    So happening!
    Bacong F.

    The snobbery can be improved in Chula Vista and that is an oxymoron. We had a party of 3 and the place was EMPTY on a Monday night at 8 am. There were maybe 8 people in the entire place. Host made use wait and let a party in with reservations. We have a group of 200+ that the company paid for us to be at this hotel. We shall take our money outside of the hotel.

    Old fashioned, solid but nothing super special for $30. Would have priced at $22

    Drinks were overpriced but good. I would say gets things that are off menu and recommended from the bartender as that is where you will find the value. Ridiculously try to create an artificial "wait" line for no reason. And no nuts or snacks which makes enjoying a leisurely experience hard. They don't serve any food anymore which makes the artificial very long wait to get in very anticlimactic

    Cute little speakeasy inside of growlers. It is first come first serve. The drinks and small bites really hit the spot and have a great variety.

    I don't remember what my friend had but doesn't it look good??

    A great spot for after-dinner cocktails and a relaxed night with friends. Behind the doors of what looks like a walk-in refrigerator, you'll find a secluded speakeasy for a discerning few. We had the French Kiss, the Golden Gatsby, the Speakeasy Smoke and other drinks custom-made. Everyone enjoyed their drinks as they did not skimp on the alcohol. Service was superb. We hung out for a while and their timing was perfect with check-ins (when we were at the tail end of our current drinks) and most importantly kept our water glasses full. Located in Growlers restaurant across from the stairs.

    Nice welcome from the young lady. This cool speakeasy was recommended by our waiter and bartender next door at Trēo. This cool place is hidden in Growlers bar. Had a glass of Chardonnay and some roasted almonds.

    This is the speakeasy inside of Growlers - the sports bar inside the Gaylord Pacific conference resort. The hostess of Growlers can help you find the speakeasy (fridge door). Was there for a conference event, and then came back the next day for the full speakeasy experience. For the conference private event - top marks. Would hold something like a small wedding welcome cocktail hour here. Cocktails were batched in real time from a preset menu and good. Food was same as the speakeasy experience but served in trays with the waitresses. As a Speakeasy/ craft cocktail bar, this was everything it should be. Mixologists were excellent at a level similar to Oculto 477. The bartender offered a clarified Mai Tai inspired cocktail from the daily specials and it was completely worth the cost. That kicked off a craving for a classic Mai tai like False Idol, Trader Vic's, or Smugglers Cove. The bartender was able to deliver despite not being setup as a tiki bar (no mint garnish, crushed ice etc.) It was made with block ice but the cocktail tasted as it should. Great service, and top notch experience and would return and even consider booking for an event. Excellent ambiance, service and experience.

    Nice hidden speakeasy next to Growlers Sports Bar. Didn't try the food, but the cocktails are good. I ordered the Emerald & Oak, which has a special presentation but I thought is just okay. My wife got the Speakeasy Smoke, which I thought is incredible. Service is fantastic. Cocktails are $25. It's pretty special and has a downtown San Diego vibe, so I recommend checking out this (literally) hidden spot.

    Old Fashion reveal.  Nice touch, but $30?  Really?

    Waited at a rope line until we were let in to a half empty secret room through a freezer. We were a party of two. The room could easily hold 20 more people. Don't understand this! The mystique of a speakeasy secret entrance should not be ruined by a "line" of people waiting to enter when there is plenty of room for them in the first place. Also, the cocktails were beyond expensive. Way, way beyond! The atmosphere was so-so, not fun or "period". I expect a speakeasy to be warm, close quarters with plenty of things to support the concept of a speakeasy. This place is checked off my list!

    2nd old-fashioned. Luxardos upon request and why I will continue to come back here for my old fashioned cocktails going forward.

From the start, our server was inattentive and seemed completely dismissive when we mentioned we were celebrating a birthday. There was no acknowledgment at all, which made the occasion feel overlooked. To make matters worse, on a Friday night they were out of all draft beer, which was surprising for a restaurant and bar that promotes its tropical cocktails and lively atmosphere. Dessert was the biggest letdown. The mango sticky rice was honestly one of the worst versions we've ever had--poorly prepared and lacking flavor. The chocolate cake was so dry that it was practically inedible. The tropical décor and hidden tiki speakeasy "X" are interesting concepts, but the poor service and disappointing food overshadowed what should have been a special birthday celebration. We left feeling let down and will not return.

We were immediately seated, but as soon as my husband and I saw the menu, we wanted to get up and leave. Their menu was very limited, very pricey for the the place & location. But since my daughter was excited to try it, we decided to stay. No bento boxes here, and everything you request is an additional charge, even a tiny amount of teriyaki sauce! My daughter got the Naruto bowl, and my husband, the Teriyaki Chicken Bowl, each one costing $17 EACH. I went with the soy sauce ramen which was $16, and to add an egg additional $1.50. The bowls were only filled with rice, the ramen was filled with scallions, and not much else. The Cali Roll were also mostly rice, no avocado, they were so cheap and did not even add wasabi & ginger! Plus the place was not very clean. In front of where we were seated were dirty bins collecting dirty dishes, and a trash can where servers just dumped everything from trash, to soups, to drinks! It was so nasty, why not place the trash cans inside, where it is hidden, not where customers were dining?!? We won't be coming back. Pls save your money for another Japanese restaurant... the price, portion or taste weren't worth it for us.

