Nom Nom Reviews

My reviewing partner and I eating a deep-fried Snickers bar at the Del Mar Fair. We should've reviewed the fair food

I have always loved good food and for the longest time have secretly openly dreamed of being a food critic. Now that I have new career dreams, I no longer dream this, BUT I still enjoy eating food, critiquing it, and writing about it as one can see on my Yelp account. But Yelp is pretty limiting, so I decided to dedicate a part of my blog to restaurant reviews.

This is for you if you: 1) are a broke college student or you live like one, and 2) enjoy atypical, non-franchised San Diego eateries. Honestly, I’m probably only going to do these once a week at the most because my ass is broke. And you won’t see me reviewing Donovan’s Steakhouse anytime soon.

I rate atmosphere, food, service, and drinks (if applicable) on a scale from 1-5. Pretty much a no-brainer.

Another thing to keep in mind as you read this: my pricing system. I’ll be using a Yelp-esque dollar sign system, but unlike Yelp, I’m a lot more clear about exactly what these dollar signs mean:

$ = entrees are $10 or less

$$ = entrees are between $10 – $15

$$$ = entrees are over $15

Honestly, I probably won’t be going to any place where they serve entrees higher than $15, let alone higher than $20.

Now on to the reviews!
