Categories:
Wine Bars,
Beer, Wine & Spirits
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
Hubby and I came here with his good friend this evening. I made a pretty large advancement in school today, so we figured why not celebrate and really enjoy ourselves? So we did!
We did a bottle of Moscato Allegro, which was a DELICIOUS slightly…More »

I just have to update my review on this place. I come here rather often. It's so delicious that I sometimes even forget to check in on Yelp!

Came here yesterday to get a couple of sandwiches. I grabbed the vegetarian Philly Cheesesteak and… Read more »
3. In N Out Burger
We LOVE our In N Out. I get a grilled cheese with only pickles, fries, and a coke, and hubby gets a double double with onion, without tomato, fries, and a root beer.
This place is DELICIOUS, the service is great, and the employees are nice. Even…More »
4. Bank of America
San Diego, CA 92108
(858) 452-8400
Categories:
Banks & Credit Unions,
Mortgage Brokers
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
I don't understand why this bank has such low ratings. It's a bank. I don't go to the bank to get waited on or to talk to very nice people. I go to the bank to take care of financial business. As long as it's a quick and professional experience,…More »
5. US Post Office
This is easily the best post office in the area. Everyone who works here is very friendly and happy to help their customers. I come here to do all of my mailing, purchasing stamps, etc.
Unfortunately, my mail comes from the Linda Vista post office,…More »
6. AMC Mission Valley 20
There are 3 movie theaters in Mission Valley. Don't go to Ultrastar. Don't go to the one at Fashion Valley. Come to this one! Here's what I like about this AMC in list format!
- It's easy to get to. The Mission Valley Mall isn't the worst one to…More »
7. The UPS Store
San Diego, CA 92108

Category:
Shipping Centers
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
I like this UPS store. I just came in here today for the first time and was given excellent service. I didn't come here to mail anything, no. I came for a box for my kitten to play in.
The guy who helped me was very nice and professional. I…More »
8. Rubio's Fresh Mexican Grill
Bean burritos are in my top 5 favorite things in the universe. I love them. Really, I love Rubio's bean and cheese burritos. They are just wonderful.
Now, for a review on this location. I like it a lot. It's close by my house. The employees are…More »
9. Pei Wei Asian Diner
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 321-6670
Category:
Asian Fusion
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
I like Pei Wei. I'm shocked that I don't come here more often. This location is great. It's close to my house (I could walk if I really wanted to) and it's right next to Target and the rest of the Mission Valley Mall. I like this.
The food is…More »
10. The Cheesecake Factory
San Diego, CA 92108

Categories:
American (New),

Neighbourhood: Linda Vista
A good friend and I came to the Cheesecake Factory last night to have a snack and a piece of cheesecake and drinks before going out. The wait for a table was 45 minutes, so we opted to sit at the bar instead. So this review is for the bar.
The…More »
11. Old Navy
This is a perfect Old Navy. Even though the store size is technically smaller than the Fashion Valley location, this location usually has a much better selection that is better organized.
The employees are very friendly and helpful here. Never too…More »
12. Postal Annex
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 280-2380
Category:
Notaries
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
Hubby and I had to come here last week to get something notarized and sent off. They didn't give us any issues and the entire thing with smoothly. Neither of us had ever had to get anything notarized in the past, so we weren't sure how it worked.…More »
13. Sports Authority
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 295-1682
Category:
Sporting Goods
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
It was the night of the giant blackout in San Diego (Thursday 9/8/11), and somehow, all of our flashlights were broken. We were also hearing speculation of the water being unsanitary. So I decided to venture out of the house to try to find an open…More »
14. Target
This is a big big big big big giant Target. There are two levels! How crazy! And they even have a grocery section! I love it.
When the grocery section first opened, it was DIRT cheap. The prices have gone up a bit, but it's still nice and very…More »
15. Benihana
Oh, Benihana. You have always been one of my favorites. I LOVE the show that the chefs put on in the middle of your table! Unfortunately, the restaurant I once loved has gone far down in quality.
I think most of us know what Benihana is, so I won't…More »
16. Fashion Valley
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 688-9113
Category:
Shopping Centers
Neighbourhood: Linda Vista
I never thought about reviewing this mall until last night.. and it took me a little bit to think about exactly what I needed to write in my review.
I'm not normally a big fan of malls. And that stays constant here at Fashion Valley. Every time I'm…More »
17. Fuddruckers
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 299-2270
Category:
Burgers
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
My favorite part of Fuddrucker's has always been the condiment bar. I LOVE the enormous amounts of pickles and cheese.. maybe I'm weird, but I love getting a grilled cheese sandwich with fries, a ton of pickles, and a ton of cheese sauce and it's…More »
18. Subway
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 858-1473
Category:
Sandwiches
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
I have always disliked Subway. It's not really "fresh" and usually, the "sandwich artists" are stoned.
Not this Subway! I came in here last week to grab a snack after grocery shopping. Nobody was stoned! It was a miracle! And they were actually…More »
19. Pet People
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 291-7223
Category:
Pet Stores
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
I'm going to give Pet People 3 stars. We recently got a Siamese Snowshoe mix kitten. He's the sweetest little guy ever, so naturally, we want to spoil him! And Pet People is the closest pet store to our home. So, we have gone there a few times to…More »
20. Petco
It's a Petco. There's a large selection of cat and dog items, and also a nice selection of reptile equipment, fishies, etc. I haven't needed to go to Petco in a long time, but I recently got a kitten, so it was the place to be. I rarely go to the…More »
21. Burger King
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 543-0224
A lot of people think that it's silly to review fast food on Yelp. But when I'm out & about and need something to drink or a small snack to hold me over, I check Yelp to find the best place in the area, especially when I'm not familiar with where…More »
22. In Cahoots
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 291-8635
Categories:
Bars,
Dance Clubs
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
I don't really like this place. It's filled with wannabe cowboys and old people trying to out-drink the wannabe cowboys.. but I figure that it still deserves a detailed review.
I arrived here on a Friday evening around 9:30 PM. It was pretty empty…More »
23. Costco
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 358-4000
Category:
Wholesale Stores
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
This place is ridiculous. Everyone knows that Costco is a huge warehouse filled with giant packages of food, cleaning supplies, furniture, and just about everything else that you can think of.
Coming here on Sunday is like asking for black and blue…More »
24. McDonald's
San Diego, CA 92108

