We went to Kalaveras for Happy Hour and we really enjoyed it! This was the Chula Vista location on…read more3rd Avenue, used to be the old Fudruckers. Parking shouldn't be an issue, they have spots in the front but then there's the big garage right behind it, and it's free. There's also street parking but you might have to pay. The place itself is very spacious and clean. They also have an outdoor patio for dogs. I do know later in the evening it gets louder and more like a club vibe, but it's not bad. Service was perfectly fine. I had no issues at all. Staff greeted us with a smile when we walked in. They were always checking up on us when we needed things. No issues at all. I thought everyone was doing their jobs. Happy hour is so worth it here. $1.99 tacos! I had the carne asada, birria and Chicharonnes tacos! While the meat portions look small, y'all need to realize this is happy hour street tacos! Adding some salsa from the self serve bar, it was so worth the price. We had 11 tacos, cheese nachos, 2 beers and 1 margarita and it was about $50! So worth it! I highly recommend Kalaveras for Mexican food. Great vibes. Great happy hour prices. I think this place is good for large groups also. It may not be kid friendly later into the night but it's very worth it!

Was visiting San Diego for the weekend and my friend recommended Kalaveras for Sunday Brunch…read more They opened at 10, and we were one of the first to get there. The brunch buffet is definitely worth the price. The food was excellent, the service was attentive and fast and the music and indoor area was cool. I can't wait to be back in San Diego to have brunch at Kalaveras again. Authentic Mexican food, friendly service and great vibe.

Last minute Friday walk-in. Had Landon and she was amazing. She offered their housemade ranch, was…read moresuper attentive, and even anticipated a lot of our needs. I appreciated her offering to warm up the chicken for our salad and had an overall great vibe and attitude the entire tonight. For food, we enjoyed the fried tempura green beans, their chicken sandwich with mushrooms, and the Chinese chicken salad that had water chestnuts and a great dressing. Also love their ranch dressing! Sad to hear they stopped their unlimited fries but probs better off without it.

They have a great happy hour menu and the portions are hearty. We shared 4 plates for 3 people and…read moreeveryone was full after. The food tasted great, the Brussels sprouts were sweet which was new but good. The wontons had a crispy outside with a soft inside and the sauce paired nicely. I'm not a fan of shrimp but I had one and it didn't have an overwhelming fishy taste. Not a big fan of the Tex-mex egg rolls, they seem to just be a knock off chilis southwestern egg rolls but the ingredients were too big and it fell apart easily. Overall the food was good. The seating was for 4 people and we only had 3, I don't see how 4 people's food can fit on that small table but it wasn't an issue. Everything was clean, the staff was nice but avoidant. We didn't have utensils for one person and it took until the food came out to have someone stop for long enough to ask for it. We saw them pass by several times, I am sure they were super busy so it's understandable. I would go back, they have great deals and good food.

Cheesecake Factory located in Chula Vista in the mall so parking is easy. We went for Happy Hour…read moreeats. They had a range of eats for $10.99. Customer service was good until we had food packed to go. Food had some challenges, it was just ok... We ordered: HH burger - came with lettuce and pickles on the side. HH hot spinach and cheese dip - came with thin tortilla chips HH calamari - came with cocktail sauce and a garlic sauce Burger came with melted cheese but, all the veggies on the side. It would have been better with just a fully constructed burger as it got messy trying to add the lettuce and pickles. Spinach dip was delish. It was sad that when our waiter packed it up to go, it was tossed in a container with the condiment containers and looked like slop after we opened it up. PISS POOR PACKAGING TO SAY THE LEAST! To open a to-go container to enjoy your left overs and your dip was mixed in with plastic containers...unacceptable in my opinion! Put to go items in appropriate containers! Calamari was practically all stuck together in a ball form with just a few pieces separated! ABSOLUTELY SLOPPY in food preparation!

