Saloon Sunday at U 31 was an absolute vibe! From the moment I walked in, the good vibes were flowing--everyone was upbeat, welcoming, and ready to have fun. The music was great, the drinks were on point, and the country dancing made the night even better. Em does a fantastic job teaching the dance lessons--she's clear, patient, and makes it fun for dancers of all levels. One thing I've noticed, though, is that it seems like she only teaches a few dances now. I feel like she used to instruct more in the past, and it would be awesome to see her bring back a wider variety. Her instruction really adds to the night, and a few more dances would make Saloon Sunday even stronger. Honestly, Saloon Sunday should definitely happen more often--maybe even every Sunday. It's the perfect mix of great music, good drinks, friendly vibes, and fun dancing. Already looking forward to the next one! read more

Wow... where do I even start?! Sunday night at U31 Country Saloon was absolutely incredible. U31 has quickly become one of my favorite places to go line dancing, and every time I'm there it just gets better. I seriously wish they had country nights more than twice a month because I'd be there every time. The vibe is always so welcoming -- from the staff to the crowd, everyone is friendly and makes it such a fun, comfortable place to dance. Huge shoutout to Lexie for the amazing decorations -- she did such a beautiful job and really set the tone for the night. I also have to give some love to Country Dancing Em. Her lessons are always a blast, easy to follow, and full of good energy. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and it makes the whole experience even better. Already counting down the days until the next event -- I'll definitely be back on the dance floor! read more

I am shocked by the reviews for this place and not in a good way. I've been here a handful of times, and I have to say if you come here on the weekends this place is full of Ratchet people. No dress code. Can't even begin to tell you how people come here. During the week it's pretty dead. One time there were only two people in here lol. Sometimes the music is good, other times its trash. They need a better DJ to be honest. The bartenders are genuinely nice. I think this spot might be the only place in San Diego in my 6 years here that gives me LA vibes, not staying classy for sure ha-ha. The kind of individuals that come in here no thank you, Next! read more

Saloon Sundays is the best for country line dancing. If you like to get down, then get down here! Plenty of floor space and the music never stops. They have a few lessons each time as well. Wish it was every Sunday. Twice a month just isn't enough. read more

I attended the free Sunset Standup comedy show for the first time on Friday, which happens every Friday at 7:30 PM. The event drew a full crowd, featuring six or seven comedians, and it was an incredibly fun and entertaining experience. The setup includes heaters, table seating, and benches, but I recommend arriving a bit early since some people ended up standing due to the large turnout. The show runs for about an hour to an hour and a half. Beforehand, you can grab a drink at the bar, which offers an excellent selection of craft beers, and enjoy some of the games inside. read more

They weren't open at 11 on Sunday, despite their listing. A group was waiting outside when we arrived. They had a reservation , but the door was locked and there was no response. They lost 5 customers. I was interested in Mama's Fried Chicken, but doubt I'll try again. I don't understand not posting hours on the door--even if you have to put up a temporary sign. read more

I love saloon Sundays with the line dancing! The drinks are reasonably priced, easy to order, and the vibes are super welcoming! It's great having a local line dancing instructor as great as Emily! I wish they had saloon Sundays every Sunday! read more

Came to U31 for the chicken and waffles and they were seriously delicious. Crispy, flavorful, and exactly what I was craving. The bartender Maddy made the morning even better with her amazing energy and killer strawberry margaritas. Great food, great drinks, great service! read more

The rating depends on who you get... 5 starts if you get the short haired hottie. Zero, if you get the blonde/hair a little past the shoulder ma'am. She tried to over charge us. You do NOT charge ppl for top self-UNLESS THEY ASK! She tried to say it was on us for not asking for well. Yea, that's not how that works. I also just found out that the wonderful woman that I'm speaking about is filling in and isn't actually the normal bartender here. Looks like maybe she should be because she's the only honest one around here. read more

Patrick was very professional and very helpful, good drinks and good music! I highly recommend U31!

This is a pandemic review please make a note. Their back patio is absolutely lovely, warm and snuggly on a chilly night. I like what they did to insure social distancing, there is also hand sanitizer and employees who are masked up. Even Sunset Trivia is obeying the County rules for health safety. Drinks are not astronomical, they have a TON of TV's with sports ball on and they have really decent bar food. I shared my husband's veggie burger and his beer batter fries which were absolutely delicious. Lot's of fun and nice people here just coming to the bar to chill out and forget about the pandemic for a while. Bartender was super professional and kind, asked me if I was driving when I ordered my second drink. I am a former bartender from many years ago, I remember being concerned about over serving my customers as well. I really appreciate someone cares enough to ask that question. I recommend this place for those of you locals who are also Trivia players, great atmosphere and great staff. I may have to walk up to watch some college football games here, it's really hard getting any of the other bars to put on the Aztecs which is a local San Diego College team or any other college sports for that matter. Now NCAA Men's Basketball is starting up! They have a 4.00 burger special on Saturday's too so you've been warned! :D read more

