    Buffalo wings
    Shelby K.

    We came up for a staycation and decided to go to the Regal Seagull after seeing positive reviews and a variety of options on the menu. We went around 9:30pm and ordered hard cider, a chicken sandwich, two-sausage sampler (since they are known for those) and buffalo wings. Everything was fabulous. My son said the grilled chicken sandwich was the best he's ever had. My husband enjoyed the buffalo wings, and we all thought the Portuguese pineapple sausage and jalapeño cheddar sausages were fabulous. The Padres game was on the TVs inside which was perfect. Service was good and the place is decorated in sports decor. They have a mustard bar and they give you a name (someone else's, like a tv character) rather than a number for your order. The place had a lot of character. We enjoyed it a lot and will definitely come back. We sat inside but the patio was also lovely and inviting.

    Food, drinks, vibe, service.. everything here was great. We came on a busy Sunday, and despite it being pretty busy, we received great service and our food was tasty. I'll definitely be back in the future to try some more food items.

    Stumbled into The Regal Seagull on a random weeknight and hit the jackpot--it was trivia night. No plans, just vibes, and somehow ended up in a full-blown competition over 90s sitcom facts. The crowd was fired up, the questions were just the right mix of clever and absurd, and the whole energy of the place was contagious. When you order food, they don't call out your name--they hand you a hilarious alias. I was Batman, and my friend was Archie Bunker. Every time someone's name got called, the whole bar chuckled. It's a small touch, but it makes the whole place feel fun and lighthearted. Now let's talk food: the portions are huge, and you have to try the green bean fries. Crispy, seasoned perfectly, and addictive. We shared a few dishes and honestly could've fed a third person without trying. Great craft beer selection, too. Heads up though--trivia night fills up fast. We got lucky with a table, but about 20 minutes later people were hovering like seagulls at a beach picnic. Get there early if you want a seat. Overall, quirky, delicious, and unexpectedly competitive in the best way. Would absolutely go again--maybe next time I'll be Gandalf.

    Sundays are so special at the Regal! Sports galore! Football ( Vikings primary) but they also show a wide variety of games making the customer experience special. The staff smile, Laugh and joke. Breakfast burritos that $hit slaps!!! The kitchen crew are 10 If you're looking for a lime to ruin your beer then go next door. The beers are so good (Burgeon, Russian River, Guinness). Mike does an outstanding job on ensuring any customer will have a beer that meets their satisfaction. If you are looking for a white Russian, go next door. By the way the pretzels are better than being in Munich

    Churronuts
    Sylvia F.

    Had a delicious late lunch at this location. Sangria, mojito, shrimp & carne asada tacos, Ruben sandwich with onion rings and churronuts(sp?)with sauces for dessert. All were delicious fresh and served promptly. Food, drinks, location, service, ambiance and parking were worth the visit. I highly recommend this place.

    Great Pint..think I'll have another

    Really nice spot! Indoor/Outdoor seating. The bartender took my order and it's self service when they call your order. Guinness was great & pair that with crispy fish n chipper and it's a great day...definitely 4.5 out of 5stars

    Philly cheesesteak sandwich with the house fried chips!

    The food was good! Love the fresh made chips and my Philly cheesesteak sandwich was great! The ambience was so fun! Service was amazing!

    Buffalo Wings
    Miriam V.

    The burger and wings are always great here. The classic buffalo sauce has a nice heat to it, the wings are always cooked perfectly, and the burger never disappoints. The staff here is friendly, service is quick, and they are willing to make modifications to your order! It has a sports bar vibe, and there is always something on the TVs, locals hanging out, and good vibes all around.

    Super fun atmosphere with a huge selection of beer! Great bar food at great prices! The bar was packed on a Sat night when we went it and the servers / bartenders were on top of it we got our drinks right away. I also loved the high tech order delivery system slinging the ticket to the kitchen is next level. Highly recommend

    Mini corn dogs, chicken sandwich, wings
    Isabelle W.

    Great place to grab drinks/food! As bar food goes, I think this place is great and quality. Don't skip the mini corn dogs they are simply fire!!

    Regular and lemon pepper wings with sweet potato fries.

    Best wings, in my top 5, and I've been to Buffalo NY and eaten at both Anchor and Duff's - home of the wing. This place became my comfort food while in town for a few weeks. Wednesdays have $1 wings, and they don't use your name, they assign you one from who knows what. So far I've been Al Bundy, Ann Perkins, and Rebecca Howe. So definitely appeals to my 80's baby self. The ppl working inside are awesome. Also the blue cheese dressing? Dang son.

    Burger- better than in n out I swear!!!!!

And our server was fantastic. So why, you might ask, only 4 stars in my review. Two reasons: 1). Management has prohibited giving a splash of a beer for someone to sample. Bottom line is that I wanted to order a pint of beer, but I wanted a splash of a couple of beers to try to make my decision. They refused, saying that one must buy a 5oz taster if one wants to taste the beer. I find that policy offensive. In the end I bought a taster to taste the Chuuurch, and then bought an additional pint after. It just seems nickel and dimey, and would be asking to an ice cream place not allowing one to sample their ice creams before buying a cone. I hope management reconsiders this policy. 2. My wife got the Hot Mess Fries and was disappointed not only in the flavor, but also in the misleading advertising. On the menu it specifically said that there was bacon in the fries, but in fact what they put on the fries was either chunks of ham or "Canadian bacon" (which as we all know is a very different thing from "bacon"). If they were or of regular bacon, the kitchen should have told the server this so he could have asked her if she wanted ham as a substitute. And, of they always use ham instead of bacon, them the menu needs to be changed to reflect that.

There's parallel street parking throughout the area, so you might get lucky and find a spot nearby. I ended up parking on one of the side streets, which worked out perfectly. I came here on a Sunday afternoon, and it was definitely busy. We had to wait a little while for a table because several tables still needed to be cleaned before they could seat new guests. The staff was incredibly friendly, though, and we were seated as soon as they could. It did take about 15 minutes before a server was able to come over and take our order, but the restaurant was completely packed, so it's something to keep in mind if you're in a hurry. After spending the day at the beach, we were really just in the mood for drinks. I ordered the Blood Orange Margarita, which can be served with Tajín, sea salt, or no rim at all. It was really good and definitely on the stronger side, which I appreciated. My only complaint was that there was a bit too much ice, but the flavor itself was great. The atmosphere is what really makes this place stand out. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, large open windows that let in plenty of fresh air, and a fun, lively vibe that makes it a great place to relax after a beach day. Overall, I'd definitely come back for the ambiance and cocktails, just be prepared for a little wait if you visit during peak hours.

Most of the people in our group ordered beers, but I ordered a nonalcoholic prickly pear hibiscus ginger beer which was ok--pretty subtle, but it quenches the thirst all the same. I ordered the Farmer's burger (black bean) with added avocado and a side salad which comes with a lemon vinaigrette. I had to eat it with a knife and fork after removing the top bun. Very tasty. My daughter ordered crispy shrimp tacos which she really enjoyed. Most people ordered the backyard burger which looked pretty good--choice of fries or side salad. Freddy our server was friendly and helpful. Overall a good dining experience!
