My Volo kickball team comes here after our games to hang for a bit. The outdoor area has big jenga and a free pool table. It's a simple and fun spot to share a few beverages and have good conversation. Also parking isn't an issue because it backs on to an industrial park. read more

JT's is a neighborhood bar. You'll mainly see locals and regulars here. They don't have a drink menu so be prepared and know what you want. Very casual place and they have karaoke on certain nights. You basically seat yourself and make yourself comfortable. The kitchen is closed on Mondays and open at 3pm on other days. Cash, Venmo and Zelle only. It's operated by one chef called Beto's Kitchen at JT's. We've been here many times. Wings take awhile so we call to place an order and come pick up. We had Prime Rib Friday's for $24 that comes with roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes. Perfect seasoning but the piece of meat was very chewy. Loved that the beer battered onion rings did not fall apart and maintained crispiness. Also got chicken nachos which were loaded and had fresh fried tortilla chips. Parking is tight, either in front of 7-11 or in the back. They have an outdoor patio with a pool table and games as well as tvs. read more

Cool after-plan if you started with dinner at Rosati's a few doors down. Luke is a super helpful, personable bartender. I believe he mostly works Saturdays. Karaoke scene is pretty chill compared to other places. Parking seemed OK if you get there before 9. read more

We were in town on vacation and needed a place to watch a game. JT's was a pleasant surprise. We ordered a club sandwich, Philly cheesesteak and a pastrami melt. All were amazing. read more

Beto runs his kitchen and has a huge menu but I suggest any of the tater tots plates. He is closed on Mondays.. Every bartender there is awesome and knows their drinks. Happy hour is everyday 3p-7p which is longer than most places. They also have karaoke most nights. This is one of my favorite spots read more

went there for karaoke after the SDSU basketball game. pretty good place but very crowded.

My club sandwich was out of this world, and my beer was cold and fresh. The chef and the barkeep were super friendly. I will definitely be back. read more

Food is amazing Beto's kitchen, service is great very friendly and the ambiance is perfect. Great place to watch Sunday football! read more

JT's Tavern - Loaded carne asada tater tots with eggs on top. - Karaoke Near Me - San Diego, California

Was driving by and decided to check it out. I asked for an Irish Coffee, but the bartender said "no coffee". No coffee at all?! No coffee at a bar?! How do you make coffee drinks without coffee? What's up with that? Or is the bartender just too lazy to make it? No coffee? Bye!! read more

I've been coming here for almost 2 decades. The place has gone through some minor changes over time, but the comradely and fantastic friendliness of the staff remains the same. Good prices, some nights have Kareoke, impressive little kitchen. Come sing a song and have some bomb nachos with me! read more

Good food, outstanding service from all the bartenders (Brandon, Luke and Sarah) Friendly doormen who always make you feel both welcome and safe. Fun karaoke hosts - i think 5 nights a week. Great place to stop in for a drink or two. read more

I tried another sports bar near my home. It's called J.T.'s Tavern. It's located on Mission Gorge rd. off the 8 fwy. I called and spoke with Foxer the bartender and informed me that there was NFL Ticket to watch all the games. That was good news because my team Steelers vs Bucaneers wasn't on basic cable. The place is small and not very much parking space. I found a space because it was a morning game. I get there and met Foxer the bartender. She pointed where the Steelers game was playing. The majority of the crowd were 49ers, Jaguars, and Ravens fan. I noticed there is a patio in the back that could hold maybe 30 people out there. There are tvs and you can possibly smoke. This place has a small kitchen that provides breakfast, sandwiches, finger foods like wings and fries. The bar had beer of the month for $3.50 for Miller High Life and Rolling Rock. Not a bad price for bottle beer. I didn't try any food this time, but the food looked good that was coming out of the kitchen. If it is your 1st time here,you order drinks at the bar, and to order food at the kitchen. Credit cards accepted at the bar and I only saw people paying cash at the kitchen. Perhaps, you can ask the bartender to include food on your tab from the kitchen. The bathroom surprisingly had a keg for a urinal to use. That was creative right? The bathroom looked cleaned and didn't smell. I overall give this place 3 stars for having NFL Ticket, a place to drink for cheap, and sell food. Yelpers it's an okay place to try if you are close in the area and need to watch your game. I hope this helps and Happy Sunday. read more

