A hidden gem! We are travelers and just wandering around Escondido looking for a place to grub....and they beckoned us in! Super nice guys serving and bartending and really good food!!! Because it was a small place with a relaxed bar vibe, we expected just decent bar food. Nope! The menu was as way better than bar food. My hubby had a great Greek gyro, my son had tasty Buffalo wings, and I had spicy edamame that I loved. Then, my son had two desserts...Choco molten cake and then crème brûlée. Really...in a neighborhood bar? The best part was the fun and personable service. Finding places like this are the best part of vacations!

Hidden gem for sure. I can't say who the secret chef is (because we recognize the flavors and near-identical tastes), but the menu is split with another local favorite - fusion... so the mix of items is vast. Generally something for everyone, so no one will be left undecided. It was quiet and empty when we dined, but definitely a worthwhile stop.

Great food and good service. Friendly people everywhere with great music. Had Mediterranean platter chicken combo meal and some mojitos. The music was good but too loud and didn’t like the fact that they charged extra when paying by credit card. This is a big no for me.

It's hard to rate this place because when I came about lunchtime, they didn't have much on the menu. That was strange, but apparently was due to my visit on a Wednesday. So I only had a couple of beers. They don't have a large selection. I tried a Brown and didn't care for it. I then tried a Black (I think it was a poerter), and that was good. Beer is a personal choice, so you may have other opinions. I came in because I often walk by in the evening and it looked fun. They say there is live music on weekends. It is possible that I will return for the music.

Stopped in for a bite to eat, 2 man band was playing, they were decent but too loud for the venue in my opinion. The bartender was our sever, took order, and gave him so information, and he made a very appealing cocktail with gin. I did like the fact the menu let you know how many orders were left and what was sold out. Ordered the 3 bulgogi beef sliders, onion rings, and the California salad with the bulgogi beef.The salad could have had slightly more bulgogi beef and I liked the extra dressing. The sliders were so fresh and cooked to perfection the juices ran out onto my hand and other sliders, extra napkins were given and needed.

I ordered the salmon and it was okay. Little overcooked and too much glaze but the real let down was the canned asparagus that came with it. Not a fan. My partner ordered the bulgogi fries and said they were decent. I think this place does bar food better than their entrees.

I had a friend visiting and we were looking for a nice place to go for happy hour. Selena was the bartender and she had the worst attitude and customer service I’ve ever experienced. We didn’t stay and I will not be back.

Waited at least 10 minutes before being greeted while sitting at the bar for fast service. Friendly staff. I got the bulgogi fries dish and it had a long strand wrapped in it. Full stop.

The bartender ( Selena)was very rude.She was not attentive, we sat at the bar, to make it easier for her and she still didn't give any attention.Will not be back.
If you're just coming for some drinks and to catch a game, I'm sure it would be great.. but the food, was not. We ordered the margarita flatbread and could not finish it. I can't even tell you what kind of cheese was used.

Keeps getting better. If you tried it a year ago and didn't go back, try it again. They have revamped menu and it's great! Fan favorite evening out with my husband: the artichoke dip and a blueberry mojito, and chatting with super sweet bartender Tiffany while watching football game on huge screen. Sit at the bar!

The food was alright. Nothing that blew me out of the water, but it wasn't bad either. Typical bar food.

Food was really good! We all enjoyed what we got. Shrimp tacos were really yummy and the pesto burger was giant and comes with fries that were perfect!Staff was really helpful and sweet.Love that a couple of the tables have cute bay window sweating.It's located right on grand, full bar, and has live music in the evenings.Will be going back!
