We love SETs and are so grateful they moved to the neighborhood! I love their burgers and steak salad, and my kids love their children’s menu options. Their drinks are always good and the servers are so nice and welcoming. Oh and their live music nights are a blast! Highly recommend for families and couples. Thanks to the owner, Kevin, for all that you do for our San Elijo community!

Sitting outside, it was nice and calm and I was able to bring my dog – which is always a plus!

Wonderful experience. My bison burger was excellent and the rest had tacos they loved. Our waiter, Josh, helped with the menu and was very attentive. We will be back soon.

We were so pleased with our experience at SETS! We were a bit unsure of how it would be considering how new the restaurant is and how the current situation with jobs and the pandemic are still not ideal. We truly enjoyed our experience and are excited to return frequently!

Good service, expect loud if during football Sunday hours! Fries and tots were good, okay quinoa burger, sort of thin and mild flavors so I smothered it with ranch.

So many wonderful things to say about SETs. We eat here regularly and always enjoy the food, service is great, and it’s relaxed enough to have our energetic kids join us.

Our server was very sweet, however, she did not explain how the $9 burger special worked to us. On the table placard, it only reads Tuesday $9 burgers. It does not explain that this is a specific burger not any burger on the menu. This was not communicated to us by our server as you would expect a special would be. Additionally, burgers were okay, nothing special and definitely not worth the $18 price tag.

Nice place with plenty of seating tables and boothes. There is also bar area with many TVs. We got the Brussel sprouts as a starter. I got the short ribs sandwich “The DON” and my wife got the steak salad. The short ribs sandwich was really good. For drinks I got the Spicy Primavera and my wife got the Ranch Water. The Ranch water didn’t have much of a flavor. Overall great location, food and staff.

The brussel sprouts pretty amazing. Nice and crunchy. Well done. The Thai salmon salad was bland and very ordinary. The salmon needs to be blackened with some sort of heat or spices. I would have given this place a better rating had my salad been more than just kinda of blah .
