Del's Hideout - San Diego

Great bbq here!!! Had the brisket which was absolutely perfect and the hot link was great as well full of flavor and spice...beans was awesome as well!!! Great service from the super friendly staff and plenty of beverages to choose from both alcoholic and non...a must visit place and a must regular spot if u live in the area...

Dels has been our go-to BBQ restaurant for years. When we're looking to impress friends or ask for favors, we skip the pizza and opt for Dels instead. Unfortunately, the portion sizes have decreased over the years, which is a bit disappointing; otherwise, we would visit more frequently like we used to. Their meat platters, wings, sliders, meatloaf, fish and chips, and side dishes are always a safe bet. The killer beans and collard greens are particularly amazing. They offer a good selection of beers, drinks, and weekday specials. On icy days, they have roll-up windows, but they close when it's really cold. Plus, there are arcade games and plenty of TVs for sports, making it a fun spot for families. Kid-friendliness: There are arcade games for kids to enjoy.

This was our first visit, and it was definitely worth the trip! We live just a few minutes away, and one day we decided to give it a try. We ordered the dinner for two, which included brisket, chicken, and pulled pork, and it was absolutely delicious! The meat was tender, flavorful, and juicy. We chose mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, and chili as our sides, and they were all fantastic as well! After our meal, we relaxed and played some games with our kids. It’s a great place to enjoy good food in a laid-back atmosphere!

I arrived with no expectations, just to meet my husband for Happy Hour, and I was pleasantly surprised! Our server, Maki, was incredibly helpful; she answered all my questions and provided a great recommendation when I couldn't decide between two dishes. I ended up choosing the Chicken Waffle, along with some fries and a Frose, while my husband ordered sliders and a soda. Maki frequently checked in on us to ensure we had everything we needed. When I requested a to-go box, she even provided a small cup of syrup for my waffle. I never had to flag her down, and her recommendation was spot on—it was delicious! This was some of the best restaurant service I’ve experienced in years! I'll definitely return and be sure to ask for Maki!

Glad we stopped by for a late lunch. What we ordered were delicious. Great food and drinks, awesome vibes being there. Definitely recommended!
