High Dive Bar And Grill

directly off Morena Blvd is a dive bar that has elevated in class over the years.. pandemic did this place some good and allowed them to expand into another patio area which keeps it from feeling too crowded.There's a solid menu of American food like burgers, melts, and chicken teddies, plus a good brunch menu on weekends!I got the spicy Reed burger which has a "jalapeño popper patty" on top of the beef patty - guys, it's a deep fried jalapeño and cream cheese mixture... it was amazing! it added a bit of crunch, cream, and spice. It really elevated the flavor (and my cholesterol lol). Thankfully I could swap the fries for a salad and that made me feel less guilty for eating the burger.Stop by for a good beer selection, strong drinks, and really good food!

High Dive in San Diego is an iconic bar that truly captures the beach vibe, making it a perfect spot to unwind and soak in the coastal atmosphere. The location is unbeatable, with views that instantly put you in a relaxed, beachy state of mind.However, my recent experience was a bit of a letdown. I had to give it a 3-star rating because the roll for my sandwich was a little stale, which detracted from the overall taste. Additionally, my onion rings were served cold, which was quite disappointing.Despite these issues, High Dive still holds a special charm, and with a few improvements in the food quality, it could easily earn a higher rating. Here's hoping for a better experience next time!

I've heard good things about the High Dive and finally found time to get there with a friend. SDSU was playing, so it was pretty busy but not overly crazy. We shared the Bavarian pretzel, which was delicious as were the fish tacos my friend ordered. My Chicken Tenders on the other hand were not very good at all. The batter had far too much flour and they were so extremely dense, they just were not good at all. Why the 1 Star review? Service! I ate 1/2 of one tender and set the plate to the side of the table. The waitress took my plate ... no question as to if I liked it or not. When she came by again, I did bring up the fact that they were not good. She apologized but there was no offer to make it right, she didn't ask if I wanted something else instead ... nothing. My friend gave his credit card to settle up and guess what was on the bill!?! Yup, the chicken tenders. That's why a 1-star review. Don't charge people for bad food that they didn't like or eat!!!

I think this is a 2 star place. It's not my jam. But from what I thought I was gonna see to what I experienced. I'm okay giving it a 3 star. This place is kinda in the middle of nowhere. It's not well lit. It's easy to miss. I feel like you gotta know somebody who knows about this place in order to end up here. I got the vibe that a lot of locals go here. The staff are super inviting and knew that we were new here. The patrons were okay. Some odd looks and some warm smiles. Hit or miss. There is an outdoor patio that shuts down around 10pm on the Saturday night we went (probably due to liquor license). But there is another enclosed outside area that keeps going until the bar closes down. And of course there is an inside area. I've also come here on a Friday night as well as Saturday and it was packed up until 10pm and then everyone sort of cleared out. I came here for drinks and food. Had the Chicago Spicy Beef (which isn't spicy at all). Buffalo wings. Gorgonzola burger. Onion rings. Loaded fries. And of course beer! The Gorgonzola burger was the best thing I had by far. I love wings and the moment I got it, I knew I was going to be disappointed. It would probably be good for those who aren't picky with their wings / have a high standard. The fries were decent. I had the Eppig 10:45 which was meh and the White Dog IPA which was delicious. I hate IPAs but this one was the best one I've had by far. I honestly think if the staff wasn't friendly then it would have been a 1 maybe 2 star place. I'm giving this place a 3 star because they were so nice and the burger was delish. I could see myself coming back again Saturday after 930pm to have a little bit of that rowdiness and energy but then toward the end of that, when it clears out, I can have a more intimate bar experience.

Great place to hang out, have a few drinks, and enjoy the delicious food. I was pleasantly surprised that the food was on point because a lot of times bar food is MEH. I would definitely come back. Kuddos to our waitress who was attentive and welcoming

I got the high dive burger with fries. You can get a soup or salad at no extra cost. The burger was huge and the fries were truly delicious. Has seating inside and outside, which both have tv screens. Feel free to take your pup here! The staff were all super friendly. The only thing was that the Coke was flat. I find this typical with many bar/restaurants as usually the Coke is mixed with liquor where you can't tell

High dive has been a reliable bay park spot for a long time now, and it's always a decent choice! They have a great trivia night, fun staff, plenty of seating, and a decent amount of street parking. It's typical bar food with generous portions and reasonable prices. The loaded fries were huge and we added the meat to make it a bit heavier as an app. Lots of IPAs on tap, and decent cocktails too. TLDR; standard reliable bar fare, friendly staff, great trivia night!

Good food and service and regulars and guests are treated well. Fun place to hang out and watch a game and enjoy good food (except for the coffee). The Loco Moco was surprisingly tasty for a bar & grill and all the breakfast plates I saw looked delicious. My friends are regulars and enjoy their meals every time. Indoor and outdoor seating and it can get a little loud once the place fills up.

I came here during the afternoon with a group of friends specifically because it was advertised as a Dive Bar with class. We had a great time. The food was really good. My friends were raving about the birria. $5 beers were good, too!
