Okay so I wanted to leave a bad review because for the past week I came around 10 pm and the some…read moreworkers didn't look professional or they had a bit of an attitude. But I came in tonight April 1st at 9 pm. The gentleman that took my order looked very professional and he was very kind and attentive. Everyone else in the back also was dressed professionally. The other times that I came I had to ask for my fries to be remade because they weren't fresh, and I asked for salt because they didn't have salt on them, the chicken nuggets were also not that crispy. But tonight when I came my fries were fresh and had salt, the chicken nuggets were crispy ! And the coffee is strong so that lets me know they used a good amount to make. I used to work for McDonald's and these small details I know about since I've been in the kitchen before. My visit tonight went great.

Went today for an Ice Coffee and waited over 15 mins with no service from any staff. As I was…read morewaiting patiently in my vehicle for my single Ice Coffee, I observed many more customers receiving full order that numbered several bags. Very unsatisfied with service at this location. McDonald's if you truly are reading this, I don't want an automated response. You can reach out to me on here rather than spend more of my time reaching out to you. If you really care to looking to matters.

Tacos El Gordo continues to be one of my favorite taco places of all time. I found out that…read moreMexico City was the place that originated al pastor tacos as they were inspired by Lebanese immigrants who brought Shawarma to Mexico; however, I appreciate that it worked its way to Tijuana and SD through Gordo. Gordo's adobada can compare favorably to al pastor anywhere; however, my experience at this "Gordo" location in Gaslamp has been inconsistent compared to Chula Vista and Vegas locations, due to their higher volume. The smaller space also has less seating, which is a bummer if you are coming here on a busy comic con day. The adobada here, though, is the taco to get. Consider yourself lucky if you get a nice portion of crispy and burnt bits as they offer nice textural bites. Their sauces/salsas are also equally good, and it sets it above and beyond another taquero from Tijuana, Tacos El Franc. Don't shy away from their asada tacos either, as the meat has a nice kiss of charcoal and it's topped with a generous portion of guac. I don't love that prices have gone up to almost $5/taco; however, I'll gladly pay it if they can give me my favorite taco.

The wait outside wasn't bad but the trouble starts once you actually get in the place. Ordering…read morefrom this place is an absolute mess. There were other customers helping me and directing me to the right lines. MULTIPLE LINES. There is barely any organization to the system of ordering and receiving food - and don't even get me started on the chaos of it all. The store employees were just as disgruntled and stressed as I was. I had ordered an adobada taco since that was the very first line. I gave up trying to get my lengua taco because I had no idea that I was supposed to receive it first before I received my fries (after paying). If my review is confusing, it's because it really was confusing during my visit here. But that's not all. There were upstairs seating available, but NO AIR WAS AVAILABLE. It was unbearable to sit in that heat and eat comfortably in that kind of environment. I felt so nauseous during and after my visit at this location. I don't even remember how my one taco tasted.. Even later, when I threw it up later that night.. Will not go back to this location, but am willing to check out other locations.

This joint is eclectic and right next to Ocean Beach. Like the surrounding areas, it's quite a…read moreunique looking place. Represents people from everywhere with its many license plates! Food wasn't anything crazy, like the decor. Was crazy good though, if you really want to add crazy to that part of the review. The burger was cooked to perfection and full of fresh ingredients that made my tastebuds happy! The onion rings were also cooked to a nice crispy, golden brown. Don't need to order the big burger unless sharing with someone else or if you are super hungry. The small portion filled me full. Definitely recommend if in the area.!

Its San Diego time again!…read more I have been to the original Hodad's in Ocean Beach, so during a staycay in the San Diego Gaslamp, I said I gotta hit up this location on Broadway. The portions are big and the quality of the food is very good. The breading and seasoning on the chicken was tasty AF. Secondarily, the burgers are 1/4 lb and a single is plenty for a normal person. Lastly, the rings were thicc and GBD. Unfortunately, we sat in traffic for 3 hrs from OC, when it normally takes 1 1/2 hrs: We were really hungry, and Hodads met our needs. Regarding the ambiance, its a bit grunge but np for me. The name has a whole lot of nostalgia in SD. The service was friendly & warm. Our food came out quickly. The only downside was the chicken & rings needed some kinda sauce, but otherwise everything else was great. Would def return the next time I am in the area.

The patty was real thin and the bacon was really thin. The onion rings were good actually. They didn't bring ketsup or napkins with the food. Okay food, a bit pricey in my opinion.

I was on jury duty today and I wanted to have some Shawarma so I looked up on yelp and found the…read moreK-pop shop was about a 20 minute walk away. The menu was a bit confusing, but I know that I like grilled veggies and Greek salad and then Ike was able to pick my protein that I wanted so that seemed easy enough. The base price with falafel or chicken Shawarma was Close to $16 but since I chose the meat, they added two dollars to my total. It took about 10 minutes for them to assemble my meal, but my veggies were cooked fresh on the stove, which was really nice. They tasted very freshly cooked just as they would as if I had cooked them myself at home. I was there about 1245 on a Monday and there were a few people there and they had some takeout orders so my order took about 10 minutes before I could walk out the door with it. They had a nice condiment bar where you could pick out some yogurt with dill sauce and then they're famous garlic yogurt sauce, as well as a jalapeño sauce And another spicy hot one that I would never try. When I got back to the jury room to eat my meal, I saw that there was a nice quantity of the fresh salad and the grilled vegetables but the meat was piled high! The employees were working efficiently and the place was spotless and orderly.

What a great surprise! This place looks like a neighborhood market and convenience store from the…read moreoutside, but it's so much more. They have an impressive deli with made-to-order sandwiches, fresh salads, pizza, and plenty of grab-and-go options. The sandwiches were excellent and definitely the highlight of our visit. Everything tasted fresh, and it was the perfect spot to grab a quick bite before heading out to enjoy San Diego. It's clearly not much of a secret anymore with all the great reviews, and after visiting, I can see why. If you're looking for a delicious sandwich, a quick lunch, or food to take on a picnic while enjoying San Diego's beautiful weather, this is a fantastic choice. We'll definitely stop by again the next time we're in town.

I usually will order the "Little Pecker Combo" or the "Jidori Tender Combo." The service is great and the staff is very friendly. I don't know much about the other menu options. I'd say it's good for the chicken and fries, but I got the "Power Bowl" once to try something different and it was alright. Bonus points for being open late!

Got the family flock and a salad which had a really great Pablo avocado dressing. The fried chicken was so moist and Crispy. I don't normally like cole slaw but liked the flavor of it. The biscuits were served with a flavored butter as well which was delicious. The chicken tenders had a thin batter and were ok. Fries were great but a little salty. Loved the salted chocolate chip cookie as well. Overall great experience.
