Eastbound Bar and Grill has some delicious food! My friend and I tried two different burgers, which were tasty. The fries were crispy and paired well with the burgers. The menu item that really stood out was the chipotle chicken flat bread pizza. Wow, it's probably the best flat bread pizza I have had in San Diego! Every bite was spicy, buttery, and crunchy. The decor inside the restaurant is fun and lively. To top it off, our server was great! We will be back here. Please stop by and order the flatbread. Eat up!!!
One of my favorite bar/restaurants anywhere. The atmosphere is always lively. The service and food are always outstanding and prices/portions cannot be beat
Best food and service. Wish they had better ranch and blue cheese, but everything else was perfect. Got the wings, fire crackers, salad, flat bread, and pozole. All great
My friends and I had lunch at Eastbound Bar and Grill today and it was really good. I had the Eastbounder burger with a side of onion rings. I’m an onion ring lover, so I couldn’t wait to dig into those things. They had a nice crispy crust that had good flavor. And they were served hot. I tend to eat my onion rings first because if they sit, they get soggy and slightly greasy, so as I ate these, I realized there’s a lot of them and I figured if I eat all these onion rings, there’s no way I’m going to eat that hamburger. So the hamburger became my evening meal. Judging the quality of a hamburger that has sat around for a couple of hours wouldn’t be fair, but even though it sat around for a couple of hours, I thoroughly enjoyed it. And it’s a big burger, half pound, that was slightly pink, juicy and done just right. Our server was prompt and friendly, and the ambience was upbeat and a tribute to the country and western theme of Lakeside.
Friendly neighborhood spot with tasty bar food and vegetarian options. The service was EXCELLENT. Waitress asked our names and introduced herself and the other server. They checked on us and filled our glasses 4 times. Country music videos playing on tv with sports channels muted in the background. Cute small town country vibe. Fun relaxing neighborhood hangout.
Awesome neighborhood bar, Friendly staff and food is BOMB! Wide selection of beers and liquors. Family kid, friendly great place to watch sports!
Service is blended... Inside the restaurant, the servers are amazing. Very attentive and patient. The music can get a bit loud inside, but it's very clean and fun. Outside- it's self serve, and food is delivered to you. The food runners are not really attentive at all, and since you don't have a server, you're kinda on your own (which I think it's fair to be expected). But there is a bar outside so the bartender can help with everything you may need. So that was nice to have, instead of going inside for extras we needed. The outdoor area is really chill. There's space for little ones to run, picnic tables as well as high top and regular tables, and cute sitting benches. It's well decorated and the ambience is relaxed. Tvs were playing 90s music videos so that was fun. There are also a few arcade games to entertain the kids. The food is always good, nothing over the top but good bar food. I like the wedge salad and hubs likes the burgers. Overall it's an enjoyable experience!
Tanner was a phenomenal server, very personable and super attentive to us even though the bar was packed for the USA World Cup game. We visited on our first night from out of state and he already made us want to come back, had a great time!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of our favorite local spots to take the family! Great food, awesome atmosphere, and the outdoor area in the back is perfect for kids to run around and play while the adults relax. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. If you stop by on a Tuesday, don’t miss their massive $20 margarita… definitely worth it! Highly recommend for a fun family night out.
OMG... May be the top few best burgers ive ever had....Keep your expectations in the right place here and you may exactly what anyone would want from a local family friendly bar and grill. A bit country, noisy, and a goto for the community. You'll likely support a local school team selling cookies to raise money just out front... drinks came out right away...the food was fresh and came out hot and exactly as ordered... the service was great(Thanks Mimi) and staff was friendly and accommodating. Drinks were just right and prices are very reasonable. Great spot... I'm sure they may have bad days... but not that day. My wife and I were near by and she said years ago it was the best spot.... and seems to still be. On the way to the car...go get an amazing donut from Mary's across the way. My cardiologist is going to kill me. Can't wait to go again.
