Respectable craft beer selection, respectable pizza. Solid place to get your drink on, but it definitely gets crowded so you may end up getting cozy with some strangers. Tables and bar space are at a premium here, so as long as you have no shame and…More »

Soooo happy that Pizza Port finally opened up in OB. Yay parking! Yay spacious dining areas! It's clean! Wow!

Everything here is exactly like the Solana Beach location, except more spacious. The dining area is still picnic bench-style seating, but the…More »

I cannot tell you how ashamed of how little I've been to Toronado since moving literally five blocks away, but...somehow, I just haven't made it there as often as I'd like. And as often as I'd like would probably be as often as my wallet can handle…More »

Love this place. Great taplist, as to be expected of any decent SD bar, delicious food. It's cool and laidback without the usual overflow of too-cool-for-school hipsters you'll find in North Park. Now - the food. It's bar food, but it's bar food done…More »

In the middle of a shopping center that contains a sticker photo shop, multiple bubble tea places, a Yogurt World, Tofu House and a freaking Morning Glory lies O'brien's, the Irish bastion of alcohol. An Irish pub in the middle of Fob Central? Sure,…More »

It's always five o'clock somewhere, right?

Just kidding...at the risk of sounding alcoholic, it's actually best to avoid Hamilton's at peak drunkening time. The beer list here is impressive, as others have stated repeatedly, but it does get super…More »

  9/28/2008

This is probably the most unnecessary review I will ever write for Yelp, because Alesmith's reputation precedes it. It is hands-down the best brewery in San Diego, and it is less than five miles away from me, tucked away in a random business park.…More »

Stouty stout stout...I love stout...here it goes down...down into my belly.

BALLAST POINT VICTORY AT SEA. DRINK NOTHING ELSE. THE END.

All right, the Yellowtail Pale Ale is pretty good, and so is the IPA. These people are serious about their beer. $6…More »

I'm so glad that my friend introduced me to this place. It's a great little dive bar. The prices are reasonable ($10-12 for a pitcher of local beer), the music is good and not too loud, and the beer is great. I love the atmosphere here; it's a great…More »
