Hands down one of the best cocktail programs in Pacific Beach. You can’t beat their $6 all-day Espresso Martini it’s actually high quality and not too sweet. The interior is beautiful with a great mix of modern and coastal vibes. The service was attentive and the staff clearly knows their stuff when it comes to the drink menu. The food was delicious as well.Great spot for an afternoon drink or a pre-dinner cocktail. Will definitely be back!"

Absolutely amazing experience! The Monday oysters did not disappoint!! They had a plethora of different types and all of them were yummy in their own way. The crab cake and deviled eggs was sooo yummy as well!! I discovered this place on a whim and would 1000% come again. Our server, Morgan, was sooooo nice and sweet!

Bar Ella is an amazing addition to your PB afternoon or evening. I'm normally a dive bar or gastro pub sort of guy - and listen, I know most of the local's miss Bub's - but Bar Ella is a very unique option in PB and one that's very needed. We first came in by accident. Our usual dinner spot was slammed because of a game and we were on foot, so we went to the closest spot we could find to sit that seemed nice. We've been back at least four times since and each time it's been fantastic. Staff is amazing (Morgan took care of us last time). Cure decor. Food is unique for this area and perfect. Plates can be shared or eaten on their own. Fantastic craft cocktails. Great for dinner with friends, kicking off an evening out, or a date. We've taken our toddler and she loves it too.

Listen this is an easy going cocktail bar/restaurant that’s not as dude centric as other spots in PB. And it smells not gross. I’m only ever there on lowkey week nights and let me tell you, have the best deals. I went in on a Monday and got 12 oysters for $1.50 each and you know I enjoyed those lil boogers sumptuously. I loved the atmosphere so much I stayed around for some “Girl Dinner”. Which is just a bangin ceasar with fries and I added steak, for increased iron levels and protein obv the serving was most ambitious so I was able to eat “girl dinner” for breakfast the next day too! I like to go in on a cheeky Wednesday for their “Tinis and Weenies” $8 select martinis and $4 GLIZZYS WHICH ARE MOST BEAUTIFUL. Once I overheard this chic telling her date that Lemondrop Martinis are for teenage girls and he caved and got a different martini. so sad. Let the man enjoy his sugar vodka! Anyway always a pleasure to be eating and drinking here. I recommend the Sidecar martini on Wednesdays
