Reviews for Craft Kitchen in La Mesa, CA
As always, the staff was friendly and helpful. They're chicken strips and chicken sandwiches are super tasty. The carnitas fries... are amazing! They have oysters in the half shell on weekends which go great with their awesome list of beers on tap. Read more
First time going with my wife yesterday. Staff was very friendly and the place had a nice,laid back vibe for a Friday night.... Crowd was mixed with people enjoying the plethora of beer on tap along with families with kids here and there so it is a family-friendly place. I had the burger, wife had the pastrami sandwich, truffle fries, and we had the tuna car-paccio as anappetizer- everything we had was delicious and did not lack in quality (grass fed beef is always a +). Menu had a good varietyof foods and many drinks/beers to choose from. This place is a gem in La Mesa and thankfully just a few minutes from the house!Will be bringing my family back here in the future for sure. Read more
Overall disappointing. I have given this place many tries due to its proximity to my work and the convenience of pickup, and... have tried about half the menu at this point. I can say that I?ve been consistently underwhelmed by the quality of the food.It?s overpriced and just kinda meh. For today?s order, the vegan sandwich was extremely salty and the side of fries were overlyseasoned and soggy. This has been par for the course for my orders here. The bright spot of this place is the speed of preparingpickup orders and probably the beer, though I?ve not tried it myself. Read more
First time here. Food was good. Not busy at all on a Sunday afternoon. Got the bacon mac and cheese, and burger. Plus 2 beers.... I'll definitely be back. Read more
Super fun time celebrating Father's Day at Craft Kitchen over yummy Sunday brunch! Staff is welcoming and service was terrific.
Terrific beer selection, and some of the best bar food in San Diego. I highly recommend getting the pulled pork. 4/5 stars... only because I still need to try all the food. Will be back! Read more
Great spot to pop in for a pint, or 2. They re-fill growlers for your to-go beer. Awesome selection of local San Diego Brews.... They also have Pliny the Elder on TAP. Didn't try the food, but the plates coming out the kitchen, looked AMAZING. SERVICE WASGREAT. MUST GO, WILL GO AGAIN. ????? Read more
Food used to be better. Prices went up, but they have everywhere. Presentation went down hill, chicken strips are over cooked... and devoid of any seasoning. Fries used to be the best part, but they changed those too and the replacement ones are blah. Beencoming here for over 4 years, even during covid and personally don't drink, but my husband does and it would be nice if the foodwas better. Read more