JT's Tavern - Karaoke Near Me - San Diego, California

We tried to visit at 4 pm in the afternoon and there was no parking available. Had to go somewhere else that evening. Will try again at another time... read more

I absolutely love JT's! My sister threw my husband and I a wedding celebration party here before we got married and I was soooo turnt tf up that night! Lol. The bartenders were super cool and everyone was so sweet I felt like they were all my friends by the end of the night. My sis was able to reserve the outside patio and our party was able to order food as well. Their food is bomb too! It was such a chill and laid back atmosphere. They don't have a DJ but there's a touchscreen music player you can pay and pick songs to listen to. The most fun was the karaoke part that starts at 9pm. I would definitely recommend if you want to go somewhere cool and laid read more

Great food .. great food .. great people . Walked I. Here as a newbie.. came out a local!!! read more

Wow, what a terrible night! Me and 6 other industry people came in around 11pm for a night cap and were treated so poorly I'm actually still confused what went wrong. There was exactly ONE other person in the bar when we got there. Being a slow Monday night, I would have expected her to be happy to see a large group coming in! If it was busy, we would totally understand but that wasn't the case. Our Bartender was so angry and agitated with us, to the point that I had to ask what we did to upset her... She Sarcastically answered "OH NOTHING! Everything is great! Can't you tell!!" It only got worse from there. I'm super sad about this endeavor since I live nearby and always have great service from Foster. But this lady was so angry and agitated! She yelled at us about our form of payment (we all had matching Darden cards), when we inquired about incorrect charges on our checks, she yelled at us and told us "there was so much I didn't charge you for!"... we received nothing for free... And as she was getting angry, the kind security guard stepped in and told us to stop arguing with her. We explained our complaints and he then walked over to her to reason with her and her response was " THEY'RE 86'D!" My friends think she was on drugs because her reactions were so unreasonable and erratic. Super upsetting. I will make sure none of my industry people ever come here. read more

I swear I never get tired of coming here especially after a long day at work! I can always count on the cook to whip me up the most amazing home cooked meals ever. Me and my husband try to come as often as possible especially when I've had a rough day at work. Nothing better than when the cooks know you so well and how spicy you like your food!!! The bartenders are always a delight and my drinks are always on point! Hands down my favorite little joint to enjoy good food and drinks. read more

Went in on a few Sunday evenings. Jenny behind the bar was awesome! Taking care of everyone. Drinks were perfect food is great! 10 stars! read more

Ultimately the BEST place to go for AMAZING FOOD and a night of FUN! My boyfriend and I went there for the first time and the bartender helped us out by serving us a few of her recommended drinks. She knew exactly my taste in alcoholic beverages, and I will forever hold them in my bank of favorite drinks. Victor, the chef, was super accommodating and served us his most POPULAR meals on the menu. The fajita plate included all the fixings with the JUICIEST marinated chicken and carne asada fit for two. I wasn't hungry at all, but as soon as I took a bite, I couldn't stop eating! I felt like such a glutton, BUT THE FOOD WAS SO DAMN GOOD! Next I tried the jambalaya! OMG, there were TEARS IN MY EYES! I went straight to the chef, thanked him, and SHOOK HIS HAND! I even announced the OUTSTANDING JAMBALAYA while holding the mic for karoake night! Oh, last but not least, karoake night was PHENOMENAL! I sang my heart out and everyone there was super supportive! read more

Came here last night with some friends for the first time and wow this place was busy and the bartenders were fast and friendly, they really make you feel like you're family already! They had karaoke which was so much fun, and we had the nachos which were amazing. Will definitely recommend this place to everyone! Many more fun times to come at this hidden gem. read more

It's been a few years since I've been to JT's and I still walk away a fan. It's a dive bar located in Grantville so don't expect anything fancy, but do expect stiff, inexpensive drinks! Like I said, it's been a minute since I've been here, but I do remember them having some great wings and Sunday breakfast options, and a very fun place to catch a football game. Parking isn't an issue, and there is a nice back patio! read more

This is THE spot for a karoake night. They have a full bar and they have " bar " food served until 8 or 9 depending on the kitchen. Good place for a night outdoors seating. read more

