Our party stopped in while in town for a wedding. Cody, our server, was amazing, well as the food and drinks. I had the Cowboy Cold brew, and the bride had the Purple Haze for drinks. We had a wide variety of meals including the avocado toast, California Sandwich, Wyatt Earp burger, a hash, and a couple smash burgers. Each one was delicious! You cannot go wrong with anything you order. The decor was on point and I sent pics to a friend who is a descendant of Doc Holliday and she thought it was fabulous and will visit if she makes her way to the San Diego area. Definitely recommend this place. 5 stars all around!! read more

I came back to try this place again with my boyfriend since he loves eating out for breakfast. We came on Memorial Day around 10am and the place was decently full. Unfortunately...they were short-staffed once again. I've been here on a sunny Sunday and now a holiday and they have been short-staffed....one bartender and one server. You would think on weekends or holidays they would bulk up the staff. We ended up sitting at the bar since it was just the two of us. We saw at least 2 parties wait at the door to be seated but walked away after standing at the door for a while because there was nobody to greet, seat or clean the tables. This is probably the only place in Old Town that opens at 7:30am everyday that serves a good breakfast menu....that is not totally Mexican influenced given its location in Old Town so that sets this place apart from every restaurant within 3 blocks. I got the Birria Omelet which was pretty good and packed with tender beef and a little kick with the jalapenos. The hash browns are like smashed tater tots that are fried to a crisp which were tasty. My boyfriend got the All American Breakfast which he loved. He said the sausages had a nice hint of rosemary in them and he loved the hash browns too. We also got a pancake on the side which was a nice sweet complement to my savory dish (I ate the whole damn thing). The breakfast menu is good here but they need to work on staffing the place properly in the future. I still stand by my 3 star rating because of the short staff which turns into longer wait times but the breakfast is good here if you're looking for a place that opens early that is NOT The Broken Yolk. :0P read more

Kind of disappointing. The burger's are a bit pricey, which I get because of the location. But the food isn't worth coming back for. The burgers are pretty plain and the patties are overcooked and dry. The fries are good though. We got the Caesar salad to go, and were surprised at how much dressing they put and how small the salad was. The service was great, though. We placed a to-go order with our server, she was pretty great, but the food took a while to get out even though the restaurant wasn't busy (~6/7pm). read more

What a cute place! Blue velvet banquettes. Saloon style decor. Trivia! We had the best time doing trivia as a family. And we came in second place I may add. The service was good considering there were two people serving the entire place. I got a super watered down well tequila soda. But hey for $6 or 8 not bad. The salad was surprisingly good. Had a chipotle ranch and I added shrimp. I think I was supposed to get avocado with it but not sure. Fries were solid. The rest of my family got the smash burger and loved it. One got the plain, one got the peppercorn sauce and one added the egg. Every one was happy. We will definitely be back! read more

We had higher expectations for this place based on their IG page.... Great concept. Cool decorations, music & chill vibes. Service was ok. Waitress didn't really check up on us & seemed like she was avoiding eye contact with her guests.... What we ordered: * Cowboy Chili - Tasted like canned chili & they forgot to bring our biscuit. Eventually they did & the biscuit was very tasty. $11.99 * Smoke Show - Smash Burger w/ pork belly. The pork belly had a freezer burn taste to it. $13.99 * Onion rings - Tasty. However they are a charged as a side. $5.99 * Purple Haze - $12.99 * Strawberry Shortcake Milkshake w/ shot of Frangelico - $24.99 read more

Literally LOVE this place! I was so impressed. I was randomly in old town and STARVING and walked by it and decided to give it a shot. I honestly wasn't expecting much and holy heck it was SO GOOD! First off the vibe and ambiance is so freakin' cute! But the food is AMAZING. May sandwich was crispy, juicy, so much flavor and just the right texture of breading. The Roasted shredded chicken was literally the most flavorful shredded chicken I ever had it was crazy. And my float was so yummy! I'm sober right now so I was excited to have so many fun options that didn't involve alcohol. However I looked at their cocktail list and it looked so yummy too! I can't wait to indulge once I decide to incorporate alcohol in my life again. Can not recommend this place enough! Oh also my bartender was very sweet and attentive, I wish I caught her name. Definitely give this place a shot! Yum yum yum! read more

Really cute restaurant just outside of Old Town San Diego. We ordered the Vendetta Ride and Johnny Ringo and updated one order of fries to truffle fries. The Johnny Ringo was very good, as were the regular fries. Truffle fries were good, but a little lackluster in the truffle department. I asked for the Vendetta Ride with the sauce on the side, but it was served with the sauce on the burger. Also, I thought the mushrooms would be sliced mushrooms but instead they were minced up in the sauce which was disappointing. I thought they'd left the mushrooms off at first, and when I asked the server even he had to go check with the kitchen because he didn't see them on the burger. But when he came back he explained that the mushrooms are in the sauce. The dessert drinks looked good, but we were both too full after our meals to try them out this time. read more

