Stopped by Liberty Wing Co. for takeout during dinner, and it wasn't busy at all. Service was…read moresmooth -- staff was friendly, the order was accurate, and the wait time was minimal. No complaints on that front. I ordered the 6-piece garlic wings (non-breaded). The wings came out freshly cooked and warm, with a decent crisp for being unbreaded. Portion size was solid. The garlic flavor was there, but overall the taste didn't really impress. They leaned overly salty for my preference, which took away from what could've been a stronger execution. Atmosphere is pretty much what you'd expect from the rest of the food hall -- standard, nothing particularly memorable. Price-to-portion felt slightly on the higher side, especially considering the flavor didn't quite deliver. Not a bad experience, but not one that makes me eager to return immediately. I might try a different flavor down the line, but for now, it's a pass.

Lots of seating and they have their own little parking lot (gets filled quick). Definitely will be back again!

Honestly, this place surprised me…read more First parking will be a disaster. It's in the heart of OB beach/downtown area. We got lucky enough that we got a spot right in the front. But most likely you will have to park more than a few blocks away from this area. We went to their happy hour. In this economy, we can't be picky. They are very dog friendly so they were a lot of calm trained dogs. We have tried their brisket bbq taco, french fries and I also had their spicy margarita. Brisket bbq taco: the meat was tender, I really loved the combination of spicy salsa with cold corn and warm cheese. I don't know why but it was so good! Fries were also great, you can't go wrong with some fries with cheese. And I think the lady who was working as a bartender did a good job a making spicy margarita. She did say she just started to bartend so I was decently impressed. Little bit water down but now I'm just being a little picky. Overall, this place was surprisingly good and if I'm around town again, I would probably come back.

Overall, this is a nice BBQ spot to check out. Food was enjoyable and portions were satisfying. I would come back and try more

My partner and I shared the full rack of ribs with sauce- and trust me it's enough for 2 hungry people with the 2 sides! The ribs were juicy, tender, soft, melt in your mouth almost kind of vibe. Now, I'm not a coleslaw gal, but I ate this coleslaw as if it was my favorite salad. I ate the coleslaw more than the macaroni salad! (which is a first) lol. Okay the Colossal onion rings and the cornbread with the butter.. bless your soul for it has woken from all the souls of food. HAHA! Service was quick and the lady server was kind enough to take pictures of our group table! There's a reason why I gave this place a 5/5- I could have given it a high 6/5 but you get it.

I didn't know how I'd feel about this taco before getting it but damn, it's good. The birria is so flavorful and dripping with juices that combine with the Mac and cheese beautifully, all inside a cheese crusted tortilla, a beautiful marriage of flavors and textures you just have to try.

Reminded her of…read morelots of foods she enjoyed and us as people who don't often eat Brazilian food, we had a great time too. It's mini mart attached to the main restaurant. We came on a Sunday mid morning and since we had lunch plans later, we only snacked on a bit of the food. Service was super welcoming and inviting. It was like visiting a family member's or friend's home. Lady was super nice. Ambiance is very casual and you can tell that this is a community favorite too. Food came out quickly and was fresh. We got the: 1) Coxinha: -This is a popular Brazilian street food which is a deep fried croquette with chicken and cream cheese. -Delicious, light breading and the potato part is fluffy and the chicken is moist and all of the filling is plentiful and seasoned to perfection. We also got to try this with their home made chili sauce, nice delicious heat. Good stuff. 2) Pao de Queijo: -A MUST for my friend and I whenever I see them available. -Super yummy Brazilian cheese bread. I love the delicately light crisp from the exterior, slightly chewy dough, and of course the cheese inside. -Addicting and delicious snack. I can easily munch down several of these and the quality is good here too, especially since it's made fresh! We also got the bottled juices, imported in from Brazil. Mango and guava were like nectar juices, super yummy and the pistachio one was pretty unique. Our table also ordered the Brazilian lime alcoholic drink, but as a non drinker, I can't comment on this. Definitely would like to come back here again the next time we're in SD.

So many choices, so little room in my belly. This last time through, after being retrieved from the terminal by my fiancée, BOPJO Korean Mexican Grill was the choice. It's in the corner of the Mess Hall across from Bottlecraft. Bites & beers? Yes, please. Service was friendly & informative. Since this was my 1st time trying this place, I went with 1 of their more popular dishes: Kimchi Fried Rice Spam Bowl, w/ a fried egg on top. It took a little while even though it wasn't busy.

I ordered a tuna poke bowl and while it was delicious, it was missing something crunchy like fried onions or fresh jalapeños.

I think the best dish was the Gangnam loaded fries. We're from out of town and this place reminds us a little bit like Philly's Reading Terminal but less crowded and chaotic. It's definitely slower paced than the Reading Terminal.
