The last time I visited this suite in the Rolando neighborhood, Filipino cuisine was being served…read more Apparently, a relative of the owner was given an opportunity to run that food service, but it was unable to succeed. The lower line of the new marquee sign noted that 'BBQ & Southern Style Food' was also offered at Bayside Fish & Chips. Those items made up the right menu screen while the left screen displayed the traditional fried seafood fare. I picked the Fish Sandwich which was the first of five listings. A fried whitefish fillet (my choice) or catfish nuggets was available as the protein served on a bun with tartar sauce. The batter used on the fish was a light cornmeal. I appreciated that it was not heavily coated on the fillet. I also ordered a serving of the Creole Gumbo. The roux was not as dark as have I seen in other versions of this classic Southern recipe. A medley of crab pieces, clams, chicken, and andouille sausage was mixed together while a dish of white rice was provided on the side to add into the broth. There were only four tables for on-site dining so most of the business at Bayside Fish & Chips was for takeout orders. The BBQ meats were not available at the time of my afternoon visit. The brisket and pork ribs would be worth trying on another occasion when I am in this neighborhood. The food quality and prices were worth a four star rating.

Yes, it's all about the fish and chips here at Bayside, but I decided on the Smoked Beef Sandwich…read morefor $9 and some change. It's a no frills sandwich, with just the chopped smoked beef on a bun with a side of BBQ side. A few pickles here would have been nice to break into the beefy flavor, which was good, but the meat was heavy on the salt, especially towards the end of a bite and chew. It also would have been nice if it were a little juicier. The bun was good and effective. I would have preferred if they served the bun warm, however. It would have complimented the warm beef better and the sandwich as a whole. The BBQ sauce was good and just tad elevated the flavor of the sandwich. It was a decent beef sandwich overall, I can't help thinking of those sour pickles, though. Service was friendly enough but not much for conversation, and the place is very simple inside with a few tables. Like I said, no frills, not that there is anything wrong with that.

I went on an adventure trying to find a new lunch spot.  I found this place on Yelp as Janna's…read moreBurgers, Fish, and Fries and the map took me to the Aztec Food Hub.  Using the street address I was taken to Grossmont Center.  The signage indicates this place is called BFF Burgers, Fish and Fries. I was feeling lucky today.  So I ordered my fried fish with onion rings and paid $1 upcharge.  The problem with onion rings is they range from not good to great.  With fries they are usually fine. White fish was fried in a tempura batter infused with herbs.  White fish had a mild flavor and was nice and moist.  Batter was crunchy. Onion rings were mostly crunchy except the batter was too thick so some parts of the batter were not transformed by the frying process into crunchy goodness.   I didn't like the flavor of the herbs in the batter which distracted from the fried onion flavor. Service from the guy in charge was friendly and efficient.  My combo was $12.99 which is a great deal.  I'd order the fish again but not the onion rings.  Doing further research I found they are also listed on Yelp as BFF Burgers, Fish and Fries.  So that's the story on my lunch adventure.

We will be back before next new years, but wanted to highlight the New Year's Irish toast, because in looking for places to hang out and go to to celebrate before the actual midnight time is hard to find.

It's been a week since going to the La Mesa Brigantine with my pal, Nancy. I'm still thinking…read moreabout how delicious our food was and how nicely Kylie (I hope I got her name right) treated us. Nancy and I went to the Del Mar Brigantine about a month ago and it was a disappointment as noted in my review of that location (happily and thankfully, they made up for it via our visit to the La Mesa location last Friday) in early August. Last Friday's visit was terrific. We were welcomed immediately and seated where we asked. Kylie greeted us right away and brought us some great bread. For our entrees, Nancy ordered Salmon and I ordered the Crab Stuffed Shrimp. Everything was delicious, absolutely delicious. I had been craving the Crab Stuffed Shrimp when my husband and I went to the IB location with our friends, Bill and Toni, a couple months ago but even though that shrimp is still on their menu today, they didn't, and still don't, have it. Disappointing. When Nancy and I went Brigantine Del Mar we apparently were there at the wrong time of day so I was out of luck that day too. We made a point of getting to the La Mesa location at the right time of day last Friday so I was able to get the shrimp. Obviously the third time's the charm. Thank you, La Mesa Brigantine, for a lovely meal and a lovely time, I appreciate it so much!

We were seated outside, 5mins later I was trying to ask for a table change from 1 corner to the other due to the sun. I went to get back in line at the host stand, but the family before me asked for the corner table& I feel like because we were there first, my issue should've been addressed 1st, esp when the mother of the family was making faces and making a big deal. I mentioned to the host another table left in the same area, she said she'll clear it, problem solved. Just off to a horrible 1st impression on a little issue, and that was just at the face of the initial interaction. *The host did come over and apologize about whatever feelings she thought I had still though* I had the chilaquiles, it was good, it just wasn't AMAZING. I swear I read on the menu it said fresh tortilla strips.. unless I read that on another menu. Everything else seemed like basic breakfast/lunch. It was something new to try& we tried it.
