“Ordered the Ortega Chili burger with steak fries to go. It is a solid burger, tasty, and they wrapped the lettuce, onions, and tomato separately so it didn’t get mushy during the ride home. Loved it!The steak fries were not so tasty. Maybe old oil or whatever, but I think I will try their onion rings next because those steak fries missed the target.“
“still here at the moment. this place is a cozy, hole in the wall establishment. the smash burger they have here is intoxicating all on it's own, it literally melts in your mouth. I added some fries on the side and my drink of choice was the natural red wine. I paired these fantastic options with the outdoor seating that is located in the back. I chose this place because it's within walking distance of where I live. I'm glad it's nearby, because I'll be coming back again. It's my first time here by the way. 5 out of 5 ! Also, let me add that the music playlist they have in rotation is curated perfectly well. Good vibes to say the least.“
“We always receive great service and excellent food from The Junction! One of our many favorites are the Diablo and the French Dip. Great place to meet up with friends and familyParking: A few businesses in the complex but there has always been parking available“
“Yep... I'm the Mom of Jayson! I took my son here after looking at reviews on Google, it looked very entertaining. And it was! You guys were so nice as the band invited Jayson on stage to sing happy birthday for his 21st birthday!! It was such a lovely gesture and greatly appreciated. Serious Guise sang awesome rock songs and people were super nice. We will be back!!“
“I really like this sandwich shop and love that I can get a small sandwich and soup and it'll can be stretched to two meals. The sandwiches are fresh, the breads, meats, and they are not shy with the veggies. They also have a great selection of soups that is hard to find these days. You can order ahead online or in-person- either works and the service is fast and friendly.“
“ABSOLUTELY ?+.... ONE OF THEE BEST AND PHENOMENAL STAFF AND ATMOSPHERE!! SO VERY KIND WITH WELCOMING HEARTS, AS YOU WALK INTO THEE ESTABLISHMENT ? IMPECCABLE SPORTS BAR!! FOOD AND DRINKS WERE DELICIOUSLY APPETIZING ? WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND DEFINITELY STOPPING IN.“
“So glad that I finally made it to this bar after living in the neighborhood for so long. I'm also very glad that I came in with a regular who knew a person or two as this has a very "locals" feel to it. First thought that ran through my head was that it was much bigger than I had expected it to be. I didn't even make it to the other side of the bar, which is also sizeable. Service was quick and there were a few folks playing pool on one of the two tables that I saw, (there may be more) and it had a nice outdoor space for patrons to go to for a quick smoke or two. Prices were average and the people were friendly, and for that, what more can you really ask for in a neighborhood bar?“
“We love this place. Food is great, reasonably priced, and the staff are always kind and easy to order with. We like it here so much we had them cater our kids birthday party and the rolled tacos were a hit. Our favorite dish is their big rolled tacos and their albóndigas!“
“i come to this bar every day to play pool in a nice laid back environment. one bartender that really stands out to me is Jamie. she always goes above and beyond to make sure every guest in the bar has a great experience. by far my favorite bar in lemon grove. great bar, great owner and GREAT BARTENDERS.“
“Good drinking and good karoake crowd on Wednesdays from 8pm to closing. The bartender, Tyler is really funny and spreads good energy out to everyone. Has a "Cheers" vibe. If looking for a dive bar with good vibes in the area, this is the place. Especially on Wednesday “
“We visit Oggi's about four times a month. The food can be a little inconsistent, but we really like the weekday special menu. We always request to sit in Jessica r section, she is so friendly, and always has a smile for you no matter what her day is like. She is honestly the reason that we go back so often,also, it's very nice to have the option to sit outside.“
“Service was great, drinks prices were reasonable, and the vibe was chill. I don't go to a lot of bars but I heard they do a comedy open mic night on Sunday nights at 9p so I wanted to check it out since there aren't really any east of clairemont that I could find. Only a couple of people went up but I'll come back and see if that's how it usually is or if it was just a slow night. Good times either way.“