This is a great addition to Old Town. The new saloon look of "Doc Holiday" is absolutely a place he would've loved. It's got that warm, old-school saloon vibe -- lanterns on the tables, wood everywhere, relaxed but lively. You walk in and it just feels easy. No pretending. Just a solid bar with good energy. I ordered the JOHNNY RINGO (fried chicken, super greens coleslaw, hot honey) and it was legit. The chicken was actually crispy, the slaw had a fresh crunch, and the hot honey gave it that sweet heat that makes you keep going back for another bite. Exactly what you want from bar food done right. The SMOKE SHOW 13 is not playing around -- double smash patties, double American cheese, marinated pork belly, onion ring, BBQ. It's stacked, messy, and fully committed. Come hungry. And my cocktail was the Loving Man -- vodka, passionfruit liqueur, lemon, agave. Bright, refreshing, dangerously easy to drink. If you like passionfruit, order it. Immediately. Old Town needed a spot like this. It's fun, it's inviting, and it fits right in. Definitely worth checking out. Five stars. read more

Got the Smoke Show burger, the chicken, and a root beer float--every single thing was amazing. The pork belly on the burger was the standout: perfectly cooked, rich, and balanced, not overpowering. Everything felt elevated and very well made, not just standard bar food. Huge shoutout to our server Jeff--super helpful, knowledgeable, and genuinely made the experience better. This place absolutely nailed it, and I'll 100% be back. read more

What used to be a run of the mill taqueria diagonally across from the Old Town Trolley Tour stop is now Doc Holliday's. It's a bar and grill that's named in honor of a cowboy legend from the 1800's. The interior was redesigned to resemble a modern Wild West saloon. The bar was to the left when you walked in. A row of small two top tables was arranged in the middle of the room. The right side was lined with booth style seating. Two workers were staffing the bar when I arrived. A limited menu of five burgers, three sides, three milkshakes, and lobster mac & cheese was being offered during the soft opening period. Two of the burgers contained beef patties. A fried chicken fillet, tempura fried cod, and lobster cake made up the other three "burgers." A side of french fries came with a burger order. I selected the Moby Dick which was the tempura fried cod dressed with super greens coleslaw and caper remulad. I requested the Truffle Parmesan Fries instead of plain fries. The upgrade incurred a one dollar surcharge. I found the truffle and parmesan flavors to be intense on the fries. That was a good thing because some places apply a weak amount of seasoning. The cod fillet was fried nicely and served on a sesame seed wheat bun. Weekend brunch, steaks, and other offerings will eventually be incorporated into the menu after the full grand opening. That date is unknown at this time. For now, I gave a four star rating for Doc Holliday's as the $15 price for the fish sandwich and seasoned fries was a good value. read more

So, uh, you don't exactly expect a legit cocktail experience in tourist trap central. But you kind of get that here. I'm not talking over the top rare Brazilian flower essence with a reduction of.. blah. I'm talking, make me a drink, make it good and they do. They pass themselves off a little themed like an old town saloon, and that kind of is there, but decent drinks a place where there is just not that much around. read more

My friend brought me here last weekend and it was delicious! I got the McHolliday and upgraded the hash to dirty hash which is basically the hash brown version of In and Out Fries animal style. It was amazing. I also got the Cocoa Puff cocktail which was a fun cream based cereal drink. There was no wait, the restaurant and bathroom were clean and well decorated and our server was attentive and friendly. I would recommend 100%! read more

Went yesterday for Mother's Day with my family of 6 and we had a real good experience. Loved the old saloon look and feel of it, which is great for the Old Town experience. No waiting since we were early and had a reservation. The staff had apologized to us upfront for service since they were down a couple of ppl (which was good to know). The service attentive and were friendly. The food, was the best part. I had the Birria Omlette with Irish potatoes and sourdough bread. It was so delish and came on a big plate and filled up. The Omlette had been stuffed with onions, bell peppers, jalapeños, and lots meat. My whole family e joyed the food and the price was very reasonable. Chatted with the owner and he is a very nice guy. read more

