The folks here are…read morereally super nice, attentive and they definitely make an awesome, refreshing bowl of shaved ice when it's hot out. On another visit, we also did the top golf game up front and they come by and bring your food order so you can eat and play top golf games. Pretty good prices and standard burgers and fries on the menu. -----TL;DR----- Pros: price range is quite reasonable, friendly staff, refreshing shaved ice when it's hot out! Cons: if they are busy it can take a minute to get your order (I am guessing there's one chef and one server), but they are working hard back there, for sure Bottom Line: order the shaved ice! Or have a snack when you're playing the top golf games.

I wanted to try something new, but I prefer this as a fresh mango with chamoy. The combination of the chamoy and fresh fruit has always worked well together but it misses when the fruit is fried. The batter was thick, mango was warm, and the chamoy was sweet. I'll pass on this next time. I had the Fried Oreos, which is usually my go to, but this was super sweet! Not sure if this was the case the other times I've gotten this, but I could only eat two. Finally, I tried their famous Maui chicken in the pineapple. First of all, the rice was mushy. Too much water! Should be light and fluffy but it wasn't. For the price, not enough chicken and too much pineapple. Would be nice to have more teriyaki glaze drizzled on top. Thankfully we were able to get some seats nearby. Lines weren't so long, so that's a plus.

Let's start with the saving grace: the prices. Because…read morehonestly... where are you getting lunch for $6.49 with tax these days? I ordered the original El Pollo Loco bowl and for the price alone, it's hard to complain. Affordable, filling, and exactly what you expect. That said... the customer service needs work. I walked in, greeted the staff, and one of the employees at the front turned around, looked at me, then turned back around. No greeting, no acknowledgment -- just a head nod toward the other employee to assist me. That felt unnecessarily dismissive. The woman who helped me wasn't rude, but her personality was very flat. She did give me salsa when I asked, so I wouldn't call the service bad -- just uninspired. There was no warmth or engagement, which made the interaction feel awkward. A basic greeting goes a long way, especially when you're the first point of contact. Would I come back? Yes, for the price. Would I like to see better customer service? Also yes. The food delivers for the value, but the front-of-house experience could use improvement.

I ordered at 4:45 and at 5:30 the app said it was in the delivery car and would arrive by 5:45. But every time I checked the app, the delivery window was later and later. At the hour mark, I finally called and asked to get a refund and they said no, since it was already in the delivery car. When it finally arrived at about 6:25, it was hot and that is about the only good thing I could say. (And delivery driver left it at the side door right on a wet mat.) We couldn't eat the bread bites at all. I think they may have been undercooked but they also had an odd taste and odd look so we threw them away. The "pan pizza" crust was basically a regular crust, also undercooked. The regular pizza was shaped oddly (not a big deal) but looked like a child made it - very few toppings, cheese was hit or miss and there was no crust. It was also undercooked. Very disappointing experience since Domino's is generally consistent. I want my tip back!

My kiddos were running a 5K in Los Angeles and with my son having driven up earlier this week, I…read moredidn't want us to have two cars driving back home, so I took the Amtrak for the first time to meet up with my kiddos. Since my train wasn't leaving until later, I decided to find a place to eat dinner and found Chief's Burgers, Brew & Spirits. Chief's was a cool place to chill out and grab a bite. The burger and fries entree, the quality customer service from Nora, and the vibe were memorable. What was irritating was hearing a customer show his Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) by talking out loud about his disdain for our President. You lost old dude, but I won by dining at Chief's. 4.5 stars! Chief's Burgers is located in Solana Beach specifically on Lomas Santa Fe Drive. It's conveniently a short walk across from the Amtrak train station and within the Solana Beach Plaza strip mall. The plaza has Solana Frosty and Solana Beach Fish House. There is plenty of parking. As you step inside Chief's, you'll quickly determine that it's a sports bar with plenty of televisions, sports memorabilia, basketballs hanging from the ceiling, and a variety of modes of travel also hanging as decor. It's a spacious restaurant with bar top seating, low table top, high table top, picnic benches, and outdoor seating. There are a lot of Native American statues, framed pics, and depictions throughout the restaurant. There's a whole section decorated for Denver Broncos fans. I liked seeing tributes to our local sports teams. The customer service from Nora was noteworthy and I appreciated her friendly demeanor. I asked Nora why the restaurant was named Chief's and why there was an homage to the Broncos. She kindly explained that the owners were Native American and that they came from Colorado. Prior to embarking on the train, I initially thought I'd eat dinner with my kids once I got into Los Angeles, but since my train wasn't leaving until 5:40pm and wouldn't arrive at Union Station until about 8pm, I decided to find a restaurant to eat dinner. I found Chief's really quick since it was across from the station and walked over to dine in. Chief's serves a diverse menu besides burgers, which includes sandwiches, sides, Mexican food, appetizers, wings, salads, sliders, soup and chili, rice bowls, and dessert. I honestly wasn't sure what I was in the mood for, but I ordered their Jalapeño Jack burger, which comes with a 1/2 lb all natural angus beef thick patty, fresh jalapeños, pepper jack cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion. All the burgers are served with french fries, salad, or coleslaw. Instead of fries, pay an additional $3 to substitute onion rings, sweet potato fries, frings, or potato salad. Unless I didn't hear Nora, I wasn't asked how I wanted my burger cooked. My burger came out well done, I liked that it was substantial, the toasted bun was a good vessel, the toppings were fresh, and I thought that was a delicious burger. I recommend that they season the patty a little more. I thought the fries stood out because they were crispy, golden brown, seasoned perfectly, and when dipped in mayo or ranch, they complemented the burger. For my first visit to Chief's, I really enjoyed my burger and fries. Next time I visit Chief's, I want to try their Philly Cheesesteak. Hanging out at Chief's before my first train ride made for a good start to my trip, but that old dude talking smack about our President made me wish the Trump Train made a stop, so it would drown out his crying.
