It was a joy seeing Haley! She made our experience so memorable. Definitely will be coming back.

This is a MUST stop. My family and I always stay in Oceanside once a year and are always looking for a great place to go with friendly service and great food and we finally found THE place. Daisey was our bartender and made us feel right at home, she first suggested the coconut tequila margaritas and OMG!! Trust me just have her make you one Then on to the food. We started with the Hummus dip and veggies. Then My husband got the Billy Philly and I got the 3 tacos carne asada. All were soo delicious and filling. Great portion sizes fresh ingredients. The ambiance was just as you'd think from the name, all American right up our alley, with a mix of surf and sand. If you are ever in the area and looking for a great new spot, don't pass this place up and be sure to ask for Daisy! read more

This used to be a great place for Philly Cheesesteak, I haven't orders in maybe a few months and tonight I'm shocked to say this has gone down hill. First the bad!!! I found a piece of twisted metal in my rings and fries..!!!! Then the size of the sandwich has shrunk in half!! It's the size of a bun literally like 6 inch sub. And it costs now $26 The fries and onion rings hardly any in the box, they used to have a large box of fries for a decent price now it's for $15.75!! This is a huge disappointment!! Unacceptable that I paid $58 for two sandwiches with a side of one order of fries and onion rings with a piece of metal to boot. read more

Hiya B.U.M.S., If you're looking for a great spot to grab a bite with the entire family, American Heroes & Brew is a good go to. Located in a lovely village area surrounded by great shopping and plenty of kid-friendly spaces to run around and play, it makes for the perfect afternoon out. Plus, it is an awesome, welcoming place to pull up a chair and watch a sports game. Our Order: Mozzarella Sticks: Served hot with a side of marinara for dipping. Philly Billy & "Frings": A fantastic, hearty option that is definitely a great shareable size. Pairing it with "frings" (a mix of fries and onion rings) gives you the best of both worlds. Chef Mariano's Chili: We gave Chef Mariano's Chili a shot. It came out a bit on the soupier side rather than the thick style we typically prefer, but it was still packed with flavor. Arnold Palmer: Poured over heavy ice and mixed to absolute perfection--super refreshing. Corona Non-Alcoholic: A fantastic, crisp option for keeping things light and alcohol-free. Tips: Hero Discount: They offer a 10% discount to heroes every month. During our visit, the featured hero group was the military--such a wonderful way to give back to those who serve. Family Prep: Because the portion sizes (liare generous, consider ordering a few items to split family-style so everyone gets to sample a bit of everything. Where is your favorite place to take the family for game day eats? Have you tried the frings here yet? Let us know in the comments below. read more

The place has a cool vibe to it. It's set in a shopping center with various stores and restaurants, so there is plenty of parking. But it's limited and there's more going on than there is parking it felt like. The staff here were really nice and friendly. They have a good selection of alcohol, sandwiches, burgers, tacos, and other foods. I got the Hoboken sandwich, which is an Italian sub. It was really good. But also on a very high cost side. Sandwiches there are $20+ and they don't include fries. For two sandwiches, fries, and a Banquet beer, it came to $63, without a tip, which is insane to me for what it was. read more

Mediocre food, worse service. Ordered a beer and burgers w my 6 year old- took 20 minutes for beer to arrive, another 20 for food, basically zero acknowledgment by server. Don't live here. Would never come back. read more

Came here to meet w friend that was moving out of state. He is a philly native and heard great reviews about the Philly cheese steak and saw that they use ambrosia rolls. He was very excited about this and i was too, since we used to go to Philly a lot when we used to live in east coast. The menu description of the Philly cheesesteak sounded promising. The employee that helped us also said this was the most popular sandwich. It was a big sandwich but i could already tell right away when getting it, that it was not a philly cheesesteak. The cheese was already coagulated and the meat was thick and tough. The bread was ok. I looked at our friend and the first bite was unfortunately disappointment. the sandwich was just ok. Got chicken tenders (small) for the kid and it was a huge portion, i ended up liking that better. He liked the beer. Not sure what he got though. The staff here are very nice. They are family friendly and offer high chairs. the place has a lot of TVs so if you want to watch a game, it will probably be showing there. There are changing tables in the bathroom if u need to change the baby. If we ever come back, i would get something else other than the Philly cheesesteak. There is a free parking lot but weekends would be busy. read more

