I am disgusted at this place. We actually got up and left!
We went there on a Thursday at around 11:30am. We were seated immediately and then completely ignored for 15-20 minutes. Others were also seated and orders taken. We were never even provided water. We saw 3 waiters go by several times and not one time were we ever acknowledged.
Very few times have I EVER gotten up and left a restaurant. I will NEVER go back here. We ended up walking to Board & Brew instead.

This place is the best.
Nice and large. Offers a ton of classes. Super friendly staff.
If you are not used to a gym like this (more mma oriented rather than a LA Fitness or something) and feel intimidated initially I encourage you to try it a few times as it really is an awesome place. I've been going there for around 7 months and everyone I've interacted with is always super helpful and very nice.
Their monthly membership does get a little pricey but if you are planning on being pretty dedicated it is totally worth the cost. If you are someone who just goes to the gym once a week then this may not be the best choice for you.. If you are looking to change that and go several times a week I feel this place will bring that out in you. :)
Their classes offer great ways to stay fit while interacting with other people instead of running on a treadmill in a solitary bubble.
Definitely go down and check out what they are about. You won't be disappointed!

Found this place just looking at some of the highest rated places in Yelp while I was looking for something new to try.
We went there on a Friday night around 8 and had to wait around 30 minutes. They do take reservations so if you have plans after dinner you may want to consider calling ahead. :)
My friend and I were pretty new to this so we ordered off their American list on the wall. The beef and chicken were awesome. We also tried the bacon wrapped asparagus which was pretty yummy.
There was a little bit of a language barrier with our server since we had some questions about the menu but another employee came out to answer for us after a few minutes. :)
This seems like a great place to either go all out and get tons of food OR eat light and save room for a yummy dessert elsewhere. :) While this may not end up in my regular restaurant rotation I would still definitely go back!

Extraordinary Desserts beats this place in every aspect.
Super overpriced for the portions.
Decor and general vibe of the place is stale and and uninviting.
I went with my friend and we both ordered a different chocolate dessert to share... and they both tasted the exact same. The only difference I noticed was one was a half circle and the other a cylinder in shape. Even tho both were chocolate there should have been a distinct difference in taste between the two. I know I can tell the difference between the ones at Extraordinary Desserts.
Their latte was ok but I found myself wishing I had just gone to a Starbucks as it would have been more a more enjoyable experience!

I don't think anyone really likes going to the dentist but since you SHOULD go regularly... This is a great place to check out.
I've been going there over 3 years now and they do an excellent job every time. Their hygienists are always pleasant and gentle (as gentle as anyone can be with sharp metal objects anyways...). They are efficient and quick too so I'm not wasting half my day waiting around.
I've had both Steven and Bridget do my dental work there and again both are excellent. I've never felt anything uncomfortable when getting a cavity filled. They are always very informative with what's going on when they are working so you aren't just sitting there wondering. They also have a nice selection of movies if you choose to use the headphones and zone out during the process.
I see myself continuing to go to them for as long as I am in this area.

Cute little bead store right off the 15. Tons of stuff to choose from. I found a decent selection of natural beads for the type of jewelry I make. They even had some strands of snake vertebrae. I did wish they had some more wood beads.
You can obviously find some better deals online but I'd rather actually see what I am buying and it's worth paying a little bit more for that with certain items. All the employees there were very helpful and gave me some ideas for a project I was trying.
I'll be a repeat customer there for sure.

Nice middle ground between something like Ikea and Pier 1 in both price and style. It has some really great accent pieces to liven your place up at an affordable rate. Their furniture is pretty decent quality and has nice character. They have a good variety of dish ware too.
You can mix and match all kinds of stuff from there and it all seems to work well together. I just recently got some new lamps, rug, and blinds that give my place some cool personality. And it's nice to have some cash left over (and not look like an Ikea catalog).
Service is a little slow for the larger items. In general it's pretty easy to jump in, grab some small stuff, and get out quickly. For the most part the people there are nice tho I've run into some having a bad day I guess when trying to exchange and item.
Definitely worth checking out.

White Dragon Martial Arts
Category: Martial Arts
Neighborhood: Mira Mesa
White Dragon is a amazing martial arts school with several locations around San Diego.
They offer Kung Fu, Tai Chi, and many other classes. All their instructors are very well trained and are consistent with what gets taught to each student. They are also very willing to answer any questions you have outside of your lessons.
It is a nice and safe environment that is geared towards what YOU want out of martial arts... Whether it be fitness, self-defense, combative sports, etc. They also have a wide range of skill levels there so there is something for everyone.
I go to the studio in Mira Mesa. It is always very clean and organized and has a decent amount of space to practice your own stuff when you are not in a group class or private lesson.
It's a really nice place to get started in martial arts. They have an awesome introduction system so you can try it out before signing up. So go give it a shot! :)

Great salon. I go to Louanne. I've followed her to 3 different salons since I've been in San Diego. She does a fantastic job and is as quick as possible. I've never disliked anything she's done. In fact, I trust her so much I just tell her to try whatever now since I feel she has a great sense of what will work on me.
The salon location is very convenient and has ample free parking. Very nice looking inside and awesome people.

Went here as a group of 6 on a Saturday night. I've never been to a tapas place before. It was a really fun experience. We ordered paella which was AWESOME (tho I wouldn't have been opposed to the shrimps having their heads removed...). These are HUGE. We ordered the paella for 2 and like 7 tapas and that was more than enough for the 6 of us.
It wasn't crazy busy either, which I personally like. It had a lot of people but it wasn't as obnoxious as I was expecting for a weekend. Huge plus.
Definitely a fun group place to try out several foods. :)
