Had a great experience at Maryjane's during Comic-Con weekend. It was definitely a busy time, but Siyovush behind the bar was amazing. He was friendly, professional, and really knew how to make guests feel welcome. One thing that stood out was that he actually remembered us when we came back, which made the experience feel more personal and special. He made some excellent cocktails, and his recommendation of the Old Fashioned was a great choice -- perfectly balanced and really well made. We also tried the Classic Burger with onion rings, and it was a great recommendation. Everything came together for a fun and memorable visit. Great atmosphere, great drinks, and even better service. Siyovush definitely helped make our Comic-Con experience one to remember. read more

Pretty slow on a Thursday at 3:30, which was great for me! Sat up at the bar and grabbed 3 carne asada street tacos. Street tacos were super tasty! My chief complaint, and the reason for not a 5* review.....too much protein. I can't believe I just typed that. There was just too much steak that some fell out of every bite. I'll admit, this is the absolute best problem to have. Nick was super friendly, the absolute best blend of attentive and staying away. I'll be eating these again for sure. read more

Great bloody marys! They have a house made mix and it's delicious. The pineapple mimosa was great as well, more champagne than juice is always a good thing. Great location in gas lamp district. Good service at the bar. Will be back! read more

No wait mid morning. Service was quick and food came out quickly. Should have ordered something different. Ordered biscuits and gravy which included an egg on top. I added a side of bacon. I ordered the egg over hard. Perfectly cooked. The yolk was just set. The biscuits weren't warm and weren't flaky. The gravy was thick and almost gluey. Bacon had good flavor and texture but wasn't cooked to order and was just warm. Presentation was nice. read more

Stayed at the hotel and had free breakfast included as part of our stay. While it was better than continental breakfasts served at other hotels, the meal was okay but I wouldn't personally have chosen to eat here otherwise. We started off with hazelnut lattes which were the highlight of the meal. I ordered the chicken and waffles. The chicken was soft & tasty and waffles were what you typically expect. My husband tried the Two cakes and eggs which came with two eggs, pancakes, bacon, and sausage. He said it was okay but the pancakes were very dry. Service was decent. Place was cute and reminded me of an old diner. read more

Our server was very polite and friendly. We asked about try popular items on the menu and what she recommended. She said the chicken sandwich from the secret menu was her favorite and recommended to get extra sauce! Which I did..and she was right! Soo good. We also got the emoji pancakes! Kids will love this. Super cute and you can never go wrong with pancakes The Cali Tots were also another dish we tried. I would order an over easy egg on top, next time but it was still good. The Country Benny, was delish. Can never go wrong with gravy and biscuits. The egg was not as runny as I wanted to be but it was still good. A MUST!! The cookie skillet! Warm cookie and icecream..soooo yummy! The dining area was very spacious. A lot of tables and booths to sit in. Very classic! They have an outdoor patio to dine in also to enjoy the SD sunlight. They also have a bar and some TVs around the area. Located in Downtown inside the Hard Rock hotel. Definitely a good spot to go to for brunch or before a Padres game. read more

Decided on breakfast before the World of Coffee event at the Convention Center. First time dining here on an early Sunday morning. There was no wait and service was quick, I ordered the Avocado Toast and they let me substitute the fruit for hash browns. Great switch as the hash browns were so crispy and perfect. Avocado toast with arugula and poached eggs was delicious. Great breakfast spot when in downtown. read more

I was excited to try this place as a first timer. It was during comic con and well we wanted to sit outside to people watch with all the cos play that happens. The hosts could spruce up on her people skills... it's a bummer that we started off a little shaky. BUT as soon as we were seated things started looking up! Our waitress LALA was amazing. Attentive, kind, and speedy. Food was ok! I got the ACAI bowl it was delicious, my husband ordered build your own omelette he said it was ok. The restaurant is decorated sheik and modern. Hubby said like 70's 80's diner. I loved the seats they were purple (my fav color) come and try it out for your selves and hopefully the beginning of your experience is better! read more

