The food is sooooo average and for the price you’d think it would be better! The service was subpar at best, save time and money and go somewhere else!

Came here before the padres game for happy hour with friends. We were excited about them having some fairly priced Toro. We were the first ones and they told us after our first order of toro and this other roll that they were sold out. They were also sold out of several drinks. Such a bummer!
