    Only able to order at the bar, both food and drink. Forget trying to reserve a table… I was told sorry we don’t have it outside and then I had to ask for them to push tables together inside. It doesn’t seem very organized.

    These people are awesome. I’m originally from Chula Vista and I live in Long Beach because all of the work for my trade is in LA, and every time I come home, it’s experiences like the ones I have at Ballast Point that make me rethink just WTF am I doing with my life and why haven’t I came home yet? BP for life.

    Our table wasn’t saved. Our reservation was for 5:15 and we weren’t seated until 5:50. This was only after we asked to talk to a manager. Food and location are great so it’s a bummer to not have good service.
