For some reason, I thought the steak special was on Thursday, but nope--it's actually Tuesday. Still ordered the steak because, honestly, why not treat myself? It's $25 at regular price with no Old Fashioned (sad face), but holy cow was it deeeeeelicious! Get the peppercorn sauce. TRUST ME. That sauce deserves its own Instagram account. Seriously, bottle that stuff and call me--I'll buy it by the gallon. Omgeeeee yummmm. My friend's plate? Yeah... a whole different story. The birria was so dry, and no consomé on the side? Rude. Definitely wouldn't recommend or order it again. Also, shoutout to the lone ranger working the restaurant/bar. This guy was taking orders, mixing drinks. When he forgot our drink refills, I was like, "Dude, you've got enough on your plate." Poor guy was straight-up doing the most. Someone give him a raise. Parking was good for a weekday and ambiance was really chill. I'd definitely come again. Come check them out! You can thank me laters! read more

I ordered the Quinoa Salad with Birria and balanced the sorta healthy salad with a side of onion rings. Both were Delicious. A friend at the table ordered the Zombie Cocktail from Sin Ship Spirits. It was 19.5% ABV but tasted delicious. Dangerous!!! Glad I wasn't drinking lunch that day... I would not have survived. Service was excellent and our food came out super fast. The indoor/outdoor layout made the place feel airy. There were tons of different seating options from bar seats, to booths, counters to stand at. Street parking wasn't too bad either. In addition to the great alcohol drinks, they had a self serve soda machine and a few other nonalcoholic options. read more

First time to Liberty Call Distilling (LCD), and the sad part is we've patronized Maggie's next door for years never once thinking to come here. Our loss, as LCD is great! They were busy during a lunch on Friday especially their outdoor patio. Vibe is great here, staff while a little short staffed were amazing, and their food & drinks were outstanding! We shared their chicken wings and burger (added a fried egg to the burger) and chose regular fries from their side options. We both tried their whisky flight, and they were able to apply the $8 lunch entree price for any of their signature drinks towards one of our whisky flights. We spoke to Bill, one of the owners and he said their top two menu items are their burger, followed by their steak sandwich. I guess we'll have to try the steak sandwich at our next visit. I want to give special kudos to Bill and LCD. Not only are all their drinks, food, and service worth praising, LCD is very supportive and a huge fan of our first responders, public safety personnel, as well our military. I personally know they've been a part of numerous fundraisers for law enforcement, and have made donations to law enforcement for fallen officers, and have collaborated often with the First Responders Whisky Society. If you're anywhere near the downtown, Barrio Logan, or Gaslamp area, do yourself a favor and give LCD a chance! You'll be very glad you did... You're welcome in advance. read more

I recently returned to Liberty Call and it's still as great as ever. Tuesday night is the best night to go in my opinion because it's Steak night ($25 for a NY strip, side and old fashioned (or wine or beer)). They also have other entrees such as lobster ravioli for $20 which also come with a drink. Service was great! I always recommend Liberty Call to anyone looking for reasonably priced date night spots. read more

We came here before my company partying December to try some of their menu items. I got a mocktail and he got a cocktail to start with. We shared some wings, garlic fries, a burger,a torta, and a steak sandwich. The drinks were nice and refreshing! The wings were pretty and flavorful. We tried both the buffalo and Thai cashew. Everything else was really good too! The side items we chose were the tots, Mac n cheese, and onion rings. Service was friendly and attentive. I loved all of the items I tried. Prices were very reasonable as well. read more

