    We stopped here for a drink while going to the beach and it's a nice stop to people watch and enjoy the views. We did not go when they had a concert or anything we just sat on the chairs and looked out towards the water. Decently priced and cool spot that looks like a tiki bar.

    First time at FIT Social and I came on a day pass. Parking was very small and limited, and getting into the entrance was confusing -- more direct instructions would definitely help. If you want a chance at a seat, get here really early. We arrived right at noon (when they open) and it was already super packed. We ended up laying out in the turf area with no shade, which was fine, but just a heads up if you're hoping for a chair or table. The day pass price is pretty cheap, and the overall quality matched that price point. What was disappointing was that the women's sauna was shut down -- this was the main reason we came, to recover and use the sauna. It would be great if they notified people before booking, because I would've chosen a different day had I known. The vibe felt more like a fit, calm day‑club or pool‑party vibe (minus the pool). I was expecting more of a recovery and relaxing atmosphere, but this wasn't that. They do give you a water bottle and towel, which is nice. There's also a bar and food area with a mix of healthy options and alcoholic/non‑alcoholic drinks. I'd recommend figuring out how to better accommodate day‑pass guests alongside FIT gym members so everyone can enjoy the space. It felt a little too cramped and like there wasn't enough room for both groups.

    Im always looking forward to a lunch post workout and Fit social is the best option. So many healthy dishes and such a great deal when you use your Fit discount. I only wish their kitchen was open a little later, especially with summer coming up.

    Finally had a chance to check out For social - newest beach club in San Diego. As a gym member I was able to use lounge chairs without any minimum spend. Love the club area, lots of lounge chairs, tables and chairs for dining, bar area and also tall tables if you need to work. Menu is on the healthier side and not too expensive. Difficult to find parking in July, but understandable. WiFi not working.

    Happy Hour! Frose, margarita 5 dollars. Great ambiance and service.

    Food, ambience and service fabulous ! Cici was great. Welcoming vibe. Great music. Views of the beach are epic.

    I don't get why people hate this place. My experiences here have been so positive. Yes it's expensive but it's on a beach in San Diego. What do you expect? The atmosphere is great. The food and drinks are too.

    Great place, great venue for an event. The views are breathtaking. Food and drinks were good, and the bartender service was excellent.

    Ahí tuna

    Decided to stop here after skating on the board walk. This new extension of fit athletic club seems like a beach club you'd see somewhere in another country. Beach chairs, bars, etc. It was pretty empty but very clean. I do enjoy that the menu is very health oriented. I had the ahi tuna. It was pretty bland and lacked flavor. My friends had the pesto chicken wrap and they really liked it, Overall, not sure how great of a business move this was for them but we shall see. Staff was nice and good service.

    Ask the Community - Fit Social

    Is it dog friendly?

    Well I seen a cat inside so I assume that a dog would be fine.

    Is there usually a long wait?

    I had visited in the place in November on Friday at 5PM. No crowds. By 7PM the dining hall upstairs was full, still plenty of seats on the balcony. So, in fall or winter, dress well and enjoy the view.

    Are kids allowed?

    Yes :-) We brought my nephew and I saw other children as well.

    Do y'all have a happy hour?

    They have temporary put that on the shelf until Covid pandemic is under control. I just asked that very question during normal happy hour the other day.

    Does anyone know if the beach house is now open? If so, what are their hours of operation during Covid, and what are the safety measurements being taken?

    Beach House is currently open for dine-in and take-out from 11am-9pm! We are currently following state and local regulations to create the most safe and pleasant experience for our guests and employees.

    Are dogs allowed?

    Yes I've seen dogs there, they don't have any problem with animals. It's San Diego and it's on the beach everyone there very friendly and happy!… 

    Anyone tried the bacon wrapped hot dog?

    Does anyone know where there is a link for their happy hour?

    Hello! We currently do not offer happy hour specials and look forward to exploring it in the fall. However, we do have Industry Days on Monday and Wednesday starting June 6 all summer.

    When do the flobarrel and florider reopen?

    This was an attraction at Belmont Park, which is closed. I asked while I was there last month and no one could give me a concrete answer.

The Carne Asada Taco has a smoky beef flavor, and the quesadilla with corn tortilla has that seared cheese effect that you can only get with Oaxaca cheese, which is like a Mexican Mozzarella.

The tacos were around $4 which is pretty average but I thought their tacos were a bit bigger than average and had a good amount of meat. I usually can do two bites at other taco places but I have to take three bites here lol. The cabeza tacos were so tender and the carne asada tacos had a nice smoking taste to them. I also like how they came with a good amount of guac and you can also get a side or extra guac if you want more which was very nice of them. The plain quesadillas are simple but something about it was taste soo good, might be the cheese that they use and their handmade tortilla. I'm not too fan of their ordering system as there are around 5-7 different lines depending on what item/meat you want. If you want carne asada, you have to line up and then you have to line up at another line if you want another type of meat. Some lines are longer than others so I feel like my food gets cold by the time I get my second order and then I have to line up to pay. Both times I came, I came around 10-11pm and they ran out of the green sauce. They have a parking lot in the back so I prefer this location than the one at gaslamp.

