BBQ House Bar & Grill 5025 Newport Avenue, San Diego, CA 92107

"I tried BBQ House OB’s new Creamy Tomato Basil soup served with crostini. Hands down ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely PHENOMENAL!!’ I tried a sneak peak during the restaurant walk and been waiting ever since to get a full bowl. I can’t rave enough about this soup and it’s perfect timing because we are in soup season. I’d suggest definitely adding some additional crostini. I’m just going to say it again… this soup is PHENOMENAL!!!"

"Delicious and hearty place to stop for a drink or bite to eat. We have been coming here for 11 years before it was remodeled into a more modern sports bar and grill, but the food itself has never changed. We always get the 3 protein platter with 2 sides and you get heaps of delicious, smokey, and juicy meat. You can choose mild or spicy bbq sauce or ask for sauce on the side. Their onion rings are coated with a crispy panko coating and their jalapeño poppers are coated the same and are fried to a perfect golden-brown with the perfect amount of spiciness and cheesiness. They have a full bar and are dog friendly with 2 patios. This place offers a kids menu and also a doggy meal. Just a quick stroll away from the waterfront, this place is a must visit destination if you are looking for a fulfilling meal."

"We loved the atmosphere. Sitting on patio just cool enough to have the heater on. Service was pretty good. Good choices of beers. Few signature cocktails. Wife had the Creamsicle, said it was more close to orange juice. I got the Buenaveza Mexican Lager. They salted the rim per my request (the best way to drink Mexican lager). Beer was good. Had nice fresh taste. Food came out quickly. Ordered 2 meat combo with onion rings and bourbon bacon burger with fries. All summed up with one word, underwhelming. The brisket and ribs had zero smoke flavor and the burger was a frozen patty with no seasoning. Seriously there was no love in the food. For 90 bucks w/tip I expected a lot better."

"Fantastic place for us to eat, the food was great. Brynna was an amazing waitress and made sure we were taken care of. The Mac and cheese was the best we’ve ever had, and the game was easy to watch and hear. The food came quick as well. Very professional yet laid back environment."
