I got the smash & grab and the garlic parm fries. I loveeed the garlic parm fries the most. The smash burger was okay but I have had better ones. I didnt go to the location so Im unsure how it looks but the food is pretty good and not too expensive. My friend sent me this picture of the bar which looked pretty cool! read more

We stopped here to peak around and my tummy wouldn't let us love. That and the fact that their only decor was a poster of Anthony Bourdain. The name is literal, this is just a shed with picnic tables around and in the parking lot of a bar (Sidecar). I ordered a single smash and grab with fries as well as ranch and roasted poblano ranch. Those fries were so fresh, so clean, they're what in n out fries wishes they could be. Seasoned and cooked so well, I couldve eaten a box of those alone. The burger was also amazing, so well seasoned and actually smashed!!! Juicy and all the fixings were actually good too, no unripe tomatoes here. The ranch was also amazing, definitely recommend getting it with the fries!! Honestly I very much appreciate this place for exactly what it is. Next time I need a smash burger, I'm coming here. read more

overall pretty good id give it 4.5 stars - would def try the burger next time though! ordered online for pick up at 8:10pm on a sunday and we were just waiting on the fries. they got it out to me at 8:14. service was polite but not super happy or fake which i like HAHA there was one person finishing up eating when i arrived and then one who just ordered when i left. lots of space to sit outside at this time the tri tip bowl was pretty fire i liked the flavors and i felt good after eating it. tri tip, sweet potato, broccoli, and chimichurri - wish the portion was bigger but tbh it was good enough for me! although id say not enough for someone with a bigger appetite. the meat wasnt chewy and was cooked well. i should have reheated it but it was still good! brother said the island smash was on the sweeter side but overall very good, hes a big spam guy. i tried one of his fries and it definitely tasted like it was made in house so thats nice to know, just wish it was crunchier but that probably has something to do with me taking it to go read more

The Shed - tri tip Tri-Tip Protein Bowl - Burgers Near Me - San Diego, California

Tasty, healthy tri tip bowl was a nice accompaniment to our early Sunday booze break at Sidecar. Appreciate this alternative to the between two buns format, and the charred sweet potato plus broccoli paired very well with the meaty tri tip strips. The light chimichurri sauce tied it all together. Super convenient ordering format at the shed with a buzzer so you can return ito nursing your poison of choice at Sidecar for the next 10 min or so until food is ready. read more

The Shed - Tri tip bowl - Burgers Near Me - San Diego, California

Quick service at the food area, bar was a bit slow at the place next to it called Sidebar. Definitely dive bar vibes but also kinda pleasant with pinball machines and a pool table. You cant go wrong with a classic double smash, its literally the one thing they'll never take off the menu and I just love a smashburger with the patty crusted around the edges (yall know what I'm talkin bout). The "Just the Tip" tri tip burger is MASSIVE and needs to be deconstructed in order to eat - the flavor is there but it's also just very chewy. They recently came up with a Tri-Tip bowl which comes with broccoli, sweet potato and chimichurri sauce... GAS! AND ITS HEALTHY AF - it's been my latest obsession. Overall, it's a great spot to grab a quick bite or even pregame. The bartenders are super chill and remember a face and the service is quick. Just be mindful that the menu can change quite often. I'll try to post a more updated pic soon! read more

NO CHILDREN ALOUD??? OUTRAGEOUS!!! I saw another review that said children are aloud until 3 pm, I guess the place has turned into a full bar since then. They should label it as a bar if that is the case. read more

Great burgers and fabulous fries. Outdoor seating only, but the SideCar bar provides ample shade (Shed is practically the patio for Sidecar). Boisterous yet somehow chill local vibe. read more

Was craving burgers and wanted to try something new so came here after searching around. It's attached to the bar Sidecar which is easier to see from the street. You order at an outside window and there are some tables to sit outside if you don't want to go in the bar. Gf and I grabbed the Smash & Grab and the Smoke & Smash burgers; both doubles which is the way to go. Burgers were delicious and I'd say you won't go wrong with either! Also got some cajun fries on the side. Flavor was good but they were on the soft side of fries and I am a big crispy/well-done french fry guy. Not bad but I'd ask if they could do them well-done next time if possible. My only big issue was the wait time was pretty long on a Tuesday night with not many other people waiting. May be an issue on a busier night or weekend. Overall solid burger spot that I would definitely go to when in the area! read more

Sadly the burger did not live up to the hype. Smash burger seemed extra smashed as it was dry. So can't give it a good rating. Smash Burger - 2/5 sadly. Just too dry and needed lots of ketchup to help. Hot and tender 5/5 - SUPER spicy but it builds up. After three bites you need a drink. But the spices work so well and the chicken tender was literally TENDER. Fries 4/5 - great flavor, not greasy, and fresh. read more

Hit up the Shed before a show at Brick X Brick. Order a double smash burger from the cool chica at the Shed. They brought me my burger and fries. The fries were tasty and plentyful.

