I asked the bartender for a cocktail with tequila and he made a delicious drink for me. We ordered food from the chef who is stationed at the side of the bar. Wow!!! The chicken wings were truly divine. So so addicting and delicious. They were spicy but I couldn't stop eating them. We also ordered the pozole, which was good, but the wings were definitely the star of the show. The chef was very sweet. I would come back to this bar just for the wings.

Pal Joeys is the sickest dive bar still left in San Diego. Red, Kylie and Jude are absolutely…read moreamazing. When Red works, the vibe is completely different- such a fun time and it's always going up. Red literally has a cult following and if you get the opportunity to experience her exceptional service one time, you'll understand why. Kylie and Jude are phenomenal as well - attentive and their customer service is always rendered with a smile! It's a total locals bar where everyone knows each other. Doesn't matter if it's your first time - if you're cool, you find yourself in one of the most accepting and kind environments regardless of where you come from. Karaoke with Devyn on Thursdays and Sunday's is such a vibe - you won't regret it; she makes everyone feel included and does such a great job with karaoke. The owners are also very kind - Mike is a true gentleman and his annual car show is a MUST VISIT! Peter's hilarious if you ever catch him at the bar!! And even their security, Mikey, is a pretty funny and kind dude, if you can get him to talk to ya haha! I took away a star for Noah. Drinks are trash, service is slow and the worst part is his fragile male ego makes him a horror to be around. His attitude is horrendous and he likes to call customers names if he's offended that day. It's funny because when he first started working there, it took EVERYONE six months before they would take a drink from him - people would literally line up and wait 20-30 min for Red because that's how bad his service and drinks were. While his drinks have gone from a 1/10 to a 1.75/10 in the almost two years he's been there, his social skills have and continue to rapidly decline. He has a handful of regulars and those are the ONLY people he attends- he'll ignore everyone else to serve them/ talk to them. I have tried to give this dude the benefit of the doubt but I have a hard time accepting his disrespect, especially when I've personally diffused and stopped people from trying to fight him. Moral of the story: pal joeys is a cool spot if you order a drink from literally anybody but Noah. I have absolutely no clue how he is still employed there other than staff shortage. Someone who feels too good to serve others should not be a bartender, nor be around people at all honestly. He need a major attitude adjustment - that man is bad for business. He makes it easy and fun to say no to him and literally evokes emotions in me to NOT give him money. If you visit pals, avoid Noah and you're guaranteed to have a great time!

Jason quickly greeted us upon arrival, making us feel comfortable -- like we were regulars -- from the start. Fabulous Happy Hour (Thursdays - Sundays, 3-6 PM). We enjoyed their $7 cocktails (strong-&-tasty; impressed by the big, clear ice cubes!) and Seasonal Flatbread, $13 ( chockfull of fresh-&-colorful ingredients atop a thin cracker crust, served with a fresh-&-flavorful homemade sauce). In addition, the Potato Cake,$13, was deliciously savory. Off the regular menu, their Shrimp Corncake, $17, was rich and had a wonderful marriage of flavors, served with a refreshing side salad. We'll most certainly return when in the area -- just wish it was closer.

Very casual place and they have karaoke on certain nights. You basically seat yourself and make yourself comfortable. The kitchen is closed on Mondays and open at 3pm on other days. Cash, Venmo and Zelle only. It's operated by one chef called Beto's Kitchen at JT's. We've been here many times. Wings take awhile so we call to place an order and come pick up. We had Prime Rib Friday's for $24 that comes with roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes. Perfect seasoning but the piece of meat was very chewy. Loved that the beer battered onion rings did not fall apart and maintained crispiness. Also got chicken nachos which were loaded and had fresh fried tortilla chips. Parking is tight, either in front of 7-11 or in the back. They have an outdoor patio with a pool table and games as well as tvs.

Across the street has a mini park for walking, workouts or pups. PARKING we came by at 1pm on Thursday so we got the free 1 hour parking out front. Otherwise, I bet this place fills up. They did have paid parking on the street as well. FOOD I saw the loco moco was popular so my husband got that. He said it was good but isn't as mind blowing as the one at Wonderland in OB. I got the fish tacos as the employee suggested it. They were m absolutely delicious! Perfect crunch with the added veggies and the chipotle sauce on top was I didn't add the sauce in the cup because it was a bit too spicy DRINK My husband got a Pepsi zero and I had a matcha with blueberry. My matcha was delicious. SERVICE I can tell our meals were freshly made bc it took 10 min to get our food. Pretty quick considering my fish tacos were fried. In terms of cleanliness, the team members quickly bussed tables after customers finished and everywhere looked super clean. This is such a vibey place where you could work on your laptop, share a meal with a few friends or enjoy a drink at the outside patio with the beautiful sunshine.

I keep it simple with pepperoni and Cesar salads but the pork belly bites are also gas. Until they start seasoning the actual burger patty, I'd say burgers aren't worth it here (they are big tho). The bartenders and servers are also very chill and friendly people. It can get pretty busy in here during baseball or football games so I highly recommend coming during lunch if you can.
