Situated in Mission Valley, our 9,000 square foot brewpub includes a full service restaurant, an expansive and lush outdoor beer garden, and a pretty stellar team to make sure you always have good food in your mouth and a solid beer in your hand.

    Pretty pricey, just about $300 for 2 appetizers, 2 main dishes and 2 drinks with tax and tip. The food and service were great though and the place is beautiful.

    This was our fourth or fifth time dining at this Gravity Heights. Was excellent once again. Our server, Max (second time he was our services staff) is GREAT! The manager, Alex, visited our table more than once. Greatly appreciated. Lovely restaurant for a casual meal. The Mission Valley site has rapidly become our go to restaurants for a casual meal and relaxation.

    Waitress Erin and Chef Jesse are a dynamic duo who made our dinner experience at Benihana the best we’ve ever had! Erin was so attentive to us all, even on one of the busiest days of the year, Valentine's Day. Chef Jesse was a great entertainer, and his food was delicious! This was the first time my kiddo had no leftovers. We had the best time ever, and the food was terrific! Thank you, Erin and Jesse; you guys are the best!

    We have been going to King's Fish House for years. It is our go to place for fish that is always fresh and prepared well. Today I was there with an old friend for lunch--we specifically chose Kings because it is quiet enough to talk and we never feel like we are being rushed. There is a large parking lot and it is free. There is a large seafood selection including really good sushi rolls. (There are also some good non-fish options as well.) One of my favorite items is the trout almondine which comes with 2 sides. It is also possible to request that the fish and chips be done with panko crumbs instead of the beer batter--which is much lighter but still delicious. We shared the bread pudding for dessert which was plenty for 2 people.
