    Drunken noodle
    Karen P.

    Probably the most decent place to get food here at terminal 2. Very quick and overall ok tasting. I ordered the drunken noodle with tofu and with taxes and everything it came to about $20. Taste 3/5 - I wish it had more time on the wok with higher heat. Tasted like it cooked from an electric stove top. Appreciate the veggies! Decent portion size for the price. Service was good! Cashier greeted and smiled at the customers and was very organized during the mini lunch rush.

    Ordered the fried rice from here before heading home. The workers were all very friendly but there was a hair in my food. Really gross. I couldn't finish it at all. They did refund us for both bowls though, which I really appreciated.

    Drunken noodles with chicken and egg. Made spicy
    S Y.

    Everything is cooked to order. Very fresh tasting. We had the drunken noodles made spicy with scrambled egg and chicken added on. Broccoli, yellow squash, mustard greens and onions were mixed in with the noodles and the dish had really good flavor. One of the better airport meals I have had!

    Once again, I starved myself all day prior to boarding my plane to London. By the time I got to the airport, I needed sustenance, but not just a snack food or fast food. I wanted and needed something GOOD and healthy. Enter Asian Kitchen. Located at the Food Court in Terminal 2 at San Diego International Airport, this was the most viable option for me. At first I wanted to order the Tuna Poke Bowl, but the guy said they were out of tuna for the day. Boo. I thought aabout the Crab Bowl they had in the cold case, but I didn't know how long it was sitting there and I wanted something made fresh. Eventually, I ended up with the Chicken Teriyaki Bowl and that was the one!! Fresh veggies with big chunks of chicken, sitting on top of a bed of fluffy white rice. Just what I wanted, and it satisfied me for a few hours. They had a variety of beverages to choose from, but I went with water instead. They have ordering kiosks but you can also order at the counter. Asian Kitchen is a casual spot for a decent meal if you want more than just fries and a burger. The service was pretty fast and the employees were courteous. I paid around $23 for the Bowl and water, but you know how it is.. airport prices, mannnn!! Worth it in my opinion. I hope they have tuna available if I visit again, otherwise I'd try their spring rolls for sure. ;)

    Chicken Spring Roll with Thai Peanut

    Food was good and quick. Shoutout to Angel for helping with making the ordering and helping with questions. Truly appreciate him!

    Shrimp Salad Roll at Asian Kitchen.

    I miss Saffron Thai! Ordered Salad Rolls with shrimp. Totally flavorless and both the wrapper and the noodles were like eating plastic. $21 for (see Picture). If they were edible I could live with the price, it's the airport after all. Don't waste your money. They did give me a full refund, though. I never do this but I asked for a refund and the employees were immediately responsive and very kind.

    Before flying to another state, I was looking for a dinner spot and decided to try Thai food, perfect choice. I ordered Drunken Noodles with Thai Boba Tea. The food was delicious though a bit oily, it was flavorful, salty, and packed with tasty herbs. I finished my meal with a happy tummy! The boba was great too, and the server was very nice. A perfect way to end the day before my flight.

    I used to fly a lot so I'm always leery of airport food but I figured I'd try this. It was tasty, well prepared, hot and a fairly large size for the money. This is definitely not usual airport fare.

    Shrimp Summer Rolls
    Annie Y.

    I loved that they had a variety of Asian dishes! I was hungry but wanted something light, healthy, and filling before my flight back to New Jersey. I saw that they had three types of summer rolls (shrimp, chicken, or tofu) in the refrigerated section. I decided to get the Shrimp Summer Rolls since they've always been my go to for appetizers! I liked that the peanut and sweet chili sauces were packed neatly on the side and that the portion was just perfect for a quick lunch!

    Red curry
    Stephen W.

    I got the red curry almost no sauce :(. And does not really have any flavor if u like flavorless curry and. Do not like. spicy too This dish will be for you if it had some salt and pepper on the vegetables that would been nice too But this I would pass on if u do not listen to to me maybe it was just a bad day for them. Let me know how you like yours. And post a pic thanks

    It's supposed to be Pad Thai...and it drunken in sweet sauce.
    Gicell S.

    Pad Thai taste like nothing but sugar. Disgusting. It's literally drenched in sweet sauce and its inedible.

    Ordered the dirty rice with chicken, the basil was burnt and made the rest inedible. The cost was 25 dollars with a soda.

