Same corner. Same tables. 80 years of La Jolla sitting down together. 🇺🇸 Happy 4th from The Ranch — here's to America's 250th and everyone who's pulled up a chair since 1945.

Between our Al Pastor, NASCAR races, Padres games, and the World Cup — who could ask for a better Father’s Day? 🙌

Al pastor done right. 🍍🌮

Smoky, caramelized pork + fresh pineapple salsa, cilantro, red onion, and a squeeze of lime — this is what Fridays are for.
