The Whiskey House

The Whiskey House delivers a great experience overall. I ordered a bourbon flight, and my wife had a strawberry margarita—both were excellent. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable and happy to talk through the whiskey selection, which really elevated the experience. For food, I had the NY strip steak. It was okay and a bit tough, but still enjoyable. My wife’s Caesar salad was fantastic, and everything else about the meal and drinks hit the mark. The ambiance is top-notch—warm, lively, and perfect for a night out. It’s definitely on the pricier side, but the quality, atmosphere, and service make it worth it. We’d absolutely come back, especially for the drinks and vibe.

Only had snacks. They were tasty. Atmosphere is one of the very best I've ever experienced. Slow. Swampy Texas Blues music, dim lights, spectacular bar, the single largest whisky collection on Earth. Leans slightly American (Kentucky / Tennessee) which is positive. Pricing is quite high. Had a flight of 5 very basic whiskies which were less than a 1/2 ounce pour each and it was $56.00. Way too expensive. Otherwise this place is essential for whisky lovers while in San Diego.

94 page whisky menu. Good happy hour selections. The place is quiet and reasonable in price. $6 for a beer with a shot of their house whisky during Happy Hour. They claim the Guinness Book of Records for whisky selection. Can't argue (see pictures). Recommend the scotch marinated pork chop or sausage sandwich happy hour specials. Indoor and outdoor seating.

The environment is great, they have all the walls with whiskeys. Is a world of whiskey bottles, so impressive. The service and food were excellent!!! The only feedback to improve is the price of the 1oz whiskey. They are so expensive in comparison with the price of a bottle and a considerable earning by selling it in portions.

GREAT FOR WHISKY LOVERS!! We were staying in downtown and currently into Scotch... what a better place than Whisky House! We really enjoyed it here, we went 3 times total. First time we went on a Sunday towards the end of the Padres regular season game. It was a bit warm inside, no AC or we couldn't feel it. It wasn't too busy because the game was going on but got pretty busy after the game ended. We ordered the Japanese Tasting #2 and I got the Killkeran 12. The 2nd time around we made it for Happy Hour and we ordered the Scotch Egg and Kale Salad. Then we ordered 3 Scotchs: Kilchoman Loch Gorm, Bladnoch 10 and the Lagavulin Offerman Rum Cask. Everything was good but the Kilchoman Loch Gorm was really nice! Our last time we were literally 1 minute away from needing to sit outside but we snagged an inside table. This was on a Friday around 5 pm, super busy! For Happy Hour food we shared the Pork Chop (Marinated in Scotch, thyme, rosemary & garlic). usually served with fries but got salad instead. For Whisky we got the Mortlach 12, Ardmore Tradition and Strathisla 12. I really liked the Mortlach, super meaty! Overall always great service and would recommend any Whisky Lover to come here!

Awesome atmosphere in a place that has a Guinness record for the largest varieties of whiskey. The food is great and it is not upscale, very relaxing and also outside seating.

Hands down the best value happy hour in San Diego I’ve been to. 8oz charred new york strip and fries for $18 is a steal. Burger with fries for $10 and the vietnamese wings are fire. It can get super busy past 5pm on fridays and Saturdays but other than that you’re chillin. Service has always been great everyone. Shoutout the boy Barack!

Great place for happy hour. Food is good, drinks are better. We had the Happy Hour Salmon, Porkchop, and Mac-n-Cheese. With the Creme Brulee and Brownie to wrap it up. Definitely worth the visit for just the Atmosphere and whiskey selection.

I first stumbled upon this spot in 2020--it was one of the few places open on Father's Day. I was pleasantly surprised. What initially seems like a dark, unassuming bar turns out to be one of the warmest and most welcoming places in downtown San Diego. The staff truly make the experience. Christina is an absolute gem--so knowledgeable and clearly passionate about whiskey. I'm always happy when I walk in and see she's working. The bartenders are fantastic as well. Louis, Jose, and Jesse are all great. And Jesse makes the best Aperol Spritz in town--and that's saying a lot considering I live in Little Italy! The food here is amazing as well, the best happy hour - every day of the week.

