    Decent breakfast fare attached to a hotel This was the food location for the hotel I stayed at in San Pedro. The staff were very friendly but were very easily overwhelmed when people would come out of their room for breakfast. The breakfast buffet is very much your standard hotel affair. They allow either a buffet or a single item off their regular menu with any drinks you would like. We ordered exclusively from the menu to get the freshest items. Servers were very friendly, but the amount of people made it almost impossible for them to keep up. This place needs more help during the morning hours to handle the amount of orders coming in. This lead to a lot of delays and clear corner cutting when possible. Which is a shame, cause the food is actually not bad for the quality of ingredients given. The chef knows how to season and balance flavors. The problem is the ingredients. Even the most talented chefs can only do so much with powdered eggs and cheese slices. But they do try, and the fresh ingredients are treated with care. I feel that if the chef was given more responsibility for their ingredients and more staff to help with the flurry of orders, then this place could shine. The potential is there, but as of right now it's lacking.

    Good drinks and no driving. Perfect pairing. Restaurant here too which we are trying to perfect night to visit when cruising the next day. Only 5 mins from marina.

    The bar has a nice selection of appetizers and happy hour drinks. Gets busy with cruise passengers but service is quick. Great place to start a cruise from the day before you embark on the ship.

    If you are in the area, this is a great place for happy hour drinks. It's near the port/cruise terminal.

    Came during happy hour and overlapped into dinner service. The bartenders were super nice. Food was way better than expected. Definitely worth dining here.

    This little breakfast buffet opens at 6:30 am. They do have a little menu but only for to go items. What we had was really good. They had regular scrambled eggs and scrambled eggs with cheese and possibly ham. They have cubes potatoes and fried onions and bell peppers. Pancakes, sausage Pattie's, crisp bacon and link sausage. They also have toast, waffles, cereal, oatmeal, biscuits and gravy, some fruit, yogurt, and a lunch meat assortment. Coffee and orange juice are included in the price for $21. Service was great, coffee was never empty and it was really good coffee. Seating was very comfortable and it was clean and well stocked. Danie was the gentleman who took us to our table and he never stopped the whole time we were there. Great experience

    This restaurant/bar is located inside of the Crowne Plaza in San Pedro. I was there for work. Bar is quite nice so is the seating. On the weekends it gets pretty packed but during the week it's normal and not so busy. They do get a rush, depending on when the cruise liners dock in the bay. Bartenders are awesome and so is the staff. One of the main managers likes to have drinks there. He was a regional manager traveling and was attending to the restaurant. Me and my coworkers ended up, chopping it up with him. We got a couple of free drinks and honestly, the ambience was amazing. Had a bunch of beers and my favorite food was the lemon garlic Parmesan wings. I've never had them taste so amazing like these. Decent food as well. The other day I had the steak. All in all this is a great place to have a few drinks and some bar food.

    This restaurant is located in the Crown Plaza hotel that we stayed in while visiting San Pedro. The best Huevos Rancheros is from this restaurant! What so good about this is the way the presented it in front of my face plus the ingredients they mixed in. I didn't know that avocado is allowed in Huevos Rancheros? Do you know about this? The black bean was one of the best. That sauce mixing with black bean was a reason I gave this place four stars. They made quality huevos rancheros and I approved this. When I said I wanted my sunnyside up well done in the bottom, they got it right. The next time I came for breakfast I tried the buffet but honestly, I prefer my huevos rancheros more than anything else at this restaurant. The buffet offers lox, egg benedict, bacon and sausage, pancake and waffle, bagel and french toast, good coffee and juice, etc. Greg, the waiter was really good but he was the only one working, so the service took a little time to process. Again, for the second time, I left my purse and when I went upstairs to the room, Greg called to let me know that he has my purse. Wow! Greg saved me! Thank you! I must have been hypnotized by all the food that made me forget to take my purse back with me. Hubby and I only came here for breakfast. We passed by the restaurant at night and didn't see a lot of people here due to the location that is so close to many local restaurants.