Early morning breakfast before mall opening…read more Pork chop was more tender last time they had it as a special menu. Eggs were prepared as I ordered. Chips' crispness is still there even though they're smothered with cheese/sauce. 4/5 American Breakfast - nothing special. Bread was a little burnt. Crispy bacon and great scrambled eggs. 3/5 Country Skillet - good ratio of ham, veggies, and cheese. I wish it had more of the country-style gravy. 4/5 Service could have been better. I had to grab my utensils from the next table. 3/5 Brunch option while shopping at Bonita Mall.

This was my first time here. We came during lunch time, on…read morea Friday. I recommend to come at this time. There was no one here. We were served by Patty. She was very polite and fast. The ambiance is a chill California pub feel. Similar to a Buffalo Wild Wings, but brighter. They have a full bar and tons of TVs to watch sports. I assume it gets very packed at night, during game time. I do want to come here on a football night. The bone in chicken wing, had a nice light crunch. Not over fried. Now the Parmesan sauces were good, but also on the saltier side. The Steak Philly, was great. Well season, and they butter toast the buns. The Sweet Potato fries were also lightly fried and seasoned well. Now the Mexican Corn was outstanding. It had mayo and light spiced seasoning on it. I assume it had chilly powder and paprika, along with Parmesan. The chicken nuggets were thick and a kids favorite. I will put a follow up review.

We made a reservation online, but there was plenty of seating when we arrived. The seating hostess was nice and our waiter was great! We opted to sit outside since the weather was nice which gave us a great view of the marina. Our drinks and food were delicious! We took some of our waiter's suggestions and they were all good, we definitely left stuffed. We will certainly be returning!

This lively chain…read moresteakhouse serves up some delicious American fare with a Southwestern spin amid a Texas-themed decor! The ambiance is lively and the staff are friendly, attentive, and very welcoming! Mizael was great! I mean what's not to love about their perfectly cooked steaks, fall-off-the-bone ribs and their famous fresh-baked rolls with cinnamon butter- chefs kiss! Everything was amazing from parking, wait time, service, food, and atmosphere! I will say, this location seemed less busy than El Cajon (it was crowded, but no wait time). We were seated right away. Of course I ordered the 20 oz. Ribeye with loaded mash- the steak was seasoned well, cooked medium rare, with those nice char-grilled ribbons on the exterior! My daughter also ordered the 20 oz. Ribeye with a baked potato- perfectly seared with great caramelization on the outside. My son got his usual- chicken tenders! My daughter ordered a bacon cheeseburger with fries. And my wife ordered a 6 oz. Sirloin- well, well done! I'm literally crying!!! I can't!!! Overall, we had an incredible time and wonderful dining experience! We will definitely be back next month for our steak fix! Cheers!

Vica's Cafe is such a cute little gem in Chula Vista. The owner was so sweet, and the service was…read morefriendly from start to finish. We ordered the French Toast, Pink Pancakes, Poblano Omelette, Chiles en Nogada, Birriaquiles, and Cafe de Mazapan, and honestly, we enjoyed everything. The Pink Pancakes were so pretty and made for the cutest photos. The Poblano Omelette had a delicious, creamy poblano green sauce. The Chiles en Nogada was probably the most unique dish for me. The sauce was sweet and yummy, while the savory ground beef & pork, plus the pops of pomegranate seeds, created such an interesting contrast. We dipped the breakfast potatoes into the sauce and it was so good! Definitely a dish I'd recommend trying. The Birriaquiles came with a good amount of birria, and the meat was juicy and tender. And the Cafe de Mazapan was not only pretty but also yummy! It's a perfect sweet coffee pick-me-up for brunch. The interior is absolutely adorable - everything is pink and feminine, truly a pink girl's dream! I'd come back to try more of their menu.

I don't normally leave food reviews, but unfortunately this experience was disappointing. The…read moreservice was slow we had to ask for creamer three times and water multiple times. My steak was tough, and my brother's machaca and beans tasted old and were inedible. I had no issue paying half for the meals, even though my brother's food was untouched. What really bothered me was how the server handled it, loudly questioning us in front of other customers and saying there had been no complaints about the beans. It became so uncomfortable that another table asked for our experience as this was our first time as well and two other tables ended up leaving. I ended up paying cash because I didn't feel comfortable using my card after the experience. Hopefully management can address both the food quality and how customer complaints are handled.