We stumbled upon this little gem accidentally while looking for the Lazy Hippo for breakfast, it's right next door. To our surprise, they have the same menu the Lazy Hippo had when it was open, which was such a happy find. This ended up being one of the best breakfasts I've ever had. The food was hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious, and the service was outstanding. Nicole and Kelsey were our servers, and they were incredibly friendly and personable, making our brunch experience even better. It's hard to find a place where all four of us completely agree that it's exceptional, but this one absolutely did! I had the California breakfast burrito, my husband had the $20 breakfast special, which included bacon, sausage, eggs, potatoes, and French toast topped with fresh strawberries, our son had a regular breakfast burrito, and our daughter had the cinnamon roll pancake. All were absolutely delicious! This will definitely be a regular breakfast stop for us every time we're in San Diego!

This is not my first time here because truly I love coming here. The whiskey is always really good. They have good recommendations. The ambience is super dim lit, and it's a very social place where good conversation and good whiskey collide My favorite whiskeys are Russell's 10 year Blantons Does peanut butter whiskey is probably on my top 3 so far It does get pretty busy so I would say either come early or come during the week

I had a good time here at the Whiskey house for happy hour on a Thursday night. Came with a large group of 20 and I ordered two orders of "The Japanese" whiskey, the flat iron and fried steak, and wings. Service was very friendly and efficient. The whiskey was good, will have to come back again and try their higher end whiskey tastings. I ordered my flat iron steak medium rare but it came well done. Thankfully the flavor was good, the cut of meat was good, and it was still fairly juicy and tasty.

Holy moly they have a great happy hour selection. Service was quick, vibes were immaculate. Definitely coming back

Back again for their happy hour while visiting San Diego. 4-7 daily, located in the gas lamp district ( metered street parking only). They have a good variety of food options offered during happy hour- wings, full size cheese bacon burger with fries ($10), New York strip with fries $18, fish ceviche $8 to name a few. Wine $7, a couple beers for $5 and 5 different cocktails for $8. The place is dimly light with walls full of whiskey. Table and chairs as well as couch lounge areas. They also offer whiskey flight tasting or a shot glass of your favorite. Went on a Thursday evening and it was pretty full by 6pm. Service was friendly and attentive. Solid happy hour pick.

I had such a better experience this time around at the Whiskey House! Drinks were great and not watered down, a good sweetness and balance to the Whiskey sour in particular. They have super tasty wings with great prices on snacks during happy hour (daily 4-7pm). The whiskey sour was only $8 on happy hour-- awesome! I'll definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a dimly lit, relaxed whiskey bar experience downtown. The service was also quick while they were pretty busy :)

Very cool spot in the Gaslamp to enjoy many whiskey options, as well as grab a bite to eat. So many options for flights, and the staff is super friendly (and patient) the whiskey/liquor book is 93 pages, lol. Espresso martini was so delicious, with Bailey's foam. The food was pretty decent, we tried some happy hour options: Vietnamese wings, fries, and Scotch eggs. I'd try something different next time. I really liked the fresh cut fries with their house ketchup.

In town for a conference and this was in walking distance of where I am staying. It was chilly and pouring rain, so I appreciated a good grilled cheese and soup option. We came in pretty early for dinner, so they weren't busy and we were able to seat ourselves. The ambiance is nice, but dark. Each table has a dim lamp on their table and that is seemingly the only light source as you can barely see when you first walk in. My eyes did adjust after a few minutes, though. The grilled cheese could have been a tad cheesier, but the bread was nicely toasted and the herbed butter was delicious. The pobalano soup was smooth and spicy, I really enjoyed it. We did also order some fries to share and they were good, the ketchup they were served with seemed to be made in house. Overall a very tasty meal.

