I wish I could give this place 10 Stars. I'm 58 years old,and I been a Bar Fly all my life. This place officially took the Brass Ring with the All You Can Eat Tacos for $5. I was expecting some Taco Bell type Crap. Boy! Was I shocked! It was a legit spread,and you could eat as long as you kept sitting there enjoying yourself. Nice folks. Ended up bombed on the patio. Nobody screwed with my good time. Do this,or don't,it's your loss!

American Junkie is a fun place if you’re looking for a lively night out in the Gaslamp Quarter. It starts off as a sports bar and later turns into more of a party spot with music and dancing. The atmosphere is energetic, and it’s a good place to hang out with friends. The drinks and food were decent, and the service was fine. Overall, it was a good experience, although nothing particularly exceptional. If you’re looking for a casual night out with music and a fun crowd, it’s a solid option.

A true American sports bar, surpassing anything your imagination may dream up for you! Once you step inside of American Junkie, You are greeted by wall-to-wall televisions. Tuned in to the latest live sporting event. You are quickly ushered to a clean, well positioned table, Booth, or bar stool, we're an attentive waiter, waitress or bartender will assist you and meet your every need! The food is exceptional, and well priced. The quality of the food surpasses any bar, food expectation! The pizza is the best in San Diego! El Presidante and Barstool Sports would love this place! I highly recommend it. Just plan to be there for a whole afternoon or evening. You are going to make friends, and enjoy the company of the other patrons! It's amazing!

Was visiting San Diego and went on a Cisco live week ! The whole downtown was crazy and it was crowded . We were walking through the downtown and found this place . One of my friends suggested this . The place was huge and they had lots of tables inside and outside the restaurant! The bar was vibrant and they had some variety of beers on the tap . We had blue moon and it tasted a bit watered down. We then had the hazy IPA and it was really good . Lots of options to choose from . The issue was - SERVICE !! For so many people sitting in bar , there was only one bar tender and it was making the whole process so slow ! Once we get an order , it takes 10-15 mins for the next time someone comes and asks us .. with the higher influx of customers during Cisco live week- they should have hired more helpers . Food was good overall and wasn’t that pricey .! Price wise everything was normal and not too expensive . We had guac and chips and pizza and few other stuff . Everything was ok 👍 me For whatever I know and could taste like a PRO , I surely will give this restaurant a 4 star ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️

I came here for the CincoDeMayoSD Bar Crawl and had an amazing time!! The music and the atmosphere matched the vibe perfectly, and the all you can eat tacos for Taco Tuesday was delicious. The free Mexican candy shots we got were a perfect addition to the night. The staff were also very friendly, and would definitely come back again!