Stood at The Shed excited to try the place but nobody came over to take my order. The place was not even busy.

Awesome attachment to Sidecar bar. Food is fairly priced and comes out quickly from this literal shed. Service was accommodating. The burger was very flavorful. Great for those who enjoy smash burgers. The fries came out piping hot in a massive portion. Great outdoor ambiance. Would definitely return to sample their tri tip and sous vide chicken options! read more

We were in the area and stumbled upon The Shed Kitchen. The food was surprisingly good! I had the tri-tip bowl, which is probably the best protein bowl I've ever eaten. The chimichurri sauce over the sweet potatoes and broccoli was so effing fantastic! Omg! I'm drooling right now just thinking about it. My husband ordered one of the burgers and devoured it. I've never seen him lick his fingers after eating a burger. Don't forget to order the crispy banana peppers. It'll elevate every entree you order. There's no doubt that we'll eat here again! read more

I discovered The Shed when a group of friends and I went to Sidecar Bar for my husband's birthday (it's connected to the bar) and we were all pleasantly surprised by how good the food is. My husband and I have since been back a couple of times and so far, I have tried the Buffalo Mac n Cheese, a burger, and the spicy chicken tenders. It has all been such great quality and plenty of food. We also love that the sitting area for The Shed is dog friendly. It is walking distance to our home so we will continue to frequent The Shed with our pups. read more

My friend and I were looking for a quick bite during our brief lunch break near our office. We needed something with seating and that was a short walk. As there are not a lot of options in that area, The Shed was one of the few options that met our needs. The Shed is on the same property as the Sidecar Bar, and it is set up in the small parking lot, along with a section of picnic tables. It wasn't until I researched online that I learned that The Shed was open during the day. We arrived and read over the short menu. There was a bell to press to get service. When we did, the server came right out. I wanted something a little healthier, so I chose the grilled chicken protein bowl. My friend ordered the single smash burger. We sat down to wait, and the food came out quickly. It was pleasant to sit outside. I really enjoyed my food, as did my friend. I do wish their menu were a bit bigger and that they had a few more healthy options. Given my work location, I will likely have lunch there agin. read more

The Shed Kitchen is the latest vendor to function as the food service arm for Sidecar Bar on Morena Blvd. It occupies a small shack adjacent to Sidecar's main structure. I recall seeing a taco business that once operated from this space before it moved into a brick-and-mortar setup elsewhere in town. A few picnic tables were arranged in front of the shack if you wanted to dine al fresco on-site. On Tuesday to Thursday, The Shed does not open until 3 pm while on Friday to Sunday, lunch service begins at noon. For lunch (which runs until 6 pm), there was one burger combo, one fried chicken sandwich combo, and rolled tacos available as specials. The full menu offered two burgers, two tri-tip sandwiches, a chicken sandwich, tenders, wings, and mac 'n cheese with buffalo chicken on one page. The other page featured quesadillas, tacos, and fries. The Shed Cheesesteak was what I originally wanted to order, however it was unavailable/sold out. My backup choice was Just The Tip. Slices of medium rare tri-tip were placed inside a brioche bun topped with frizzled onion and chimichurri. Perhaps it was because of the stack of fried onions, but I felt the sandwich was dry even with the chimichurri sauce added. For $17.70, there was no side included which was unlike at least one local BBQ joint. They have a similar price for a tri-tip sandwich with a choice of one side. read more

