The Rabbit Hole

I’ve been to The Rabbit Hole a few times in the past and stopped by again during happy hour for beer and wine. The nachos were great and probably the highlight of the visit. The space is open with a fun and laid-back vibe, although it does get pretty loud. There are plenty of seating options, including both a front and back patio. Service was fine. It wasn’t exceptional, but there were no issues. Overall, it’s a solid spot for casual drinks and bar food.

Loved it! We got the chicharrones and garlic Parmesan wings to start, and the wings were some of our favorites that we’ve found in San Diego. The chicharrones were super fresh and delicious! Lots of drink options, the service was quick, and we were able to bring our dog on the front patio. For our meals, we got the chicken club and Caesar salad. Both were good, but will definitely just get more wings next time.

The Rabbit Hole is a great sports bar to watch sporting events. We went there on a Sunday for lunch to watch some NFL games. The indoor & the outdoor areas are well designed and have comfortable seating. The outside patio has plenty of seating options to watch the games comfortably with your group. In addition, the Rabbit Hole has plenty of TVs showcasing all the different games to support your favorite team. They also have a nice fire pit in the middle of the back patio. The service was fast, several alcohol selections available and the food was very tasty, while affordable. Our favorites were the dry rub wings and the side salad. Overall this is a great place to go with friends to watch sports!

Great food, once we got it! The bartender was super cool, good vibe at the place, but our short stint there was a little rushed, so when the kitchen took over 20 minutes to get an order out we had to take it to go. Otherwise, had a good time and enjoyed a slushy drink that was pretty good!! I'd go back. To the owner: a brisket taco (delish!!), a pretzel, and the elote dip (bangin'!!!). We ate in the car as I had to rush out - this was on 7/19, I believe.

Even tho the place was unusually busy, our server was very attentive and took time with us. The elote dip was incredible, the wings were very good (able to mix two sauces/rubs), and the gyro was ok (nothing to write home about in my opinion) Great selection of local beers and they have lots of space inside and a nice outdoor area. With the big open doors you can still enjoy the weather from the bar area. Will definitely be back!

Great food and well made drinks. Georgia bar! Go DAAWGS!

We stopped on a Sunday afternoon and easily found a good spot, straddling inside and out. First thing we noticed is that they had heaters ready over the outside seating, which is great this time of year. We mainly stopped for beers/drinks, but we also ordered elote dip with chips and that was delicious. Our waitress was attentive and friendly and the experience was fantastic. Stop by the Rabbit Hole if you’re in the area.

Loved the food, drinks and vibes. We stopped in for lunch and the food definitely was worth the wait. Great selection of beer and cocktails. Yummy menu items. Decently priced.

While I just reviewed Rabbit Hole in May, I just want to come back and share some additional love after my last visit, last Friday. You'd think a place like this would be overwhelming and to crowded on a Friday night, but this place felt comfortable and busy without being crowded. I say this because in my old age I feel like (in my head) I avoid places like Rabbit Hole on a busy block because I just assume they're going to be messy with people. Not here. We watched the Padres game and sipped our drinks with ease all while carrying on a great conversation... even with the (really good) musician playing. I'm a sucker for some acoustic punk rock and last Friday the guitar player set the scene. It was fantastic. Thanks for being you, Rabbit Hole. See you soon!

Arrived late on a rainy day after a street fair was packing up. The place is more bar oriented and it was busy. Even though we could see empty seating, we had to wait about 15 minutes for a seat without reservations. Loud and lots of sports fans for the TV show. We wanted the flat bread, but they were sold out. The beer was good, limited wine options, but some good cocktails. ended up sharing Poke Nachos and another appetizer. Staff were very busy and kept up, but often would yell as they passed by instead of coming to our table. It was ok, the food was better than expected and had more options. I could see how this may be overwhelming when they have live music or weekends. It is not upscale, it is casual and local feel. Indoor and street seating. Parking may be very crazy and limited. Best for drinks, food and Sports or live music.

Came here with a friend just for a couple of drinks and was reminded why I've always liked this spot. Drinks are solid , nice without being overly "upscale," so it keeps that casual, fun vibe. The indoor/outdoor setup is perfect for a beautiful San Diego day, and the atmosphere just pulls you in. What really stood out this time was the music , totally catered to millennials with all the nostalgic jams that had us vibing the whole time. It felt fun, familiar, and made the whole experience even better. Definitely a place I'll keep in mind when I want good drinks, good vibes, and a little throwback soundtrack.

