The Craftsman is a "Dave & Tammy Tour Podcast" favorite! Our go-to choice begins with the truffle black popcorn, followed by their Craftsman Burger. They have a wide selection of wines and a good selection of craft beers. On Thursdays, expect a crowd, and that means LOUD! So, if you're looking for a romantic little spot for quiet conversation, this is NOT the place. But if you're out with pals and want to celebrate, you're on! Oh, and about those burgers, if you like them medium, order rare, as they tend to overcook most of their meat. The staff is friendly, management is attentive, and parking, plentiful. We love it! And if you visit and enjoy, but live closer to the water in Encinitas, consider Blue Ribbon, their sister restaurant. The food is equally good (if not better), the space is MUCH smaller, parking's a PITA, but the people are super nice.
The original review was positive overall; the specifics are in the experience above.
Honestly? Nothing worth bitching about.
Yes. The original review supports the recommendation.
THE LAST WORDGO — STRONG RECOMMENDATION.