I have been here so many times, I've lost count. I wanted to update my review, with even more pictures, that just further validates my previous review of 5 Stars. My usuals are the burger, wings, house salad, and fries, but I've recently tried their Scottish egg, pork chops, and minestrone soup, and yet again, they were all delicious. The pork chop might become one of my go-tos from now on. It's so good.

Definitely a WHISKEY house haha. They have a separate booklet of whiskeys to choose from, and there is A LOT. I'm not a whiskey person and got their espresso martini which was good, I think I had 2! We ordered fries and a salad to munch on while we drank and the portions were insanely huge, we did not expect that.

My boyfriend and I came here recently on a little 2 night anniversary trip and were staying down the street at the Hard Rock. We wanted to find a good brunch spot and since we're both gluten-free and vegan sometimes that can be a little tough. We found this place on yelp and didn't really know what to expect. We were SO pleasantly surprised and a little bummed we hadn't found them sooner as we're both big whiskey lovers and would have come here for drinks instead the night prior. The space is such a vibe and the staff is all so chill and friendly. They had a pretty decent selection of gf and vegan dishes so we got the chocolate chip pancakes and a vegan plate with some juices. The portions were HUGE, like two dishes in one huge. Honestly so generous for the price. Our waitress also brought us a whiskey bible to check out while we waited for our food. It was literally a 100 page organized book of all the different whiskeys and drinks to choose from there! The food was honestly delicious and I can't wait to come back again. Next time though definitely for drinks. This is a great lounge spot to bring a couple friends for a fun night, date night or just because :)

Super cool place for whiskey lovers. I was so excited for the vegan brunch options. I love the decor, service, and swag. I had to purchase a hat

Decided to check this place out with a friend very much into whiskey. They had a huge, and I mean huge selection of bottles that they have a book dedicated to their collection. The bartender was super friendly and knowledgeable in his craft! The vibe of the bar was super chill and it seemed like a great place for locals and visitors. Definitely would come back for a drink or two, or three.

Yooo!!! If you're in San Diego and haven't hit this hidden gem with vegan options, what are you even doing?! The Vegan Plate? EXCELLENT. The vegan chocolate chip pancakes? EVEN MORE EXCELLENT...like, jump kick -yo-tastebuds good. And that green drink? Refreshing like a morning breeze in the jungle. Yeah, it's a little pricey... but that's the bitter-sweet duo, and trust me...it leans way sweet. These pancakes might be some of the best I've ever had...my goodness, I'm still thinking about 'em. Service was a tad slow, but worth every second of the wait. The ambiance? Straight fire. The walls are literally lined with every kind of whiskey you can imagine...It's a whiskey bar that looks like a carnivore's playground...and steals the spotlight without breaking a tofu sweat. Haven't been at night yet, but I'd bet my last stack of vegan pancakes it gets lit. Between the vibe and the whiskey wall, this place is made for a good time. If you haven't been... GO. I'm throwing 5 red-and-white Yelping stars at The Legendary Whiskey House like it's the vegan Oscars. I'm throwing 5 red-and-white Yelping stars at The Legendary Whiskey House like it just won Best Supporting Spot for Vegan Eats in a non vegan film. Straight up! Whiskey House keep keeping it Whiskey.

Somehow over the past decade I failed to ever notice this place even as a local who lived literally across the street at one point. I may have stopped in once but didn't give it a true chance. Since re-discovering it we've been back several times, it's that good. This is a no nonsense kinda place, the bartenders are laid back and they won't treat you like you're too special, but that's the point. It's super low lit lighting, which I personally love. It's got a cozy, relaxed and mysterious vibe to it. I noticed yelpers saying the staff is rude but if you want special treatment then go pay for it at Barley on 5th around the corner for 4x the price. Someone wrote they have New York attitudes and that's 100% true, I see nothing wrong here. Also yes, there aren't too many open tables/bar seats available if you go during busy hours but they do everything they can to accommodate. Go earlier and you won't have that problem! The food is incredible and happy hour doesn't compare to any other spot downtown. The ceviche, salmon, soups, kale salad, everything is delicious and filling! Fries are fresh cut and better than anywhere else DT. So glad to have rediscovered this place!