I dined in last night for their Tuesday night $20 steak special. Mannn let me tell you! WORTH IT! I made reservations and they were booked out 2 weeks in advance. I read that they can get packed especially during steak night so I didn't want to risk waiting awhile for a table. It looks like it can get pretty packed and the atmosphere here (like others said) is more of a drinking/bar/eating place. There's tvs around and its inside a garage warehouse building so it can get cold. The service was as good as it can get with it being packed and only 2-4 servers. We had to ask them a couple times for things but very understandable since it was super busy and not enough of them. They were all very nice but just busy. So the Tuesday $20 steak includes a 12 oz New York strip steak, a side, and an alcoholic beverage! You can't beat that anywhere! There are other entrees for $20 that includes a side and an alcoholic drink as well if you don't want steak. But that's the star of the night! They have happy hour and other specials during the week too. On Tuesdays, happy hour ends at 5pm which is when the steak night starts until 8pm. Make reservations! My family all ordered the steaks which were all cooked perfectly to our desired preference. We got both sauces; peppercorn and veal which were both good and complimented the steaks. We all got different sides of fries, mashed potatoes, and mac and cheese that were all surprisingly just as good! We also ordered the tri tip nachos and wings. The wings were tasty my son enjoyed them. The nachos were good as well; not salty or bland. It did lack some heat so I had to ask for hot sauce in which they brought out a bottled hot sauce and their verde sauce which made it much better. Their old fashioned is strong! If you want a good buzz. I also had the Protector Juicy IPA which was delicious and strong. read more

Wasnt very busy on a weekday. When the food came out I was very impressed. The birra nachos were great and the tortilla soup was even better.

I was between a 2 and a 3 star rating for this place, but I ultimately decided to go with a 2 because the service and what I ordered fell short. We went on a Tuesday during HH, but it wasn't busy yet. The guy who initially took our order was really nice and made us feel welcome, however, I have no idea if he was just subbing for our table or what because he never came back. What we got: - HH wings (bbq): the serving portion was really generous, however the wings were a little tough and dry. - Fries: crispy, but wayyyy too salty. - Burger: This was solid! Service: No one checked up on us during our meal. When we were ready to settle the bill. I made eye contact with a girl who seemed to have taken over the guy's role as server. We made eye contact and I raised my hand up to get her attention. She sees it and instead walks over to a table and clears it off. Mind you, this table was sitting there with everything on it for a while and the restaurant was not busy. After she cleans up some of the plates, we make continued eye contact again, but I didn't wave her down because I figured she was busy cleaning, she finishes cleaning the last cup and so I wave her down again. She goes to a table in front of me and takes their appetizer plate away (they didn't wave her down and their main dishes weren't en route either, she was just keeping busy, I guess). Goes back to that table and takes a napkin away. We make eye contact again and I'm just like does she not see me? Because, again, she ignores our continued eye contact until the person I was dinning with got her attention. Overall, the price and portion size of the place is good. I wonder if I came in on an off day for the food, but I don't know. Maybe it was an off day for the server too, but because of the meh food and lack of service, 2 stars. read more

Fantastic value for Tuesday night steak night. However, comes at the cost of inferior service. Sat at our table, after 15 minutes, had to ask the hostess who was our server. Saw a server behind the bar doing shots and they were on the clock. Good way to run a business. read more

Liberty Call Distilling - Happy hour menu - Distilleries Near Me - San Diego, California

Finally made it! Located in a little food row across from Northgate lies Liberty Call Distillery. It looked like parking could be a challenge, but luckily for me, I ubered. I've yet to make it for their $20 steak night, but since I was planning on going to a jazz show in the area, I figured it'd be a great opportunity to give Liberty Call a try, and I'm glad I did. Upon walking in, I was greeted and told to sit anywhere I'd like. I always love sitting at the bar, especially at brewpubs, as you typically get more attentive service, and people are often more social and chatty there. I come for the food and drinks, but I greatly enjoy meeting new people, and I'm always up for some good banter. The first thing I noticed was that the bar seats are much too low for the bar; it would make a bit of a challenge for shorter people or those with small torsos. I can only imagine that they don't want to invest in new bar stools, because it's obvious these aren't the ones. There's only a few larger tables, so if you're in a big group, you may end up having to push several tables together, which seemed like a regular occurrence here. I opted for the Cherry Smash, which was still $9 on happy hour, as I'm a big fan of cherries. The drink was just okay, and although I ordered 2 more after that, I'd probably opt for something else next time as there wasn't much cherry flavor to the smash. My boy got a draft cocktail, I believe $7 on HH, that was 19% abv and delicious. I'd probably get that next time. I ordered the famous cashew wings, $8 on HH, and the burger, also $8 on HH. I asked for the wings to be extra crispy and that they were; they had a nice little sweet tang, and were very delicious. The burger was a double with cheese, and it also had a beautiful onion ring on top. The burger wasn't anything to write home about, but it wasn't bad by any means. It had a nicely toasted garlic buttered bun, and was served with bbq sauce on the side. I wish they had asked how I prefer my burger to be cooked, as the burger was served well done. Definitely going to make it back! Thanks LCD!!! read more

