"Somewhat disappointing experience. I stopped in on a Sunday to pick up some espresso roast beans for home use. I saw the nearby unit was preparing to ship many packaged bags of coffee, but when I went into the coffee shop itself, I met a barista who didn’t know what type of roast the espresso beans were — the same ones he was using to make the drinks. I was open to suggestions but he kept going to the kitchen in the back to ask someone else for the answers and recommendations. In the end I found out there were -no- bags of espresso beans left for sale at the coffee shop. For fun I tried the orange ginger cold brew, which was sweet. It was tasty, like a chocolate orange, but didn’t seem to have any ginger flavor.I might try again to get beans since the roaster is so well-rated, but no luck the first time."

"I appreciate that they tell you which fish are wild caught versus farmed. I ordered the rock cod Cajun style with rice and a side of asparagus for extra . Fish was cooked well, not overdone and I loved all the extra lemon they give if you ask. However, the Cajun spice was not spicy at all despite having a chili pepper next to it on the menu. Of the three spears of asparagus they gave me, 1/3 of each spear was inedible and should have been cut off before cooking so it wasn’t worth paying extra for."

"It was just eaten at Morena blvd site in San Diego. The food is always excellent and the staff is very friendly from the time you go there until you go. They always come around and ask how the food is. The Californian is my new favorite sandwich. This place is a must try."

"It is a good place to have South Indian cuisine, there are many types of dosa available. We ordered filter coffee, Rava Dosa, Andhra Spicy Dosa, Tomato Uttapam, Ghee Dosa and Rava Kesari. Rava Dosa was a disappointment, although crispy was very hard to bite and we could feel rava in it. Rava Kesari was terrible as we had better Rava-Kesari from here before (does not know whether the quality they serve now degrades). I also felt the Ghee Dosa and Andhra spicy Dosa, although it was tasty, had too much ghee (maybe it depends on individual, but I don't like ghee so much that its drops of dosa). Uttapam was okay, no complaints. The Aloo masala (inside dosa) was Tasty, and I love the Chutneys and Sambhar here, this is strength. The filter coffee is also amazing. Prices are quite reasonable and there are plenty of parking spaces. I think they're pretty famous for their breakfast thaali that we had last time and it was really good."

"The Hawaiian burger was a mess, falling apart and swimming in a box soaked with what I can only assume was "teriyaki sauce." The other burger had toppings from the Hawaiian burger mixed in, and it was also sitting in some kind of sauce. What we thought was a dent in the burger turned out to be burnt cheese. The onion rings were greasy and falling apart, while the green bean tempura had many pieces that were overcooked. Overall, the flavor was disappointing at best. I've always loved Islands... why did you have to let us down like this?"