This place feels and looks like a sports bar/restaurant and if you want to drink beer and watch sports, you came to the right place. They offer plenty of local beers and boozy drinks. But it is absolutely family friendly, too. The food options on the menu are also plentiful. The pretzel bites appetizer was nice enough. The burgers are very, very good. I normally like to try different things at restaurants but I don't know if I would order anything here other than one of their very big and very juicy, flavorful burgers. They are excellent. With the burger, you get a choice of one of their many side options. The fries and rings were solid (and you should order that side instead of just the fries or just the rings) but why isn't anyone getting the huge bowl of bacon mac and cheese? It is absolutely delicious. I appreciate that you can select from one of their many sides. Service was excellent. Our server was great but we were also checked in on by at least two other workers. I am not sure they classify themselves as a sports bar and I do not know that it really matters. Come for sports, come for burgers, come for nice service, come for a family night out. It is a casual, friendly place with a lot of positives. read more

Alán was on top of his service. He immediately came to help us from the beginning. He got us seated, got us waters, and asked us for our drinks and food. The food came out quickly. I got the Hoboken and oh my goodness, was it delicious. It was a great day to be here because it was football Sunday! The crowd was the vibe and the Padres won so that was a plus. Will be back again, especially to see Alán! read more

Fun place, lots of TVs and the ambience was lively. My IPA was tasty but warm. That's a big red flag for me. We were all hungry and although the food was moderate, we gladly ate it all. The cowboy burger had good toppings, but the meat itself was a bit bland. I think our server must've been on a break because we waited a while for refills of water and to order the food. The garlic Parmesan fries were the star of the night. read more

I think this is the first time I started my review, before even getting my food. That's how slow the service is, they were crazy packed (65% capacity maybe) but looks like they only had 3 people working 1) For all waiters/waitresses reading this. A PEPSI is NOT the same as a COKE, a Hot Dog is not that same as a Corn Dog.... AND Sweet n Low is NOT the same as Splenda. If I would have known they only have Splenda, I woulda ordered a Coke. But she said "yeah, we have sweet in low" Now we wait for our food and I'll continue the review. Mozzarella sticks were okay. Oil might be old cause they looked darker than normal but the batter was good and cheese sorta melted. 3.5 stars Ordered carne asada fries based of the waitress recommendation. It was okay. Fries were good, cheese was good and good amount, sour cream and guac was good. Carne asada was mid and amount was not that much. Being generous 4 stars Tea was good 4 stars. Philly was decent (wife got it, it's her review). 3,5 stars Below is reviews from my son who was STARVING and just finished a 10 day wrestling camp. Mac & cheese 2 stars. Cheese is viscous and strong Armenian cheese flavor Burger was 3 stars. Needs to be bigger and more juicy Mozzarella sticks 2 stars We not from here so won't come back for sure. Service wasn't great. She was nice but I think over whelmed with customers The Cheese Cake however, saved the day. 5 stars as in I would get it again and again. Once it died down, waitress did come by more often. Over all 3.5 stars but I don't feel right giving this place a 4 so I have to go with 3 And then we get the check and there is a 3% Green Fee (not on the menu but on the check) So that dropped the waitress tip from $30 to $15. But they earned that $5 Green Fee read more

Went here on a Friday night date and was super surprised that only a few people were there. However I absolutely loved it! Like how many places can you and get a hefty sandwich AND a glass of wine?! They have a good sized menu, which I look forward to trying all their sandwiches. I also noticed they do endless mimosas (2 hour limit) along with brunch. They have live music on the weekends and nights. I love the vibe of this place with supporting First Responders and Military aka "American Heroes". Great drinks Great food Great bartenders Great music Great atmosphere read more

