    Brisket
    Hanafi M.

    I keep forgetting to place a review, primarily because the Brisket is that GOOD! Easy on the wallet too, and they know a little something something about Mac & Cheese. Try it. I promise you'll be satisfied to the extreme. Half-pound meat, any meat, $32.00 plus 2 sides. Save room 4 some Interesting desserts.

    Meal for 2, beans corn baked potato corn bread as the sides. Pulled pork, brisket, bbq chicken as the entrees.

    Had a great quiet July 4th lunch at this spot on the patio with our two dogs. The food is straight fire--we had the meal for 2 as seen in the pic. Definitely try their homemade "thousand Big Mac Chic Filet" sauce on the side, it's way better than the original. They also have spicy and reg BBQ sauce on the table, and the burgers are legit. Our server Maki (pronounced like the fish) was amazing, but honestly, the whole staff is top tier. She checked on us at least 5 times, kept the beer coming, and stayed on top of soda refills. Could not ask for better service. Between the World Cup specials and using the cohen DRg app, I did the math and you save about 7% for every $100 you spend. Great value and great vibs. If you want a solo test drive, definitely check out their Thursday all day burger, fry, and beer combo special also fire.

    3 tacos for Taco Tuesday

    Visiting San Diego and the fam needed lunch after a visit at SDSU. Looked on yelp and this came up as highly rated. When I drove up, I was a little nervous because the location seemed odd with it being primary residential apartments but there were a lot of cars especially for mid day Tuesday so we went with it. It was taco Tuesday so I got three tacos and the house margarita. Chicken breast taco was so good and the crispy cod was even better. Margarita was good, simple traditional flavor and for $6 it was a steal! We also ordered the street corn, burger with fries and Cobb salad. Cobb was one of the best and chicken was very flavorful rather than bland and dry. Service was fast and super friendly! Never had to wait looking for water, food, check. Fries were tasty and only tip is if you like them a little crisper then ask for that. Taste is great but depends on personal preference.

    Banana pudding? GET IT

    MAKI B is the best server, she is so friendly welcoming and on it. We came for a quick and random lunch on our anniversary and she was so fun and energetic. I feel like that's hard to find in food service, but everyone really was great from the second we waited in line to leaving. We had my mini dachshund with us and it was so hot outside and she welcomed us in to wait by the door. When our table wasn't ready they kept updating us and keeping us in the loop. The staff was friendly and so kind. I encountered the manager also and she was bubbly and fun. We had a real fun time laughing with Maki about an order of ranch, simple thing made fun. I can see how this can turn into a locals favorite spot. Will be back! Ambiance is cool, casual, fun and comfortable.

    We found out about this place in restaurant week. First plus point for them is they have the areas for the kids to play. My kids had a lot of fun. All of the staffs are very nice and friendly. To be honest, I didn't put too much expectation on the food before I came but it was a surprise for us. All of the food are delicious and the portion is big too. For appetizers we got brisket chili and best mac and cheese. It was so good. The classic burger is great. The meat is well seasoned and juicy. The best is part fowl sandwich, the sauce is a little spicy kick in and the chicken is juicy. I brought the left over home and the next day when I heat up, the chicken still moist and not dry. We got pecan pie and apple crisp. Both are great and not too sweet. I love the vibe here and will definitely come back

    I was craving a pastrami sandwich, and a friend suggested checking out Del's, located where Nicolsi's used to be on Highway 8. It's a great little spot. I was welcomed by a nice selection of local draft beers, which is always a plus. I ordered the Reuben, and it was done very well. The bread was great, and the sauerkraut had good flavor--I just wished there had been a bit more of it, same with the pastrami. Still, the flavor was excellent. For my side, I chose the coleslaw, which was fresh and had a nice crunch. They also offer a solid selection of BBQ meats that I definitely plan to come back and try. Overall, it's well worth a stop.

    I went with two friends who both grew up in the Midwest. They ordered the meatloaf, I got the pulled pork, and we all cleaned our plates. They got a ton of burger option ma too. Sides were on point. The vibe is relaxed, plenty of TV's to watched sports. One of my buddies even said it felt a tasted like back in the Midwest. Staff was super efficient and welcoming. Definitely coming back.

