Very dog-friendly! They got my pups a water bowl and we were good to be inside. Atmosphere is awesome — service too. Margaritas were good but food was only so-so — I’m probably biased about ceviche, but I just didn’t like the seasoning — and there were more tomatoes than fish in it

We went here for our 5th wedding Anniversary which happened to be on New Years Eve. The bartenders were so much fun. The atmosphere was very chilled. We had a wonderful time.

I rarely visit the beach, but if I do visit PB, this is a good stop. I’d recommend this as a stop for any friends visiting that want to go to the beach.
The happy hour is ideal, because beach prices can be tough. Food is great, drinks are cold, and the staff is friendly!

This place is absolutely doing it right. Good quality food excellent atmosphere nice and clean service is super fast. Shout out to Matthew our server. The menu had a lot of good options at a good value. came in on a Sunday afternoon and there were a lot of tables available. I enjoyed the ambience. The food was very fresh. I will say the mahi-mahi was a little bit dry. I would definitely go back. I can’t give five stars unfortunately because they’ve got that 4% service charge snuck in at the bottom of the menu that they apply to every bill. That’s extremely low class and scummy behavior by the business. Adjust your menu prices accordingly to pay your employees don’t try and trick customers. READ YOUR BILL.

This place is 5 stars for so many reasons – the atmosphere is great (perfect for padres games!), the staff is so friendly and personable, and the food and drinks are perfect. I had the carne asada and chicken tacos as well as queso and a margarita and all were great. Our larger group had such a great time getting to know the staff and loved learning about the history of Guava as well. Absolutely will be back!

What an amazing experience! We came to Guava Beach as a party of 12 for dinner and had a great time. The service was fantastic and helped us to pick a few shared appetizers. We loved the queso and ceviche as well as (something they are know for) the margaritas.
The appetizers were filling but most people had the tacos for dinner. I had the harvest veggie dish and was surprised by how many options there were for vegetarians.
This spot has been recently renovated and is a great friendly and approachable spot for locals and tourists alike to grab an easy meal, enjoy a nice environment and watch some sports (or just hangout!)

Food was awesome. Was staying across the street for the weekend and had a gift card for this place. I had the mahi mahi tacos and my husband had the coconut crusted mahi mahi sandwich with fries. Atmosphere and food was great however the server/bartender who was a female was very stuck up and kind of rude. Recommended for a quick bite to eat.

We stopped in for a late lunch/early dinner one day on our trip in San Diego. My son noticed the Minnesota Wild & Vikings flags hanging out front so we had to check it out (being from MN ourselves). Service was good, food was outstanding, and the owner stopped over to chat with us and shared some photos from Vikings events from this past season. We definitely want to return and catch a game here with the other Vikings fans!
I recommend the BBQ Pulled Pork sandwich- the slaw is great, and get the tots 🙂

Guava Beach Bar in Mission Beach is one of the best spots in San Diego for a laid-back, fun night. The margaritas are top-tier — strong, refreshing, and full of flavor. Tons of great options from classic to spicy to fruity.
The staff is super friendly, and Ben and nick Mike in particular made the experience even better. Chill, professional, and just a great energy behind the bar — he really adds to the good vibes.
Food’s legit too (grab the tacos!). Awesome beachy atmosphere with great music and cool people. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re anywhere near Mission.