Nice local bar with great food and drinks! Went last weekend when I was hungover and needed a little hair of the dog, lol. Orion was the bartender and made me an amazing Bloody Maria -- perfect consistency, not too thick. His margarita was perfection too -- not too sweet, with tajin on the rim. Went back a couple days later and Hannah was an awesome bartender as well. Definitely try the elote dip -- so freaking good!

Good spot for a drink and appetizers! Low key hang out space. Fun, upbeat vibe. Lots of mid 20s-30s ppl. Nothing super special drinks and food wise but not bad at all either. Nice pregamimg spot or sports watching place.

We were hanging out in Normal Heights with a group of friends celebrating a birthday. The Rabbit Hole was our first gathering spot. Becky and I had heard good things about the place. It lived up to the hype. Upon walking in we were immediately impressed. The place is pretty damn huge. Booths lining the walls, four tops galore and a great front patio. The entire front of the building opens up with giant "garage door" roll-up doors. It was a beautiful San Diego Saturday, so we found a spot on the patio to accommodate all 10 of us. Service was bit slow at first, but there were just two women working the entire place and one was the bartender, so it was all up to Leya (not sure if I spelled her name correctly) to handle the rest. It was pretty busy too for 11:30 in the morning. After our initial wait and order, Leya was spot on. We were never left waiting. It was mostly just drinks for everyone, but Bex and I ordered wings for the group. We chose the Jalapeño Garlic Butter with sides of ranch and bleu cheese for dipping. WOW! Fantastic wings! Some of the best we've had anywhere. So flavorful with a great char on them and a nice heat from the Jalapeño. We loved that they were dry rubbed and not dripping with sauce. Jalapeño-y, garlicky goodness! We don't find ourselves in Normal Heights very often. I have a feeling that might change. See you at the Rabbit Hole! Dry-Rubbed Wings $14.00/6 wings$22.00/12 wings Our Semi-Famous Dry-Rubbed Wings. Choose from Jalapeño Garlic Butter, Lemon Pepper or Garlic Parmesan.

I came here the other day with my cousins, and we had a great time chillin & listening to the dj. I started off brunch with The Dude, but it kinda missed the mark for me--it tasted like watered-down coffee with a noticeable splash of alcohol. Not really my vibe. Now Purple Hour? Total game changer. A blueberry matcha dream! So smooth, so flavorful--definitely a 10/10. I'd absolutely recommend grabbing this one! I also ordered the breakfast burger with fries and wow--it was bomb! I'd 100% order it again. I gave the chicken chilaquiles a try, but honestly, they were a bit lacking in flavor.

The service was amazing. The food was amazing. The drinks were strong and priced well. The music was great. They played sports on the tv. We love this place! My husband and I will be coming often.

I stopped by on a Monday night around 7 PM for their free bingo event. The place has a great vibe with indoor seating, a front patio, a back patio, and a solid bar right in the center. Service was excellent! Our waitress checked in on us regularly. They have a good beer selection too. They also have a dog menu with a chicken or beef patty. I ordered the ahi poke tuna bowl based on our waitress's recommendation, but unfortunately, it was pretty bad. It was drenched in sauce, which made it taste heavy and low-quality. I could barely eat it. That said, this is still a fun spot overall. Street parking can be hit or miss, but it's usually just a short walk. Worth stopping in for a drink and the atmosphere.

On a Sunday at 12pm, it wasn't too busy. We were seated quickly. I came here with a group of 7 and a baby, and typically a bar isn't a place to bring a baby, but it wasn't too loud or rowdy. He was even able to sleep while we ate. They have a DJ who was awesome! I loved her selection of music. As for food, I ordered the chilaquiles, and it tasting bland is the reason I knocked down a star. My sister ordered one of the breakfast sandwiches and honestly wished I got one of those! I ordered a sweet georgia bee. It tasted like a (heavily) spiked lemonade. It was sour, sweet, but as someone who isn't fond of the taste of alcohol, the rum was very strong! That's on me though for not reading what's in it lol. Give this one a try if you're thinking about it! It comes with a pretty flower on top and makes a great photo! Service was okay. We ordered and got it within 15 minutes. The area surrounding it has many mom and pop shops to support too!

First off, there is only street parking, so you may need to park down the street. Also, there are parking lots close by, but don't park there or you may get towed. The place has a good bar type vibe with high top seating throughout and some seating around a small fire pit outside. We were seated promptly and had our drink and food orders taken right away. We ordered various wings, the sweet corn elite and 5 cheese mac. The food came out pretty quickly and all of it tasted great. The lemon pepper dry rub wings are very lemony and peppery lol. The only issue we had, which wasn't really as issue, was we ordered the elote dip, which comes with tortilla chips, but what we got was a side of sweet corn elote, that doesn't come with chips. We asked about it and they were willing to give us chips and switch it out, but we elected to just stay with what we got. Make sure if you want one or the other, that you clarify because I can see how it gets confused. Other than the at, everything was great, the service, the food and the atmosphere. Even after we finished our group hung around to chat, and they were cool with that (the place wasn't full, so we weren't taking up tables). When I'm in the area again, I will definitely eat here. The servers were all so friendly and it's just an inviting place.

