They check IDs at the door and have to buzz you in. When you enter, the lay out is in a U-shape with the registers in the middle. Drinks are in the back. Flower on the left hand side. Everything else on the right side. Came for something for my dog, left with gifts to give friends - flower, edibles, bongs, and a drink (orange cream and root beer) for me. I'm not really a fan of cannabis. It feels overly complicated with the amount of strands, flavors and uses. But this place seemed pretty straight forward and every where you turned there was a staff member there to point you in the right direction. I would say though that it felt pricey.

One of the reasons I enjoy shopping at CVS is because of the great coupons and savings, and Allison went out of her way to help me maximize them.

We walked in around 12:40 without a reservation. They close at 2:30, but we were still seated pretty quickly. Every employee we interacted with was genuinely friendly. The service never felt rushed even though we came close to close. I also had no idea we walked in during their "US Hour" from 12:00 to 2:30, so that ended up being a nice surprise. They offer $7 draft beers, $9 wine, $10 mimosas, plus a handful of bites for $9. We started with the Fried Calamari Tentacles from the US Hour menu. They're served with Japanese mayo, although it tasted like there was some citrus mixed in because it had a nice tangy kick. Whatever it was, it worked really well with the crispy calamari. To drink, I ordered the Yuzu Matcha Mimosa. It had a really vibrant green color that almost reminded me of green juice. I actually enjoyed it. The matcha flavor came through without getting lost. My friend wasn't the biggest fan because they thought it leaned a little too bitter, so I think this one depends on how much you already enjoy matcha. For my entree, I ordered the Duck and Waffles ($24), which comes with crispy duck confit, a waffle, passionfruit guava sauce, and chili crunch. This was easily the highlight of the meal. The duck was cooked perfectly. It was crispy on the outside, tender inside, and seasoned just enough to let the meat shine. I also appreciated that the chili crunch actually had some heat instead of just being there for texture. The waffle was light and fluffy. I'm a sucker for sweet and savory combinations, so the powdered sugar paired with the rich duck was enough to win me over. The passionfruit guava sauce was the only part I wasn't completely sold on. It wasn't bad by any means. I just think it's one of those flavors that comes down to personal preference. This ended up being one of those meals that reminded me why I keep a running list of places I want to try. Great food. Great service. A fun happy hour that I accidentally stumbled into. My only wish is that parking in North Park was a little easier, but that's just part of the neighborhood. I'd definitely come back.

I watched the table carefully pick around this one lone barely sugared piece. Ngl, I like the ones at Disneyland better. Both me and a daughter ordered the Chunky Avocado Toast with a poached egg, we both felt that the toast was a little tough. Good avocado spread and the egg oozed well. I tried their house hot sauce with it but wasn't too impressed with it. I also ordered a side of the House Potatoes. These were awesome. Crisp outside but not over done , well seasoned. Totally recommend. Wife ordered the Mushroom Chazuke. Mix of seasonal mushrooms. She liked it a lot. Tastes some of the mushrooms. Earthy but not overbearingly so. The wild rice and poached egg made for a pretty good mix. Other daughter got the Curry Hamburg. She likes her curry, especially Japanese curry. While she did not get transported to Tokyo she did give it a thumbs up. This place is pretty busy and I was fairly impressed with the attentiveness of our waitress. Waters kept full which was handy as it was a bit hot and my car was a good walk away. Would like to visit again and try other menu items.

I recently had a fantastic experience at Clairemont Smoke Shop, and I couldn't be more satisfied with their products and service. The owner, Ivan, is not just a store owner but a genuinely great guy who goes the extra mile to make you feel welcome. One of the standout aspects of this smoke shop is their unbeatable prices on energy drinks and snacks. I was pleasantly surprised to find that their prices are super close to cost price, making it an affordable and convenient stop for a quick energy boost or snack. What's even more impressive is the staff's commitment to their customers. As a frequent buyer, I've received some amazing "hookups" from the employees, which adds a personal touch to the shopping experience. A particularly noteworthy aspect is their generous gesture towards law enforcement. They offer all cops $1 drinks and snacks, which is not only a fantastic way to show appreciation but also creates a sense of community and support. If you're in search of smoking accessories and supplies, Clairemont Smoke Shop has you covered with a huge variety of options. Whether you're a casual smoker or a seasoned pro, they have everything you need. Overall, Clairemont Smoke Shop is a gem of a store with exceptional prices, friendly and accommodating staff, and a welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend this place for all your smoking and snacking needs. read more
