Ballast Point Brewing Company's research & development location in Little Italy with 25+ beers on tap, cider, hard kombucha, full wine list, and an eclectic New American menu. Our dedicated team of brewers constantly explore new tastes and techniques to create adventurous and GABF award winning beers. Just like our approach to beer, the kitchen only sources the best possible ingredients, including steroid and antibiotic free proteins, line-caught fish and local produce when available. Please note that our location is counter-style service and all orders are placed with our experienced beertenders. When you arrive on site for your reservation, please check in with the bar. Come for a flight of beer, enjoy a smash burger, fill a growler, or get a keg - whatever the reason, we'd love to see you.

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.

No table service. We had a large group but couldn’t sit at a table. It’s under the flight path of SAN so loud, low flying planes every 10-20 min.

Everything was good except the kale salad. It was just all kale. The beets and squash were minimal and tasteless. Beers were great and burgers were solid.