I came here with a friend around 7:30 PM on a Friday, and we grabbed seats at the bar. Our waiter was awesome. Super friendly, attentive, and made sure we were good the whole time. The space itself is adorable. I love the overall vibe and decor. It feels cozy, but still lively, and the playlist was on point all night. We ordered: * Vendetta: easily one of the best burgers I've had. It's on the smaller side, but the flavor makes up for it. The peppercorn sauce was incredible. I don't like mushrooms, and the chef was kind enough to separate the sauce from them, which I really appreciated. You can add fries for $1.99 and definitely do it. The portion is huge. They're medium cut, super crispy, and topped with Parmesan. So good. * Shepherd's Pie: I hate to say it, but SKIP THIS. It tasted more like a soupy lasagna with a red sauce base. No veggies, barely any mashed potatoes on top, and nothing like a traditional shepherd's pie. It was a total letdown. Overall, the staff were great, the atmosphere is super cute and welcoming, and that burger alone is enough to bring me back. I'll definitely return for the Vendetta and fries. read more

Food was ok definitely nailed the concept factor of being a cowboy themed bar. The waitress seemed distracted and I noticed that it was either the owner or manager that was sitting at the bar and I noticed that he took a picture of a plate of food that was sent back. Maybe there is a change in chef's or something else. But all in all I feel we paid for ambiance and the quality of the food was lacking. So again this is my opinion. Maybe will do a redo visit. The side biscuit with the cowboy chili is the star of the meal that is read more

Solid burger, needs a little more seasoning or smoke on the pork belly to really make it pop but otherwise solid burger. Excellent staff, Mylie behind the bar if I'm remembering correctly was bright and attentive. Vibes are decent, neat aesthetic in the bathrooms and the general vibe is good without being too kitschy. read more

The space is so cool! They did a great job at styling this place. The menu has a good variety and the pricing is amazing for a touristy area! Some drinks are named after quotes from the movie Tombstone, and as a super fan of that movie I got a kick out of it. I ordered the vegetarian omelet, but for some reason was given one with sausage (?) I don't like wasting food, so I ate it anyway. It was pretty good. I definitely will be coming back. read more

We looked through the saloon doors and it looked nice so we went in for lunch. It was raining pretty steady but busy and yet we were greeted immediately by the bartender and felt welcome He invited us to sit anywhere so we chose a table by the window. There was a steak special but we opted for a burger and fries . The drinks had Doc Holiday theme names including Kate's Kiss and some Old West names. Several craft beers on tap & Rolling Rock were options. The bar tender was quick and friendly to all the patrons at the bar and tables yet expressed appreciation for our patience. Our drinks & food orders arrived pretty fast. Our food arrived hot & delicious . read more

This place was pretty disappointing. Tombstone is my favorite movie and Doc Holiday is my favorite character so I was expecting to be wowed. I was pretty letdown. The decor is just old western and very little to do with Doc Holiday. The entire bar has one picture of Doc Holiday and it's at the end of the hallway that leads to the bathroom. I feel like if they're gonna call the place do holidays they should spruce up the decor and menu with more doc Holiday themed items. read more

Doc Holliday's is THE new spot in Old Town - delicious hand-crafted cocktails, excellent food, and an old-world feel that teleports you to the Gold Rush fur-trapper days! The interior of the restaurant is cozy, intimate, and inviting - a great date night spot! My server Jeff was very thorough and helped give me suggestions on the food - Let's be real, I'm a cod girl through and through so I ended up ordering the Moby Dick with a side of truffle parmesan fries - it was SO good! I couldn't stop eating the fries and that Caper Remulad - yum! Next time I NEED more! Thank you for the recommendation Jeff! I wanted the bartender to whip me up something off menu which he had no problem doing - I just told him my spirit of choice and boom! Beautiful, balanced, delicious!

We had eaten prior to finding this little Gem. But, we thought why not go grab a drink and relax. I had the Cowboy Cold brew and my husband had a Whiskey Sour. Both perfection! After sitting for a bit watching the game. We decided to try the bread and had some cowboy chili. Both yummy. The chili has a kick so if you like some spice you will enjoy it. The cheese on top was strange would have preferred shredded rather than a slice. But, flavor was 10/10. We had a shake it was delish. Ambiance is super nice. Dim lighting once it turned dusk. Great music and overall vibe. We loved our server Moh he was awesome and made the experience even better. Can't wait to come back! read more

Came into Doc Holliday's and had one of the best service experiences I've had. Big shout to Jasmine. From the start, she was super welcoming, on point with recommendations, and just had great energy the whole time. You can tell she actually cares about the people she's serving, not just going through the motions. Drinks came out quick, everything stayed dialed, and she checked in at the right times without ever being overbearing. The food was also on point.. the parmesan truffle fries were unreal and the burger was cooked perfectly. Definitely exceeded expectations. What really stood out though was Jasmine's attitude positive, attentive, and made the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. That kind of service is rare. If you come here, ask for Jasmine. She'll take care of you. read more

She made our experience unforgettable, took care of us and kept our drinks full at the brim. During our visit. They have Pepsi products at this location and she well-informed us of our options!
