Dick's Last Resort - San Diego

Dick's Last Resort is a staple of the Gaslamp in San Diego, having existed since 1991 and boasting downtown's largest outdoor patio. Featuring "service with attitude", Dick's provides a dining experience unaparallelled in the cookie-cutter homogeny of 21st-Century sensibilities. Our expansive dining room seats up to 467 guests, with a semi-exclusive "pit" area that seats 164 guests. Our facility includes a stage with professional lighting, a top-of-the-line sound system, 13 flat-screen televisions, and a 100" projection screen. Our servers and facilities can be customized to handle any party with any level of candor, be it a raging bachelor party or a corporate retreat. We also offer two bars to serve our guests with a beer list over 90 varieties long and premium spirits. Dick's is the premiere location for parties of any size and for any occasion.

"Great for sassy party groups. Not so good for shy quiet types. Be ready to be rowdy."

"It seemed as if our server was new. She was boring. We watched another waiter do a great job with the table next to us. I noted in my digital reservation we were celebrating an 18th b-day, that was a buzz kill. Even when I mentioned this to our waitress still we watched 2 other tables be served cake rudely. We did not even hardly get attention good or bad. Don't get me wrong we had a beautiful waitress just the other guy working was GREAT ! We drove hr1.45 min one way to eat for $100. Will not recomend rather go to the one in Vegas, sorry."
