Best Wings in California!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially the wings, which I found to be one of the best I've tried in California. I will absolutely come back again.

Service Great, Food Disappointing
My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. The service was incredibly quick and friendly, earning a perfect score. However, the food was quite disappointing. I ordered the Korean fried chicken sandwich, which was very, very salty and lacked subtlety. The kimchi slaw topping was also limp and bland. I didn't try the beer, which I hoped might be their saving grace. It's possible they over-salt everything to encourage more beer orders.

Excellent Beer and Amazing Wings!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! What more can you want? They offer great beer AND delicious, elevated pub food. I stopped by after my flight into San Diego and will definitely make this a stop every single time I'm in town. While I could rave about the beer, what truly blew me away were the wings. I tried the Marrakech Market Wings and the Holiday in Calabria Wings on separate visits, and both were packed with flavor and not too oily. The service was top-notch; we were never left waiting. The staff was kind and helpful, offering great recommendations when someone in our group was undecided. If you're in the area, I highly recommend giving them a shot – you won't be disappointed.

Great Beer and Atmosphere
My experience at this restaurant was excellent all around. I enjoyed the great beer and the super nice atmosphere. They also serve food here. The restaurant offers a huge indoor seating area and patio seating is also available.

Good Wings, Terrible Service
My experience at this restaurant was marked by a stark contrast between the food and the service. While I found the wings to be good, based on previous takeout orders, the service was absolutely disastrous. Upon entering, I followed the sign that said to take my seat and someone would be with me. I waited for nearly 15 minutes, observing what appeared to be a single waiter who was more engaged in conversation than in attending to customers. This lack of awareness led me to leave without being served. I suggest implementing a 'wait to be seated' system at the entrance to ensure customers know someone is present to assist them.

Undercooked Shrimp and Shared Fryer Concerns
My experience at this restaurant was mixed. While the atmosphere was pleasant (rated 4/4), and the service was efficient (rated 4/4 with no wait time), the food quality was a letdown. I ordered the shrimp tacos, which had the potential to be very good, but the shrimp were unfortunately undercooked. Additionally, I noted that many items marked as gluten-free use a shared fryer, which is a significant concern for those with severe gluten sensitivities. The overall food score was 3/5.

Delicious Burgers and Easy Parking!
My wife and I visited and ordered two burgers. They were absolutely delicious. What made the experience even better was finding parking on a Friday evening 🙌.

Worst Service Ever, Ruined My Night
My experience at this restaurant was incredibly disappointing due to the worst service I've ever had in my life. I was standing at the bar and was skipped 8 times. I waited for 20 minutes while a table was served in less than 90 seconds, which was absolutely ridiculous. This experience absolutely killed my night.

Great IPAs and Innovative Food
If you're looking for IPAs, this is a great spot. The food menu is innovative and takes advantage of local ingredients. My experience was excellent, with a perfect atmosphere and top-notch service.
