    Popo platter

    The food was amazing and delicious, but the rice felt like it was out of a rice cooker. The server was friendly and even poured out our soup for us! The inside had a nice ascetic The pool platter was good, but the fried food had too much breading The takeout was simple and delicious The chow mein was well seasoned and meaty, but didn't have enough shrimp The tofu was really good and juicy, the texture wasn't the best but I'd recommend it the most The soup had many toppings, but the broth lacked flavor The imperial seafood was really good, the fish had enough breading and the scallops were tasty I'd recommend going before sunset, because they use old, rice cooker rice after that

    Passed by this place so much and have always wanted to try this place out. Walked in and was greeted and seated right away. The lady who seated and waited on us, Betty was awesome. She had a great attitude and was super sweet. We ordered the Singapore Noodles and Wong's Dinner. Since it was family style we had a lot of food left order. This place is definitely experience, because they also had a bar next door where you can karaoke. Thank you Wong's Golden Palace for a fun experience and thank you to Betty our awesome waitress. If you're looking for a fun atmosphere and good service please try this place out.

    The old Good Guys tavern was sold and morphed into this new place. Let's just say I miss Good Guys…read moregreatly. When they first opened under the new name, the place had super bright lighting. Really it was weird, like medical operating room brightness...They ended up shading the lights and painted the walls dark?? Better, appropriate ambience. It's a lot more modern and cleaner than ever though. Well, so they call it a taphouse now. Which means they are a craft beer bar. With less than average beer selection on tap for a taphouse in my opinion. They do have a large can selection that pushes them up a star. Many one-off beers and smoothie styles which can be difficult to obtain. There's only one person working the bar, which has always been a friendly female. Which is appropriate for the 90% male clientele. You gotta figure this works everywhere. Take it from someone who knows, as I worked as a bartender and barback for many years. Serving beer is one thing, but it's tough getting a male bartending job in general. The selection could be better. However, the problem I have with this place is the exorbitant prices of the draft beers. This is considering the area, which is on Broadway in Lemon Grove. I mean we are talking 9 and 10$ beers here. For example, Frank the Dank- a double IPA is 10$ here. And I know where I can get these for $5 a pint... and I'm not telling where either! Actually if you do really read my reviews, this information will be eventually leaked out if it already hasn't been.. But yeah I'm sorry, but this why you are empty 80% of the time. Who can afford this in this permanently depressed area/neighborhood? The working men of course, who aren't ready to go home and deal with that nagging significant other..

    I've been to Lemon City Taphouse three times now and it's just fine. The selection is the best…read morepart, by far. There is definitely something for everyone, including non-alcoholic options. My biggest complaint would be the prices. I paid $10 for a pint of Two Towns cider, and $15 for a 19oz can of Boochcraft. The staff is always very friendly, and happy to help with beverage selection. With this being the only real craft beer option in Lemon Grove, it's a good stop, it's just going to cost you a little more.

    Now that's what I'm talking about! 4.5/5!…read more Ended up coming back out to Clem's to give it another shot. Although my last visit wasn't bad, it was just middle of the road and left me wanting more-especially in regards to the Wagyu burger and the bacon. This time around, I decided to switch it up a bit. As we arrived, I ordered my current favorite beer on tap, Coco Ono, from Bay City Brewing. It's a piña coloda IPA that's not too sweet, and has great coconut flavor. Moments later I realized that there was a Taco Tuesday special that was $15 for 2 tacos a draft beer of your choosing. Since the Coco Ono is $9 alone (ouch!), I realized it was a better deal to get the Taco Tuesday special. I asked Karina if I could turn that draft I ordered into the special, and they kindly obliged...nice! The last time I was here, I noticed some wings coming out of the kitchen and they looked awesome. So this time I knew I had to get the wings, $16. I ordered a 9 piece of Buffalo wings, per staff recommendation, and they did not disappoint. We actually got 10 piping hot wings served with stacks of baby carrots, fresh cut celery, and both ranch and blue cheese. I'd love to see them do a homemade ranch because it would better compliment the wings than that Hidden Valley stuff. Wings were a 5/5!!! I forgot to even mention the tacos. That's probably because I forgot about them...lol. While the small TJ tacos had some solid carne with onions and cilantro, they were a bit plain. Served on two tortillas with 2 salsas, and 2 limes, a little bit of guac would have livened them up. I probably wouldn't order them on their own at $3 each, but as part of the $15 deal, it was all good. 4/5 for the deal. Lastlly, we ordered the BBQ chicken pizza, which was a HITT!. I had previously tried a few slices of pepperoni pizza last time, and it was a good snack to have with some brews, but nothing memorable. However this time, the BBQ Chicken pizza was up there with my favorite one in town. It was covered with loads of chicken, which they stated was cooked in-house, cilantro and BBQ sauce. The crust did look like it was a little over baked, but it ended up having a perfect under crust with zero burnt flavor. Only the outer crust was ultimately effected and got a bit crackery. All in all it was a really delicious pie. All the while Karina and Emma were answering my many questions, tapping off our drinks, and providing pretty much anything we asked for. The food presentation was great, the restaurant was immaculate, and the service was friendly, all giving an overall 5 stars. Thanks to Emma, Karina, Paul, and the kitchen staff for making this a delicious evening. I'll definitely be back for the pizza and the wings.

    This is a popular Talmadge neighborhood hangout. They have a huge beer selection and a full bar…read more The food is fresh, well prepared with large portions. The staff is very friendly, accommodating and well trained. Taco Tues specials are popular. A great place to catch the World Cup or a Padres game.

    First time coming to this iconic San Diego wing spot/sports bar. The interior wasn't very bright…read morebut you could see and there were a good amount of TVs to watch the games they were playing. I was seated quickly on this bar table thing (not the actual bar) and it was high up. The prices were pretty expensive at $12.50 for five wings, not including any sides/sauces. I came here on a Monday and got the Monday AYCE wing special. The AYCE made it more worth it but still a bit pricy at $31 per person. For AYCE, it comes with fries or tater tots, a sauce, 10 wings, and some carrots and celery for your first order. After that, you get 5 wings per refill. The wings were a good size though the skin wasn't really crispy or anything. I tried buffalo, lemon pepper, and flaming honey mustard. Buffalo and lemon pepper are my go to flavors but I didn't really enjoy any of the flavors I tried. There were an overwhelming amount of flavors so it was a bit hard to choose on the spot with AYCE but now I wish I tried some different ones. Our waitress was pretty nice and checked in on us a good amount. Overall, I felt like the food was just okay, and for the value made it less good. My rating is a bit higher because of the service. I might come back to try some other flavors since this is such an iconic San Diego chain.

We were seated by a woman who seemed mostly checked out. Not rude but didn't see to care much. Our server was nice and efficient. My wings came out five minutes before my boyfriends tenders came out. Never good. They need an expedited to help with this. The wings were solid good and the tendered were outstanding. That said $54 for some chicken and fries is a lot. And the 4-% service fee -well, you know how I feel about that. It's a rip and it should not be done charge more. Be honest. Now the cringe.... We were seated where you could see the kitchen window and soda machine. Yay! They always used the ice scoop. Well done. But then they picked up unwrapped straws from the top (where your mouth goes) with their bare hands. Not sanitary at all. The food is good if overpriced. The service is ok and the health safety aspects seem to be hit and miss.
