Mercer Hall Galley - S San Diego

Great dating setting; take a woman to the Mercer Hall Galley if you truly want to impress her.

Overall great food however the CS's have a huge attitude problem especially at the front desk checking ID's.

Honestly this place is the best place for a full up meal, the food is tasty, good drink selection, deserts and a full salad bar. Thanks to all the AD and workers there, they deserve all the respect. Salute