Seated immediately and our server was super cheerful and upbeat despite being pretty much the only one in the front of house during the lunch rush. Drink orders arrived fast and our order was taken soon after getting our drinks. I ordered the Tombstone which is their Western cheeseburger, Two 1/4 lb. patties, bacon, grilled onion, cheddar cheese, AHB BBQ Sauce, topped with onion rings on a brioche bun with a side of onion rings. The portions were huge and the burger was cooked perfectly. The onion rings were pretty standard for what you'd expect but were tasty and a big portion. Beer selection was great and we enjoyed our lunch here. Highly recommended! read more

Well, where do I start?!? This place I've been here a few times and today was par for the course. I was greeted very nicely by the staff before I was sitting down. I feel like they always know when I am ready to order, but without lurking over you. I am a sports guy, so that's a plus. But tonight, Ashley was on point! I didn't have a lot of time and she was able to convince the kitchen to rush mine a bit. Food is always fire here! Lots of TVs and pretty helpful with getting your specific game. 5/5 as always! Love and highly recommend this place. read more

Get the meatball sandwich. Omg and the meatball parm fries. This place is so chill and has the best atmosphere for watching games or playing cards (all afternoon). A pretty good bargain on breakfast as well. read more

My second time here. Fantastic place to watch the game because of the food&drink deals, tons of TVs, and they play the sound of the game too. Our service was 10/10 (didn't catch the bartenders names but a woman with dirty blonde hair and one with curly black hair! Did a great job with our large obnoxious crew) The only reason I give it 4 instead of 5 stars is that none of the sandwiches or burgers come with fries/a side so I ended up paying $23 without tax/tip for a pretty mediocre burger and fries. Also last time I was here, the menu was double the size with a lot of different options. read more

It's fine but I'm not at all sure why it gets such great reviews. It's not big at all. There are TVs but they aren't too concerned with the games. Food is fine but it's bar food.

We went on a Saturday evening. Parking took a couple of drives around since there are so many other restaurants. The place itself was a bit busy but we found a table right away. There were plenty of tvs showing football and the mls game between Vancouver and San Diego. Lots of talking and cheering. Our waitress came right over. I ordered a hard cider drink, wings and mozzarella sticks. My kids ordered soda and my husband ordered some other drink that I can't remember. The wings were good, they had a spicy/sweet taste and the mozzarella sticks were your standard sticks. For food we ordered the tombstone with a side of onion rings, my son ordered the Pasadena, my husband got the San Diego and my daughter ordered a kids cheeseburger. Everything was delicious. The burgers had good flavor. Overall we enjoyed our meal. read more

Billy had helpful insight to other restaurants and bars for us and he wasn't lying! Will definitely go back to watch a game and drink/eat. read more

American Heroes & Brew - Coronado IPA was so cold - Sandwiches Near Me - Carlsbad, California

I was so blown away the first time I came here. Wow, things have changed. They have done away with half the menu. Food was still good but the variety is far less. Bartender said they're trying to cut costs. Fries were a bit overcooked. Service was mediocre. read more

If I was just rating the service, it would be 5 stars no question! But since there's food involved, I want to be honest. I was soooo excited about the Philly connection, as I'm very familiar with cheesesteaks having lived near Philly in a past life. Well, I was sorely disappointed. We were told that the bread is flown in daily from Philly. Well, I don't know where it's coming from because it's definitely not the same bread as what they normally use there. The sandwich and meat were dry and flavorless. Totally underwhelming unfortunately. So then we saw that they made key lime pie there too! Again, I was SUPER excited because key lime pie is my favorite dessert of all time. And again...disappointment. I took one glance and saw that it was light green in color and knew I was gonna be mad. Yall, Key lime pie is yellow. You should NEVER add food coloring. That's just gross and inaccurate. The texture and flavor were also off. Texturally it was way too thick and dense, which would have been fine if it actually tasted like key lime. But it was severely lacking in that tart key lime flavor that it's known for. I'd definitely go back because of the service and vibe. But I'll maybe try a burger and the cheesecake instead. read more

