It was during the day so the bar wasn't too busy, we were all able to sit at the bar side by side. The bartenders were very friendly and super helpful and recommend a few items to try, we definitely wanted to try the San Diego fries which they said was a huge hit. We also had a round of drinks and a few orders of hot wings. The San Diego fries were in fact delicious. Sweet, salty spicy all the flavors combined, with crispy golden fries. The wings were equally as great, very tender, and each wing was evenly coated and sauce states. If you're looking for a midday or evening outing with Friends and just wanna relax, have some drinks and have a good time I definitely recommend coming here. Plenty of seating, very friendly staff and a clean restaurant with good vibes.

I've passed by this place so many times at night but had never actually stopped in to eat, and I was pleasantly surprised! It was definitely a vibe for a Sunday afternoon. They had a DJ playing, the atmosphere was lively and fun, and everyone was very friendly. Service was also excellent. We were seated quickly and our server was very attentive throughout our meal. We ordered a salad, flatbread, mac & cheese, and the loaded pulled pork fries. Everything was delicious and we really enjoyed the food. Overall, between the fun vibes, great service, ambiance, and delicious food, we had a really great time. I would definitely come back.

There is plenty of space, and a fairly open air location, so we didn't over heat, and had plenty of shade. Our server was super kind and gave us all the best recommendations! They even showed us where the SDCC menu corresponded to the normal menu. We ended up splitting the Big Boss burger, French fries, Mac and cheese, tots, Caesar salad, ribs with sauce on the side. It was recommended to mix the ribs with the Mac and cheese, and I have never been happier with a recommendation in my life. This is precisely why I like to ask for the servers favorites!

I loved the stained glass lights at the booths we sat at, they were super cute! We played foosball for a dollar which was fun while it lasted but it didn't give us enough balls to play an entire game. It's been pretty hot in sd and this place has a lot of large open windows that were all open, I usually love that feature but it was an abnormally humid night so we were all pretty hot and sweaty inside. Food was good with affordable prices too, we came here quite late at night, so we were limited to only their late-night menu, but everything was quite tasty, typical bar food. Our standout favorite was the maple sriracha wings for $10.61, their flavor is exactly like described and was a good balance of sweet and spicy! The Butter Burger $10.57 was good too but I think too rich and heavy for me. The prices were great tho! Parking is pretty terrible as is typical for downtown, but we walked from Punch Bowl Social and had Ubered to there at the beginning of the night. ---- Overall: a cool place to hangout, drink, and grab a bite late at night, I'm sad about not being able to play a whole game of foosball, but a generally great time

Only 6 lanes, so it's nice and cozy, doesn't get too loud. The strawberries and cream cocktail is a MUST try, so good. But honestly the star of the night was the $5 pound of fries. Oh my god, best fries I have ever had. It's been days and I'm still thinking about them. I would be willing to take the train down 2 hours from Orange County just to eat these fries. Please get them. Will be back!

For my husband's birthday he wanted to go bowling with our friends, I had no clue where to look, I…read moregoogle searched bowling alleys and came across Tavern + Bowl in East Village. You have to be within 7 days of your requested reservation date so as soon as I was closer I set up a reservation through Open Table. They do require a deposit which was fine because it made sure that we had the lanes needed for our party. I actually ended up calling the Tavern and Bowl to see if they had any earlier reservations and they told me if the person who requested an earlier time didn't pay the deposit I'd get the time slot. I am so lucky because these people didn't pay their deposit and we got the time and the lane. Cute thing, you can actually have kids come too, my niece who is 5 got to come along and they had a little device for her so she can push the ball, she ended up beating me. Everyone was so kind and service was so smooth and efficient, we got to bring donuts for our party and my husband and I ordered the carnitas nachos, they were delicious. Seriously such a great time, obviously this is before the Padres season so we lucked out on parking but this is a great place to host birthday parties. Thank you again for letting us have such a great time!

I heard two kids and a mom order like two plain burgers and I felt so sorry for them lol. Staff were exceptionally nice. They gave me 15% off and even free cornbread simply bc my order came out a few minutes late and I was getting hangry from walking around the zoo all day with no food. I realized I lost my phone in my uber and the sweet waitress allowed me to run to my hotel to get my wallet. They even offered to call my phone for me. Their hospitality was incredible :)

I used to order the pizza tots, but they took those off the menu. We ordered the Tater Skin tots, and the Padres Power Bowl. It was tons of food, we probably could've just ordered the tots.

So leave a little extra time when you come by.

Aside from that, they're generic normal tasting tater tots. For the burger, I liked the bun and other ingredients, but thought the savoriness of the meat was just okay. Also, can't say I'm a huge fan of the tiny lettuce whenever I see it. Overall, this joint is not bad, but I can think of very little about it that stands out. I don't feel that it fully leans into being a sports bar or dive bar or even as a burger joint. It's just.....a bar. Apparently, it prides itself as being an original coronado spot, but I didn't get that kinda vibe here. I don't know.

Their burgers are delicious!! They have a full bar so you can pick any shots. The mojitos are to die for. Parking is small but plenty of street parking. Service was fast you order at the bar.

We came midday and most of the tables were sticky and dirty even though it was 85% empty so the staff doesn't do a good job keeping it clean. While my guy got a beer to enjoy during the hot, summer day, I only like sours and they, sadly, didn't have a single sour on their menu. Small menu to choose from, but prices were pretty steep. My guy and I got the Totchos (beans and sour cream on side) with chicken (they were out of pork) at a coworker's recommendation. These were actually impressively good! The tots were crispy and only slightly oily. There was a decent amount of chicken and other ingredients involved and the portion size wasn't too bad. Getting the beans on the side was the right move because the tots stayed crispy the whole time. Honestly, I would come back here for the totchos again, but would enjoy it more next time if they had a sour to pair with it.

After…read morewatching a live music performance at the hotel, we were starving and found our way to Pizzeria Luigi. There is some indoor seating although the seating is mostly large picnic bench style or small two person table but not a lot of in between 4 person seating. Unfortunately, service was not great, the worker gave us a lot of attitude and seemed to not want to be there. The pizza itself was solid, I enjoyed the meat lovers and BBQ chicken but our slices were also not heated sufficiently so some slices were cold in certain spots. The garlic knots had good flavor but had the same heat problem. Perhaps it was the late time we came after 9 pm but I will not likely be back to Pizzeria Luigi.

After not being able to ignore it anymore walked around the corner and found True North. I was waiting for our party to finish shopping next door so figured I would pop in and grab a quick drink. You seat yourself and it was in between the morning and afternoon games so there was plenty of space. Grabbed a spot at the bar and was greeted by one of their two awesome bartenders T! T was so freaking friendly and when I ordered my go to morning drink 'a bloody maria' she immediately reacted with a huge smile and said you are going to love this. She told me about the other bartenders bloody mix and it did not disappoint whatsoever. It was flavorful spicy and delicious. We just got that and a few beers. They had TVs all over to watch every game so I imagine it's a go to spot for the area. A pleasant surprise.