Myself and my two friends were excited about trying this place because the reviews were great but let me tell you, we were beyond disappointed. Where do I even start? 1. The service was horrible. A girl helped us, but she was not attentive at all. During the entire time we were there (like 3 hours of eating and talking) not once did she come check in (or anyone) to ask if we wanted refills. She was at the bar talking to these 2 guys the entire time. When we told her about issues with our food (keep reading), she didn't care. She was very nonchalant. My friends ordered Diet Coke. Well we found out they didn't even have Diet Coke so we don't even know what she gave them. 2. The food. My friend ordered the cob salad which she was so excited about. When it got there a lot of the ingredients listed on the key were no where to be seen. It didn't have the bacon and it didn't have the egg!!! She told one of the employees. They came out with bacon that was NOT fully cooked. They said that they ran out of hard boiled eggs and were working on them. They came out with the eggs which were still pretty hot and more bacon (this time it was cooked). Needless to say, she was disappointed. She also ordered a side of fries. Those came out so late. They arrived at the table after we were all done eating. We had high expectations for this place given the reviews but were so disappointed. read more

This is a poppin place, especially on Tuesday steak night, so I recommend you get a reservation. Steak night means entrees are served with a drink: an old fashioned, a beer, or a glass of wine. $20 for a steak, side, and an old fashioned?! what a steal - especially in this market. Service is quick so you won't need to wait long for that hot dinner and a cold drink! Grab a friend or two and head down to Barrio Logan! read more

Hooked me in with their $20 Tuesday Steak Night offer but the steaks and service left me unsatisfied. Parking wasn't too difficult but the place got crowded at 5PM for steak night. My party was seated immediately. However, smaller groups around me were asked post seating to relocate elsewhere due to larger parties coming in. Definitely should tighten up on the seating arrangement. Our server barely attended my table and water was self served. The $20 steak meal consisted of an alcoholic beverage, NY strip, sauce and choice of side. After we placed our order, the food took 20 minutes to come out. =ORDERED= *Old Fashioned: my choice over a glass or wine or beer. Was quickly and strongly made. Fiery start. *Thai Cashew Wings: an excellent appetizer. Not spicy but rather a milder version of a mango habernero sauce. Chicken was moist and tender. Loved that it came with a ranch trough. *12 oz NY Strip: the steaks came with either a veal demi glace or bourbon peppercorn sauce. The steak itself was cooked nicely to medium rare. I chose fries as my side and they arrived limp. Both items were on the saltier side. *8 oz Filet Mignon: the alternative cut to the NY strip and was $25 instead of $20. This was inedible as it was incredibly rare to the point of mooing. The mashed potatoes were over salted and the salty demi glacé was unbearable. Very disappointed in this plate. Overall I would stick to the NY Strip and avoid the demi glacé. While the deal was enticing, the service and execution made the meal disappointing. The wings and drinks were worthwhile so I wouldn't mind a buzzed hangout here in the future. read more

Was checking out different spots in Barrio Logan and I almost regret saving this place for the end of my stroll because I was pretty full from coffee and food at other places...otherwise, I would've loved to have ordered food off the menu here. Ordered the whiskey flight and appreciated the service and explanation of the different pours. Not one mix, I definitely want to return to try their other spirits and cocktails. This place is conveniently located in a plaza with more than enough parking spaces. read more