Entire experience ruined by the receipt that lists a 'CA Green Fee (3.75%)'. The title of this assessed fee is very misleading and deceptive - it is not a mandated fee collected and remitted to the State of CA but instead is an arbitrary charge by the restaurant itself to offset costs. Either reprice your menu items, albeit already on the high side or remove the fee. read more

Buyer beware, they charge you a CALIFORNIA GREEN FEE (3.75%). Accoording to Google, this fee does not exist. It is just made up for them to get more money on top of already not cheap items on the menu. That's kinda fucked up. Food was so so, atmosphere was amazing, plenty of tv's for watching sports, outdoor patio, friendly waiters and great service. I would go there again for drinks only and dispute the bullshit fee. read more

Arrived and seated ourselves in a mostly empty restaurant midday. We were greeted quickly and asked for our drink choices. The restaurant was clean and they were playing good music. We ordered loaded fries with meatballs, a beef dip sandwich with onions and mushrooms, and a Philly Billy (Philly Cheesesteak). I also ordered a root beer. The loaded fries came pretty quickly. We dug in and these ended up being the star of the show. The meatball with mozzarella on the fries was really great and the marinara was really good! I would go back just for this. I waited quite a while for the root beer I ordered. I think they were short handed as our server was outside at least three times pacing up and down on her cellphone. She got several things wrong with our order so perhaps her attention was elsewhere. I overheard her asking the person she was conversing with to come in early. I finally asked the other server for the root beer and she was really nice about getting it. The other server was more attentive than our actual server. Our sandwiches were delivered. I took a bite of the cheesesteak and got spicy peppers that I had asked for on the side. I am not a fan of spicy so I asked the other server to please have the kitchen remake it. I took half of the beef dip and dipped it in the au jus. It was incredibly salty and I love salt. I had also asked for a side of mayo I never got. I love mayo on a beef dip. The cheesesteak was brought out again. I don't know if it was the salt I had eaten but the cheesesteak was very bland. I will say that the beef was very tender and the rolls were great. I think this was maybe an off day. I would probably return for the meatball fries and maybe try other menu items. I'm just not sure about that at this point. 3.5 out of 5. read more

This is a cool place to be. Downtown In carlsbad village. There are lots of parking lots but when we visited- it was crowded. We finally got one of those parking lots that had a two hour limit. We were immediately seated. We took an outdoor spot- right at the entrance . Relaxing vibe. We ordered out drinks- hubby got a beer and I got monkey tail. Drinks arrived within 15 minutes. I didn't think monkey tail was that great. It tasted more like coffee drink rather than something woth banana liquer. The kahlua overpowered everything. Hubby got the san diego- carne asada and I got the boston( pilgrim) and a side of onion rings. Food took about 20 min approximately to come out. I ain't complaining because they were delicious. Onion rings were hot and crispy. Hubby's san diego sandwich was a little greasy. But mine.... oh mine was fantastic. It was my little thanksgiving feast on a bun. The stuffing was like little discs of heaven. Everything else in the bun played very well together. It was delicious!!! This place was also dog friendly! All the servers love dogs and stop to say hi to our pup. We love it. They also had merchandise available for purchase. Unfortunately since we are moving out of state. We probably won't have the chance to come back. Good job and good luck for the future!! read more

Came in on a Friday night. It's a seat yourself type of place. Bartender is very friendly. There were no waitresses but Bartender took our orders quickly and Bus Boy brought our food out. I ordered a Titos Vodka Martini without any mixers, just Lemon squeezed in. Printed on my receipt was, "Titos $13 as Martini + $2.00". $15 for Vodka and a $2 up charge for the wedge of a Lemon squeezed in a Martini glass? Ordered the Patty Melt $21 which came with fries. However, my friend ordered the PO Boy sandwich $23, and fries were not included. All sandwiches were Al La Cart. The Patty Melt was just okay. Meat was dry. Fries were crispy, French Fry, "Bits" and not really full fries. I wouldn't recommend this place unless you just want to grab a beer and watch Sports. There are a ton of TV screens for watching games and the employees were super nice. read more
