Neighborhood Bar and Restaurant Brings More Live Music to the Gaslamp - Eater San Diego
"Gaslamp gastropub The Hopping Pig has been transformed into an unpretentious neighborhood bar helmed by a couple with strong local industry ties. The restaurant’s longtime manager and bartender, Jenna Elskamp, along with her husband Randy, a vet of Cantina Mayahuel, have modeled Métl Bar & Restaurant after the feel of their favorite bars; the new space is a comfortable, friendly hangout amidst the flashy downtown nightclubs that will regularly offer live music from a full spectrum of rock genres." - Candice Woo
