Nicky Rottens in Coronado, CA is more than just a bar & burger joint. We are a local small business & community advocate that loves & supports our military.

We’re located inside a restored, brick-walled 1926-era building on Coronado Island, and with nearly twenty 75” flat screen TVs, every seat is the best seat in the house – the perfect way to watch the big weekend game on a (really) big screen. At Nicky Rotten’s, we’re proud to call ourselves part of this awesome Coronado community in San Diego – we love locals, and we want to meet you! Come and try your hand at our huge burgers, or just hang out with a beer on our dog-friendly patio with your four-legged friend, which boasts an unobstructed view of the San Diego Bay and the downtown skyline.

    We went to watch the Padre Game. They have great food. Large servings so you can share one meal. The service was ok. They seemed to be short staffed. At one point, we spilt water and no one helped clean it. We had used all the napkins and water was on the floor. One guy delivered food and we told him we need help with clean up and he never came back. It took about 15 minutes for our waitress to come back and then we asked for napkins and it took another 10 minutes for that and towels at that time we had to clean up. We just always seemed to wait for drinks and ordering.

    Went to watch Monday Night Football and have dinner with friends visiting from out of town. Place was packed, but we got right in because of our OpenTable reservation! Good energy crowd and friendly service. Prices are a bit high, especially for appetizers, but portions for entrees were generous and hey you're in Coronado so it's kind of expected that most everything is pricier in general. Overall, good food & drinks and a fun time. We'll be back! :)

    I'm not going to lie, this was my first time here, I've driven by so many times but never stepped in, shame on me. This burger joint is so good, I've tried the hoffa jalapeno burger, one beer and a mezcal jalapeño margarita. All good, definitely going back soon. Cheers!

    We had reservations for after the Coronado Bridge run. We were promptly seated, but the service was terrible. Our waitress got us drinks (4 waters and 1 wine) after about 20 minutes. She took our order and that was the last we saw of her. After about 40 minutes 2 of our 4 entrees were delivered. The 3rd came about 10 minutes later, and the fourth is another story. 15 minutes after the 3rd entree came out, we inquired about the 4th and were told it would be at our table in 2 minutes. After another 15 minutes, we asked again and were told the same thing. The fourth entree arrived another 10 minutes later. Everyone was finished eating and drinking by the time the last entree arrived. All entrees were cold, when they were supposed to be hot. Service was atrocious. Food sucked. Pass right by this place next time you're in Coronado.
