Six security guards of this retail business wrongly discriminated against us, layed their hands on us, verbally and physically abused us, physically restrained us, and used aggressive physical force and illegal behaviors to get us to leave. Please don't support this local business. My boyfriend and I (tourists) had the worst experience of our lives at this place. According to them, we violated the law by simply stopping on a public crosswalk that was in front of this business place. We stopped only for a few seconds to wait for our friends and that's when we were harassed by this business' security guards, all 6 of them. Their behavior was unprofessional, outright inappropriate, questionable, illegal and simply crossed the line. If they did this to us that we only stopped for a few seconds to wait for our friends, I don't want to image what else they've done to other innocent people and how they have abused their power. These security guards acted above the law and used their authority/power to violate our rights. That's why I'm kindly asking for you not to support this business that has employees who think they are law enforcement and act above the law. Let's not allow this retail business and their security guards continue to violate our rights. Thank you for your time!

It was nice to eat outside in the gaslamp district. The service was soooo slowww. Our server was friendly, but we were at our table for 15 min before we were acknowledged. We were there an hour before our burger came. After asking for the check we waited another 15 minutes for it. And it was NOT busy. It was after 8 and there were only a few tables. The shrimp app was delicious and the gametome burger was very good too. Tots were cold. Just an ok experience.

Probably the worst experience with club staff I’ve ever experienced, the girls were so rude screaming at us and the security were not understanding or helpful in any way. Felt very unsafe and disrespected. My phone was pick pocketed and nobody seemed to care their response was just that everybody loses their phone, employers have lack of empathy and understanding of different peoples situations. Would not recommend to any friends !!

It's a pretty small establishment to be honest. But it was my first time going there and I had a pretty fun experience. The crowd and music were pretty hype - not what I initially expected from a San Diego bar/club. I would visit again when I'm back in the area.

Fun place with great jams and drinks.
You can pay $20 to get on stage and spin the wheel for a wild experience and a decent drink.
Can get a bit cramped, but everyone's dancing

A nice setup on the gaslamp district.
We had outdoor seating but indoor was pretty good too!
We went for brunch which meant brunch menu. Not many vegetarian options for brunch menu.. I do wish to see that. The taste of the food was pretty average. The nachos were soggy. So my rating is definitely for the place and the vibes. For food I would down to 3/5
I would have loved to try out the pizza. So hopefully will get to travel over to San Diego again! Cheers!

I was here for a private event during a conference. The entire venue was used for the event and American Junkie did an awesome job. Bartenders were fast and efficient. The servers that brought around appetizers did a fantastic job at keeping everyone fed. They would even take drink orders if asked. The food was tasty as well. Plenty of different places to sit and relax. There was music, but I could easily carry on a conversation. American Junkie was definitely one of the better places that I have attended an event at.

The bartender ladies were awesome! Personally, I'm just not into dance/night clubs, but if you are, some perks would be the raised dancing/cat walk, live dj, lights and foggers.
