Bushfire Kitchen - Del Mar: Reviews & Ratings
Food was great - but Trudi was the BEST! She wanted us to have the best experience- she recommended the Thai chicken dish. It was delicious. She was so attentive and kind. The only bummer was being charged for a corking fee and then, plot twist, no one had an opener Luckily a friend had one in their car. We were refunded for the fee. If everyone there had Trudis attitude- holy smokes that would be amazing
First of all...Trudi is AmazaZING! I'd come here just to hang out with her. (Pssst...She needs a raise!!) But the food is also delish!! I'm super picky about my brown rice...and theirs is always perfect! The butternut squash is #epicnessinmyface. The chicken curry is also fab. Highly recommend!
Love this local spot with many choices. Easy to park and not bad wait times. Trudy is amazing and very helpful!
The word, FANTASTIC does not begin to cover the service ... let alone the incredible food! Normally Tri-Tip is tough. Not there's!!! The BBQ Tri-Tip Sandwich was tender and a delight! WOW!!!
Our family of six all liked it. Food is fresh with some unusual spins, and portions are generous. I should have asked them counter server's name because she was great - middle aged with pigtails. Counter order with table service, not a lot of seating but pleasant environment and reasonable prices for the quantities. We'd come again if visiting the area.
I love Bushfire! The food is delicious, reasonably priced, and comes out super fast. Nice beer and wine selection, and soda made with cane sugar. Staff are always friendly. Half of the patio is dog-friendly, and the other half is sans pooches. Plenty of parking. This is definitely one of my favorite restaurants in the area, my go-to for a delicious, healthy, casual meal.
Haven't been here for a few months .. my husband and I used to come here often and loved the quality food !! Delicious ... then for a time .. it went down hill . We have it 3 tries and decided not to come here again .... Recently my friend wanted to come here for lunch ... and the food was great again .. and today I just popped in to order a sandwich .. I decided on the Nashville chicken sandwich ... oh wow !! It was amazing !! Had to take half of it home because it was so packed with grilled chicken and veggies and maple bacon with a tangy spicy / sweet sauce ... on a giant roll ! Yummy !!! I'm so glad I gave this place a second chance !! Super good !! We will be back again !!!!!!
Came into Bushfire So happy to see Trudy she is the best The four of us had a delicious lunch The American Burger amazing The guava cream empanada fantastic
Nice place to meet up for lunch that has something for everyone. I usually order their Green chicken curry or salmon bowls. Both have good portions that are perfect. It gets a little busy around noon but most of the time there's hardly anyone in line. Counter order and find your own table. There is a nice large outside patio in front and indoor seating. The people who work here are nice and patient.
Excellent service from Trudy! Super friendly and warm, went out of her way to make us feel pampered! Let us taste the beers, patiently walked us through the happy hour menu, when the beer tasted a little stale, she set up a brand new keg and gave me a fresh glass, then heated up wet napkins to clean our hands. Store is clean and comfortable but a little empty during 5pm Wednesday. Beers were delicious and great deal at 50% off 3-5pm HH time. Chicken wings were crispy and we liked the Nashville hot sauce. Beef empanadas were ok, a little dry and could use more flavor. Only minor complaint is the HH food pricing doesn't seem such a good value. Overall great service and great beer happy hour!
