Its the American Legion! Always the crowd, J's a great bartender and super friendly, cigar night twice a month, good food all week, and always a remembrance of those that served our great country! read more

The service is a 100 out of 10, the food is very affordable and made better than pretty much all of its competitors. The place is clean and full of cool military memorabilia. I took my mom here and it became her absolute favourite spot . Thought is military themed all civilians are welcomed with open arms. Can't compliment the place enough. I reccomend checking their calendar online to see what food they are serving as their menu changes. read more

This is a busy military member post. Friday steak or shrimp dinners at very reasonable price. Sunday mornings have delicious breakfast. Friendly staff and members participate in community events. Meet new people with pool tables or at the bar for an inexpensive drink. read more

This is such a wonderful institution that helps so many vets. Today is cheeseburger Saturday. read more

Disclaimer: I cook (volunteer work) at the American Legion twice a month. This is a long due review. Most of ALR post are closed to public however Vista post is opened to public when food is served (which is pretty much every day for dinner and every sunday morning for breakfast). You can have dinner there for about $8 every evneing (menus are available on their website and are updated weekly). The big plus is their sunday breakfasts. Traditional breakfasts for $4.50 (2 eggs cooked to order, toasts, bacon or sausage and potatoes) for example, but there are many other options and always one special. My favorite special is the Machacca grill served the 2nd week-end of each month. Cheap drinks and super friendly bartender. This place is very clean. You'll also get to know some amazing local patrons! read more

Great place to have a meal and meet other veterans with like interests. Their meal cost and quality can't be beat along with large servings. Breakfast on Sundays is a great value and a bigger hit with everyone. During the month there are events that will keep your interests and always fun. You will not be disappointed as this is the best place to have a great time in the north county. read more

Thursday Wing Night is a great place for wings. Honey & Old Bay are my favorites. There are 6 different types and all are great. If you can't make it on Thursday, come in for the Sunday breakfast 8:30 -11 am. The best breakfast in town. read more

Been here several times with my friends and this place is full of warm welcoming folks. Been here a few times for wing night and while I personally did not like the wings (not a huge wing fan) their ponzu fries are delicious! Also their Sunday breakfasts are massive and well priced. I really enjoyed playing pool and listening to music with friends. The food and the drinks are cheap and goes to a good cause. Highly recommend but be warned you might have to park in the street when they get busy! read more

This post has THE BEST BREAKFAST AROUND!! My wife an I eat here often for breakfast as well as supper on Friday night.

If you want good quality food at a great value then stop by. You are supporting a great organization and getting yourself a good meal. I really really like the hot open faced turkey meal. read more

Spent time with brothers to celebrate another brothers 60th at the facility, the weekend before Veterans Day and just one day before a Corps birthday dinner to be held at the same facility. We were accommodated and had plenty of support from the house. Great place to hold a birthday party and cater it to your desire via your own sources. The post is making meals now for patrons. Sandwiches, soups etc. during the week. Kitchen was ready for inspection. Clean. Outdoor area for smokers and there's a BBQ area. Great set up. We tried the clam chowder Friday when we were recon and prepping. It was good, but I wasn't used to "corn clam chowder". It was taste worthy though, very good and fit for consumption. Playing shuffle board was a kick. Needs a system to display points though. Pool table on site too. The best for last......the bar staff......simply the best...much love to the "beautiful Scot". She was absolutely steadfast and awesome. Not forgetting to mention the house support staff that was on site helping to keep things running smooth. Thanks much to American Legion Post 365 Also the location where the Vista VFW now holds meetings etc. read more

I visited this post as a guest of my BF. We were welcomed warmly with kindness & everyone was so friendly. Everyone went out of their way to make us feel welcome & included. We were informed of all the upcoming events & invited as well. The members took the time to get to know us which was very nice. I was also given all the info to join myself which was very nice & informative. These are good people & this post is wonderful. read more

This was my first visit to an American Legion post, and I had a really good time. I have to be honest that my expectation was that there were going to be grizzled old men sitting around grousing about the government, but that was so totally not the case. From Chris, the Commander of the Post, to Steffie the bartendress, to all the other patrons, everyone was super-friendly and laid back. I would definitely return if I lived in the area. read more

Some of the finest Americans you ever want to meet come to this place. Food is available for dinner just about every night. Prepared by volunteers who cook like pros. All proceeds benefit Veterans programs and the community. Bartenders are friendly and the drinks reasonably priced. Available for private events. Free pool and shuffleboard. Always something happening at American Legion Post 365! read more

This Post is an active friendly post as it should be. You make friends real quick even if your a stranger. I highly recommend you visit and get to know the people there. I'm now live in North Carolina, but anytime I'm back in California I make it a point to stop by and see new faces. Most of the old timers are now gone, but it still carries the same friendliness as before. read more

OK, first off I have been a member here for a few years! But most people don't know that they serve meals here and they are OPEN to the public.

I Sure do like this place. I Wish I could make it there more often. Especially now that they carry local breweries on tap! People are friendly, pool table is free, drinks are well priced, and they have a great steak night. Get over there if you can. read more

Great place to learn valuable life lessons from all different kinds of people. Family friendly and a great family environment. read more

I frequently visited the Post at both the old location and new with my grandmother. She was a longtime member (through her late husband) and volunteer. As a child I volunteered there myself. As an adult I sent my child to help my grandmother... I have always held the people here in great thought. They are welcoming and caring of their members and the families connected. My grandmother was a strong supporter.. and so am I. read more

I met this group at a street fair in Vista and asked about transferring my membership from Florida to here. I bought a Flag in honor of my dad to be flown outside the Legion and was supposed to hear from them. It's October and I've had to contact them. I hope they get their admin stuff together. read more