    We've been wanting to check out Long Play Hi-Fi for a while, and after finally finding it (which is…read morepart of the experience ).. It's got this hidden, almost speakeasy vibe. You ring the doorbell, wait patiently, and once you're inside, you realize this isn't your typical coffee shop. It's a place to slow down, enjoy the music, and savor your drink. Monique and Danica were both amazing. They're warm, welcoming, and you can really see the passion behind what they do. Danica is also the DJ, and her eclectic playlist made the whole experience even better. One of my favorite parts was just sitting there watching our drinks being made. You can see the care and craft that goes into every cup...even the Kuramoto ice is beautiful. The Matcha Americano completely changed my perception of matcha. The Kyoto cold brew pour-over was fascinating to watch and incredibly smooth. We loved it so much that we came back the very next day. This time I had the Midori, and my brother-in-law loved the Highball, especially the yuzu. No laptops. Trust the DJ. Drinks are meant to be enjoyed fresh, so take your time. If you're looking for a quick coffee run, this isn't it. But if you appreciate great coffee, good music, and people who are passionate about their craft, Long Play Hi-Fi is absolutely worth the visit.

    Went to the Holly Jolly Bar at LTC yesterday. While there, I decided to read the Yelp reviews on…read morehere. I'm not gunna lie, I was nervous for a second because they were all bad . I will say that the experience had improved from what I read. I read that the service was slow and folks felt rushed. Our service wasn't slow and we didn't feel rushed. Our waiter came to our table multiple times and we were able to enjoy everything we ordered in a good amount of time. The welcome drink is the naughty hot chocolate and if I were to have it again I would get it without alcohol. I think it would have tasted better. I don't drink alot though, and I'm more of a bailey's in hot chocolate girlie rather than tequila. So take that as you will. They had some christmas hits playing but they could have added in some more modern versions of the classics to the playlist. The vibe was chill. Definitely get there on time because you have to leave once your time slot is over. We went at the 6p time slot and it was cool. I wonder if it gets more hype in the later time slots. Also, they have high tops and regular tables. I think if you come later, you get places at a high top. I ordered the sliders and they were good imo. I tasted the corn ribs and I really enjoyed those. They were flavorful. My cousins ordered the rolled tacos and they really enjoyed them. They said the chile that comes with the rolled tacos is hot so keep that in mind if you need to stay away from spicy things. Even though these are normally appetizers, I was satisfied with what I ate. It was a good amount of food. We ended up ordering the smores and churros. I did not taste the churros but no one said anything about them so I think the smores were better. I had 2 smores and I might have to buy this little smores kit they had. They were so good. At the end, the grinch came out with some free shots. It was a cool little thing to get into the holiday spirit. We took some pictures for the gram and talked. I will say, I had never been to LTC before so in my mind, I was expecting an actual bar experience. Music, maybe some dancing, lounge seating, etc. That would have been cool but this was nice too. All together I spent around $60 for the whole experience including the ticket and the food.

    Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from here because of the poor reviews, but my group and I were…read morepleasantly surprised. We booked a 4:30pm dinner time on a Sunday about 2 weeks in advance because of the Christmas theme (Holly Jolly Bar) and we were one of the first ones there and seated right away. The admission fee ($19) comes with a welcome hot chocolate drink and we all opted for the non-alcoholic version. We ordered the artichoke dip (our favorite), the rolled tacos, corn ribs and sliders. It was just the right amount for our party of 4, but for the price of ~$15 for each of these plates, I would expect the servings to be much larger. Despite that, they were all pretty good shareables! Service was great, contrary to what previous reviews mentioned. Our server was attentive, constantly checking on us, and our food came out quickly. She even took pics of us which was kind of her. Overall, my friends and I really enjoyed our experience here and we liked that it was nice and intimate instead of loud and crowded. Christmas music was playing the whole time and it was at a good noise level. It probably made a difference too that it wasn't that busy when we went especially with it being after Christmas. Parking isn't really an issue since this is located at the Chula Vista Shopping Mall so there's plenty around, although might be tough to get some right outside with Raising Cane's being right next to this restaurant.

The changes they've made over the past few months have completely transformed the atmosphere, and it shows the moment you walk through the door. The staff is one of the biggest reasons I keep coming back. Everyone is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive, creating an environment where both regulars and first-time guests feel right at home. The service is consistently outstanding, and you can tell the team genuinely enjoys what they do. A special shoutout to Danika, who is absolutely amazing. She goes above and beyond to make every guest feel valued, always greets everyone with a smile, and creates an atmosphere that's warm, inviting, and full of positive energy. Her hospitality is second to none and is a huge reason this has become my go-to spot. I'd also like to recognize Brady, who has been phenomenal every time I've visited. He's personable, attentive, knowledgeable, and always makes sure everyone is taken care of. Together, Danika and Brady help create an experience that keeps people coming back. The cocktails are fantastic, the beer selection is phenomenal, and everything is offered at a price that's hard to beat. I especially love their NASCAR drink specials--they make race days even more exciting and are the perfect excuse to gather with friends and coworkers. The bar is always clean, cozy, and comfortable, making it the perfect place to relax after work or spend an evening catching up with friends. It has a welcoming neighborhood feel where everyone can enjoy themselves, whether you're a regular or visiting for the first time. It's obvious that the ownership and staff have put a lot of effort into making this bar something special, and the improvements over the past few months have been incredible. The Fire Station has become my favorite place in Coronado to enjoy a great drink, unwind, and spend time with good company. If you're looking for exceptional service, outstanding cocktails, a fantastic beer selection, great prices, and an atmosphere that truly makes you feel at home, I can't recommend The Fire Station enough. Five stars without hesitation!