What a gem! When I say run to this place, literally run. Talk about the decor and the vibe it gives off. Pretty cool. They are the Guinness world record holder for the most of whiskey's in an establishment. (4,500 whiskeys) We came across this place by looking up whiskey bars in SD. my husband is a huge whiskey fan, this certainly was up his alley. Came for the HH, to our shock was a late one. Daily hh 4-7p! Okay our recommendation is the New York strip steak, ceviche, mac & cheese, AND not included in the happy hour, but their pecan-bourbon brownie. We did get wings and burger. The waitress did recommend the wings, but to our disappointment it was alright. Honestly, this place was so good I am begging to come back for their hh.

Solid spot for a drink. if you want exposure to whiskey, this is definitely the place. Service has always been friendly here. It's cool that they have flights by state or region. They have a list of old fashioned variations to choose from also. The peanutbutter old fashion is probably my favorite old fashion they have on the menu. The smoked bacon old fashion was much too sweet and almost undrinkable. Bartender might have lost count on how much simple syrup he was pouring that night . I had to ask for extra bacon.

What a spot! Never knew this existed here. Service was great! Came to San Diego for a Cisco conference and ran into this perfect spot. Didn't get to try the food but the drinks and ambiance were spot on. Had a few slugs and I tested this location on a whiskey that is very hard to find in southern California, Seven Still Whipnose whiskey. Been to Washington's biggest whiskey bar, been to colorado's biggest whiskey bar and I can say this location has it all. Best Whiskey Bar.

We didn't try any food but the service was great, very nice and attentive. The lighting was low but not too low giving a great ambiance. A nice place to relax and have a drink or try something new.

Decided to try whiskey house as an end to our evening out and wow did it exceed our expectations. The music was fantastic but not so loud that you couldn't have conversation with other patrons. The drinks that we got were the candied bacon old fashioned and the lavender whiskey sour. The candied bacon was a delicious little treat but after a while the drink was a little too sweet, it would have paired really nicely with some fries or steak but unfortunately we arrived too late and the kitchen was closed. We finished off with the lavender whiskey sour and it was excellent! The flavor and aroma of the lavender meshed so nicely with the whiskey and citrus. We'll definitely be coming back to try their other drinks and food.

This might be the place in San Diego for Happy Hour and the variety of whiskey is insane. This bar hold the Guinness world record for most variety of whiskey in one location. I enjoyed a scotch egg and Vietnamese chicken wings that were so delicious. For my drink I had an old fashioned that was smooth and very spirit forward. The bartender was very efficient and helpful. There is plenty of seating inside and they also provide outdoor seating.

This place has a great vibe and is nicely decorated. Unfortunately I only took 1 picture while I was there but it definitely won't be my last time there. I ordered the fish ceviche and a Moscow mule both on happy hour. The ceviche was delicious and same as the mule. Service was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend if you're in the gaslamp area away from all the crowds.

What a gem of a place. We stumbled upon this place downtown. Unassuming outside and inside a shrine to whiskey. The place has a "bible" of every whiskey they have and it's a big book. Our bartender Bruno was so friendly and attentive. It's well worth a stop in.