Our mistake coming here during fight night we just wanted food and drinks but 20 dollars a head was a pass. But from other times being here food is bar food drinks are awesome music and staff always a good time. read more

Watched a Padre game here because wanted to try the food. It's a pretty gross place (women's bathroom looked like it hadn't been cleaned for a week) but the place has a lots of TV's. The problem was, they had the sound so loud you couldn't even talk to your own group at the table or at the bar to order drinks either. I won't ever go back! read more

U-31 never disappoints when you're looking for a good place to go dancing for girls night. I don't usually go out unless family and friends are in town but when I do, I take them out for good old school music at U-31. I recently took my girls (5 of us) out to U-31 on 2/18/22 for a birthday party and the ladies had a blast! There wasn't a cover when we arrived around 10:30pm. The bartender was attentive even when it got super busy. The music was good, could've been a little better but overall he played 80s, 90s and 2000s old school hip hop, r&b, and pop. It was nice to feel normal going dancing with friends without having to wear a mask. Thanks for a great time! read more

1st and last time here! Don't waist your time. Corrine B. behind the bar has the worst attitude (which is putting it mildly). She only paid attention to the 3 guys at the end of the bar and had no interest in helping anyone else. Whom ever owns this place, good luck! read more

Came in the early evening with a friend for some drinks and chicken from Mom's Chicken and Waffles located in U31. The chicken was amazing with big portions and the service was friendly and on point. The bartender Cassidy was really friendly and was doing her thing - somehow made Hennessy mixed with Tequila taste good. Great food great drinks great experience. read more

Was walking by and bartender Shane called us in and he was amazing. We felt so welcome and stayed so long we gone t to meet security angel and jimmy ! Everyone is so nice and accommodating I will definitely be back read more

Came with a friend and had wings and drinks, flavor for the honey Sriracha sauce was really good!!!! Drinks are a good price too

Enjoyed myself here at this bar while I was in San Diego! The whole trip was based on a friends birthday so we did things she wanted to do! This particular nightclub was featuring a reggae artist she follows so we went to see him live and what a show! The band was awesome! I have a *thing* for musicians (wink wink haha!) Great show, decent drinks, can't remember what I ordered, something like a cactus habanero strawberry something with tequila! Didn't even snap a pic! Sorry read more

A fun and friendly dive bar with good food and drinks! Great customer service and fun Friday hip hop and old school night vibe!

We were here for a fundraiser which is great for the community!!! Mark the bartender was AMAZING!!!! It was super busy and he handled business. Had a great time for a great cause: security was amazing too. Definitely gonna be back, good environment and great service. read more

This place has the potential to be so good. Service is good. Nice space. The DJ is hit or miss depending on the night. Wish the music was consistently good but it's a toss up good/bad when you go. However, the biggest downside to me is the speakers sound like they are blown out. They need to be replaced ASAP. read more

Stopped by for Burger Week and was not disappointed. Walking inside the stage for musicians is directly to the left, the bar is along the right wall and the pool tables are in the far back. They have a few u-shaped seating booths along the far left wall. Flat screen televisions are abundant. We ordered at the bar, went to a booth to wait, then discovered if you stand by the open window and lean out a bit, the sunset is very beautiful. Excellent timing! My burger (Smokey Mountain Blue) was juicy and cooked medium, just the way I like. It came with barbecue sauce, blue cheese, lettuce, bacon and onions. The fries a bit dry, dipping them in ranch dressing helped. The draft pale ale beer paired nicely with the burger. Overall a nice experience, I'd come here again for the burger. read more

I was new to San Diego last week and was looking for a great time out and came across this place. The drinks are okay and security's up front are actually nice but the environment was terrible. Dj is the worst. Saturday night and you're playing Taylor swift and Katy perry at 11pm? I get if you have to close by 2 and your trying to make the mood go down for people to leave but at 11?! Anyways, music was bad and I think that's about it. If the Dj can't seem to find the difference of clubbing and Prom night, I takes a big toll on the rating even tho staff, drinks, and location are great. read more

We stumbled across this place during a night out for a friend's bachelorette party. The staff was really friendly and made our experience a fun one! The DJ generously played song requests we had for the bride as well as every hit you would want to hear while dancing on a night out! read more

Venue was great for the event I attended.... my main complaint is the next morning as I looked at my receipts, I noticed I was charged for ice. A drink on the rocks... $2 ... my other drink was not and it had ice. Really confusing to me. A bag of ice costs $2. I posted on social media to see if This was a thing... and it certainly is not! Please let me know if you charge for ice. Or include it in the price read more

Go see the bartenders Tadas and Kassandra they are the best! Drinks are great along with the service and personality's!

James is an absolute gem! He has such a positive attitude. He's happy to help and very attentive.