    I bought the dirty rice with chicken and a soda for $25. The basil was burnt and made the rest in edible. I was in a hurry for a flight so didn't have the time to return it. It's sad that people don't take pride in their work anymore.

    For airport food, I got a not bad spicy tuna poke bowl and thai iced tea with boba. Total was $34.95. No wait at lunchtime on a Thursday.

I parked for free in the parking lot next door across from the vons, which is just a short walk away It's outdoors, but covered, and you can sit in the Sun or the shade. They take reservations which is great, because I'm noticing a lot of brunch places don't anymore. They have a bar area that you can sit at with a full bar, and a large TV, or several tables you can sit at. I decided to order the Poke nachos, and they tasted pretty fresh. The portion wasn't too small nor too large, I found it just right for me. A little bit more of the sauce throughout as they mostly put it on top, but the taste was great. One thing to note, I ordered a soda and they got it from the movie theater Fountain inside. I'm not sure why but it was very flat and tasted off. Thankfull they did not charge me for it. Also the menu is not 100% accurate, they use the same menu as they do for a separate location, but some of the items are not available such as the assorted pastries. The server seemed like he may have been new but was nice and did try to accommodate us, and answered the questions we had around the menu. I'd definitely visit here again, and it would be a great spot to go if seeing a show at the Lot.

Overall an enjoyable dinner out. However, my wife and I are 99.999% sure that their Chinese BBQ pork bao are the Bao from Trader Joe's. My wife lived off of those Bao during grad school and she was stunned speechless eating them and coming to the realization that everything about them matched the TJ Bao perfectly to a T, right down to the individual wax paper. Now obviously, the Bao are still good, but I paid 13.00 for 3 pork bao that I may or may not be able to 4 of for 6.00 (lol). Again, I am not saying they served us grocery store Bao, I am simply saying that if you put their Bao on a plate next to a Bao from TJ, I would not be able to tell the difference for all the money in the world. Other than that, solid Dim Sum in San Diego, worth a visit. Of course if you aren't local, you can always go to your local Trader Joe's.... :P

Unfortunately, the section overlooking the water wasn't open yet, so we weren't able to get a table on that side. The views are absolutely spectacular though, and I definitely want to come back when we can sit by the water and actually enjoy them. We only had drinks this time, and obviously, for my first visit to Bali Hai, I had to try their infamous Mai Tai. And WOW. There is absolutely no juice in that thing. It is so strong they limit you to two, and after having one, I completely understand why. Consider yourself warned! Our waitress was very friendly and kind, although service was a little slow. I think that had more to do with them changing over for dinner service than anything else. I definitely want to come back, sit by the water, try the food, and maybe order a cocktail that contains at least a splash of juice next time.

She said she'd contact the owner and someone would follow up with me the next day (since it was already closing time). The next day came and went but I never got a call. I called back and spoke with a guy (Ryan I think) who was also very nice and said he'd contact owner. Then I got a call back from him that the owner told me I had to contact Uber Eats for a refund. I told him that I didn't want a refund. I just wanted the owner to know and to just put a credit towards my next order or to remake the order. He relayed that to the owner and told me she said I have to deal with Uber Eats. I contacted Uber Eats who said since 48 hours had passed they don't refund and sent me back to the restaurant, who told me again to contact Uber Eats. Anyway you get the idea. The owner did not even bother to contact me or seem concerned that there was a QC food safety issue. I never asked for a refund but am extremely disappointed by the owner's response or lack thereof. The staff I spoke with were great but the poor leadership will likely be the downfall of this restaurant. It's really too bad, because I have been supporting and rooting for their success since Day 1.

I didn't even realize there were two Slurp locations inside Liberty Public Market, but we ended up going to the smaller one: Slurp Teriyaki & Ramen. The staff was really friendly, and we ordered the Royal roll. It was about $14 for six pieces. Honestly, it tasted exactly how you'd imagine a crab rangoon roll, creamy, savory, and super satisfying. I will say, I wish it was a little more fresh and crispy, but it was still really good overall. They definitely did not skimp on the filling, which I loved, and the sauce had great flavor. It was a bit on the thinner side, but still paired well with the roll. One thing I'll note, it's VERY filling. I was full for a while after eating it. The ambiance was great, and Liberty Station has tons of seating, so it's nice to grab food and explore other spots too. Overall, I get the hype. I'd definitely come back and share it with a friend next time.