I love whiskey and I'm sure I would have loved it here but the bartender that was working was a real POS. This was just after the fireworks ended on the 4th so downtown was getting crowded. It was early-about 10:15, and while the bar was empty that was likely about to change. My wife and I walk in and are not sure if we can seat ourselves but the bartender basically just stared at us. So we go to sit on the bench along the wall and he says "two people done need to sit at a table that big". It was a 4-top, first of all, and the place was mostly empty. But he saysc "you can sit at the bar". Fine, we sit at the bar, then he says he hopes we don't want to eat because the kitchen is closing. It's not just he said that, it's the attitude and disgust he said it with. Like a New Yorker having a bad night but without the humor you usually get with it. There are an infinite other ways to say that without being an a**about it. Finally, we sit down and he says something about how we need to be quick because they're probably going to close. Again, 10:15, a Friday night, and the 4th of July just after the fire works, and you're going to close early? Anyway, seeing as how he clearly didn't want us there and wasn't interested in serving us, we got up and left. Hopefully he found it annoying that he now had to clean the water glasses he gave us. Truly truly an a**h***. The place is beautiful and the whiskey selection awesome. I would have enjoyed being here for a couple of drinks but now I'm just happy I didn't give them my money. Plenty of other places to go.

This place is awesome! Great for happy hour too. They have so many different kinds of whisky which set a record. The Mac and Cheese with chorizo was amazing and a must have. Also had the salmon which was good. Service was also excellent and fast. Can't wait to go back here esp as a Padre pregame spot

3/5 Food 5/5 service (Marco) Went for happy hour on a beautiful day and nice weather with lots of seats outside. Ordered the Vietnamese wings which were an interesting flavor but the wings themselves were good sizes and juicy. Got the hamburger which I always order as medium rare so I'm used to seeing a good amount of pink however when I cut into the burger you could see parts were completely raw. The pork also came out as raw. The chorizo mac and cheese flavor was pretty good but wished it was more melted as you could see the unmelted cheddar cheese under the chorizo. Our server Marco was awesome though to make changes immediately, ordered the hamburger as medium and the pork later came out well cooked. The drinks were also a great deal as they didn't go light on flavors and cheap draft beer.

Went for their happy hour. They didn't have great drink options on the happy hour menu. We were told we could sit inside if we could fine a table that wasn't reserved. Majority of the tables had reservation signage but in the hour that we were not a single party came. I was wanting an old fashioned but went with whiskey sour since it was on the happy hour menu. It didn't taste very good. I usually like whiskey sours but this one just wasn't great. Our party ordered the peanut butter, Al Capone, and boulvardier. None were amazing. The service was terrible. The person that originally took our order disappeared and never came back. Had to track someone down to pay. The feel was cool and seeing all the different whiskeys available was fun. Not great pricing for trying stuff though. Won't be back.

Came back to The Whiskey House for dinner to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday. The drinks, as always, were top-notch. They really know their whiskey, and the cocktail menu is solid--great selection, great execution. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite live up to the drinks this time. I had the pork chop and he got the steak. Both were just... okay. Not terrible, but definitely not worth the price. We left kind of wishing we had eaten somewhere else and just come here after for a drink. Overall, I'd give the experience 3.5 stars. If I were rating just the drinks, it would easily be 4.5. But for dinner? I wouldn't really recommend it. Still a great spot to grab a whiskey or two, just not my go-to for a full meal.

Everyone should have Sunday Happy Hour! Brilliant idea , nicely executed! Happy hour menu has a great variety of food and drink options at perfect happy hour prices. We ordered several items and drinks. Our favorites were the Korean chicken wings and the Scotch Egg. The chicken wings were so uniquely flavorful and the scotch Egg was cooked perfectly. Our drinks were tasty as well. They have hundreds or Whisky choices. The bottles surround the dining and bar area lending a wonderful, grown up vibe without being stuffy. Our server was friendly and helpful in trying to decide what to enjoy. Definitely worth heading downtown for - can't wait to come back again!!

This place is unassuming on the outside, exactly what you want on the inside: wall.to wall choices AND DINNER (don't skip on the scotch eggs!). I was able to find two of my favorite whiskeys that aren't easy to find at reasonable prices and they LEAVE THE BOTTLE with you so you can read labels, take pictures etc. The ambiance is just enough refined, slightly dive, perfect mix of all and if you don't want to try something neat they have a cocktail list and didI mention full dinner? Next time I'm back in SD this is first on my list, does not disappoint!