I've always liked this place. This has always been my go to place since I live right round the corner and have always enjoyed taking friends here and have even started to know the employees here by name. The last two times I've been here the employee that works lunch shift with the tattoos and facial piercings has been here. She has always been very short, never a hello or anything, just give a menu and that's it. Today, I decide to take a business meeting there l. My business partner had a company truck with lots of expensive tools and machinery and we wanted to get a better look while we sat outside. The tables were very close to another party that was already there so we moved it a bit and she immediately told us to sit somewhere else (granted I did not see the other table that was available) and sparked "do you want to move that table back now". She immediately started to be extremely rude. She went off about how I said "a menu", as if she was insulted by my tone of voice or something and then berated me in front of my business partner saying I was misogynistic for no apparent reason and saying that next time she just won't serve us. I honestly have no clue to what she was referring to. She brings us our beer and spills it on the table and never comes back to wipe it down or even apologizes. Needless to say, I won't be going back here and won't be taking any friends or meetings here. No idea why she is always upset or why she would choose to work in the service industry if she is so upset all the time. read more

When on vacation, we do happy hour! Came here right at 3pm on a weekday. $3 off craft cocktails. Opted for the miguelizzy because it had vodka. Pleasantly surprised! $2 off draft cocktails, so i tried their sinship zombie. Even though it is listed at 19.5%, it's pretty sweet! Very dangerous though. We were getting quite tipsy from all this booze, so we ordered a bunch of wings. It was perfect since Mondays are BOGO wing night! Wings were juicy and were definitely necessary. Plenty of parking in the parking structure around the corner. Wasn't too crowded the entire time we were here either. read more

Food : good for $20 steak night Service : friendly Ambiance: open garage like bar Came out to try the Tuesday Night steak night. The offer is $20 NY strip one side (choices of fries, mashed potatoes, Mac and cheese, or seasonal veggies)and a cocktail (choice of old fashioned, beer, or wine). We opted for the sangria. I got the steak with mashed potatoes pepper corn sauce. I asked for medium it was more medium well, the sauce was watery but the overall not bad for $20. My friend got the same but with Mac & cheese. The Mac and cheese was like noodles and butter no cheese. Another friend got the lobster ravioli came with a side of garlic toast. For dessert we had the lava cake. It was good but the lava was still hard no lava. The drinks were strong, different but good. They had TVs all around to watch the game. read more

I've been coming here 1-3 times a week for the past two months while my daughter attends physical therapy nearby. I usually sit in the corner and get some work done, and I've really tried to make this my go-to spot. The vibe is usually great, and the guy behind the bar is always helpful and friendly...he always remembers my beer and he's honestly the only reason I keep coming back. Unfortunately, the service from one staff member has made the experience uncomfortable. The woman with the tattoos and face piercings repeatedly ignores me, even when she's serving tables right next to mine. At this point, it feels intentional, and it's disheartening to be treated like I'm invisible. I want to keep supporting this place, but the lack of basic courtesy is starting to outweigh the positives. I may have to find another spot. read more

We came on a Sunday and got seated right away. The restaurant had a few guests not busy at all. Got here in time for the happy hour which started at 3pm - 6pm. We ended up ordering the Thai chicken wings and the barbacoa poutine. As for libation, we ordered the Mexican Riviera (blanco tequila, gran marnier, chartreuse jalapeño syrup and lime. My husband ordered the preston's mule (mark xiv vodka, lime, preston's ginger beer). Our faves was the Thai chicken bbq and our drinks. We recommend! Good service from Quintin. read more