Not impressed with this place. Seems they catered to younger people and they put all of us over 60 in other section. Yes we noticed!! The flatbread was burnt on the top and raw on the bottom. The drinks were fine and so was the wedge salad but how you mess up a wedge salad. We won't be back.

I recently visited The Rabbit Hole for a friends birthday. Unfortunately, I didn't get to try the food but it definitely looked delicious! They have a big selection of drinks, they're very pricey though! So keep that in mind. We went on a Friday so the had live music, and wow! The band was amazing!!! Make sure to bring earplugs if you're too sensitive to the loud noise because it gets pretty loud! The service was okay, as you may expect, they get pretty busy so they take a while sometimes. Overall a good place! I will definitely come back!

Chuck Norris Themed Burger! I bought it, I loved it, I showed off my kicks in front of Chuck! Full bar, well decorated, clean, staff is quick enough, and I met a pretty woman who I asked out to an art exhibit and karaoke! I'll Be Back...

Googled "good food near me" and this place came up with several others, I was intrigued by the name so chose The Rabbit Hole. I got a GOAT salad and fried pickles. Both were huge portions and I couldn't finish either one. The fried pickles came with a few dipping sauces and the outside was nice and crispy even though I got it to go.... I may be guilty of snacking on them driving home though :) Salad was delicious! I love the combination of strawberries, cheese and nuts. Also saw some cocktails I'd like to try when I dine in.

Elote Dip was SOOO good! A lot bigger than expected but a pleasant surprise Tim and Natalie were great bartenders!

Came for some food,drinks, and watch the basketball game with some friends. The Calamari and cheese curds seemed like small portions for their price. We joked at the table that they were European portions. The pretzel lived up to it's name. The food itself was ok, that's about it. As far as drinks everyone got beers and they were solid. Service was slow, but to be fair they were pretty slammed. Parking can be a bit of a pain for the area, but not impossible. I would only suggest this place for happy hour and that's about it.

Great neighborhood spot. Music is always top notch without being too crowded. Just chill and hang out on the back patio during the day. Great staff and all my favorite cocktails. Food is awesome too.

Hot Chocolate 10/10. We went on a Tuesday and it I believe was their Christmas party? There was karaoke and it was alot of fun! People taking shots and partying/dancing on a Tuesday night was wild! I felt like I was in PB 20 years ago. This is not normally a place I would frequent but we had a good time! Also note the wall decor to the restroom had cool as sh** artwork on the walls.

I dont usually leave reviews for restaurants but I decided to reopen my yelp account specifically for this one. Awful service. There were 4 bartenders behind the bar. One of them named Orion actually saw me and helped me. He did a great job. Guy deserves a raise. I know the name of the other bartender Cory. He didn't introduce himself. Didn't say a single word to me the whole time. How do I know his name? Because I had to stop him to close out my tab and his name was listed on my bill. And then he tried to give my whole tab to a couple next to me. I felt bad for that couple. Food came after the server went around the entire bar first with it. Nice and cold by the time it got to me. Bartenders noticed my empty glass and would remove it. Didn't ask if I wanted another. Didn't say hi. Just ghosted me like I didn't exist. It was sunday football brunch. I get it. But it was AFTER several games had ended. It was a pretty sparse bar. There's no excuse. I hope not to revisit this bar and I live within walking distance. Id rather spend money on an Uber to go somewhere out of the way where they actually pay attention to me. Don't go here. Thats my review. Sorry but you gotta try harder than that. Later.

I got a sandwich here. Good live music! I went for a the street fair. Not the best service

Amazing food. Attentive service. Great vibe with the indoor/outdoor dining. Food was the best part!

Great happy hour deals! My cocktail was $7 and very tasty. I got the hummus tray which was super delicious and filling and my total with food and drink out to about $15 which is a great deal. Parking was a little hard to find since it's street parking. The ambiance was nice and it wasn't too busy. The service was a bit on the slower side but the servers were kind and friendly.

I came here for a Pitch-a-Friend event. I had the house margarita ($7 for taco Tuesday pricing) and a side of chips and salsa for 6 dollars. The margarita was pretty tasty. The chips seemed stale and there wasn't enough salsa provided. I would not order that again. Service was average. There is a lot of seating including indoor and outdoor. Overall, it was fine but I won't be back.

