“Had our food delivered, so I can't comment on the atmosphere. But the burgers and fries we got were great! I particularly loved the Well D'Onion burger; the spicy ranch had flavorful kick with just a little tingly on the lips, not burning your mouth off. Good stuff. Totally will get food there again as I want to try a shake too.“

“This is the perfect spot to satisfy your hunger, a true California classic conveniently located right off the freeway. With ample parking and a drive-through option, it's a super convenient stop. Although the drive-through line can sometimes be lengthy, the quality here is consistent with other In-N-Out locations I've visited. Plus, there are gas stations nearby for a quick refill before hitting the freeway again.“

“Great local vibe with friendly staff and good food. Ate at the bar and was immediately greeted with a smile. Sam suggested the cheesesteak with fries. It was spot on. If I was picky, I would have a bit more seasoning. The fries were awesome too. Nice crispy and battered.“

“Amazing place. Top notch food. They were so nice too. We brought our dog (pug) and were able to sit outside. They were super patient with us as we figured out what we wanted. If you just want a nice place to get some breakfast - this is your go-to for the Oceanside/Carlsbad area. I wish we were native to the area so I can go more often!“

“This place is fantastic if you're a beer lover! Also it's very dog friendly, they even allow dogs inside. I've only ever been here for work happy hours, but I definitely need to make the trek sometime to experience it without a big group, because I have no clue what the food menu actually looks like. All I know is the food we have here is always really good. Parking can be a bit tight sometimes but that's the only real downside.“

“Stopped here today for breakfast and my friend wanted to have lunch. I got the pancakes with scrambled eggs and potatoes, it was pretty good. My friend got an Impossible burger and subbed the fries with onion rings which she said was very good. She also got crispy green beans which it tried and were good. The one thing that bothered me the most was that when she went to put her green beans on a plate the bottom of the container has red cabbage stuffed in the bottom to make it look like it was filled with the green beans.These 2 meals with the tip came to $71.00!!!Restaurants are getting crazy with their prices. ?“

“Our family is in town for two weeks on a little vacation type trip. We have been here twice in the first few days. The food is so delicious. We have had the bbq burger, cosmo fries, the chicks (regular chicken tenders), hot dog, and all have been so good. We definitely recommend trying this place if you stop in at the windmill food hall. They are also listed for delivery on the delivery apps. The windmill food hall also has a little arcade type area which our kiddo really enjoyed.“

“I picked up a bagel next door this morning and wanted to come back and try out the burger place. I came back during dinner time and it was packed. The bar was full and I wanted something more quiet. They put me in the outside seating area. The decor is very rustic and the music was all 80's rock. Perfect. I ordered the mushroom burger and my server recommended doing it with a double smash burger. I'm glad she did. The burger looked great along with the truffle fries. The fries were fantastic. Great flavor and the parm helped balance them. The bun had a sweetness to it and over all the flavors were on point. The server and staff were attentive and great. All around good visit and would definitely come back.“

“Let me tell you a lot about this restaurant: My brother and I decided to go out for dinner while we were staying at sharoton hotel. We of course out of convenience pick their on site restaurant the 7 mile kitchen. The name is catchy, I must admit but I have, sadly, no idea what it means. As we walked into the place I was struck by the atmosphere. The decorations were unique and fun and the view was splendid but I have to admit the rest was quite depressing. We came at around 5:30 but the restaurant was dead other than a family who seemed to be quite hangry at a table near the entrance. There was no background music and there was an obnoxious tv in the corner that was quite distracting. We walked to the desk where the hostess, Simon, met us. He was polite and very nice but seemed bored, sad, and wishing that he could be out at the beach rather than working as a hostess. We continued to our table, a squishy booth with a table that was mostly sanitary other than a few funky stains and spots. Our waiter came to greet us by the name of Edgar. He was very studious. He gave us water which was very nice even though it tasted like butt, but that’s California water for you. But back to our experience, we then looked through the menu and chose the margarita pizza, mushroom truffle pizza, and a Cesar salad and Edgar very kindly took our order with his cute notepad. We then waited for a respectable 15 minutes for a dinner. In the mean time we drank our butt water and watched the other waiters do their job, Reynard and Charlie. They seemed to be doing splendid Reynard was very very nice and Charlie did a great job cleaning up the food that some kid dropped all over the floor. She did it with a bright smile on her face and she looked like she was having a sunny day. A lady by the name of Megan brought out our food. Let me tell you a little bit about Megan. She, according to her name tag, was IN to gardening. That’s all I know about Megan. Now on to the food:Cesar salad- greens= fresh, delicious and CRISPY, dressing=mhmmmmmmmmmm yummmy all in all would def recommendMargarita pizza- at first glance and last glance it looks like cheese pizza. First bite and last bite, looks like cheese pizza. But it was quite enjoyable! It was a little soggy but the tomato sauce was SPLENDID and the motzerrepla was great. Sometimes it all fell off the crust though like a slip in slideTruffle pizza- As I toke my first bite the flavors rushed into my mouth. The main one being BURNT crust. It was CHARRED like when charazard breathes on a peice of wood. Other than that it was actually pretty tasty ?.Portions- 1 pizza per HUNGRY person ??Next a lady by the name of Ashlyn took our plates away. She was bubbly an warm and just overall a very nice person! She get an A+!!!!Then Edgar came over with a bamboo check thing and we paid. Then we left the table and walked into the hotel lobby listening to SCREAMING kids.Overall Rating3.85869684858685848585/5 ⭐️7.85736274846485848/10B-Emoji rating- ?Tips:Keep up the good work, get the cooking down on those pizzas ? be a weee bit better. Waiters - you are #CrushingIt“
