    Guys! This place is so yummy! I was coming back from the Padres game and didn't really want to go sit at a restaurant so I stopped here to grab some food to go to take back to my hotel. I wanted something, healhy-ish, did I get that? I don't know, it's mediterranean food and that alone makes it tenfold healthier than other places. They list the calories on their menu, which you'll either love or hate but I appreciated it. So I took a seat at their bar to place a to go order and the girl behind the bar was just awesome, the one from Nashville who recently moved to San Diego, hey girl! She totally hooked me up with explaining their entire menu to me and gave me recommendations. I got the Medi bowl with chicken, quinoa, pickled red onions, feta, tzatziki, tomatoes, cucumbers, garbanzo beans, which appeared to be fried when I got them, maybe or roasted, not sure. It came with some pita on the side, it was perfect, delicious, fresh, flavorful, hit the spot. It was ready very quickly, super satisfied, big portion. The restaurant itself was cool, causal you know? Very funky, vintage, hip decor. Big fan. Check this place out.

    Ambiance was great! Staff was really nice too but the food was just not as authentic in flavor for Mediterranean food. Honestly the sweet potato fries were my favorite! Bowl was pretty good. I think if I go back I would check it out for a happy hour. Their deal looked great!

    I was craving Greek food after my Seaworld trip and found this place on Yelp. There's paid street parking in front. We did a pick up order and it was ready when we arrived. They were jamming some cool hop vibes and this place seems super chill to hang out. I got the Doner basket mixed meat, extra protein for $2, and mixed fries, my bf got the 12 piece wings. The server was super friendly. The food was fantastic and worthy of the phenomenal rating. I loved all the sauces. My plate was loaded with food. It did come with a falafel which was perfectly crisp just not my thing. I really liked the gyro meat, next time I'll skip the chicken shwarma. I loved I got the fries with all the fixings plus some lettuce. The wings were seasoned so well and the best I've ever had. This is my new favorite place.

    My mouth ate before my phone. Delicious. We did the monday night special. Beer + gyro + side for only $20. It was all delish. Sweet potato fries were fire!!!

    Final decided to try Spitz in pb and I was honestly surprised. My friends and I ordered a wrap and a salad, and both were pretty good. The portions were much bigger than we expected so we didn't finish and had leftovers. They have an indoor and outdoor area and you go up to order food and they'll bring it out to u with a number. The staff was nice and the food was good and felt pretty healthy for Mediterranean street food. I will be back!

    This places puts cava to shame! If I ever crave Mediterranean food- hands down coming here! I had to force myself to stop eating bc it was SO SO good! Idk what they cook the fries in, but hands down best fries I've ever had!!! 10 Im obsessed!!!!! Chris and Aiden are great!!!

    The Spitz Gyro
    Olyvia K.

    We were so happy that we came to Spitz on a weekday between 3PM-6PM because they have an incredible happy hour! My husband and I got $9 gyros and $3.50 pita strips and humus! I saw a sign about Tuesday specials and those are really great too. Service was super fast! The seating was nice where you can sit at high top chairs, a booth, or a standard table with wooden chairs while getting fresh air for the open garage door. There is cool eclectic decor with neon lights and vibrant art on the walls. We really loved the gyros! The pita bread is so good. The hummus with the pita strips was good too. Great prices especially during happy hour! It was super fast from when we got our food and staff were really amazing. Highly recommend!

    Tried the Berliner wrap and the street cart wrap with regular fries. The fries were a bit salty, but everything else tasted great. The staff was super friendly and helpful while ordering and even checked on us after we got our food, which you don't usually get at a fast-food-style spot. My favorite was the Berliner wrap--very generous portions and great for sharing. Tip: sign up online with your phone number to get a buy-one-get-one offer. Great location!

    Large order of thin cut fries w/ garlic aioli

    I'm only giving Spitz 4 Stars because this review is based solely on the food. We ordered on the Spitz website and our food was delivered via Uber. Had the OG Gyro and Thin cut French Fries. The Gyro was substantially filled with fresh vegetables, tasty and tender chicken. Large order of perfectly seasoned fries were filled to the top of the bag. Fries came with two containers of delicious garlic aioli perfect for dipping your fries in. A great take out experience from Spitz!

    This place is sooooo good. Lots of amazing deals going on throughout the week and the food is absolutely delicious. Ordered a wrap and a bowl to split with my boyfriend and it was more than enough food for one sitting. Lots of awesome sauces and even a great selection of drinks. Our bartender was great! I'll definitely be back.

