    I had gotten an email wishing me a happy birthday and to come in for a FREE ENTREE. I was like,…read morewhat!? Yeah a lot of places give a free dessert but you almost never see a free dinner. I instantly set a reservation (didn't really need it) and we arrived around 4pm on a Tuesday and sat on the patio. Happy hour is daily from 4-6pm and if you sit on the recently renovated patio, drinks are 50% off. I ordered the Ribeye as my birthday entree and we also ordered the Fried Zucchini ($7), Popcorn Chicken ($9), Guajillo Braised Pork Shoulder ($21) and several cocktails ($7 each during HH). Everything was great honestly. No complaints. My wife REALLY loved the braised pork shoulder. My steak was excellent and even though it was free, $32 for a ribeye is the lowest you'll find anywhere. It was nice having not having to fight for a seat. Enjoying a cocktail on the patio in perfect weather is something everyone should try. Highly recommend coming to Mission Ave Bar & Grill for happy hour and to check out the new patio. Make sure to register for their mailing list to get birthday offers too!

    Mission Ave Bar and Grill is basically the type of place that says, "just one drink," and suddenly…read moreit's three hours later, you've made new friends, and you're emotionally attached to the Peanut butter stuffed french toast. From the juicy breakfast Burger to the dangerously good country benefit and spicy blood orange, everything feels a little too easy to fall in love with. The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff make it feel like your favorite neighborhood hangout -- even if it's your first time there. Honestly, if good food, great cocktails, and happy vibes had a love language... this place would be fluent. What I got: Peanut butter stuffed french toast $16 Country Benedict $17 Breakfast burger $18 Arnold Palmer Spicy blood orange $10

    Fun spot in Oceanside with a great vibe and lots of weekday specials. I had the miso chicken wings…read more.. tasty but light on sauce. They do charge for extra, which I get, but I wished for a little more to start. Their homemade ranch made up for it though! The happy hour pretzel ($10) was perfect for sharing, and my friend's grilled fish tacos were fresh and light. The coconut shrimp looked amazing, so I'll try that next time. Can't wait to come back for the $20 lobster roll weekends ..and once I'm not pregnant, to sample that awesome beer list!

    This place is awesome! Ryan was absolutely phenomenal and helped us find the NA beer options. Ryan…read moresaid usually they only have 4 but recently they've been carrying 6 options. We tried 4 today and absolutely loved them. If you're looking to go out with friends but don't drink alcohol, this place has got you covered with great NA options! The ambiance is so nice. It's very comfortable inside and currently they have cute Halloween window paintings! Ryan also did a great job suggesting the best options for us too! Beyond the great options here we also received such great service. Thank you so much, Ryan! If we lived in Oceanside this would definitely be our go to spot. Hopefully we can visit again soon!

    After climbing at VITAL across the street, I walked around Oside a bit but then I saw this place…read moreand it had arcades so I was intrigued and wanted to know if they had Ms Pac Man... I checked the photos on Google to see if anyone may have posted a Ms Pac Man machine and I got lucky! Someone posted a photo of a Ms Pac Man machine!! Now, I was on a mission to play my favorite game! I waltzed in and there are picnic style benches up front and an air hockey game up front (I think). I then made my way to the back and took a look around at all the games, some pinball machines, a basketball machine and then I found my beloved Ms Pac Man machine, which was a 20 year reunion model, shared with Galaga. Once I saw that, I went over to the bar and ordered a draft beer so I could drink it while I played Ms Pac Man. They have a good selection of draft beers and I opted for the Mango Wheat. Beer was good and $7. I then went over to the Ms Pac Man machine and played a few rounds. Its now 50 cents for a game but it still takes quarters. I had a good time and love when I can find Ms Pac Man!! Overall, a good experience here and I had fun! Id come back here again when in Oside!

    Stopped in tonight after a long day athe office. I have great things about Fat Joe's all of which…read moreare true! I sat at the bar and had 3 tacos: potato, cheeseburger and fish. I know, a cheeseburger taco! All three were amazing as are there sauces. I recommend them all, but favorite was the fish taco. They have a full bar and large selection of draft beers. Service is excellent and the food came out quickly. Definitely a new spot for me any night of the week.
