Hob Nob Hill

I was not expecting such a clean and fancy looking diner when I came here for brunch. It definitely has a sense of class to it with the decor and a bit of a 1920s intro look to it as well. It very much impressed me. I like it.Was dining here with a couple friends before we headed off to the airport. Honestly, it's a great spot to hit up before taking off in my opinion. We ended up sitting at a booth which seemed pretty small for 3, but it worked out just fine. It was just a bit annoying being the guy stuck in the middle.Menu was pretty large for breakfast and brunch and had to take a bit of time to decide what to get. A lot of egg items which I appreciate, but I wanted to get something not too common that I wouldn't normally find as an out-of-towner.So I ended up getting the Chorizo Scrambled and it was a mighty fine choice. Added a bit of hot sauce to give it more kick to it and it was just fantastic. Great meal. Wasn't too much, wasn't too little. It was just right for me. It came with potato hash, some beans, and some tortilla. I completely cleaned the plate. A solid meal!I think I might make it a routine to stop by every time I'm in the area.

Came here for breakfast and it was pretty underwhelming. Service was ok, the staff was friendly enough but not overly conversational. The restaurant was clean and the decor was modern and well laid out. I ordered a breakfast burrito. It was slightly larger than the size of my hand. It tasted ok, there wasn't a ton of flavor. The beans on the side tasted like chemicals and seemed to be from a can. Overall I paid $18 for a breakfast meal and felt like paying half that would've been more appropriate. I probably won't be back here and would recommend other places.

Hob Nob is open later than most restaurants in the area, so it's great to have as an option for when you are craving a meal later at night. It's a big place with outdoor seating available. I also noticed that they had a water bowl for dogs outside so I would assume that they are dog friendly in their outside section of course. It's decorated like an upscale diner. I also noticed a plaque with Guy from the Food Network saying he ate there on one of the walls inside the restaurant. Parking is street only but easy to find a spot, especially later at night. TIP: be sure to use their late night menu when ordering later at night, as they don't offer their full menu late night. We ordered a late dinner to go and the food was decent. Not the best meal we've ever had, but it was much better than most of the open late fast food options. I had the BLT and the bacon was crispy and cooked perfectly. The fries were great. We felt that the coconut cream pie could have been more flavorful. We want to try their regular menu as well as eating at the restaurant, as take-out isn't always indicative of a restaurant's true potential. The friendly service we received was much appreciated, especially so close to their closing time.

This place might be the rarest of all things in San Diego. An up to date, legitimate, late night diner, with decent food, great staff and comfortable setting. This isn't a greasy spoon, remade dennys folks. It's also not a fusion of three continents four course meal with butter of rare unicorn belly. It's standard diner food, cooked well, with a good drink menu, in a setting that's fun, a staff that provides great service and an overall great price. Chicken Fried Steak.House Old Fashion.Meat LoafDecent Martini.You know, you don't expect much at midnight, in San Diego. But you get a lot here. It's unique enough to be San Diego, but right enough to be what you need. Bring family, bring out of town guest, a great place for those late evenings when you just need a comfortable place to eat good food.

Always a pleasure to come to such a staple. Today's coffee cake was strawberry and banana, one of their best in my opinion. Coffee, delicious. Food, well-made and generously portioned. I opted for the Greens & Things omelette, one of my personal favorites on the menu. My sister went for the quiche of the day: a bacon, spinach, avocado which she loved. Service was attentive and kind as always, Fabiola was fantastic. The ambience of this restaurant is always a positive experience and there's a reason it's a neighborhood favorite.

This was a nice place to catch a bite to eat. Their menu had a variety of items to choose from for any time of the day or week. We decided to come here after watching an episode of Guy Fieri's and tried their chicken and dumplings. The chicken and dumplings was very hearty and felt comforting to eat. The flavor was delicious and enhanced when we added a bit of black pepper. The dumpling was soft and pillowy, nice and light to eat. The included spinach salad with bacon and a vinegarette was delicious and refreshing. We also ordered the crab cake appetizer. It seemed a bit smaller than average, but inexpensive at $15. It had more filler than crab,slightly dry, but the delicious tartar sauce made up for it. The crab cake on its own tasted of a variety of herbs and spices. Our waiter was very nice, and checked in on us several times.

Hob Nob is a unique spot in Bankers Hill - one-part diner one-part grandma's kitchen, it's a great place for a homestyle meal. The menu is extensive with a capital E, and who doesn't love all day breakfast?We ordered the chicken n dumplings and chicken fried steak. Portions were generous and each came with the option of a soup or salad, rolls with butter, and some additional side orders. Our waitress had us hand-select our "chilled fork" for the salad which was a neat touch. The food came out quickly and is good for what it is - I'll be honest the chicken fried steak was one of the better ones I've tried.Loved the vibe. The decor is essentially 50s diner updated for the modern era, a nice tribute to the restaurant's roots. Bonus points for the Wizard of Oz decorations. We went on a Thursday night, so things were fairly slow but the service was attentive and efficient.

Great restaurant for lunch. Fabiola is very friendly, and the food was very tasty. Their bakery selection is amazing! Worth checking out in San Diego.

I picked this place to take an out of town friend because they had chilaquiles mixed with the red and green salsa as it should be! She went more classic with a waffle that was perhaps not mixed properly as the first waffle fell apart and the one served was not in its best shape either. She wished she'd had my chilaquiles! Loved the beautiful Wizard of Oz mural and the server was attentive!

Ordered one thing , got something else. Not sorry, whatever. Nothing new, oh well. We're just do busy to care.