I've left Sidecar plenty of love, but never gave The Shed their time in the spotlight, so here we go. The Shed is just that. It's a shed... duh. It sits adjacent to the entrance of Sidecar and is impossible to miss as patrons walk into the bar. What some may not know when walking past The Shed is that within the narrow walls lays a kitchen that produces some top-tier, possibly best bar food in the area. We've gotten everything from burgers and wings to chipotle chicken quesadillas to birria quesadillas and have never had a bad meal here. Most recently, my fiancee and I split a birria quesadilla and some lemon pepper Serrano wings. It was the perfect amount of food and with the assistance of an extra side of birria dip and ranch dressing we finished everything in our basket down to the little crispy cheese flakes that had flaked off the quesadilla. Yes... they were that good! It's so convenient to patrons and I love how you can be sitting in Sidecar enjoying your cocktail and can order food from The Shed at the same time. Sidecar makes it especially easy by having little QR code cards with The Shed's menu and you can even pay with apple pay. Once your food is ready, you'll receive a text that your food is ready for pickup at the window. It's a very efficient operation and the food is amazing. Thanks for the amazing food!!! read more

The quality of food here is INSANE. As a chef it's hard to find places that do simple things very well and The Shed goes over and beyond. I love the simple outdoor seating with everything being immaculately clean. It may have a simple exterior but what comes out of that kitchen is AMAZING. Best Smashburger & Chicken Tenders in San Diego period!!! read more

So this place is attached to sidebar. It is a small space, but you can eat outside and if your drinking at the bar you can eat your food there as well. I would say overall, the staff was very quick. As soon as you push the button they to come to the window and take your order. Make sure you know what you want before you push the button haha. The food was great. It tasted amazing. I would highly recommend this place. read more

My husband and I came at 3:30 pm on a Sunday and no one was in line and there were open tables. We ordered two "just the tip" sandwiches and "the entanglement " The trip Sandi was overflowing with well seasoned and cooked to perfection tri tip ...my husbands was more on the rare side than mine the chimchurri was a perfect sauce pairing and the bun was toasted and soft but held up to the meat. The fried onion to top it off was an obviously perfect addition. 4.5 stars The entanglement was so good fried banana peppers, homemade French fries and fried jalepeno circles..... perfect seasoned and very crispy batter. I would probably order just the banana pepper rings cause I picked them all out to be sure I got them all! The fries are very good and so were the jalepenos. Shack sauce was a Smokey had a little heat it was just ok for me. The homade ranch was excellent. Next time I want to try the other ranch flavors. The only negative I have is the lady who served us. She had a very flat affect and seemed completely annoyed with life in general. I'm not sure if it's just her personality or she was actually being rude ... with such an upbeat ambiance and bar Nextdoor I would expect more courteous service with a little kindness. I won't take a star away for it ... the food held up over the service . read more

Just had another amazing meal at The Shed! I got their version of a spicy chicken sandwich called Hot in the Henhouse--perfectly crispy with just the right kick, and the cabbage and banana peppers added a great crunch. This was our third visit, and it never disappoints. My husband had a burger and literally said it was his favorite one ever. Definitely a go-to spot for us now! And service was friendly as usual. read more

I don't get it?? Maybe it's better if you eat it there?? I was excited for this place - food looked great in the pictures and reviews were good, but it just did not live up to expectations at all. We ordered food to go and picked it up on our way home from the beach. I ordered a single smash and grab and my boyfriend ordered the double smoke and smash. What I got was a very dry, literal paper thin patty between two buns, and he got the double smash and grab, which was fine, but not what he ordered. Now don't get me wrong, I love a thin smashed patty, but this was criminal. Pictures cause it did happen. read more

I love the smash burger lunch special at The Shed which is located near the Sidecar off Morena Blvd. Smash & Grab Combo Two smashed beef patties, American cheese, Shed spread, caramelized onion, shredded lettuce, tomato, & pickles on a brioche bun Served with a side of fresh cut French fries-$12 The food is great and the prices are reasonable. The parking is not great but you can usually find something on the street. It's surprisingly good food coming out of a shack from the side of a bar. In fact, it's so good that we go there just to order takeout whenever we're craving a good burger. The service is not super fast, but it's just one or two people working there. read more

Great service. Delicious fried chicken sandwich and the burger options all sound great. Worth a stop for sure

FYI this food truck is outside but attached to a bar but kids can eat there before 3:00pm when the bar opens. Customer service was great, the menu is not extensive but that is okay. I ordered the carne casada street tacos, very basic street tacos made with high end meat and it was delicious! Guacamole had great taste and salsa is on the side I ordered medium. The corn tortillas were nice and toasty and did not fall apart while eating it. My husband ordered "just the tip", delicious! Our granddaughters shared mac n cheese with fries everything was so fresh and the ranch dressing for the fries was superb. The seating area was nice and quiet benches, some in the shade and some in the sun! We were very impressed! read more