“I was introduced to Regal by a friend because she was hung up on a guy who lived in the area so of course she found any excuse to appear in his neighborhood all prettied up on a Friday night. What better way to coax me into co-lurking someone? Oh I don't know, cheap alcohol? Well fortunately nobody endured the awkwardness of running into the man in question but I'll say that Regal may be La Mesa's one little gem worth visiting. I don't know if it's because I'm in my 30's but I prefer Regal over Coin Haus and The Hills. Why? Let me break it down: - Full service bar vs. beer only - No line out the door vs. line out the door - Mature locals vs. barely 21 IG content creators - Bar on the main strip near cute shops vs. the isolated bar up the hill So if you want the IG story tag with the novelty bells and whistles, the lukewarm beer, and the sub-par food, you go to Coin Haus. If you want something isolated and away from the main strip where you need to line up outside with all the Riff Raffs and Eminems, you go to The Hills Pub. I've done both a handful of times but I prefer the affordable and clean Regal bar where I can choose my usual poison then disappear into the patio. What else can I say? It's a local bar and it's not a bad one.“
“It was ok. A bit loud. I ate there. I only tried one thing. It was my first time there. I had a hamburger & fries with something to drink. I was surprised that there were several kids there because of drinking but they serve food which is probably why. Service was good.“
“Not really a fan of sports bars, but here it is no bother to have screens everywhere and the food is amazing! That BBQ sauce needs bottling...yummmParking: There is parking, but when its busy there is overflow spacesWheelchair accessibility: A very shallow step in, but I wouldn't think it would create a huge issue“
“Tuesday half off wings, good taste. Like very much. Eat too much. Gain weight a lot. Still happy because wings. Messy hands. Napkins many. Straws not plastic. Wings yes chicken. Much variety. Tater Tots garlic pomegranate muy bueno. TVs on walls show sport, no TVs on floor or ceiling. Discourage napping but want nap after many wings eat good.Update: February 22. Still slaps.“
“A dive bar with a couple pool tables, a few TVs, adequate service and overpriced booze. The main attraction here is karaoke on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights. The locals are mostly friendly, there is an enclosed patio for smokers and the bathroom is usually clean.“

“I met a friend for lunch at her suggestion that we try Tio Leo's. They have a very reasonable lunch menu for $15. Also, there is a 4% routine discount when paying with cash!The food was very good, the quacamole was creamy, the chips were thin & crispy, the salsa was spicy (much to my liking), and the service was exemplary!Muchas Gracias, Tio Lio's! ?✅️“
“The big rolled tacos (with potato) come fully loaded and are a great healthy, hearty meal. Staff were awesome, outdoor seating was perfect for an early evening dinner.Kid-friendliness: Kid’s menu has the standard fare- quesadillas and chicken nuggets with fries.“
“These guys offer good quality Mexican eats. I've had a variety of tacos from here, including carnitas, adobada, and carne asada tacos.They were solid and came with very good house salsa. Service is friendly, and they offer beer and wine at this location.“
“I come here a lot for HH with friends and always have a pretty good time. Lots of TVs with the games on. Servers and bartenders are pretty nice and usually are quick, though sometimes it takes a while for them to greet you or check on you.Food had always come out quick and I haven't had anything awful here yet. I will say, I die for their trash can nachos. They are my jam!Drink wise, they have a plethora of options.It's not a bad place to bring your entire family if you're in the mood for sports and some yummy food. It's definitely a sports bar, but a classy one.“
“Great place with lovely staff. They truly need much more vegetarian options. Every salad was chicken. Not everyone wants an Impossible burger.All the meals were meat-based. Most of the appetizers were meat-based. Come on, Applebee's. Thank you!“
“The alexadilla is a California burrito wrapped in a quesadilla and you can clearly tell it is a quesadilla which I loved. It wasn't overly loaded with just fries. There was a good mix of everything inside. The meat wasn't SUPER flavorful but overall the burrito was good. The red and green hot sauces were both very good and had nice flavor. The girl who took my order was so nice and personable and definitely wanted to make sure you got what you wanted. Inside was very clean and the had seating for to-go orders that wouldn't take up the seating for people trying to eat there. The music was a notch louder than I would prefer but not unbearable. I will definitely go back to try some of the other items on the menu.“