But I didn't realize that just about every dish was based on birria. But okay. I love a good, flavorful birria taco. I guess I just didn't order right. I grabbed the Mikes Meal Special, but I was really craving some nice crunchy, cheesy and Jalapeno-hot Nachos. So I thought I would try a half-order of Mike's Nachos. Man! They were horrible. The huge pile of shredded beef tasted okay, but the red gravy got all of the chips that it came into contact with really soggy and unpleasant to eat. Maybe it would have been better if I had eaten it in the restaurant, but it should not have degraded that quickly. And to claim to be Nachos? Why? What was Nacho about this messy, uninteresting dish? The only suggestion of cheese that I got was one stray pipe of yellow processed cheese that could have been mustard for all that I know. There were NO Jalapenos whatsoever. The guacamole was just one spoonful plopped down in the middle of the order. There was really nothing red hot about the food at all. So the sour cream just made it taste incredibly bland. My advice? Always go with as authentic to real Mexican food as you can find. If you really want "Gringo Sonora," I would heartily recommend Del Taco over this restaurant.

It's no secret that San Diego has tacos in…read morespades and being so close to the border, you'd think that a quest to find the perfect taco would be as simple as rolling down to the nearest taqueria. Except, it's not quite that simple. Many beloved staples have gone downhill, while some newer spots that might boast things like a Michelin mention or multiple locations ranging from TJ to Vegas contain more hype and gristle than tender meat and substance. Enter Chula Tacos. Chula is, and always was, the type of place that makes you forget that you're not actually in Tijuana. While part of me misses their OG Market Street location, seeing them with brick-and-mortars feels hard-earned and well-deserved. This location on Palm in IB is relatively easy to access from the freeway, but parking can be tricky. You can safely assume that it will be busy and you will either have to be very lucky or be willing to find a spot on the street. Out of all the times I've been here, it's always been crowded enough that I've never been able to find a table inside, but I enjoy sitting out on the patio next to the ahumederos. The first thing that hits you walking through the door is how amazing everything smells. The queue to the cashier takes you near a window showing the kitchen where you can see the Chula Tacos team making fresh tortillas, slicing meat from the trompos, grilling up jalapenos, nopales, onions, labio, and tripa. For me, it's not so much a challenge to decide what I want, it's more a challenge to keep myself from ordering everything. My usual is four tacos: two asada, two al pastor (but I've heard that I should also try their world famous keka). The tacos though? Perfection. Every time, the asada is the juiciest and most tender I've ever eaten, the al pastor is succulent and flavorful, and no taco in front of me is long for the world. At $3.50 each, every one of them is absolutely loaded. Three would honestly fill me up, but I always want four. After getting burned by spots that ask around 75% more and deliver anywhere between 25-50% less, Chula Tacos feels like an absolute godsend of a Tijuana-style taqueria and I can't see any other contenders being my go-to. So, when I say "Tacos will fix me," what I mean nowadays is "Chula Tacos will fix me."

The highlight of the menu is the Keka Taco. It is incredibly delicious, loaded with flavor, and so filling that it can easily satisfy even the biggest appetite. The only downside to this establishment is the limited parking, which can make picking up your order a bit challenging during busy times. However, the amazing food and generous portions more than make up for the parking inconvenience. If you're in the area, the Keka Taco is a must-try!

I am not a fan of the Gaslight District, which is why I am so mad!! I'm going to HAVE to go back to the Gaslight District!! The food was AMAZING!! I HIGHLY recommend the Potato Flautitas. It's the kind of dish I'm going to dream about, I'm salivating now just thinking about them. I also did the Pick 3 Street Tacos (and actually ordered a 4th). The Ranchero Shrimp and Grilled Veggie were top notch. The Conchinita was recommended by our waiter, and it was interesting, tasty but different. It could have used a little more pickled onion. The only one I would not recommend (shockingly, I thought it would be the easy pass) was the carne asada. It was too greasy. My husband ordered a carne asada quesadilla and said the same, it was too wet and soaked through the tortilla. But there were no many other delightful options, I would say just don't go traditional. But honestly my favorite thing on the plate was the side dish rajas con crema, seriously, that alone is going to drag me down to the Gaslight District. I'm even considering going to a Padres game just for the excuse. I'm salivating again! As for our waiter, Colin, he was fantastic. Very informative, made great suggestions and seemed genuinely pleased by our satisfaction. He was smiling the whole time, friendly and stayed very present. I highly recommend you get yourself through the door at La Puerta and sit down for a meal ASAP. (We ate the food so fast I forgot to take pictures.)
