Delicious food. If you want the best burger in town- look no further than here. The garlic fries are top notch and the variety of beer is unequaled. Do yourself a favor and take the drive South to Chula Vista- you will not regret it- your welcome

Tuesday special; 4 burgers and fries for $39! Great local place for beer and burgers. 2 outdoor patios make it family friendly. Order at the counter. Our runner was amazing in getting us everything we needed, when delivering our order to the table. However- the wait time for burger seemed long. They must be cooked to order! Very flavorful burger and just the right size to fill you up. Pastrami sandwich was loaded with meat. Yummy aoili sauce available and dont miss the large order of GARLIC fries!

Went to the Balboa for the first time yesterday for lunch during the Chula Vista Lemon Fest. Pretty nice locally owned bar. Really pleased with their Original Balboa Burger which cost $12.55. It’s made up of lettuce, tomato, onion, American cheese, and housemade zesty aioli. Very good burger! I look forward to stopping by there again to try the rest of their menu

Had to try this place out after all the hype. Unfortunately for me the food itself was very tasteless. The patty itself did not have much flavor at all. The garlic fries all you tasted was garlic could have used a hint of salt. The beer was delicious very nice establishment. Just lacking some flavor!

Stopped by for some burgers as I recently decided I would search for the best burger in San Diego…. The environment and service are definitely the standouts at this establishment. Everyone was very helpful and friendly and that always makes for a good experience. The food on the other hand was disappointing. I forgot the names but we ordered a western bacon burger, a double stacked burger and a single order of salt and pepper fries. Both looked absolutely delicious when they were brought out… Unfortunately there was very little flavor in both of them. The highlight of the meal would probably be the salt and pepper fries, although they were slightly oversalted. Overall, a pleasant experience in terms of the environment and staff but will not be returning because of the disappointing food.

I am loving this place. It’s clean, it doesn’t smell, the ambiance is nice and relaxed. The low lighting, dark furniture, comfy chairs, and good music make it super inviting. The staff is great, helpful and friendly. Service is quick, and the food is delicious! The beer selection is great, too. Something for everyone. This was Hands down one of the best burgers I’ve had. And… they’re super pet friendly. Definitely recommend.

Great, relaxing, and spacious. Great tasting burgers, and a decent number of options for beer. The outside could do with a bit of music, but then again, today was a very gloomy and slightly rainy day.

A friend and I went there for the first time. The service is great, everyone was cordial and helpful and very friendly. The food was great and the beer as well. We had the Balboa burger and the Mocha something stout beer. We enjoyed great food and great conversation. We stayed there for a while, till they started picking everything up and the staff didn’t once push us to leave or bother us for staying so long. Great place, will definitely be going back!

Took the family here on a Friday evening, and really enjoyed it. Burgers were yummy and the beers and ciders were delicious. They have board games, a DJ and some free Padres swag for the win. It was an amazing family outing, and I highly recommend this place.