Decent spot with lots of seating and a front patio for dogs. Our server was nice and patient since our dog was hyper after seeing another dog at a table nearby. She gave us a pup cup in attempt to calm him down. The burger and fries were good. The tuna poke with wonton chips were also tasty and surprisingly huge (in the photos it looked tiny). The elote was just okay. Nice selection of beers.

Didn't have food. Service was ok. The ambiance was not my vibe. It's overly loud. What's the point in hanging with friends if you can't hear each other talking.

Went about 7pm... it's was slow so was sat immimmediately. It was 4 of us. We ordered drinks and food. We got our drinks and food fast. The painkiller was great. I felt good leaving there. The burger was juicy.

My 50 year old friend didn't get in with an expired ID. She's literally 50. This is crazy. However, the server was great. Tim, not so much.

The nachos here are from another world. So good! Chips, wonton chips, and tater tots covered in all the essentials. I added brisket to thicken my muffin top a bit and accomplished the mission. Great time with friends, all the football games were on, and it was a fun crowd.

Trivia night is so fun! First time here and had a blast. Love how spacious it is and dog friendly. I can see why this place is frequented.

Mostly here for the drinks , live music and sports. Food can be hit or miss. Service is good.

Husband got the Cubano Sandwich with a side salad instead of fries. He said the sandwich was nice but it could have been a little less salty. The pork was cooked well and the flavors went well together. Maybe some letters or more pickles would have made the sandwich better. The raspberry vinaigrette was very flavorful. He went with a friend who got the duck wings. He seemed to enjoy the wings.

Burnt 15 Dollar chicken wings should be a crime. I went in soo excited and left with wings I could barley eat. Got home and my 15 Dollar chicken wings looked like the pi s Below I will cook my own next time I do not recommend If you want is to pay 15 for 6 chicken wings. Please do not burn them and make them hard to eat. The carrot sticks tasted better. Sad customer..

Came across this place while looking for a lunch spot in the area. The jalapeño and garlic butter wings were delish and had great beer options to wash it down. Great place for brunch, catch a game or looking for a fun pub vibe.

Good ambience but that's about it. Food was terrible, service was terrible. server was nice but waited for ever for drinks, waited for ever to order, waited for ever to receive anything ordered, she even came back asking if we received items we ordered?? Um did you bring it to us? Lol prob won't be back. Oh and I wasn't even charged on my credit card what my bill reflected. Maybe they do that thing where gratuity is already sneakily added so that u tip even more? Not sure tho, couldn't even review my bill itemized to see if it was accurate. Hate leaving negative reviews but this was my experience (along with my friends opinions too)

Came here for some late night drinks and eats. I love that they do karaoke and have a great variety at their bar. The drinks were amazing and affordable and I loved that the had vegetarian options on their late night eats

Cute spot for a drink and yummy apps. The cocktails are pricey but delicious, and the food was all perfect bar food. Tons of space and a cute outdoor patio in the back. Front and back patio both had heaters, just not super strong everywhere.

Came here for a Warriors game with a friend and had the impossible tacos and wanted to try the tot-chos. Unfortunately, the tater tots were unavailable today and maybe if they were included this might've tasted better. The chips seemed a bit stale and. we didn't end up getting close to finishing them. The tacos were similarly underwhelming and the impossible meat had a rubbery texture. The two tacos were not filling at all. What was lacking in the food was made up by the people. Our server was very friendly and the game time atmosphere was super fun. The Rabbit Hole is a great place to stop by with some friends for a drink and a game.

I was greeted and told to sit in the back. I went back there and the place I was told to sit was reserved. We were forced to sit at the bar. We ordered cheese curds, sliders, two impossible burgers, and engine 18. It took an hour for them to get our food and they forgot a burger. Everything was brought out at the same time including appetizers. The cheese curds were an extremely small portion. The burger they forgot took an extra 30 minutes and we decided to take it to go. With this, the manager blamed our server when I clearly saw her put it in the system. Luckily, our burger was comped for their mistake. There's been other restaurants I've been too that are busier and have better service and quality. There is no excuse for this poor of service at the prices they charge. I don't blame the server, but this restaurant is poorly managed.

Fun place to watch the Padres or people watch! Fast service and huge portions of food. You can bring your pup and ample seating outdoors. Parking can be an issue at times.