Came here for dinner as we saw a TikTok and it was good for a distillery. There was only one kind man serving the bar and tables so service was a tad slow but understandable considering the circumstances. Burger was delicious but Fries were a little mid. Not very much carne asada in the barrio bowl but good otherwise (avocado big plus!) lobster ravioli was good. Also ordered an old fashion and it was also mid. Overall a 6.5/10 but definitely wouldn't expect the food to be out of this world since alcohol is their strength! Lots of free 2 hour parking out front which always a big plus! read more

So our first time here and it did not disappoint! We went for the Tuesday Steak Night! It was recommended by our Neighbor that we went with. Great deal. $25 for a steak filet, side and your choice of an Old Fashioned, Wine or Beer. They make their own Spirits, and oh yeah Bourbon! In Barrio Logan, fun new up and coming area of SD. Check it out! read more

Our first time here was an invite by our friends. We were a bit skeptical if we would like it or not from the beginning consider we had never heard of it and it's located on the side of the main attraction street in Barrio Logan. But the atmosphere was nice and the music was catchy. The service was great! We ordered and had our appetizers were out within 15 min. What we liked: Fast service A variety of alcohol choices Affordable pricing Plenty of store front parking What we didn't like: Food was not great ( Tried the wings, parm fries and cheese with queso) nothing was good. Only one server and one bartender Aesthetically, it isn't a spot I'd want to take pictures in. Drinks were ok. read more

Outside of fútbol games (soccer) I'm not sure if I've ever seen more than 5 people in there at a time. Which makes drink service fast and easy. It's a chill spot that is much better when it's sunny then when it's cold especially since it has a garage door opening. As for food.. I really only had the sliders from here. It's quite tasty actually. The bbq sauce on the side didn't match the sliders though. Felt very bland and took away from the sliders rather than adding any depth to it. The tvs are well placed to be able to sit and pretend to listen to friends as you really eye the score of the game. The bartender was fine. Been here a few times and it's always the same guy. Everytime I go, he doesn't have a lot of customers and so he's quick in serving the drinks. Overall I really only go for happy hour and typically only bring any friends or family whose visiting from out of town in order to get a drink and some food in their stomach as soon as they get off the plane because of the cheapish prices. I wouldn't bring any locals here unless it's a long wait for the trolley / taxi before a padres game. Plus one point for the kitchen staff asking if it's okay to give my dog a piece of bacon and for asking if it's okay to pet him. He doesn't like being approached. read more

So this was recommended to us, and I will have to say I'm glad we listened to them. We went on their steak Tuesday night where you get a ribeye with 2 diff sauces to pick from to put on top, a side dish (I added the garlic parmesan to my fries) and an old fashioned or house wine all for $25! My family all enjoyed the cut of meat, we just wish it had more flavor to it, even the side dishes were a little bland (nothing salt and pepper couldn't fix). The old fashioned tasted great, and the house pinot was okay but not the greatest. We also ordered the chips with cheese and salsa. It wasn't something that stood out but we enjoyed it. We did like the place overall but in the corner, it was super loud and hard to hear each other. Honestly, this would def be worth it to come here on a Tuesday night! read more

Found this place from some Tik tok reviewers and it did not disappoint! Their prices are reasonable and the cooks allowed me to order from the dinner menu even though it was only lunch. They only had 1 server for the whole place, but she was on point and got everyone what they needed in a timely manner. This place is right by Chicano Park so coming from LA, the ambiance reminds me a bit of Echo Park or Silverlake but definitely a hidden gem, with a bomb steak and great drinks.

I came here for the $ 20 steak night on Tuesday. You get a steak, mash potatoes and a alcoholic beverage for $20! Where else are you going to find that ? I highly recommend . I ordered a chicken Cesar salad as well, everything tasted delicious. Coronado island is minutes away if you want to splurge on dessert or if you want to check out some cool Art, head across to the park. The restaurant has a nice laid back vibe to it and interesting decor/theme . Not everything on the menu is available on Tuesday's, I might come back and see what their birria poutine is about. The staff seemed pretty outgoing and attentive I just had really bad luck with my waitress. Either way, I recommend giving their $20 Tuesday nights a try. read more
