I'm surprised I haven't reviewed Bag of Beans yet! This is my 4th time coming here. As a Filipino,…read moreI really like their food!! Service is a little slow, but I think that just goes to show that the food is cooked fresh. Tonight we had the lechon kawali, the short rib adobo, the pancit, and the bulalo. All hits Friday nights are also karaoke nights! Someday I'll be brave enough to sign up!

This restaurant style is what's needed in the Filipino community. It's rare to find a sit down…read morerestaurant. Most places are casual fare in to-go boxes. BoB is the medium between upscale modern Filipino (Anime) and the casual places, allowing traditional dishes and a couple of American choices for those of us with picky eaters. I appreciate that. We were really excited to try this place. They accommodated our large party and the wait staff was attentive. The options were plentiful from adobo to pancit to sisig. Unfortunately, after we ordered, it went downhill from there. Dishes were late. Timing was off. There seems to be a disconnect with the back of the house. Even desserts were late (scoops of ice cream), turon, all prepared ahead of time, not prepared to order. I really want this restaurant to succeed. It has so much potential. Beautiful decor, good food, good variety, plenty of parking, layout is clever, pleasant and attentive staff,,etc. From what I can see online, their programming is creative. So what's missing?

This is a 2 part review. Last week they got my order wrong and today they forgot my order…read more Last week I ordered 12 roll tacos and I got fries instead. When I called in they told me to email the business and they would send me a refund. I would've been fine with a free drink or something closer to the value since I kept the fries and the roll tacos are more expensive. I emailed and didn't hear back. Today I ordered fries and they never made my order it wasn't until the third time I checked on it that they realized they never made my fries. Which were skimpy to say the least. I don't know if it is because they were rushed but $23 for fries and a bev is wild when they give you half a tacos worth of meat. Probably won't be coming back here.

First time at this location, it is very spacious and clean for the most part . The bathroom needs…read morehelp and attention, it wreaks of urine and is old and dingy . It needs help .. I like the outdoor seating and the access to exit through there as well. However, the door to the outside needs some WD40 it is heavy and hard to open when you have loads of food . I did enjoy all the memorabilia, Makes me proud to be a Native San Diegan. The food is fully loaded , fresh and delicious. My son absolutely loved the Carne Asada chips , the chips were so fresh . I couldn't stop eating them . It helps that they have the kiddy vending machines , my son alone for that reason wants to eat out more at Pollo grill ... I would like to see additional staff helping at the counter during busy hours .

They have a great happy hour menu and the portions are hearty. We shared 4 plates for 3 people and…read moreeveryone was full after. The food tasted great, the Brussels sprouts were sweet which was new but good. The wontons had a crispy outside with a soft inside and the sauce paired nicely. I'm not a fan of shrimp but I had one and it didn't have an overwhelming fishy taste. Not a big fan of the Tex-mex egg rolls, they seem to just be a knock off chilis southwestern egg rolls but the ingredients were too big and it fell apart easily. Overall the food was good. The seating was for 4 people and we only had 3, I don't see how 4 people's food can fit on that small table but it wasn't an issue. Everything was clean, the staff was nice but avoidant. We didn't have utensils for one person and it took until the food came out to have someone stop for long enough to ask for it. We saw them pass by several times, I am sure they were super busy so it's understandable. I would go back, they have great deals and good food.

Cheesecake Factory located in Chula Vista in the mall so parking is easy. We went for Happy Hour…read moreeats. They had a range of eats for $10.99. Customer service was good until we had food packed to go. Food had some challenges, it was just ok... We ordered: HH burger - came with lettuce and pickles on the side. HH hot spinach and cheese dip - came with thin tortilla chips HH calamari - came with cocktail sauce and a garlic sauce Burger came with melted cheese but, all the veggies on the side. It would have been better with just a fully constructed burger as it got messy trying to add the lettuce and pickles. Spinach dip was delish. It was sad that when our waiter packed it up to go, it was tossed in a container with the condiment containers and looked like slop after we opened it up. PISS POOR PACKAGING TO SAY THE LEAST! To open a to-go container to enjoy your left overs and your dip was mixed in with plastic containers...unacceptable in my opinion! Put to go items in appropriate containers! Calamari was practically all stuck together in a ball form with just a few pieces separated! ABSOLUTELY SLOPPY in food preparation!