    I was craving comfort food at the end of the year, December 31st, 2025. I didn't know exactly what I wanted, but I decided on a barbecue place by the name of Del's Hideout in San Diego, off of Waring Road. It's the perfect place for comfort food, any kind of barbecue you could possibly want. They have everything and anything barbecue. I didn't want to feel really full or sick to my stomach, so I ordered two brisket sliders. I am not much of a meat eater; I usually eat chicken or fish, but I decided to try the brisket sliders. I also ordered a little cup of mac and cheese. Everything was flavorful, tasty, tangy, and very delicious. I had a very friendly waitress, and the decor is relaxed and casual. They play a great selection of pop and country for a pleasant atmosphere. They had their Christmas tree up and TVs throughout the restaurant with sports on, plus a good-sized bar area. It's just a perfect casual dining spot in a local neighborhood to have delicious barbecue. What are you waiting for? Maybe place this on your dining list for 2026? Happy New Year 2026! . Be safe and God Bless everyone! #sandiego #yelpsandiego #yelp #sandiegocalifornia

    I really appreciate how clean this restaurant is for a BBQ place. Too many of them get dirty and sticky but this place is clean and nice. They have their own parking lot which is perfect and it's accessible for people with disabilities. The service was amazing. Kind and knowledgeable staff all around. We got the platter for 2 that included chicken, pulled pork, brisket, corn bread, jalapeno hominy gratin, Mac and cheese, and beans. All about 60 bucks which is well worth it. The pork was by far the best, so juicy and flavorful. We also loved the chicken and brisket even if it was a tad on the dry side. The jalapeno hominy was AMAZING. Totally worth the up charge. What a unique little side dish, definitely something to try. The beans were also great and the Mac and cheese was pretty standard. I'm also super happy with the corn bread, I been to quite a few BBQ places and so far this corn bread has been as close to my mom's as I've found. Will definitely be back.

    Street corn and pulled pork sandwich
    Jennifer C.

    Came on a Wednesday as did not realize it was "kids eat free day" so the restaurant was packed with families. My friend and I sat at the bar. They have quick the extensive list of beers and I got a hazy ipa that was delicious. For food I got the pulled pork sandwich and opted for the street corn side. The food was delicious! The pulled pork had such a good flavor and didn't feel super fatty. Bbq sauce wasn't overloaded and the slaw added a nice crunch. The street corn was also surprising in a good way. I think they put a little cotija, lime and some spice as it had a little kick. Service was friendly! I think the only thing I'd say that wasn't great is the price is a bit high. It was $20 for just the sandwich and small side.

    Absolutely love this place. Amazing customer service as well as their food. I have ate here twice already with my family and we enjoyed it both times and more to come. The workers are very welcoming and talkative to their customers. I appreciated them suggesting hit items to order off the menu and got free banana pudding for a small delay. The place itself is family friendly and nostalgic. Only thing id say is that it's kinda hard to find parking easy, other than that its great!

    Tri-tip & Brisket combo plate with cornbread, bacon potato salad & collard greens
    Eliko S.

    We arrived at Del's at about 5:30. It was pretty busy and we were seated at the last four-top table next to the noisy and bright arcade games. This was not the ideal place to enjoy a meal, but we didn't have a choice at that moment. So we perused the menu and made some important meal choices. M. opted for the two meat combo plate with tri-tip and brisket, collard greens, bacon potato salad & corn bread. I ordered the SOB Salad and a side of Mac n' Cheese. Waters w/ lemon to drink. Our waiter was friendly and gave us good service up until our food was delivered, and then he got a few new tables and got a bit swamped. Sadly, although our food came out promptly, it was pretty meh. M. said the tri-tip was mostly fat, the brisket lacked seasoning, and the BBQ sauce was underwhelming and ketchup-forward. He liked the collard greens and the cornbread. I tried the pickles and they were quite sweet and they had a strong and unpleasant aftertaste. I normally love pickles, but these were not it. My salad was huge, and the portion of crispy chicken was generous. I'm honestly not mad about the salad. The mac n' cheese was mild and tasty, but it was lukewarm. I would have enjoyed it more if it was hot. The arcade games got kind of busy while we were eating, and it felt like being in a Dave & Buster's which was not the vibe I was going for. M. nearly got hit in the head by a Dad toting a huge Trader Joe's bag and playing a Ninja Turtles game with his kiddo. So the ambiance of this place is part sports bar - part BBQ resto - and part kid-friendly family funhouse. It's super if that is what you are looking for. After finishing our food, we sat idly for ten minutes, and then a Manager inquired how were were doing. We asked for a to-go cup for the Mac and the check. She asked one of her co-workers to take care of that for us. The co-worker Dulce (sp) came by with the little electronic Toast card reader and said that our bill was $68.34. That didn't seem right to me even with tax, so I asked her to print it out. She came back with a printout and handed it to me. Turns out that the restaurant charges a 5% supplemental fee to "offset rising costs." At the time, I didn't realize (until I researched it while writing this review) that there was a note at the very bottom of the menu that indicated that this charge would be added to checks, but we could opt out if we wanted... so keep in mind that this fee is added, but no one tells you about it. So, long story short, the food is quite expensive for what you get, and the actual taste & quality of the food is hit or miss. I really wanted to like Del's because I'd heard and read good things & we were looking for a great BBQ spot because M. loves it, but unfortunately, today's visit will be our last.

