Very generous portions especially the sundaes. Convenient location with good parking BUT this DQ is old and needs lots of TLC including a good scrubbing. Only hotdogs for hot food and no fries.

I was in the store one evening in May 2022 at 7:50 pm Katherine (in picture) and two other employees refused to make ice cream/blizzards for the remaining customers (8 or so people including children) that were in the store. I have worked a long time and know that it is a law that you have to allow patrons in until the posted time for your establishment and serve them. I along with two other families were refused service. I understand these teenagers wanted to go home however I am a paying customer that stood in line for 10 minutes and still didn't get served. Katherine informed us that at 8 pm she would not be helping us and we had to leave because they were locking up. She also went so far as to tell us that the system locks at 8 pm and they cannot operate the cash registers. Yes, it is just ice cream, however, it was childish, rude, and unprofessional and having eaten at this store for 20 years I was disappointed at the treatment we received. I can say unless I know that things have improved I will not return and will make sure to spread the word about the horrible service here. In the past 9 months since this incident, I have been in the strip mall about 10 times and have driven to Vons and 7-11 instead of getting a treat at this venue. Please contact me regarding this matter. Thank you. read more

All of the staff here are teens in high school so it always makes sense to me when I place an order and then I go to pick it up and it was not even started LOL. Look, I get it. I was a teen working at an ice cream shop once, always so distracted I guess...Point it, I love my Dairy Queen, I love my custom blizzards I get to create and I always leave with my order at the end of the day...even if I have to wait 10-15 minutes for 1 blizzard. I will give them props, they are very friendly so that is a plus!! The place is clean, it's always nice and cool inside. This is kinda one of those places that you question, do you really need to even read or write a review for. It's DAIRY QUEEN. They can do NO WRONG. I'd just say, if you want to get your order going, download the app and place the order. Follow up your order with a call to the store to tell them to start working on it ;) They are always so welcoming and it's just one of those ice cream places that you hope never goes away. read more

I usually go a totally loaded Blizzard when I visit a Dairy Queen, but this time around, given I recently had lunch, I went for a small cake cone with vanilla soft serve and dipped in chocolate sauce for a hard shell. I wanted a brown sugar cone, but for some reason Warren Buffet doesn't carry them! The ice cream was what I expected it to be: cold, smooth, and definitely full of great vanilla flavor. They also did not skimp on the quantity, even for a small cone. The hardened chocolate sauce was great. It was crisp on contact and then quickly melted in the mouth filled with a great sweet chocolate flavor. If I just had a brown sugar cone... Service was good and the place was rather clean. read more

Being from Philly, I take my cheesesteaks very seriously. Probably more seriously than a reasonable adult should. So when I finally tried Gaglione Bros. in San Diego, I went in hopeful. First, the good stuff. The staff was wonderful, genuinely friendly, the place was clean, and there were plenty of options. They even had Amoroso rolls and fresh-shaved prime rib. On paper, we were speaking my language. But whenever I try a new "Philly cheesesteak" place, I order my first steak plain. No cheese, no onions, no peppers, no hiding behind toppings. If you want to call yourself a Philly steak shop, the steak and bread should be able to stand on their own. Unfortunately, this one didn't. The meat was heavily salted and peppered, surprisingly dry, and every couple of bites I was pulling out pieces of fat. And nothing makes you question your dining choices quite like discreetly removing a piece of steak from your mouth in public. For me, a great cheesesteak has balance. The meat should be tender and juicy, with enough seasoning to bring out the beef rather than overpower it. There should be a little richness from the griddle, the steak juices, and everything cooking around it. Then you add the onions, mushrooms, peppers, cheese or whatever your particular Philly allegiance demands. This steak just didn't have that softness or heart. It honestly reminded me more of the tourist cheesesteak experience in Philly. And my fellow Philadelphians know exactly what I mean when I say that. A real Philly cheesesteak isn't complicated food, but that's precisely why every part matters. The bread matters. The meat matters. The griddle matters. And somehow, when someone really knows how to make one, you can taste the heart in it. Would I try Gaglione Bros. again? Probably not for the cheesesteak. The people were great and the place itself left a good impression, but the steak didn't. Mostly, the experience just left this Philly girl Jonesing for a long weekend back home, a walk down South Street, and a cheesesteak from that place. If you're from Philly, you already know which one I mean.

I enjoy eating authentic Mexican cuisine. I parked my car in their parking lot then I walked inside their front door. I talked to the owner Caesar and asked him How long has he been in business at this Starling Drive location in San Diego, CA? Caesar said he's been operating his California Burrito Restaurant business for 20 years now. Caesar also said to me that he works with his wife and grown children at his Mexican restaurant every day. My order was placed by Caesar today for my lunch time meal at 12:30 PM. I ordered one Beans and Cheese Burrito. The price is $7.50. Then I had to pay a tip of 20 percent that came up to $1.25. The tax was $1.50. My total purchase today was $9.25. I had to wait at least 30 minutes later until my order number 109 was called to the front counter today. There was non stop walk in customers coming into this California Burrito Restaurant at the lunch hour between 12:30 AM to 2:30 PM today. Their majority of their customers were of Mexican descent and I saw only 3 Black People placing their orders with Caesar today. I was the only Asian person ordering from this California Burrito Restaurant this afternoon. I also noticed 2 Nurses picking up their orders today who work for Sharp Memorial Hospital today. This man and woman nurse were of Caucasian descent. It's interesting for me to get to know the population of people who are living nearby this Starling Drive location. Caesar called my order number 109 today. Then I was served a really HUGE Beans and Cheese Burrito. I also drank cold ice water today. It was a beautiful day today because the weather conditions were very cool and cloudy. I sat down at this window seat so I could see the outside. The Beans and Cheese Burrito was very tasty the beans were refried and thete was a very generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese. The Tortilla was heated up and slightly toasted. This Beans and Cheese Burrito was a HUGE Size. I wasn't sure that I had an appetite to finish eating this Beans and Cheese Burrito but the flavor was amazing! I kept taking small bites on this Beans and Cheese Burrito for my lunch time meal this afternoon. I also received excellent customer service from Caesar and the rest of his family I saw was working very hard in the back kitchen area preparing and making their very popular Carne Asada Burritos. I also saw Caesar and an older lady sweeping up the floor and also mopping up the floor inside their front entrance to their California Burrito Restaurant Caesar told me to come in again soon to try their Steak Carne Asada Burrito.