JT's Tavern - Karaoke night - Karaoke Near Me - San Diego, California

TV's everywhere. I think they have all the sports packages because there is always live sports on. Karaoke seems to be every night and the crowd seems to be a great mix of regulars old and young. My friends and I really enjoy this place because it's an industry bar where other bartenders and servers hang out after work read more

Friggin' love this place! Good food - Great Service - totally kick ass staff who are always welcoming and on point with the spiciness of their cocktails! With a great whiskey selection ( they got the full Weller Collection ) and draft choices, kick ass kataoke hosts and multiple areas to either mingle or find solo space - this place is for sure a staple in the College/ Grantville Area. Thank you all for each and every experience! read more

Apparently this place has changed owners since last visit. Bar lady does not know how to pour Guinness! Restrooms clean but reminiscent of a shebeen in Africa! I usually enjoy this bar but today was not one of those days! Firstly my husband drinks Heineken 00 and they don't even keep Heineken and secondly the wifi that used to be so great was so slow that after waiting 4 mins I gave up and turned wifi off! The bar wasn't even busy. Maybe 15 people! They need to lift their game here! read more

JT's Tavern - a parking lot with a white car - Karaoke Near Me - San Diego, California

A couple of friends of mine had recommend this local tavern to us for a drink that is offered, and all means go straight to animals. When arriving at JT's Tavern with my wife the security there had ask for our ID's. Okay, no problem. I handed him my ID. I asked, "How's the volume of the music?" I wanted to bring my pug and he has sensitive hearing. Just asking that question to him I was disrespected, threatened, discriminated against, yelled at, and harassed. My friends and wife witnessed his actions. I wouldn't recommend going here at all. Definitely no a friendly environment and the customer service wasn't up to par. Video of his actions will be posted soon. If I could give 0 stars I would but the 1 would do. Please fire him. read more

Come here for a happy hour beer or cheap well drink any day or evening. The kitchen is independent and only takes Venmo and cash. Bar is credit or cash. They have all the games generally with lots of TVs. Sundays during FB is really packed with fans in jerseys. Only time I personally avoid. read more

I came in on Christmas Eve and Jenny was working. She was so sweet and funny. She talked to me about life and made my Christmas Eve a little less lonely. This is a great little bar with amazing staff. I will be back. read more

Most disgusting food I've ever had from a hole in a wall, the wings were broken the chicken on the sliders was raw the onion rings were black like the oil has been there for months read more

Not a bad place. Cheap place to eat. Cash only for food. The wings aren't the worst I've had but hey, it's a cheap place to eat in San Diego for cheap. We had a big tab because we ordered a lot of food but our check was wrong. The person used pen and paper to write us our tab but it was off by $30. We got the check fixed then we left. Cheap drinks as well. It's a cool place to go just to get lit for cheap and eat for cheap lol. read more

JT's Tavern - Beto! - Karaoke Near Me - San Diego, California

I'm an all in Divey kind of girl, but this place made me break out the hand sanitizer. Neighbors of mine recommended this friendly, karaoke bar but when I entered it went silent. Foe, not friend- I sheepishly ordered my Racer 5 & skulked out to the patio... Not only did I worry that I was locked into a scene from the yard in OITNB, but my beer smelled like mildew. No fly zone- Low brow, over & out read more

This place was so unexpectedly fun! I went here for girls night AND we had a blast. Some times karaoke bars are awful but not here. The staff jumped in the late ole and had the crowd cheering! D was especially fun behind the bar and kept us entertained and laughing! It was such a great night and I just want to thank everyone there for helping us to have a much needed fun night out! Security was great too and jumped in on a song as well. Though it's a dive bar in an industry area, we felt very safe. read more

JT's Tavern - Karaoke Near Me - San Diego, California

I went here one night with three of my girlfriends, there weren't very many people but that's what makes it a lot of fun. The bartenders are really friendly and know how to make strong drinks. We shot some pool and for four girls we looked like straight out pros, there was some karaoke going on that night and I wish I wasn't too chicken to join. The girls and I decided to sing from where we were! Overall a fun place to bring a group of friends, it's not very big but it's perfect the way it is. read more