    This place is RAD. Very friendly staff, great beer, and good food. I'm surprised theyre not busier!! Super vibey art and murals and a very open space. I just wish they'd ditch the seed oils. Happy hour is great, as well as the lunch specials. Highly recommended.

    I was in the area and needed some lunch, and saw this pop up on Google Maps. It was a Tuesday and around 3:30p, right before Christmas Eve. The place was empty; the cashier was super friendly! There's a Happy Hour special on weekdays starting at 3 through 6. So my partner and I got the OG Gyro, Spitz Gyro and the fried pita strips, for a total of ~$30, including tip. They've self-serve water, I appreciate not having to wait for water service, in case they're busy. The music is lovely, there's no vocals so it feels more vibey and lo-fi. No need to talk over the music. Okay but the food: do not skip the fried pita strips. They're so good, the texture reminds me of beignets, fluffy and a tad crispy! The seasoning is delicious, I wish there were more after I finished them. The OG Gyro is exactly what you'd expect: fresh lettuce, tomato, feta, very fresh and healthy with beef and lamb. The Spitz Gyro is more savory and saucy, I thought of it as tomato-y with fries and beef and lamb.

    In a sea of bars and restaurants on Garnet St in San Diego, Spitz stands out. It's a fun location, with decor quintessentially San Diego. You just walk up, order, and either sit at the bar or a table and wait for your food. It's a nice, indoor outdoor vibe. The front bar area is very aesthetically pleasing, like hanging out in someone's chill living room. They also play really good throwback and chill music in the background. The food is halal, with plenty of vegetarian, vegetarian, and gluten free options. I especially loved the sweet potato fries and their many sauce selections. They also have a daily happy hour, and their sangria is house made. The draft beer list is better here than a lot of places. And best of all, everyone who works here has always had a smile. I really enjoy coming here, and they're very dog friendly.

    Absolutely phenomenal. I've been in San Diego all week and have eaten at several restaurants, and…read morethis was by far the best meal I've had. The seafood was incredibly fresh and perfectly seasoned. I actually stumbled upon this place by accident after I first stopped at Ms. B's Coco Shop down the block, but they had closed their kitchen a little earlier than I expected. Shaq recommended I give this place a try and even walked me over to introduce me to Ben. Ben gave outstanding seafood recommendations, was incredibly friendly, and knew the menu inside and out. I was already leaning toward what I ordered, and he reassured me I was making a great choice. His knowledge of the menu and genuine hospitality made the experience even better. The lobster and shrimp roll was hands down the best I've had in years. The mahi slider was just as impressive--perfectly seasoned, lightly breaded, and fried to perfection without the excessive batter that so many places use. Every bite let the fresh fish shine through. The atmosphere was exactly what you'd want from a beach bar--laid-back, welcoming, and fun. It felt like the kind of place where you could spend the day at the beach, walk over for a drink and some amazing food, and just relax. The entertainment setup was impressive too, with huge TVs and a really cool in-wall fireplace-style display. I can only imagine this place is the spot to be on game day. Overall, this is now at the top of my list whenever I'm craving seafood in San Diego. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town.

    Stopped by Guava Beach on a walk with friends to grab a margarita and was not disappointed!…read more This spot is a great stop during the day in Mission Beach! In addition to classic margaritas, Guava Beach also has a variety of unique margaritas! I ordered the Pink Dragon made with Nosotros Reposado, Triple Sec, dragon fruit syrup, Guava Beach's own custom-made margarita mix with a black lava salt rim and topped with a dragon fruit wheel garnish - sooo good! They also have an extensive cocktail list. We got some appetizers, including the waffle fries (massive portions) and chips and guacamole, which were both delicious! Definitely will be back to try more margs soon!

    To echo what others have said, parking is probably the biggest downside. The shop is located along…read morethe sidewalk in front of residential complexes, so there's no dedicated parking lot. Street parking is your best bet, though it may take a little patience. That said, once you walk in, the experience gets much better. I was immediately greeted with a smile, and the women working behind the counter were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The space is bright, clean, and has plenty of tables, making it a nice spot to study, work, or catch up with a friend. There was a small mix-up with my order- they made my drink hot instead of iced, but they fixed it right away with no issues. I ordered the lavender tea latte and was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. The lavender flavor was noticeable without being overpowering, and the drink itself was light and smooth. Overall, aside from the minor order mix-up, I had a pretty positive experience. Great customer service, a cozy atmosphere, and a delicious drink.