Great vibe here. Love the outdoor seating that's dog friendly. I had the Cali creamin on Nitro. It hits so good. I ordered the slider trio. So delicious. Just the right amount of food for lunch. Server was super friendly even offered to turn on heater on for us . Definitely check this spot out if your in Normal Heights

Flew to San Diego to be at a friend's graduation. So happy we found this place for drinks after the graduation. The vibe is good. Inside and outside seating. Lots of tvs and good music. Food, service and drinks were good. I would definitely recommend this place

There was a piece of beef or ground turkey in my water. When I told the bartender she said "we don't have beef here so that's def not food" just blatantly lying to me because they have burgers and tons of food it could have been. It was most def a piece of food. Didn't say sorry and made us pay for our soup still. I felt so icky. I understand mistakes happen but to also be rude and just lie to my face really sucked. Bummed.

Came in here on a random friday night with some friends and it was PACKED! There was a wrestling match on tv so people were rowdy but the lighting and decorations of this restaurant is spectacular, I love all the random bunnies on the walls. As for the food, the nachos and elote dip were super unique menu items so we ordered that. The elote dip was a 4/5 for me as I wish it tasted more authentic to what elotes really taste like (mayonnaisey, buttery, cotija cheese-y, you know) but it was still really good. The nachos were your regular nachos with some chicken and tater-tots. These were a 3/5 for me because though I enjoyed all the elements to the nachos, there was a strong beer (?) taste to the cheese dor some reason which i HATED. Lastly, my choice entree was their fish and chips plate with brussels sprouts. The fries were 5/5 and the kethup they served had cumin (?) mixed in which was new and very tasty. the brussels sprouts were made wonderfully and i loved them. As for the fish itself, genuinely a 1/5. It was 80 percent breading and 20 percent fish, greasy, and doughy practically RAW inside. I did not enjoy the fish at all which I was so looking forward to:( Overall, I would definitely come back, their menu items are fun and quirky and they have a plethora of options on their beer, cocktail, and wine menu. also; Hopefully next time though we get a better server because ours was very inattentive and gave us attitude when we told her we were ready to order LOL

This is actually a really great bar! A lot of seating available, clean. Does get busy but I think the staff does a great job of handling the amount of customers they get. Even at the bar when it's been busy I always still get great service and bartenders do a great job. Greg is by far one of my favorite bartenders here. He knows how to make drinks. It's a good spot to hang out with friends or just grab a drink alone. Normally a good crowd. Good social spot. Food is really good as well.

Stop by here after the street fair this past Sunday with my friends. I've been to Rabbit Hole two times before this, but the first time I noticed the back patio. Very adorable layout. It has relaxing lay back chairs in the center, with booth tables surrounding the outskirts. There's plenty of TVs if you're looking for a spot to accommodate Sunday football! It is a seat yourself type of restaurant, which is my preference because it feels a lot faster than waiting to be sat. Although the bar was packed, we are able to snag a table within 5 minutes of searching. Overall, I really enjoyed the ambiance and the food & drinks. I ordered their specialty cocktail, Basil Bunny, and the Teriyaki Bowl. There's a DJ setup inside and a really cool glow in the dark black light setup in the hallway toward the restrooms. Although, the service was very subpar. Our waitress, Phoebe, forgot my drink about 10 minutes after everyone got there drinks, she mentioned that she had forgot which table it was supposed to go to, and when and grabbed it from the bar.. so she had my drink just sitting at the bar for 10 minutes, instead of making me a new one... just brought me that exact one. A different person delivered our food. Our waitress never came to check on us to see if we needed anything or if we got everything we ordered. I was pretty disappointed in the service. But I am hopeful that that's not a standard experience.

Awful experience, went for lunch at 12 to find out the don't sell lunch at lunchtime only brunch until 2pm. Waitress offered to ask kitchen if they could make two dishes we wanted from lunch menu, they said no! Wedge salad barely touched and ate half chicken waffles didn't care for it. Salsa and chips eh. Worst of all they didn't care, I told the manager we had a poor experience and explained and she just said ok. I would give negative stars if I could!

We had to evacuate LA cause of the fires and needed a place to go to forget about what was happening so we went to watch the Steelers game and called ahead to make sure the were showing the game. We asked if they had time limit on table they said no but made us leave before half time cause they reserved a table they never actually had. We were ready to order more beers but they didn't even give us a chance instead they made us to move to an area with no chairs. You're a sports bar!! You know what that entails and if you let people stay they will order more. From evacuating LA to evacuating this "bar"

Been here over 30 times over the last 13 years. Busy but not busy. Doesn't matter, because service has declined every year since, especially since pandemic. Typical beers. Otherwise, a decent place to go off Adams. Same place in North Park with True North but yet you get served in under 20 minutes( not busy ). Used to order the food but It's typical bar food. Outside area is fun.
