Paradise Lounge And Grill - La Jolla

This is one of my favorite places to grab a bite to eat and a drink. I've never had a bad experience, and the staff is ALWAYS super friendly. You guys are awesome!Food: 5/5

Such a lovely little bar. Everyone was friendly even though we were clearly from out of town, the prices were great, and it was just a fun time all around.Service: 5/5

I became a regular here but once the manager Mike started running things this place went down hill. He can't keep the staff on point or fix customer issues. Also I'm a very chill woman and would go to this bar after work to relax and hang with some friends. But because the bartender April has personal issues with me I was told I couldn't return even though I never did anything to that girl. I've never fought with anyone, cussed anyone out or made a scene when I could have after being discriminated against. It so hurtful because I've witness alot of things at the bar and yet those people get to come back. But me, a Black woman can't because one person doesn't like me. . wow. Seems very discriminatory and harmful. There was no other options given to fix this and I've spent plenty of money as well as time here. I've partied at this bar for a year now and in Point Loma all my life, I'm a San Diego native so I'm VERY hurt by this.I'm also mad because this is unfair. Plenty of other regulars feel the same way. I want this to be made right and I hope to speak to corporate soon because this isn't right. She needs to grow up and stop being a bully. It's sad because we were cool at one point but one time I didn't give her a tip because her service was trash then from there she's made me a target. I know legally you can't ask for tips but I've heard her ask plenty of times and cuss people out who didn't tip BUT management protects her and allows her to treat ppl this way. She literally told a young man that he wasn't important and shouldn't drink if he couldn't tip her. People go to dive bars to relax not be harassed and tips are mandatory. Also most of us tip based on services. I'm a professional woman and I don't like everyone I work with but I would never do ppl wrong because of personal issues. My managers also wouldn't allow this from a good customer hence my comment about Mike. Like we are adults and out of high school. I wasted my gas, time, and energy after a long day of traveling and work just to be told I had to leave because of one immature bartender.Parking: Not bad at all

Great place, even better staff! Come for the drinks, stay for the people. Food is pretty fabulous as wellFood: 5/5
