Today I returned to the wonderful D'Poly Taco Grill and Beer in El Centro where my epic hiking…read moreexpedition ended in failure, disappointment, and embarrassment a few weeks ago. I intended to travel the entire 2,600-mile length of the Pacific Crest Trail, but my adventure unceremoniously ended in El Centro under a tree about 60 miles east of my starting point. The paramedics told me that hiking is not for everyone. After a desperate two weeks of hiking with little food and water through BLM land tracks, old service roads, and desert washes, as best I can recall, I finally set up camp in El Centro under a farmer's tree near his washing line. Soon after the farmer called the police about my campfire, the authorities and my ex-wife found me in a state of delerium hosting a tea party under a large avocado tree wearing the farmer's wife's plus size nightgown while serving "cups of chai tea" to a sizable pile of rotten avocados and a rusty shovel that I thought was "Jan" from those Toyota commercials. My first real meal after being found by the authorities and my ex-wife was at D'Poly Taco Grill and Beer. D'Poly was the perfect welcome back to civilization as it has a spectacular menu full of delicious Mexican cuisine like street tacos, flautas, sopes and empanadas. The Lineman burrito is my absolute favorite. And they have a wonderful breakfast menu! It's fast casual dining, but it has a sort of classic and moody vibe that gives off a more upscale feel. Love it! A wonderful place to break free of your delusions. My ex-wife tried to tell me that hiking is not for everyone. Thankfully, the paramedics found my emergency contact list and phoned my ex-wife who showed up and broke me out of my stupor by making me drop my emotional support avocado, taking me by the shoulders and shaking me vigorously while yelling "it's over, it's over!" Ironically, that was the same way she told me we were getting divorced. I'm not a quitter, so it takes a while for me to give up. I've since tried many items on the D'Poly menu and everything is exceptional, though I do avoid adding avocado. It's just too soon. Thank you D'Poly Taco Grill and Beer! Five stars.

Their prices were higher tonight because it was sort of a fund-raiser, but usually a draft beer is $2 and a mixed drink maybe $5. They were selling burgers and dogs etc also, but after my 3 beers I opted for a bowl of the Louisiana Gumbo which hit the spot at $3 a bowl. My friend commented the place needed a face lift but I loved it just the way it is, all kinds of military posters, uniforms and memorabilia on the walls, murals painted in the hallways, etc. If my memory card hadn't gotten full before we got there I would have gotten some interesting pictures. I enjoyed listening to all the conversations around me. The place definitely had a friendly atmosphere and I would love to find a spot near me in San Diego I could feel this comfortable in.

This review is more centered on multiple and consistent bad Thursday karaoke ran situations.

Someone like me will be taking his business elsewhere on Thursday, and if the bar tenders have a say will not be happy about that. Just saying.

Compared to the cramped, dirty, try-hard bars in El Centro, this place is a welcome change. To the best of my knowledge, it hasn't been around very long, but I really hope its here to stay. The place is spacious, clean and has sofas to lounge on. I was told they have live music on certain nights, but there wasn't any when I was there. The staff is super friendly, the bartender was attentive and wasn't stingy when it came to making drinks. We even ordered a pizza from the bar, which ended up being surprisingly excellent. The bottom line is, if you haven't been to this club yet, you should make it a point to do so. There is so little in the way of "nightlife" in El Centro, and this place really is like a hidden gem.
