Draft South Mission - San Diego

If you find yourself at Belmont Park or Mission Beach, the views are fantastic. The staff, both servers and bartenders, are friendly and attentive. It is a bit pricey, and although I didn't have a drink, the beverage selection is extensive.

The menu is very limited and each entree costs an average of 20 dollars per person.

The salads and other dishes at this restaurant were fantastic. The beer menu could use some updating, but the great atmosphere more than made up for it.

Nestled along Mission Boulevard, Draft Restaurant presents a delightful dining experience set against the backdrop of a picturesque beach view. While the wait was a touch longer than anticipated, the restaurant's inviting atmosphere and the attentive, professional staff set a positive tone for the evening. Our meal commenced with the Truffle Parmesan fries, a delectable indulgence featuring a rich truffle aioli, parsley, garlic, and Parmesan cheese. While the flavors were delightful, a slightly heavy hand with the salt detracted just a bit from the overall experience. For our main courses, we savored the Cerveza Battered Fish and Chips, showcasing local rockfish delicately beer-battered and served with malt vinegar tartar sauce, spicy slaw, grilled lemon, and a generous portion of French fries. The dish was executed well, though the portion size might have left some diners craving a bit more. The Pistachio Crusted Salmon Sandwich, adorned with lemon aioli, a satisfying pistachio crust, arugula, fennel, and a dijon glaze, was a flavorful delight nestled within a brioche bun. The accompanying French fries were a perfect complement to this well-balanced dish. Throughout the meal, the staff's attentiveness and professionalism shone through, adding to the overall enjoyment of the evening. Despite minor areas for improvement, the food at Draft Restaurant exceeded expectations, offering an above-average dining experience. For those seeking a culinary adventure amidst a charming beachside setting, Draft Restaurant beckons with its inviting ambiance, attentive service, and a menu that promises to satisfy.

Came in tonight to just order two burgers for takeout and sat at the bar to for the food to be prepared. My bartender (should have got her name! gave me water as I waited. Unfortunately the food took about an hour to come out due to some ticket mishaps in the kitchen. In the meantime though my bartender graciously comped me a beer I had previously decided not to get since the original expected wait was closer to 15 min and I didn’t want to chug it down. Once the food was brought out she shared that her manager also discounted the ticket as a way to make up for the wait. While I was content waiting (Friday night, new years weekend, I expected a bit of a wait I was very grateful for the service provided. Above and beyond— thank you blonde bartender!
