San Marcos classic you really don't know what you have until you walk inside. This place is amazing! Very wide open with a nice bar, pool tables, places to sit & eat and live music

Have been going here for almost 13 years. Great place to go have drinks with my best friend. The service is great and they offer some good food. I always try to visit whenever I go to California.
