Calypso Bay Smokehouse - San Diego

This restaurant was fantastic! The BBQ ribs, brisket, and chicken were all incredibly tasty—so tender and flavorful. The cheesecake was one of the best I've ever tried. I highly recommend checking this place out. Be sure to grab a menu if you decide to eat here!

The food is excellent. We opted for the all-day deal, which made dining in the park quite affordable. The prices are $20 for a meat dish, $7 for a side, $7 for a dessert, and $4 for a drink. It can add up quickly!

The food was incredibly cold. They didn't even attempt to warm it up. Do they have any heating options? It felt like they just got some chicken nuggets from McDonald's and marked up the price. The heating plates weren't effective at all. I would never eat here again. Other places in the park at least make an effort to serve warm food, but here it seemed like they didn't even bother. What are they waiting for?

Do not waste your time to this, and do not get food all day. This is one of the few places you can eat with the whole day meal package. It's not worth it. It does not contain any of the snack lines so you need to wait in line for about a solid hour each time you want to eat something.

I bought 2 all-you-can-dine deals for my wife and me. We got there about 2 pm yesterday. We got in line about 3 pm at the Calypso Bay Smokehouse. I was in line for over 1 hour. By the time I got to the front 1 hour later they had no chicken and also no ribs. My wife and I really wanted ribs. We just spent $92 on passes and no ribs. You guys don't have enough people serving the food to get people through and out in a timely manner, not 1 hour. It looks like there is no MANAGMENT there.
