The grill at Vine Ripe is like an old friend. I have eaten many many weeknight dinners after I get…read moreoff of work. The food feels like it nourishes my spirit. Idk if it's the flavors? Or the obvious care that they make each order? Tonight I got a Cali shawarma wrap after a long hiatus of not eating here(no particular reason). The wrap is such a perfect mix of flavors, it was stacked up with meat and constructed so well. Every bite hit nothing was wasted I ate every crumb. The character of the meat and the ratios of ingredients and flavors makes this basic wrap something that made me feel something. Eating it felt like having a meal with an old friend. Like when you haven't seen someone in a long time but when you do see them, nothings changed and you just effortlessly fall back into conversation like you had never left. Thank you Vine Ripe and those guys behind the grill. Ya'll are truly doing great work and I'm thankful I have the opportunity to eat here.

My significant other loves the Cali Shawarma wrap. Portions are huge, service is great. Same team always working. I love that it is connected to the grocery store, so we can browse when waiting for our food to be made fresh. Ambiance is very casual.

We ordered the 'That's My Boy' and 'Meet Meat' pizza plus their fries. Their deep dishes were light and crispy. I loved the sweet sauce, jalapeño and ricotta cheese combo on That's My Boy pizza. The Mastiff Fries had a wonderful crispy texture. They are like thinly sliced potato wedges. (Our order is without cilantro which normally comes with it) The staff was super friendly and the restaurant was clean. They did have two tv screens playing the sports channel and had a variety of draft beer options.

They have lots of large tables inside that can fit large groups of people. They have happy hour Monday - Thursday from 3pm-6pm and they also have daily specials listed on a board by the register. They have a self serve soda machine and bathrooms. Tried: Kids chicken tenders and fries $12 - real chicken breast. Kid approved. Crispy Brussels sprouts $10 - these are deep fried in oil so there was a pool of oil underneath them. Maybe could have sat a bit to drain better. They were nicely crispy and tasted great. Classic breakfast burrito $11 - their burritos are insanely huge. I have never seen a bigger burrito. I couldn't even finish half. Super hot and fresh. Hungry man breakfast burrito $13 - this one had all the meats. Again, it was ginormous and friend could only finish half. You could definitely share a single burrito between two people. Everything was tasty, portions were large and prices were excellent! Highly recommend.

The portion size for only $5 was a steal and what made it better was that the food was great. The pita bread was bouncy, the chicken had a delicious flavor unlike any chicken shawarma I've had, the lettuce was perfectly crunchy and the tomato was perfectly ripe. Not sure where they source their items from but wherever they're from, they've selected the best. I also had a lovely experience when I picked up my food. The manager, Tom, was very attentive and let me take some samples of their unique salsas. Those were also yummy. Overall, great experience. Oh, if you can, buy a small container of their homemade garlic sauce. Best I've ever had.

The moment I walked in, I was warmly greeted and asked if I wanted a table for one. I said no, I was hoping to order takeout, and she kindly invited me to sit at the bar while I looked over the menu. Right away, the atmosphere felt welcoming, beautiful, and relaxed. I ordered my food, sipped my water, and honestly didn't think I had ordered that much. Then she came out with multiple filled brown bags of food! First of all, the prices were amazing. Second... the food was TOP NOTCH and completely different from what I had the night before. Everything was packed with flavor without being overloaded with salt. Fresh, vibrant, rich, and incredibly satisfying. The waitress/hostess was knowledgeable, friendly, and gave great recommendations on what to try. You can tell the staff truly cares about the experience. I will absolutely be back the next time I visit San Diego again. And not that I recommend eating while driving ... but the next day on my drive back to Ventura County, I spread out my leftovers and happily snacked on hummus, baba ghanoush, and dolma all the way home. That alone says everything about how good this place was.

I came in person recently with 9 friends. They were able to accommodate us even though we were just…read morewalking in. The woman was super friendly even though it was a little chaotic. At first, she said the order only could be done on 1 bill. And then later she compromised with 2 bills, 5 people per table. That was nice of her! I just had 2 coffees before entering so I decided to skip ordering Thai tea. But they had a large drink menu, of fruit teas and more. My friend had the lychee tea which was very large and looked super refreshing! They also came by often to top off our waters which was nice. To eat, I ordered the $16.99~, Cashew Chicken Stir Fry with White Rice. It came with onion, green onion, carrots, zucchini, bell pepper, and cashews. The carrots were beautifully cut, but a little too crunchy for me to properly enjoy in the stir fry. Everything else was delicious! I think this could definitely be shared between 2-3 people. It was a lot for me, even after a large hike. The sauce was flavorful and not overly salty. I didn't ask for any spice level, but I think I'd choose mild or medium next time. My friends ordered-- - $12.99, Dirty Fried Chicken: This had a blitz coating of lime, mint, and spices. And it was decorated with thinly sliced green onions with a side of sweet chili sauce. The chicken was hot and plump, not dry, and very much mouthwatering! Would recommend. - $14.99, Thai Grilled Chicken Salad: Grilled Chicken Breast on a bed of mixed green salad, carrots, and cucumbers with peanut dressing. It reminded me a little of chicken satay~ it smelled and looked incredible. I think I might order it next time, when I want something light and fulfilling after a hike. - $11.99, Cream Cheese Avocado Wontons (6PC): These came out piping hot and when you took a bite they were oozing. It was very creamy and when you dip into the plum sauce it's a delectable bite. A nice appetizer to share with the table. - $16.99-$19.99 (depends on what protein you get), Pad Thai: This proportion was manageable for one person. The restaurant used thin rice noodles, but it didn't clump excessively compared to other restaurants. The prices are what you'd typically see at a Pan-Asian restaurant, a few dollars more than what you'd want to spend. But these kinds of restaurants, in my opinion, are for enjoying with others. So, if you're sharing food and all that-- the price is worth it (esp with the quantity that is given). Next time, I would probably order one of their noodle dishes rather than rice. Oodles by the Noodbar has such a large and diverse menu so I would highly recommend coming in to try them out.

Also, tried the chicken spicy dumplings, they were tough, not that flavorful either. I won't be recommending this place. They are also pricey $25 for 4/5 mini dumplings and spring rolls. Spring rolls were decent but because of all the other stuff I'm giving them a two star. Do better Oodles.

Food in the pizzeria was terrible and they weren't terribly helpful. I had also taken to Arancini. Also pretty bland.

Nothing rude, just not very attentive. I ordered the green chilaquiles and they were decent but definitely on the spicy side so just a heads up if you're sensitive to heat. I added eggs and steak. The eggs came scrambled and were a bit dry and the steak didn't have much flavor which was kind of a letdown. We also tried the oatmeal pancakes. They were okay but leaned more dry than fluffy. They didn't come with syrup and no one offered any. I tried asking for some but the server walked away mid conversation which honestly threw me off. The watermelon smoothie tasted pretty much like blended watermelon with sugar and water. It wasn't bad but nothing I'd go out of my way for. I've been to the National City location before and that one is still my favorite by far. This La Mesa spot just didn't hit the same in terms of food or overall experience. One thing that stood out was the sauce situation. When I asked for sauces I was told I could only have one. I'm big on restaurants being stingy with hot sauce. It just feels unnecessary and kind of takes away from the experience. Overall it wasn't a bad visit but it didn't wow me either.