This review for the daytime sports bar at this place and not the nightclub!!! I have been here the two times the last two weeks for the Charger games and am pleasantly surprised! I have always thought of this place as a nightclub and never ventured here during the day... Let alone for sports. This place is a hidden gem for a sports bar. Shhhhhh During the day it is an awesome sports bar with over 20 TVs and one huge projector screen. Yessss, there is sound! They have tons of tables and quite a bit of booths. There is a pool table and a bathroom with a few stalls for both genders. There are drink specials during game day and happy hour is the best. Their happy hour 12-6pm burger deals on Saturdays are the best!!! They are $4 for any burger! If you want fries make sure to say you want to add fries (default beer-battered) for $2 more ( does not say on menu) rather than a basket for 5 dollars on the menu (unless you want tons of fries)! Got the jalepeno burger and it did not disappoint. Bun was perfect and toppings were divine. Meat was good, though I've had better. The fries were probably one of the best fries I've had. Food took a while though and it wasn't busy ...about 20 minutes. No one greeted me until I went to the bar and asked for water. You order at the bar. Can't complain though since the burger was really just $3.75 on the bill. Guess $4 just looks better on the menu ?? read more

Deserves a 0 star honestly. Went there to watch the Dodgers NLCS game 6, do or die game. Anyway was approached by I think was Alexa (girl with curly hair) in a very rushed and unprofessional way and was basically told if I was gonna order if not I needed to leave. I had just got there too. Was just watching the ending of the Dodgers inning and was gonna order at the TV commercial break. I mean how do you expect me to stay after that kind of treatment? I then just walked out. Sad thing is I was the 1st to arrive of a party of 12 that eventually all got together that night. I will never spend my hard earned money at any place where im not respected. It's the bare minimum you could do when treating customers. To tell them drink or leave shows me you have no customer service skills. Terrible hire. Will not be returning and spending my money somewhere else in San Diego. read more

False advertising: not a NY Giants bar I recently moved to the area and saw U31 had a Facebook group for Giants fans and is listed on sites as a Giants bar. Went down for the game on Sunday, and noticed a huge Chargers flag out front. I asked the doorman if this was a Giants bar and he said yes but right now they are showing the Chargers on the big screen (and audio) and of course they were. They had the Giants game on some of the smaller TVs along with other NFL games. There were maybe 4 Giants fans including myself there and in talking to to of them they were first timers like myself. So I guess the Giants fans moved elsewhere? Who knows. If I wanted the Chargers game it's on local TV. So dumb to feature that one. The beer selection was iffy (one IPA?) and the wings were breaded like fried chicken and not what I was hoping for. Prices weren't that great either. Just brand yourselves a Chargers bar and don't pretend you're something you're not. read more

This is a fun bar to come to for trivia night on Wednesdays! They have a special deal on Wednesdays-- 31 cent wings! We ordered a couple dozen of the buffalo style wings-- the flavor of the sauce was good on the wings, but they could have been a bit crispier, and there could have been a bit more in the way of celery and carrots. I thought it had a comfortably mild kick, but my friend who shared the basket of wings was sweating profusely! For folks who actually want to eat something healthy at a cocktail lounge, they have a pretty good kale and avocado salad. Generous portion for the price and quality-- I really enjoyed this, and it was a nice balance to the heaviness of the wings. Their mule is AWESOME. Try it. They put something in there that makes it taste like apricots, and it is so, so tasty! Tip: Check in on Yelp to waive the cover charge! read more

James is awesome!!! He was busy keeping everyone very happy and their drinks well filled. I ordered the Saturday 12-6pm Happy Hour and Special $4.00 cheeseburger and $2.00 fries and $2.00 Coca-Cola. As I waited for my burger to arrive I noticed a DJ booth and a stage. When my cheeseburger arrived it was hot and pretty big plus the basket was loaded with their beer battered fries. The burger was very tasty and juicy and the fries was cooked to perfection. This place gets busy at nights :-) They have Daily Happy Hour specials. *Leave your little ones at home because this is a 21+ establishment. They have a few screens to keep you occupied along with a billiard table for your hustle :-) The bar is the best place to seat plus they have some booths and tables. **There is no outdoor seating unless you are a troublemaker and get kicked out of this fine establishment. Good place to mingle with your friendly neighbors. read more

Came in for the saturday happy hour burger deal they have. 50% off all burgers so its like $3-4 each and they have 7 I think. I got the veggie, the turkey and the brunch burgers. Being my matter with lactose I went sans cheese on all 3. Being CA I added avocado to all 3. Overall the burgers were darn good. Nothing mind blowing but for the price these were a bargain and a good fill indeed. The turkey was my personal favorite. The brunch even without a beef patty added was darn good and likey way better had I added cheese and beef....how could it not? The veggie burger was even far more flavorful then I would a thought it would be. All 3 had bacon and LTO as well mind you. Simple white burger buns with house sauces in the side. Service is fast and the place is pretty quiet around 12-1 but word is it picks up quick later on. So come in Saturday's afternoons, beat the crowd and slam some cheap burgers that hold up with flavor and variety. For $2 you can add fries to any burger as well. Tell the bar staff hello as they are awesome! read more