Jr. was amazing, great service, food yummy and good portions. We celebrated a Birthday on Sunday, large group and it worked out perfectly in the back. Also, great place for pictures and enjoy cozy sitting area.

Heard a lot bout this place from locals. The whiskey selection was amazing, the food was good. The service was ok, just not very engaging. The wait staff left us waiting outside because there sign to stay outside was posted on the door. They forgot it was there and left us waiting outside for 10 minutes. The waiter wasn't very happy or engaging with us at all. The whiskey was so good, ordered a flight but couldn't get a recommendation. The space is big and has a nice atmosphere.

Enjoying coffee at a nearby shop, I noticed someone walk in wearing a sweatshirt with "The Whiskey House"; being whiskey fans, I quickly looked it up; realizing it was located about a block away, it became our next stop! Great vibe: dim lighting; rich, dark wood; sophisticated decor; fun seating options; and an abundance of whiskeys! We were immediately greeted and asked for our order; we each ordered a classic go-to cocktail. However, we were never offered menus; had we known, we would've started with one of their specials. Great service, good cocktails (not clear ice cubes but still nice). Eager to return to experience more whiskey and their food items... on happy hour (daily 4-7 PM)! Fun find!

The place was very good for whiskey lovers. Plenty of scotch and whiskeys from all over the world. We came for my bachelors party for a late night drink. The bartender however was kind of arrogant and rude. When I asked him about rebreast he responded agitated that "there's a lot of whiskeys I don't know them all," then when my cousin asked to put a drink on a tab he remarked "I don't know what that means..." are you not the bartender? Lastly while my friend just closed his eyes momentarily as we were leaving he remarked that "he has to go, I don't care he has to leave" as we were leaving. I didn't care to catch his name but he was in a bad mood the whole night but the place was good. I'd come back, I truly would, but I'd make sure to stay away from him

If you love Whiskey, or craft cocktails, this is the place for you. Staff is very knowledgeable in their wide selection. They also have a pretty good happy hour for food and drinks. Though the drinks are good, the food is only ok. The place definitely picks up quickly. Our party arrived at 4:00 and by 6:00 the place was completely packed. Ambiance is nice, has a good downtown rustic lounge vibe with a peaceful feel due to the dim lighting

Stopped by for a quick drink before dinner. Great music, happy hour menu and service. The service did get a little slow when it came to getting the tab but it was also around 6am busier. The Japanese old fashion was wonderful as were the fries and crispy Diet Coke. Just sucked to have to wait over half an hour for our tab.

Relaxing, fun atmosphere and attentive service Shout out to Jesse and Jose - informative and hospitable - did good job Amazing whiskey selections Best in San Diego and best in the United States Guinness World Records establishment

If you can think of it, they have it and more! From high end rare bottles to tasty hard to find selections from everywhere. Barrel proof, reserves, ryes, bourbons etc. it's a whiskey lovers paradise

I only had drinks this time, but the food menu looked amazing -- definitely coming back to try it. The vibe was incredible, and I loved checking out their huge collection of whiskey bottles. Such a fun, unique place to hang out!

It's not often that I think I've died and gone to heaven when walking through the doors of an establishment. The Whiskey House is absolutely a religious experience. A whiskey Bible like you would not believe. More specialty old fashioneds than angels. And a crème brûlée that reminds you that you're just a sinner. It has a decadent speakeasy vibe and shelf upon shelf of gorgeously displayed bottles. Not a detail is overlooked. There's outside seating, if that's important to you, but you can't adequately take it all in from outside. Stop by and get baptized in bourbon.