The appetizers were delicious and the jimbayla grows on you...it gets better as you keep eating! I didnt really care much for the pizza, but if i had to choose, the works was better because it was less sweet. I also enjoyed a cake flight which was delicious! The classic, and bacon maple were my favorite! The chocolate could have been better. Service was good and overall my experience was pleasant! They also have a nice happy hour menu that I wouldn't mind coming back for!

I went through the drive-thru line and ordered a simple you-pick-two with chicken on the side for a…read moresalad. Not only did the drive-thru take a long time, but they forgot to put my chicken on the side. On top of that, I had ordered chips as my side but they gave me a baguette. At the window, I asked for the chips I ordered. The lady tried to charge me for them despite it being my original order. The manager then came to the window, demanded I give back the baguette that I had already touched as I checked my order initially when they handed it to me. For an establishment to mess up my order not once, but twice, I had hope for them to correct their mistake by giving me the correct side order without charging me extra for it. Leilani, the manager, was harsh and rude, and had no desire to correct a mistake they had made. I felt disrespected and awkward as a customer just trying to get the item I had originally asked for without having to pay an "extra fee" when it already comes with the meal I paid in full for. I have never had an issue with Panera Bread or their customer service for the last 11 years until today. Extremely disappointed.

Panera Bread (to-go, dinner) was a disappointment today…read more I placed a to-go order for four sandwiches and two soups (broccoli cheddar and tomato). Two of the sandwiches were the Toasted Frontega Chicken, and they looked nothing like the menu photo. More importantly, both soups were served cold, which is an immediate quality-control miss for a brand built on soups and sandwiches. Service raised a hygiene concern. After we used the self-checkout, wanted some pastries so we went to the cashier - chose what we wanted they handled cash and then grabbed our pastries using the same gloves. Gloves are only useful when they are changed at the right moments. The dining area itself appeared clean, but between the inaccurate build, cold soups, and sloppy glove handling, I will stick to the drive-thru next time.

Food so good had to leave my first review on yelp…read more I've been living in SD for about 3 years now and have struggled finding good pizza, most of it is overpriced for the quality. But these guys are reasonably priced and the quality of the food was amazing. I got 2 pizzas ( buffalo chicken ) and ( plain ) for my wife and I and we both admit this was phenomenal. I also got some wings ( also reasonably priced ) other places often casually charge $2.5 per wing for some trash wings. But these wings were good quality not the gigantic ones that are juiced up. The wings were smaller and more natural as they should be. Definitely recommend this'll become my families pizza spot for sure.

I don't usually write reviews, but this place truly deserves one…read more Bambino has earned a customer for life. We ordered the Meats Pizza, spaghetti, a mushroom calzone, and a salad, and every single dish was outstanding. The pizza crust was absolutely delicious, the calzone was perfectly made, and the spaghetti sauce was one of the best I've had in a very long time. You can truly taste the quality and care that goes into the food. What made our visit truly unforgettable, though, was the customer service. A young man, only 14 years old, helped us, and I was genuinely amazed by his professionalism. His warm personality, calm demeanor, and the way he spoke to us reflected a level of hospitality you would expect at a first-class restaurant. Even though the restaurant was very busy, he never made us feel rushed. Since it was our first visit, he patiently answered every question, explained the menu, described the portions, and helped us choose exactly what we wanted. His confidence, kindness, and genuine desire to help made our experience truly exceptional. If you appreciate outstanding food and exceptional customer service, Bambino is a place you should absolutely visit. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. Great food brings people in, but exceptional service creates lifelong customers--and that's exactly what happened with us.
