    Hair in my 6 Breadsticks! Gross!
    Deandre J.

    ordered food yesterday at this location... was presented with hair cooked into my breadsticks and was offered more hairy breadsticks in return from andrea the cashier! she was nice, but an awful counter. never will i feel comfortable eating breadsticks from here again.

    Traditional Wings with veggie sticks (Medium & Mango Habanero)
    Abelita-Rose F.

    Overall I gave a three rating due to the fact I love flavor and HOTNESS and that was missing on the French fries and mango habanero flavor. I, however, loved the fried zucchini and the fresh homestyle favor of the ranch. The fries were fresh cooked but has not season or salt so I ordered a side of cheese to dip them in. I got the 8 pc traditional wings with medium hot and mango habanero. I didn't get a hotter traditional buffalo because I thought the mango habanero was gonna knock my socks off. My biggest disappointment was the mango habanero because it was on the HOT side of the chart but was actually sweet with no hotness on them at all. The medium was about a mild level but the wings were edible just not the flavors I was expecting. It atmosphere was nice with tables and high tops to choose from with sit in or take out available. The two woman working were sweet and helpful. Besides wings there were Buffalo fries, cheesecake and even ribs (that had me curious) available. Other than the flavors on the wings and fries, I'd probably visit Empire Wings again.

    Lemon Pepper wings with feathers

    Removing feathers from chicken, tossing with wings in sauce, and frying them enough. Fry French fries longer to reduce sogginess (this was requested).

    flies all over the counter

    If I could give 0 stars I would. I usually go to the Wings Empire on orange avenue but it closes at 9 and it was around 9:05. I saw that this place closes at 10, so I tried calling to place a phone order but no one was picking up the phone. I decided to go in person and order. The food took 25 mins to complete maybe even longer. Initially they gave me the wrong order so I had to wait even longer to get the correct order. While we were waiting there were flies all over the floor, counter and tables. Gnats were going on my clothes and falling on my face while I waited at a table for my food to be done. By the time I got my food and left, I felt so itchy by being in the restaurant. I will not be going back and will stick to going to the one on orange avenue.

    "TENDERS"
    Kimberly P.

    I called in for a 10 tender meal and a side of breadsticks. I was told 15 mins and no issue there. My issue was upon receiving my food and unfortunately not checking until I got home I noticed my "tenders" were more like chicken nuggets. I was like blown away I feel played. Shame shame

    Oh also the carrots and celery frozen and defrost with some sort of white slime carrots.... Grosssss food...

    Super dry chicken meat like double fried. Mac & Cheese is water and Mac salad water. These guys were on top but maybe it went to the head or new owner. Either way wow not good. It's like smoke ribs smoked 12 hrs to super dry meat they suck no joke.... Crappy to say it short............................

    Boyfriend and I always get our Buffalo Chicken Fries here !
    Dalilla C.

    My boyfriend and I always come here to get some Buffalo fries every once In a while with a side of 6 bread sticks and it's always the bomb ! Definitely recommend getting food here ! Always delicious. Order ahead over the phone so by the time you get there ,you just need to pay ! Typically they just ask for a name when ordering over the phone . COVID - they do not have dine-in seating nor outdoor seating . Take out and delivery only . They have 6 ft markers on the floor for social distancing.

    I ordered some buffalo chicken fries with mild sauce with a little bit of mango habanero. It was perfect and beautiful. It was delicious. It was the right amount of sauce, the right amount of fries and the right amount of meat. I definitely recommend going here!!!

    Service was great. Waitress was holding the place down by herself very impressively…read more I got the famous rosiemac burger double patty and it was very delicious however I think the cheese may have overpowered it and I think next time I would choose one without the cheese completely. Onion rings were ok. Nothing to rave about honestly. The seasoning on it made them seem nicer but I think it just took away from a good ol fashioned onion rings, they also added a seasoning to the ranch to pair with the onion ring and I wasn't a huge fan. Next time I definitely want to try a different burger and opt for the elote fries or no fries at all. I'm just happy to finally be able to cross this place off my list of must tries, lol. Looking forward to my next visit

I've gone here several times and each experience has always lived up to the great expectation of each burger I've tried. Prices are a little up there given "the size" of the burgers, but you're paying for the ingredients and quality of it. The flavors of each burgers are truly incredible. Everything is fresh, cooked to perfection, and explained very well when brought to the table. I forgot the name of the burger I tried, but it was chicken based that was like a curry infused (it was yellow) and I thought it was a nice edition to the menu. Side note, you might want to wear gloves or eat with knife and fork as you'll be using a lot of napkins for sure (haha) I will continue to show the love for this place and enjoy this as one of my "special treat meals". Thanks for the wonderful experience.

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.

Pros: I got the half-pound burger with fries and it was really good overall. The burger was super juicy, well-cooked, and had that classic hearty, satisfying taste you want from a solid burger spot. The portion size was generous, especially with the half-pound patty, and the fries were a great side to round out the meal. The location in Pacific Beach is also a big plus. It's in a great area with lots going on, so it's easy to grab food and walk around afterward or make it part of a beach day. The overall vibe of the spot feels casual and fitting for PB--nothing overly fancy, just good comfort food done right. Cons: Since it's in a busy beach area, parking and crowds can be a bit of a challenge depending on the time you go. It's more of a casual grab-and-go or quick dine-in spot, so don't expect a sit-down restaurant experience with a lot of space or quiet seating. During peak beach hours, it can also get pretty busy. Verdict: Overall, Rocky's Burgers is a great spot in Pacific Beach if you're craving a juicy, satisfying burger in a fun beachside area. The half-pound burger and fries hit the spot, and it's a solid choice for a casual meal before or after hanging out in PB.

    The legend himself, Mr. Anthony Bourdain, once said "good food is very often, even most often,…read moresimple food." In this case, The Friendly deserves its recognition as a no nonsense establishment that embodies Bourdain's wisdom. Let's get into it. Cuisine: 5/5. The Dirty Flat Top Cheeseburger and any of their pizzas by the slice merit waiting in a short line. Who would have thought that a medium size smash burger could pack in the flavor without breaking the bank? It's simple. It's flavorful. And it's affordable. You can enjoy the burger while your pie is being prepared. I've tried a few of the pizzas and they're all solid, and still better than Lou Malnati's in Chicago. Look, when you're jaded from overpaying for whack burgers in L.A. (Wally's & Marvito come to mind), it's easy to be shocked back into reality by good food at reasonable prices. Beverages: 4/5. Beer. Sodas. $1 off if you shotgun the beer. Say less. Service: 5/5. No frills. No performative friendliness. Just a direct style of communication and the efficiency of the staff. Thank you! Buen provecho

This place is a rough diamond for certain, and I hope they never try to polish it up. My usual order is the Shitkicker burger, onion rings, and something on tap, though I've select a can now and again. The flavor of the burger never fails to satisfy, with perfect patties, melts cheese, and bbq sauce. So many burger joints do crumb crusted onion rings, so the Friendly's battered beauties are a treat of an alternative and always golden brown and crispy. I enjoy the patio setting, even in the summer heat, because there are usually enough shady seats to go around, and the family and dog-friendliness is a plus. Should I add the prices can't be beat? Enjoy the Friendly. Everything you want, nothing you don't.