This is a cool "diner" with a modern flair and fun vibe. The main entrance is on 5th Avenue, with a second entrance from inside the Hard Rock Hotel. The decor has a rock music theme, which is fun to look at the wall art. On the north side of the diner is a full bar and high top bar seating. The remainder of the seating is tables for two/four people or booths on the south side. You can request sidewalk seating, which is directly beside the archway leading to the Gaslamp District. This is a great place for people-watching and enjoying a good meal or drinks. By the hotel entrance, is a register for quick grab-and-go coffee, tea, muffins, fruit, yogurt, and snacks, etc. One of my favorite meals is Avocado Toast or Eggs Benedict with a crispy hash brown "cake" on the side. Walk-ins are welcome, the staff are welcoming and friendly. Don't forget to tell'em that Rosemary sent ya! read more

Cute brunch spot in San Diego! We had originally planned to go elsewhere but walked by this cute diner and decided to stop in. The food was tasty and seating was ample. The chicken and waffles were the perfect balance between sweet and savory. The Elvis French Toast was a bit too loaded up on peanut butter which somewhat compromised the overall taste but was otherwise tasty. Would come again! read more

Ordered the BALT with homemade potato chips and found it very underwhelming. It lacked any real flavor, and the garlic aioli tasted like plain mayonnaise. The food felt extremely overpriced for the quality and taste, likely because of the location. The menu is also very limited. On the positive side, the service was decent and friendly, and the ambiance was clean and bright. read more

The service was very good. I was served by a very friendly male waiter who had a great sense of humor. It took quite some time to cook my Tijuana Benedict however so I deduct one star only for the prolonged waiting time. Also, my cappuccino was poorly made - excessive froth. However, the Mexican-style eggs Benedict had good flavor and texture. Plus, the restaurant ambiance was spacious and not loud. read more

This restaurant is located right next to the San Diego Convention Center, and it seemed like a convenient spot to grab lunch in between conference sessions. My hostess and waitress were awesome, and the diner vibe of the restaurant was fun. I ordered a mocktail which was pretty good. However, I waited about 45 minutes for my order of a *salad* and in the end, it ended up being disappointing - not worth the wait at all! By the time my food came out I was already running late for my next conference session and I only got to eat a few bites before taking the rest to-go, which I could barely bring myself to finish later because it didn't taste good. Very frustrating, and would not recommend coming here. read more

The first thing I need to cover, the staff was understaffed yet the servers were delightful and they were as friendly as they could be. This is a management issue staffing properly. The ambience acceptable the place is clean It took over 24 minutes to get my cup of soup with me sitting at the lunch counter, not at a table. They have a prioritization problem. They prepare on how the orders came in instead of looking at the orders GET the easy ones out. The cup of chicken noodle soup, frankly was a salt lick, in fact a salt lick would have had less salt. I counted the little pieces of chicken in my Cup of soup, there were exactly 11 pieces and if you look at the photo, you can see the size of those little pieces. and it was more of a broth. It is a shame. I have written very, very few bad reviews. This matter had to be pointed out, especially paying $11+ for that little cup of soup and a soda. Plus this type of food preparation should not be tolerated in the Gas Lamp District which is a gathering place for the tourist who desire the San Diego culinary experience read more

Ate here years ago and was not impressed. However, this review is based on the service from the hostess on 7/26/26 around 3pm. Our party was in the bar area of the hotel and we were trying to get in and were kind of lost. It is comic con weekend and we get it. However, we tried going through a main entrance and the security guard sent us to go through this restaurant. I explained to the hostess we were told to enter this way. She rudely said no you can't enter through here. I just said okay and turned to walk away and she said sarcastically you can't enter through tomorrow. Okay nice. Don't worry we won't return tomorrow or ever. If you work in customer service and hospitality then have those skills please. read more

