I was hired by Chili's to test the new menu items hosted in California only at this location. My instructions: "Please don't tell the Chili's staff about this exercise, since you are a "mystery shopper" and they don't even know you're coming!"
Appetizers: Loaded Nachos - loved it! High marks for presentation, taste and value. Highly recommended.
Soup: Smoky Black Bean Soup - not so much, just ok. Will not order again.
Sandwiches: Santa Fe chicken Wrap - not recommended. Pita wrap is wrong, chicken has too much smoky flavoring, lacks other ingredients needed to make up for the difference. Not recommended, order something else.
Salad: Asian Noodle Salad with Salmon - ok, could be split for two. Cajon coating on salmon does not work with this dish and was overdone. Will not order again.
Staff at this Chili's was super, excellent, especially Teresa, well done!!
Minus one star for being slightly overpriced but let's say 4 1/2 stars. I recommend this chain and this location.
I enjoyed the food very much, simple, good value, delicious. Staff is interesting, funny and provides good service. Highly recommended.

Funding support from the city of Chula Vista was lost in July '09. The membership costs are very reasonable and give the whole family access for a year. The staff is really working hard to make the center as interesting and fun as possible. I really enjoyed my visit, bought the membership and plan to visit often, love the bayfront trails. See you there!
Inside exhibits include a space capsule for children, air force uniforms, the nose of a WWII glider, WWII aircraft recognition models, a link trainer, aircraft engines, and the cockpits of a T-28, a T-37, and a F-100. Outside see over 20 planes including fighters, bombers and transports.
The museum website offers info on getting access to the base and direction to the museum. Highly recommended.

Eating here makes me think of the movie "Pulp Fiction", Big Kahuna Burger - This IS a Tasty Burger! Actually there really are 8 Big Kahuna Burger places, none near San Diego. Their motto at Big Kahuna Burger:

My wife and I love to go and split a tuna sandwich. It is convenient to CostCo and shopping in the area. The name above the front door is actually the "Little Fish Market." It's a smaller version of the Fish Market Restaurant chain, very much more casual. But the excellent values are still the same with the freshest fish in town. I also love the New England clam chowder. Service is very quick and professional. The pictures of fishing and other nautical decor make it a delight. Fresh fish are also available by the pound in the cabinet by the front door (see my uploaded picture). http://www.thefis...
No Lists
Walker hasn't made any lists yet.
Loaded baked potato soup (see pic): topped with applewood smoked bacon, cheddar and green onions, most excellent, reasonable price, try it!!
Beef Fajitas served with warm tortillas, house-made pico de gallo, cheese, guacamole, sour cream, rice and black beans (see pic): comes our sizzling on an individual grill plate, steam rising, tasty, delicious, recommended.
Staff is very nice, helpful and quick. Still 4 1/2 stars. Give them a try.