Not because it was featured on a news segment, or something similar, but because I saw it on an episode of Monk. It was used as a background prop. Funny what writing helps you remember, and hopefully what you remember is good stuff. Before I stepped into this bar, I expected it to be a Diver bar, in the grittiest sense, but I was wrong, it is a Dive bar in the most exciting of ways: It is a collection of tchotchkes (a fancy word for trinkets) that when admired as a whole and then independently give this place a whimsical personality. Imagine having a friend that when invited to a pool party wears a bikini with a fun print--- like cherries or flamingos, and is always down for a shot and playful mayhem. Being around this type of personality amps up the party soul of a moment because their vibe is that of a buzz-nurturer. Meaning that when I was in the bar, and all it has to offer, made me want to have a good time, regardless of what I carried in from the outside. The place gives immediate Tiki Bar vibes but does not carry the moment to full fruition. For example, in my pictures I show curtains with Tiki Idols, and a light fixture adorn with its own hula skirt but the Tiki motif does not transport one to a Luau where dancers sway as they wait for a pig to finish roasting. Instead, the Tiki vibes are sharply contrasted with posters and other keepsakes that are both aspiration and life lessons. For instance, one reminds us to leave your drama outside. Another hanging placard lists advisories that (straight) men should adhere when hitting on women. One of these is the fact that some women's sexual preference is NO. Another poster explains what happens when girls drink too much. One of the 10 outcomes is that women confuse the kitchen floor for their mattress when laying down. Like I said, all of these small and bigger touches combine to give this place a personality that draws one to have a good time. For me, there were two standout items in the place- 1) a jukebox and a 2) pool table. I was with three people that played pool better than me. One of them explained the purpose of a chalk mound. One is suppose to rub the place between their thumb and index finger to get chalk right in there. Then rub the chalk on the stick. This will create less friction which will help you shoot better. I did all that. This moment also allowed me and another member of my group to have a lot of hard wood jokes-- what are you going to do, we were having a good time at this place, and these jokes felt right. The jukebox was also free. I played Ariana Grande's version of Popular from Wicked and I felt the song. I was warbling loudly, and off key, and dancing because I was feeling the tune and the drinks. At the end, some of the people in the bar clapped and hollered. I went to put in another song I was stopped, the regulars were watching football on a Sunday, go figure. That is the thing about this bar, it is a regular's bar. People knew each other, people knew I was the first timer. Like when I spoke, two or three people answered my question. When I was looking for the key a customer directed me to it. So this place is definitely a place where regulars are at. And if you know anything about dive bar culture, regulars who know each other make a community. So you will need to navigate these dynamics if you attend. For instance, one of my friends was in the bathroom, doing the business of two. A regular opened the door and my friend was like, I am here, closed the door. The regular did not close the door, instead he made a joke about leaving the door just a bit open, while being a bro about it. I was horrified just being a witness. But between bar flies these type of jokes might be understood as joyful. But it would take me an alternate life to find humor in potty politics. I was introduced to the White Tea shot and it has become my new shot so this place left a mark on my taste buds. The shot at the end had this strong green tea taste. The prices were right too! I can't wait to go here again, when the party vibe calls me forth! Oh and it is cash only, unless you spend 40 and above then it is card appropriate.

Instead of apologizing or taking the time to verify the payment properly, I was treated like I was trying to avoid paying. I decided to give this place a second chance, and unbelievably, the exact same thing happened again. This time, my partner showed the bank transaction proving the payment had been processed, yet he and his brother were still treated with suspicion and singled out. After experiencing this twice, it's hard not to feel like we were being unfairly targeted. The way we were treated was disrespectful, humiliating, and completely unacceptable. It left us feeling profiled rather than treated like valued customers. We will never be coming back, and I cannot recommend this brewery to anyone expecting respectful or professional service. If you have specific details about what was said or done that made you believe the treatment was racially motivated, including those facts in your review can make it more persuasive and credible. RACIST to say the least !!!!!

I called in the order. The staff was friendly on the phone and helpful in choosing my meal while I sat in 405/110 traffic. I ordered the chicken kebab plate: (1) chicken skewer, rice, grilled tomato/jalapeño, pita, hummus and tzatziki. I was skeptical at the price of $25, but thought this has got to be good with all these great reviews. I was told 15 minutes. I walked in the restaurant after 22 minutes and she asked for another 5 minutes, so I ordered a beer and sat at the bar. There were 2 sorry tables, 6 people dining total. It's a beautiful delicately decorated restaurant, white and gold accents. They have beer and wine only. From the looks of it, they have some nice wines and sparkling wine only by the bottle. I did not fully understand the menu, it seemed like it was confused about the genre of cuisine and lacked an identity in my opinion. It took her a couple minutes to get the beer and the food came out very shortly after. When I removed the contents of the bag at home, I was immediately disappointed. The portions are quite small. Any place I've ever ordered a kebab plate, there's been plenty of food for two meals, because I eat small portions. That was not the case for this restaurant and at such a high cost. And on top of that, the food was lukewarm, and I only drove to my destination less than five minutes away nor did I stay to finish my beer. I called to ask about the pita cause I couldn't find it in the bag. She said it was below the rice, and I asked oh that's an interesting way to serve it...Is there a reason for that and she said it soaks up the grease of the chicken, and it's much more flavorful to dip in the hummus and tzatziki. The hummus and Taziki are in a 1 ounce plastic ramekin. The tzatziki was good, but the hummus had no flavor and with oily. The pita is below the rice making it appear that there is more food than actually exists in the smallest to go container. The pita was in fact saturated with grease, and had that rancid turned grease taste. I also realized the meat is not chicken breast but chicken thigh, and although it was tender, it lacked flavor. The rice, lacked flavor, the tomato and jalapeño were not seasoned or ripe, and the hummus also flavorless and greasy. After spending $45 on a chicken kebab plate with a beer, small portions and such bland flavors, this is not a place I'll return too. They seem to be very well liked and I'm happy for them.

When we arrived, the restaurant was about half full and there was live music occurring on the patio. We opted to sit inside where it was a little less noisy and there was a comfy and cozy booth calling our name. The vibe was great, with fun and eclectic decor. The service was really upbeat and friendly and our server was so kind and helpful. We asked him if the espresso martini had dairy in it (which I just discovered that is a thing at some places) and he double checked with the bartender to ensure there wasn't my dairy in it! I ordered that alongside a falafel wrap I must say, both of these worked so well together. The espresso martini was light and refreshing yet still had a bold flavor. The falafel was nice and crispy with a delectable inside and the tahini sauce was so rich and creamy. The meal felt indulgent yet hearty all at the same time. I left feeling so uplifted and relaxed all at the same time. Despite it being on the noisier side, I was still able to hear my friend well and it was such a great place for us to catch up.