I stopped by Maryjane's Cafe at the Hard Rock in San Diego during the busy Comic-Con weekend, just looking for a quick and decent breakfast before hitting the convention floor. It turned out to be a massive mistake. I ordered their breakfast burrito, and it was hands down the worst one I have ever tried to eat. The ingredients tasted cheap and completely flavorless, and the entire thing was a soggy, poorly assembled mess. To add insult to injury, this completely regrettable excuse for a meal cost a staggering $22. I understand that restaurants inflate their prices during a massive event like Comic-Con, but the audacity didn't stop there. When I asked for some salsa to try and salvage the bland bites, they actually charged an extra $1 for a ridiculously tiny, thimble-sized plastic cup of it. Paying $23 before tip for an inedible breakfast and a microscopic side of salsa is an absolute joke. Save your money, skip Maryjane's, and grab food literally anywhere else in the Gaslamp--you cannot do worse. read more

Yummy to our tummy. We needed a quick bite to eat and grabbed a Club Sandwich, Fries and Onion rings to share. We swapped out the mayonnaise for garlic aïoli. Boy was that a great swap out. The sandwich had a lot of meat and bacon. No skimping on the meat there. The fries were usual fries, but seasoned to perfection. The onion rings were very crispy and had a great onion flavor on the inside. We did ask for ranch and the ranch was very good. However, the chipotle aïoli was the best. We'd definitely eat at Mary Jane's again, when in San Diego! read more

Such a cute little diner! Service was excellent during lunch time. I ordered Fish & Chips and they were good but not great. It was a massive serving.

I'll definitely be back when I stay at the Hard Rock since it's so convenient. read more

Maryjane's is a breakfast option inside the Hard Rock hotel, which is located a couple blocks from Petco Park. On a regular Thursday in November, I was seated right away. I ordered the Huevos Rancheros with eggs over easy - the dish was quite watery but with good flavors. Theres a layer of watery beans and then a layer of watery salsa. It needs either another tortilla or crispy chips because the dish feels sloppy and one dimensional. It comes with "mj's breakfast potato" which buyer beware, are not breakfast potatoes. Instead, it's a flattened manufactured potato patty that comes off the palate tangy and processed. At least with a McDonalds patty there is some crunchy and feeling with it. Next time I want to try the Chilaquiles because I heard someone else really like them. That's all. read more

I stopped by Maryjane's located across the street from the Bayfront in the heart of the Historic Gas Lamp District in San Diego. I'm not quite sure how, but they are definitely related to the Hard Rock Cafe franchise. The menu items are similar to their parent company with a few subtle variations that most but the ardent fans of The Hard Rock Cafe would notice. I ordered the Original HRC (no, not Hillary Clinton) burger. It was as expected, cooked to perfection and very good. I also opted for a side salad instead of fries as I'm trying to take a few extra pounds off in preparation for Summer. I really enjoyed it here and I'll definitely be back when I'm in town next time. read more

Had brunch here last Sunday and we had a wonderful experience. Our waitress was great - super attentive and very pleasant. We were pleasantly surprised at the many options on their menu and although we came in at 930am, they were able to accommodate non-breakfast options. We ordered grilled cheese with tomato soup, fish sandwhich and Eggs Benedict with chicken and all of these dishes came with huge servings and were delicious! Thank you to Larry and to your staff for such wonderful service! read more

Expensive for pancakes, two eggs, sausage and bacon. I likely would have been less critical had they at least used real syrup vs corn syrup with chemicals. There are a few places down the street that have exceptional free range eggs, real syrup and pancakes. read more

