This was my first time here, invited by friends. There was a band playing mostly 70s and 80s dance music, and they were pretty good. Lots of people dancing tonight, appeared to be mostly 50s – 70s crowd and they were having fun. The dance floor was packed most of the time.

I will say that I loved the ambiance of this place.

Came with my friends and we enjoyed so much fun laughing and sharing.

They have a large outside patio. It was a lovely day.

I enjoyed a turkey sandwich with Avocado. I loved their season fries.
Oh, their colorful nachos and nice fresh salsa was very delightful!

My friends all loved their dishes!

The facility is wonderful, with lots of tables to choose from and live rockin’ dance music on Sunday. Street parking is available closeby. The service was terrible. I entered at noon, and after waving at the rare waitress, received a menu 30 minutes later. My order was taken after another 30 minutes. When my order finally arrived, I looked at my watch – it was 1:47pm. I ordered a half tuna sandwich w/onion soup, and a bottle of merlot to share with friends. I received a half turkey sandwich, and bottle of cab. Decided not to ask for order to be corrected, to avoid another huge delay. More waitstaff are needed for this large estaablishment.

Atmosphere, food and entertainment are good. Could be a five if they had more help. Service is slow to none existent, I am not slamming the servers they are great. But they do not have enough servers. We come here 2 to 3 times a month for the food and entertainment. Always have to wait and always have to chase down someone to get porper service.

The food is great, Service is slow. Servers are NOT personalable! It’s not like they are too busy during the Car-show. But all in all, food is great. Atmosphere is great. You get a great view of the Promenade. This place does have Happy Hour. And live music on Friday and Saturday nights. There is an area dancing. Indoor dining as well as patio dining

Worst service ever. How do you have a band playing and have maybe 3 people working including the bartender. There should have been a lot more staff at the restaurant. I ordered food and finally an hour later I told them just to forget my order and apparently someone else got my order. No one tried to rectify it and didn’t even try to see if I needed anything else. The other person at my table finally got their food and it was cold. Couldn’t get a drink. Had to go to the bar. Im not one usually to do reviews but this was probably the worst place I’ve been to in a long time.

We spent the night at the Courtyard hotel and, while parking the car, noticed a sign on the side of a nearby building that said something about a bar and grill. We decided to walk over and check it out, although we weren’t wanting bar food very bad. The complete menu didn’t reflect a lot of bar food and we ordered Mahi Mahi. It was wonderful. The waiter was personable and informative about El Cajon. Should we ever pass through El Cajon again, we’d definitely go back.

Been a few years since eating here. Last time was outside. The bar is super cool, large selection of spirits and plenty of TVs!

The mushroom swiss burger was so flavorful, and the onion rings very crispy! Definitely recommend checking this place out!

We got to restaurant at 5:50pm. Wasn’t too crowded. Waitress took our drink order, we got our drinks then we didn’t see her again for a half hour! My husband had to go ask someone to come take our order. They contacted our waitress and she came by and said she’d be right back. When she finally came to take our order we told her we had a concert that was starting soon and she told us we’d better just order appetizers! We went down the list with her and she pointed out the ones that could be cooked the quickest. We’ll never come back.

Our server was top notch, food wasn’t bad. I recommend the carnitas. We sat outside and the outside was nice and weather was perfect. I’d defile go back. The margarita was a little too stiff for my sister in law, but I guess that’s a good problem to have