Came here on a weekend and tried out their brunch menu. Brunch was good! They have a pretty big selection of food and of course, some brunch cocktails. I got the chilaquiles and it was yummmmmm! I also tried Sazerac for the first time and I really liked it. You can never go wrong with their cocktails and whiskeys; they're strong and an absolute delight. Service was also great! I thought we were gonna get a sub par service because of how busy they were when we were there, but I was truly impressed that they still made the effort to check on us to see if everything was good despite the busyness. Thank you!

Food was amazing!! Cinnamon pancakes to die for!! Service was great - not busy for a Saturday morning we got lucky for sure with this gem for breakfast Ambiance is dark and relaxing bar feeling! Kids loved it

Staff are kind of jerks, they act like a dive bar but charge 17$ a drink. Could hear the hostess talking trash to the bar tender about the patrons and god forbid you ask for a cocktail off menu. So aside from the huge selection its not worth it given the shitty attitudes and prices. Drinks weren't anything special or creative. They're just leveraging the huge variety they have.

I came here to grab a bite to eat with a. Friend after comic con. It's not far from the convention. The staff were veeeery slow here. So make sure not to come if you're in a rush as it took a while for them to bring the menu, take the order, for the food to come to us, and then to take the payment. And no, it wasn't busy. lol. My friend got the burger and fries which he said were very good. I tried the fries and they were definitely tasty. I got the tacos, which came with only two tacos and nothing else. I was still hungry afterward. The place itself had a nice look to it.

Whiskey House remains a great spot just off the beaten path of the Gaslamp Quarter's main streets. They feature a cool atmosphere inside with walls lined with whiskeys from all over the world in such a hip way. Boasting 4000 whiskeys sourced globally, they have cocktails as well as flights capitalizing on all of that variety. Outside they have some of the post pandemic on street patio seating. Instead of a beer garden, it's kind of a whiskey patio. This gem has been a staple to bring out of town whiskey loving guests as well as it was a great date spot when my BF and I started dating. As if it couldn't get any better, they have an AMAZING Happy Hour! 7 days a week and it goes to 7pm. The ceviche, the salmon, the wings all got rave reviews. Last time we were there the server was very friendly and joked around with us a bit. Definitely makes the experience better.

I'm surprised I hadn't left a previous review as it's our favorite spirits bar in town that's not a speakeasy. Our last visit was a meetup with friends to celebrate a belated birthday during their happy hour. We had just come from dinner so we weren't hungry so my wife had their Al Capone and Smoked Bacon Old Fashioned. I no longer drink anymore so I just had a bottle of Heineken Zero (0.0 ABV). Our friends had several of their Happy Hour food items and I'll try to remember them all: Scotch Egg, Sausage On a Roll (Bratwurst), and Pork Chop. All food had been finished so I can speak for the others and say they liked it. Our servers were friendly, but I believe we got caught in between server shifts because there was a window where it was difficult to get a hold of them, and we needed to place an order for more drinks, then again to ask for our check. We actually had to walk to the bar to get someone's attention to come over to our table. This was a surprise that it felt like the restaurant had forgotten about us. Had we had more attentive service, this review would've been a 5-star review. I can say that Tuesday evenings are a good time to try this place. It was only a quarter occupied, parking was relatively easy to find, and you had a choice of available seating. I wish I took some photos to add but we only had drinks and the lighting was pretty dimly lit in their dining area. The Whisky House is a solid bar! I can't recall the year, but if they no longer own the record, they used to have the most whiskeys available to drink from their spirits collection in the Guinness Book of World Records.

Stopped by for Happy Hour before seeing the ballet at Balboa Theater. The location was a bit farther out from the theater, but not too bad. We were able to walk from there so we didn't park nearby. The drinks were tasty, but not overly strong. Our party also had the wings, salmon, ceviche, and mac and cheese. The ceviche was really good, but the salmon was just okay.

Had lunch here and it was delicious and a good time. Bruno and Jackie were awesome. They were friendly and very helpful. Definitely going to come back.