Going into the Gaslamp is like going to a Rock and Roll concert with the many people that are going to place and others trying to get to the many eateries and the pubs which can be the same things that you see at a concert when you see so many people the crowds. In the Gaslamp there is one place that you can go and have the best times with the flare of the 70s style the lighting with the many lights with the many pictures of the Rock and Roll singers it's the Hardrock around the corner you come to Mary Janes Restaurant with one of the best Starbucks that is close by there are many places you have with great food and some of the ones that have Karaoke on the weekends. Withy the Hard Rock Hotel there is one of the best restaurants which has the feel of the coffee shop feel when you come to the restaurant that gives you the feel of the coffee and the small bar feel. From the many coffees shop you do see the many bars' areas where you cand go and order food at and still have the best breakfast while you have the early morning breakfast cocktail with pancakes or to have a loaded burrito or the best pancakes, and the best waffles bacon with the best homemade sausage. MaryJane's is one restaurant where you can go and have the best food with the drink specials, they have bottomless mimosas on certain days the perfect breakfast drink with a great tasting coffee to wake you up in the morning. The many times that I have had breakfast at Mary Janes you could see the many dishes about the restaurant with the many patrons that were having the egg dishes bacon and eggs with toast many others having the waffles the best ones I have ever had great with the home-made sausage. Great customer service with such great food with the pancakes that I had tried it was one of the hardest choices yet with both combos some of the best in breakfast dishes. The menu of the Restaurant is a little pricey for somethings with certain dishes you do pay a good price and some plates you can get combos for low prices there are others can be little expensive. Mary Janes in the Gaslamp is the best location and the closeness to the Convention Center I see a lot of the conventioneers come to Mary Janes the best in burgers and the great burgers and the homemade Potatoe chips they make fresh livens a great combo where can you find homemade chips. The leather booths and the coffee shop feel it's like the way rocks stars get away and head over to a coffeeshop relaxing and having dinner. The Hard Rock is one of the best places to have such a fabulous restaurant after which they do have some of the personal guitars and the music of the beetles. As a Yelp Elite Reviewer with the love of Rock and Roll where the food is connected to a place that has music connects to the feel of coffee shop with a restaurant thrown you have the perfect rock and roll restaurant. Located in the heart of the Gaslamp and close to the San Diego Trolley on 5th Ave you can walk down and catch the trolley. Mary Janes Restaurant is one of the best with such great food and a great place to have groups and friends that you're meeting plenty of room in the restaurant. Like Sammy Haggar Best of both worlds its Mary Janes the best of Both Worlds. read more

The service was great, cute atmosphere, bright and cheery. Looked like a great place for breakfast. Unfortunately I ordered Chiliquiles with scrambled eggs and my husband Eggs Benedict. My eggs were barely room temperature, not freshly prepared, and my husbands cold also so we both sent them back. My 2nd plate was no better! Made no sense to send another plate out with eggs that may have been cooked hours before and sat around to become cold. I left and went to Starbucks. My husband stayed and had his, they did at least give him 50% off his plate. read more

This place has such potential, but my friends and I did not have the best experience. We were downtown to celebrate at the Gaslamp Dog Festival over Christmas and by the time the pet parade was about to start we were starving. Our plan was to find a spot that we could eat lunch with our pups while watching the Pet Parade. We stumbled upon Maryjane's and the patio was fairly empty with plenty of room for our group and pups so we took a chance. They had a decent sized menu with breakfast and lunch options, so we figured there would be something for everyone. I opted for the classic club, and there were 2 or 3 other sandwiches ordered at our table. I kid you not, we ended up being 1 table of MAYBE 5 in the entire establishment and we were not only forgotten about on multiple occasions, we were sitting there for an exhorbiant amount of time. It does not take that long to make a couple of sandwiches, especially when the place is empty. We had to go in and ask them to please take our drink order, then go back inand ask them to please come take our food order, then go back in and ask for refills, and then go back in for the last time and ask if we could get our check to pay. Each time we had to go in, the overstaffed employees, were just standing around chatting it up and then almost acted like we were bothering them. The food was good enough, but the service was literally awful and we were very disappointed. read more

We went here for lunch and my mom and sister got the nachos. They had the fake squeeze cheese and some chopped tomato on stale tortilla chips. My mom's carne asada on top looked like cat poop. They were like gas station nachos, I could not believe they were served in the restaurant of the Hard Rock Hotel. Also the decor was "movie" themed, with cheap party city style decorations for a child's birthday party. We ate here last year when it was SpongeBob themed and the food and decor was great!

Maryjane's is the cafe style restaurant inside the Hard Rock hotel in San Diego and while I realize that we can't expect much from that type of place, usually the Hard Rock name provides a bit more quality. We went on an afternoon after a Padres game and it was almost completely empty. While we were seated promptly it took close to 15 minutes for anyone to come and take our order. We just had deserts and these were lower quality than what you would find at a chilis. Freezer burned taste and not worth the calories. read more