In-N-Out Burger

Hot Take: In-N-Out's best quality is the freshness of their burger patties, but most of all their…read morevegetables. They have the freshest, and crisp vegetables not only for fast food but for burgers in general. Because of this they also have the absolute best lettuce wrap (protein style) burgers. I also love raw onions and appreciate that they include the entire cross section rather than a few rings. Rant over. The rest is standard In-N-Out; terrible fries no matter how you get them done, long lines and wait times at busy hours, friendly and polite servers, and classic red and white 1950s Americana interior. Tip: if you like their chili peppers, you can buy them at most American grocery stores nearby. They're sold under the company El Pato.

In-N-Out does exactly what it promises: fresh burgers, fries, and shakes with no gimmicks. Burgers…read morealways come out hot, patties are never frozen, and the buns are toasted just right. Staff is ridiculously fast and friendly, even with a line wrapped around the building. Yes, the menu is tiny. Yes, the drive-thru wait can be 20 minutes at lunch. Fries are hit-or-miss if you don't get them well-done. But for the price, it's hard to beat. Animal Style everything and don't overthink it. Consistently the best fast food burger in California.

What adds to this food experience is the sauce that they give you both green and orange and they are both so delicious.

The employees were very friendly and helpful when I was trying to decide which burger to get. I ordered: * The Cali Crispy Burger: It's $10.99 for a single patty, and you can add a side and drink for an additional $4.99. The burger tasted really fresh, especially the avocado. The Thousand Island dressing gave it a unique flavor that worked really well with everything. * Onion Rings: These were delicious! Nice and crispy, and they definitely weren't stingy with the portion. You could easily split an order between two people. My food came out in less than 10 minutes, and they brought it directly to my table. Once you're finished you just throw away your trash and place the tray on the rack above the trash can. Parking was really easy since they have a spacious parking lot. They're also dog friendly, which is always a huge plus. Overall a fresh, tasty burger with great service. I'd definitely come back to try other burgers on the menu.

In terms of ranking, I'd put this place above fast food for certain. But in terms of smash burgers…read moreit's pretty mid. So I can't give it 3 stars fairly. But I wouldn't choose this above the friendly or friends of friends,etc. I can say the food was made with fresh ingredients and the staff was super friendly and helpful. But I found nothing crispy about the patty and to be honest, I felt the burger didn't have enough sodium. The fries were similar to McDonald's but also lacking in sodium. They only had Pepsi... take that how you will. I'm not going to complain about the price because I think that's unfair nowadays. My meal of an OG, fries and a drink was about $20. Pretty sure that's normal now.

I would give it a Zero...if I could!! I happen to know the inside scoop! DONT EVER GO HERE!! First of all the owner is a sexist pig and only hires young females!! Second, he changes dates on expired foods. Keeps them until it's empty, no matter when they should have been thrown out!! This comes from people who have worked here. We did call the health department and made a complaint! Obviously they don't care about what you eat either!! read more

Have to emphasize the high level of cleanliness here and the very good service. I ordered a salad based on the turkey sandwich, and added every veggie except pickles, plus olive oil and red wine vinegar on the side. It's kind of small for $10.54 after tax (see receipt), but I was in a pinch for something as I forgot my main part of my lunch at home. Overall the salad ingredients were really fresh, and once mixed, it tasted pretty good overall. With my three hard boiled eggs I brought from home, it was a pretty filling and solid meal. I give this Subway a 4.33/5 stars (high for any fast food honestly) and definitely think it's one of the better locations in all of San Diego city.

Other locations are usually good, but this location outshines them all. I've read that Chick-fil-A limits franchise store owners to just 2 locations. I've patronized this spot 25 times or more over the last 2 years. The owner is smart, dedicated, and highly skilled when it comes to hiring, training, and supervising employees. The service is head and shoulders better than any other fast food place I've ever visited. And this particular store is better than any other location I've tried both in and out of San Diego. The food is consistently good. The milkshakes are the best around. And though prices may seem a little high, the freebies and promotions I've experienced bring down the cost considerably. I trust them keeping my credit card information on file. Doing so allows me to order ahead as I'm leaving the house. My order is almost done by the time I make the 20-minute drive. Downside? Never open on Sunday. A few items like the potatoes are underwhelming and over priced, but there is a respect for quality and integrity here that just doesn't, never has, and likely won't ever exist at another fast food chain. Chick-fil-A is my top choice for fast food and this location is my top choice for the franchise. Hats off for doing a great job!
