Highly recommend their Swami’s Club, Ricotta Pancakes, Healthy Breakfast Burrito, and Yam Fries! The side salad was also super fresh and came with a delicious dressing. Waited about 25 minutes for the foodFood: 5/5

Had a bad experience here unfortunately. I ordered a medium rare burger. Waited over thirty minutes for the food to come while people who ordered well after me got their food. Then when it came it was well done. In the grand scheme of things none of this is a big deal and I know the staff are doing the best they can but a real big bummer nonetheless : View menu

We couldn’t find a place to take a party of 10 on short notice Labor Day until I called Swami’s and they said come on down we were able to move some tables and we had a great breakfast celebrating our parents 69th anniversary. The food was great the atmosphere was fun and the service was on point. Thanks Swami’s for making room for us I am very grateful.

We had the best meal in San Diego! The Salmon Caesar Salad was fantastic (it comes with garlic bread) and the ABC burger, which can be served with a salad, was also incredibly tasty. The portions were generous, and the atmosphere was clean and relaxing, complemented by friendly service. Plus, Verbatim Bookstore is conveniently located right across the street! Food: 5/5

We love this place. We come here for coffee, for lunch, and sometimes for breakfast. The place is family owned and it’s got a very nice vibe to it. The staff is super nice and the food is delicious. Our lunch fave is the California delight sandwich. For breakfast, I recommend the açaí bowl, it’s fantastic! As for coffee, they have 10+ flavors of freshly brewed coffee, plus specialty coffee, and a bar. View menu

The staff at this restaurant were incredibly friendly, and the food was absolutely fantastic! We often walk by on our way to the vintage market, so we finally decided to stop in for brunch, and it turned out to be the best decision we could have made! My favorite dish is the Caesar wrap, especially paired with their fries. We also tried the Greek omelette, which was delicious—the fruit was fresh, and the bread was perfectly toasted. The portion sizes are generous, which may explain why the place is always so busy! They also have a sports bar and outdoor seating available.

I was happily surprised of how good the food was. The man who took our order when you first walk in seemed like he was annoyed by our naivety as we've never been there before. I did not know you had to order first before sitting down.The food was really good, this place is vegetarian/vegan friendly. The club sandwich had mock turkey and bacon, which could have been cooked a lot more but I'd order it again and ask next time. It's an open air restaurant so there were flies and the music was good just too loud. If the man who took our orders was friendly and the music was not so loud I'd give 5 stars.
