IB Forum Sports Bar & Grill

Had a few tasty drinks at the bar enjoyed some extra crispy fries with world class ketchup...played some jams on the jukebox & watched football...went across the street to soak up the ocean view...nice service & lil spot but bathrooms can be a wait at times.

Sooooooooo.......Yesterday, early evening I went to a local, rather popular sea side restaurant fer suppah and celebrations with Friends. (Fun times ) When questioned on how I wanted it cooked I ordered my burger well done only to be told by the waitress (nice Lady) that they do not take orders for well done and then She additionally added that I was ' funny' because I exclaimed 'what?' I am sure with a perplexed look on my face. No 'paying customer' we will not make food how You, again, 'paying customer' want it. We will only make it how we want to give it to You and You will take it. Had I not been with others I probably would have left. Why ask? It is not an unreasonable or odd request. People like their food how they like it. The opinion of any other is of no matter. Do they not have the time to cook more than medium well? Do they not wish to have content patrons who enjoy their food and will happily frequent their establishment? Is this company policy or cooks ego?

My meal was so delicious! Crab cakes were so sweet and the poached eggs cooked to perfection!My server was so kind and our food was out so quick! We have not been here since before the renovations and I am happy to see there is more seating now! Can't wait to come back! Thank you!

Vast selection of beers from blue moon to voodoo ranger to mango cart and modelo. Full bar and multiple beers to choose from. My party and I had the surf and turf potatoe skins, the chicken wings, and tried the jalapeño burger. Lost of room inside and outside to sit. Nice fire pit outside which would be good at night and great for game days. One of our silverware was dirty and the potatoe skins seemed a bit over cooked for my taste but other then that, everything was great. Place was packed and customer service was still good. Chicken wings were delicious and a must try.

The food was good, there are a lot of options too. We ended up getting wings and fries because it was a Wednesday and the wings were $1.25 each. It's a few steps from the beach and our server was super attentive and personable, I wish we could have caught his name because he definitely deserves recognition!

Kind of tough when you show up 20 min prior closing for a quick beer & check the place out. I thought cool sign says open. Then they turn off the open light. Disappointed, yes. I didn't feel like walking the Plank... This would've been my first visit... The location sign is what got my attention... Closing early killed it.

I've been to IB Forum twice now and am obsessed! My husband and I have recently discovered the Tijuana Estuary and really enjoy taking our pups for walks while doing some bird and wildlife watching. We live in Clairemont, so it's a good 30-minute drive, so we like to make a little afternoon out of it and it has become a sort of tradition to finish up our afternoon with lunch at IB Forum! The fact that it's "The most South Westerly Bar and Grill in the USA" is what originally attracted us to it, but now I love the vibe, food and atmosphere. Our first visit was on the 4th of July, so it was quite crowded. We had our pups so our only option was to sit in the small font patio area that overlooks the street and a tiny bit of water view. Our second time we were seated in the back patio with our pups and while I loved that patio overall, I think I surprisingly preferred the front for just my husband and I to people watch. However, the back patio has a large firepit table that seats about 9 people, and I definitely plan to keep that in mind for a larger party meal! The food is so delicious. Both times I ordered the Cobb Salad, sub bleu cheese for cheddar, and added Mahi Mahi. The salad is absolutely giant, so I'd suggest dressing on the side so that you can save the salad for later if necessary. Speaking of dressing, the ranch is creamy and delicious as well! We also shared an order of the fried zucchini and I kid you not, there were 3 full zucchini's cut in half, and they heated up so well in the air fryer the next day. I am a big fan and we have no issue driving out of our way to come here once in a while!

Great food and even better service almost mind reading!!! This place is an immediate favorite for Imperial Beach. Will come back for sure hope the wait staff still has roller skates!!!

Good Breakfasts on the weekend and good service . They have egg and omelets and breakfast burritos the place has patio and indoor sections .4 stars

While the food is basic mediocre, mexican lipstick on pig, the service is the absolute worst. If you're not POUNDING BEERS , you better serve yourself.