Category:
Fast Food
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
I don't go inside at McDonald's. So this review is only for the drive-thru at this location:
They have a hard time getting drive-thru orders correct at this McDonald's. I don't know why, but they don't understand what "no meat" means. See, if…More »
25. Taco Bell
I live in San Diego. I live 30 minutes from Mexico. I have about 10 REAL taco shops within a 5 minute drive of my house. There is no reason for me to go to Taco Bell. But I do. I have, and I probably will continue to come here. I don't know…More »
26. Daphne's California Greek
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 260-1679
Categories:
Mediterranean,
Greek
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
This is so sad. I used to really love Daphne's back when the service was quick and the menu was easy. Now that they've changed their entire brand, I'm not such a fan.
I came here this week with my hubby to grab him something to eat. We got there…More »
27. Mission Valley Chevron
This place is the worst gas station ever. It's the closest one to my apartment, but it's always incredibly busy. The lot that it's in is insanely small, and it's really hard to maneuver around it to find an open pump. People are like wild animals…More »
28. P.F. Chang's China Bistro
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 260-8484
Categories:
Chinese,
Asian Fusion,
Gluten-Free
Neighbourhood: Linda Vista
I really like PF Chang's. I really do. But today really ruined it for me.
Hubby and I got there around 11:45, and were seated right away. It wasn't too busy, but there were other diners. It took around 10 minutes for our waiter to come and…More »
29. Hot Dog on a Stick
San Diego, CA 92108
I like that they have veggie dogs on a stick here as well as regular hot dogs. They even have cheese on a stick and funnel cake sticks. However, it's about $9 for a combo of a corn dog, a small amount of fries, and a lemonade. Pretty pricey for…More »
30. Pick Up Stix
I used to love eating at Pick Up Stix until just recently. They used to put out great high value coupons, often BOGO free entree coupons. Hubby and I would be able to go all out for under $20, which was a great value. The food isn't super high…More »

San Diego, CA 92101
(619) 231-7154
Categories:
Women's Clothing,
Men's Clothing,
Children's Clothing
Neighbourhood: Downtown
Came here to walk around and do some shopping after eating dinner over at The Yard House with a friend.
I really like Ross stores, even though they are all completely unorganized and I usually end up with bruised toes after getting stepped on and ran…More »
32. Ruby's Diner
I've eaten here twice. The first time, I had a pretty decent experience. The second time, we ended up feeling really sick after eating the food. We didn't have food poisoning.. we just didn't feel good. The food wasn't that great in general and…More »
33. Ultrastar Mission Valley Theaters
Yuck! I went on a movie date here with my hubby because we got a coupon for admission at the price they charge for children. So we figured, why not try it?
Worst experience I've had in a long time. We went inside and seriously thought that we just…More »
34. Best Buy
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 574-1076
Categories:
IT Services & Computer Repair,
Computers,
Car Stereo Installation
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
I came in here last week to purchase a cord to hook my printer up to my laptop. I couldn't find anyone to help me figure out exactly what I needed, so I went over to the laptop area and started playing with the laptops, trying to look like I was…More »
35. Cold Stone Creamery
San Diego, CA 92108
(619) 521-6794
Category:
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt
Neighbourhood: Mission Valley
I can't stand this Cold Stone location. As much as I adore Cold Stone's delicious ice cream (my favorite is cake batter with sprinkles, white chocolate chips, and marshmallows mixed in..), the people who work at this location are buffoons. Is there…More »