    Service was great. Waitress was holding the place down by herself very impressively…read more I got the famous rosiemac burger double patty and it was very delicious however I think the cheese may have overpowered it and I think next time I would choose one without the cheese completely. Onion rings were ok. Nothing to rave about honestly. The seasoning on it made them seem nicer but I think it just took away from a good ol fashioned onion rings, they also added a seasoning to the ranch to pair with the onion ring and I wasn't a huge fan. Next time I definitely want to try a different burger and opt for the elote fries or no fries at all. I'm just happy to finally be able to cross this place off my list of must tries, lol. Looking forward to my next visit

    WuzupWuzup! Location…read moreis fairly small, but does it pack that punch with flavor and great customer service. I've gone here several times and each experience has always lived up to the great expectation of each burger I've tried. Prices are a little up there given "the size" of the burgers, but you're paying for the ingredients and quality of it. The flavors of each burgers are truly incredible. Everything is fresh, cooked to perfection, and explained very well when brought to the table. I forgot the name of the burger I tried, but it was chicken based that was like a curry infused (it was yellow) and I thought it was a nice edition to the menu. Side note, you might want to wear gloves or eat with knife and fork as you'll be using a lot of napkins for sure (haha) I will continue to show the love for this place and enjoy this as one of my "special treat meals". Thanks for the wonderful experience.

The portions are big and the quality of the food is very good. The breading and seasoning on the chicken was tasty AF. Secondarily, the burgers are 1/4 lb and a single is plenty for a normal person. Lastly, the rings were thicc and GBD. Unfortunately, we sat in traffic for 3 hrs from OC, when it normally takes 1 1/2 hrs: We were really hungry, and Hodads met our needs. Regarding the ambiance, its a bit grunge but np for me. The name has a whole lot of nostalgia in SD. The service was friendly & warm. Our food came out quickly. The only downside was the chicken & rings needed some kinda sauce, but otherwise everything else was great. Would def return the next time I am in the area.

There is a nice ocean/bay breeze through the bar and plenty of tables and stools to sit at. TVs for watching sports are always on. The bartenders and wait staff are quick to take your order and friendly. Bicycle racks are outside to lock your bike to. This is a great local bar. Check it out!

    Rocky's Burgers is a casual burger spot located in Pacific Beach, known for its juicy burgers,…read moresimple menu, and convenient location in a busy beachside area with a laid-back, local vibe. Pros: I got the half-pound burger with fries and it was really good overall. The burger was super juicy, well-cooked, and had that classic hearty, satisfying taste you want from a solid burger spot. The portion size was generous, especially with the half-pound patty, and the fries were a great side to round out the meal. The location in Pacific Beach is also a big plus. It's in a great area with lots going on, so it's easy to grab food and walk around afterward or make it part of a beach day. The overall vibe of the spot feels casual and fitting for PB--nothing overly fancy, just good comfort food done right. Cons: Since it's in a busy beach area, parking and crowds can be a bit of a challenge depending on the time you go. It's more of a casual grab-and-go or quick dine-in spot, so don't expect a sit-down restaurant experience with a lot of space or quiet seating. During peak beach hours, it can also get pretty busy. Verdict: Overall, Rocky's Burgers is a great spot in Pacific Beach if you're craving a juicy, satisfying burger in a fun beachside area. The half-pound burger and fries hit the spot, and it's a solid choice for a casual meal before or after hanging out in PB.

    The legend himself, Mr. Anthony Bourdain, once said "good food is very often, even most often,…read moresimple food." In this case, The Friendly deserves its recognition as a no nonsense establishment that embodies Bourdain's wisdom. Let's get into it. Cuisine: 5/5. The Dirty Flat Top Cheeseburger and any of their pizzas by the slice merit waiting in a short line. Who would have thought that a medium size smash burger could pack in the flavor without breaking the bank? It's simple. It's flavorful. And it's affordable. You can enjoy the burger while your pie is being prepared. I've tried a few of the pizzas and they're all solid, and still better than Lou Malnati's in Chicago. Look, when you're jaded from overpaying for whack burgers in L.A. (Wally's & Marvito come to mind), it's easy to be shocked back into reality by good food at reasonable prices. Beverages: 4/5. Beer. Sodas. $1 off if you shotgun the beer. Say less. Service: 5/5. No frills. No performative friendliness. Just a direct style of communication and the efficiency of the staff. Thank you! Buen provecho

    The Friendly North Park is a great place for a delicious burger and a beer. And you simply cannot…read moresleep on the fries and onion rings either. This place is a rough diamond for certain, and I hope they never try to polish it up. My usual order is the Shitkicker burger, onion rings, and something on tap, though I've select a can now and again. The flavor of the burger never fails to satisfy, with perfect patties, melts cheese, and bbq sauce. So many burger joints do crumb crusted onion rings, so the Friendly's battered beauties are a treat of an alternative and always golden brown and crispy. I enjoy the patio setting, even in the summer heat, because there are usually enough shady seats to go around, and the family and dog-friendliness is a plus. Should I add the prices can't be beat? Enjoy the Friendly. Everything you want, nothing you don't.
