared with care. Everything we tried was excellent and I'm already planning my next visit because I have to try the lamb. I've heard it's fantastic. A special thank-you to Sky, the lady boss of this place. She is super friendly, incredibly polite, and very professional. You can immediately tell she knows the cuisine inside and out. She explained dishes, made recommendations, and made us feel genuinely welcome. Hospitality like that makes a huge difference. So what do we have here? * Beautiful lounge atmosphere * Marble bar and stylish interior * Authentic Indian cuisine * Pool tables for $1 (yes, really) * Saturday tournaments * Fantastic hospitality Honestly, this place is a hidden gem. A perfect spot for dinner, drinks, and maybe a little pool if you're feeling competitive. Let's just say this: I will definitely be coming back... probably way too often. If you see a guy practicing pool shots while waiting for his lamb curry -- that's probably me. Highly recommended. woww

I feel compelled to share my recent experience at Bubba's, not out of malice, but simply to recount the facts of our visit. We arrived genuinely hoping for a pleasant meal, only to be met with a situation that was, frankly, quite unpleasant and something I've never encountered before in my dining experiences. Upon inquiring about a table, we were informed that the restaurant was "full" and they were not accepting any further patrons. This, in itself, is understandable. However, the situation quickly became unusual when the host explicitly stated that we would not be seated until a specific, visible group of people left the restaurant, going so far as to point them out. We also noticed open spots available at the bar, which, in many establishments, is an alternative for immediate seating. Regrettably, we were also denied the option to sit there. The combination of being singled out to wait for another party to depart, and then being refused open bar seating, made the whole situation extremely uncomfortable. The service felt less than hospitable, and while I hesitate to use strong language, the experience was genuinely horrible in terms of how unwelcoming it felt. We left feeling disheartened and quite honestly, perplexed. I sincerely hope that this was an isolated incident, and perhaps a misunderstanding in their seating policy. read more

We've visited this establishment numerous times for food and cocktails. However, the bartender, Guy, who worked there on January 11, 2025, at 8:20 p.m., was exceptionally rude. When I inquired about food availability, he informed me that there was none. I was accompanied by my husband and children in the car. I asked if he was aware of any nearby restaurants that could provide us with food. He responded with a nonchalant nod, saying, "I don't know, I don't live here." I retorted, "But you work here and have no costumer service" He then exclaimed, "I wasn't a customer." Now, I'm not. It's clear that he needs to improve his basic customer service skills. read more

Originally, I wrote a review that was honest, constructive, and even supportive--definitely not scathing. I aimed to share a balanced perspective. But shortly after posting, I received some unexpected backlash from what seemed like upset patrons or possibly employees. That response alone spoke volumes about the culture and professionalism. Now, the review has been pulled into Yelp's "Not Recommended" section, which means it no longer counts toward the business's rating or appears in the main feed. Just a heads-up to anyone considering leaving feedback: you might get pushback, and your review could be quietly filtered out. read more

I am updating my review because I want people to know how good this food really is. We want to keep Bubba's Escondido they run out of food because they make everything from scratch. They also prep it offsite so the server explained to me that when they're out they're out it's gonna be very difficult to explain this to people because they're used to pre-cooked food I was told by the server that everything is made that day and fresh what I had was amazing the ribs fell off the bone brisket fell apart chicken juicy this place also looks great.
