Queenstown Bistro @ UTC Mall

We saw the sign that said their wagu beef burger was voted the best in San Diego. We had to try it. It was delicious. Well worth the price. That was the best burger we have had in a while. 5 stars all around. We will definitely go there again every time we visit San Diego for Comic Con.

Ordered the chicken BLT. It was made with dark chicken meat which was dry. I was expecting white meat. Atmosphere was nice and prices were reasonable.

I wanted to try this place because I liked Dunedin (I believe they are sister restaurants). I ordered NZ Meat Pies, NZ sausage roll and NZ Chicken pot pie. The meat pies and sausage rolls were good. The chicken pot pie was salty but i liked the puff pastry. Overall It wasn’t as good as I expected. I returned a week later for happy hour. I’m sad they took NZ meat pies off the happy hour menu. Anyway, I ordered a pretzel, which was pretty good. The Wagyu burger and BLT sandwich were tasty. The potato wedges were not good at all. The red sangria was ok. I don’t think they worth the price I paid for. The guy who served us didn’t smile at all and was quite rude when I asked questions about the food and happy hour menu. He made me wouldn’t want to go back there. I would go back to Dunedin for my NZ cravings in the future.

A nice place to eat. The food was really good. We loved the NZ sausage rolls the most. The service was slow due to the bar tender being the only server working. Even though the food was good, we felt it was over priced.

If you're vegan and struggle to find tasty, wholesome food in San Diego, go to Queenstown in UTC/La Jolla and order the veggie wrap. O.M.G. Smooth and crunchy at the same time and my mouth did a happy dance! I was told not to say anything to the chef, but I don't care if his ego is the size of Montana. It.was.amazing.

Decided to have lunch here - was told it would be 10 minutes for a table so put our name on waitlist. After 20 minutes, other patrons were seated ahead of us. When questioning why, the security person was rude with attitude. Asked to be seated and then have Manager come over so we could discuss the issue more discretely. Kept asking to be seated and security person gave increasing attitude. Met the manager and said we could fill him in on the issue once seated but again we weren’t taken to our table. Security person initiated more tension and the manager told us to leave. Will never go back to this place. Other reviews indicate serious issues with service . All we wanted to do is discuss with manager what happened - obviously didn’t care.

Have been here many times and have no idea what has happened to this place. Went with three friends waited about 25 minutes for a table and once seated waited another 10 for the server to come over. We were ready to order, which seemed to annoy him as he only wanted to take our drink order and come back. Insisted we were ready. Took 40 minutes for the food to arrive and two of our meals were luke warm. Server never came back to ask how our food was or refill our drinks. Sat there with empty glasses. Was going to ask for manager, but decided, we aren't coming back, to many other options at UTC.

Man, I am glad I felt the urge to check this place out. I had heard they do mimosas to go, they had a sign confirming that, but by the time we left I was far too full to want to even consider it! Very dog friendly, they were even putting dogs "inside" (the whole place is just covered patios, so no matter where you sit you'll be a bit exposed to the elements). We got one of the tables right out front, and it was so much fun for people watching! We had a great time just seeing all the people (and their dogs of course) walking by. They had $5 mimosas while we were there, which was fun. Oh my gosh, the chicken pot pie was enormous! I have a big appetite and I could barely finish it, but I did because it was also insanely good. My wife enjoyed her lamb burger. They have a big bowl of dog treats out front, and our dogs enjoyed those as well. The prices are definitely a bit expensive here, but the portion sizes definitely made up for it. We will certainly be back here.
