What People Are Saying About Dick's Last Resort Restaurant
The Owner

The massive appeal of Dick's is hard to put your finger on. We don't know if it's the wacky tacky decor, the sometimes sassy service, or the bountiful buckets of fabulous food. We do know that the food's hot, the beer's cold and if the music's too loud, you're too old. We're Dick's, where it's fun for all, all in fun--for all that dare to enter. Check out our party packages, like the Bachelorette Party: For only $16.99 per person, you get a choice of 1/2 lb peel 'n eat shrimp, 1/2 honey roasted or BBQ chicky, 1/2 slab BBQ pork ribs, chicky caesar salad, Roadhouse chicky salad, or the Mae…

In Short – Expect a semitropical, ultracasual place with tall drinks and no dress code (unless you count Hawaiian shirts, which are encouraged but not required). Popular with tourists, it's also a fave for bachelorette parties and rowdy brunch crowds. The all-purpose, Southern menu is heavy on seafood and barbecue items, many of which are served in stainless steel pails. Choices include shrimp, king crab, ribs, honey-roasted chicken and sides like coleslaw, fries and honey wheat bread.

Obnoxious!
by evb4330 at Citysearch
Okay, it's pretty much known that this place has rude service - mabye they think it's kitchy and charming. The worst part of this place is the insanely obnoxious staff up front whose job it is to holler at people walking by to try to get them to eat there. Seriously, you're embarrassed for them and embarrassed to be sitting there.
If the food were awesome, maybe it would be worth it, but...
- Pros: None really...unless you like mediocre food and bad service
- Cons: Obnoxious hosts/hostesses hollering at passerby

This is a Must Stop By!
by donzi007 at Citysearch
Nice and Polite NOT ON YOUR LIFE! And I LOVED IT! These guys are good. Hecklers don't stand a chance. Visiting San Diego near the Convention Center or the New Stadium, This is a Must Stop By! A burger is a burger and Pizza is Pizza and a beer is a beer. To each his own but the atmosphere will stop you in your tracks. I tell everyone that is visiting SD, CAL, that they must visit the LAST RESORT!

So-So food, fun atmosphere, HORRENDOUS service!!
by haileyy at Citysearch
Okay, so I have been to Dick's a couple of times and I realize it's their "thing" to have rude servers and its all part of the atmosphere. But seriously, sometimes they really cross the line. First off, when our waiter gave us the bill for a party of 8 he kind of jokingly stated that he "deserved" a 20 dollar tip. Then I realized he hadn't charged me for my soup and I could have easily not paid for it but I believe in Karma so I notified him, at which point he said he could let it slip by if he got a 25 dollar tip. Okay, wtf. The soup was only 4 dollars!!!
So not surprisingly, we ended up not giving him a huge tip because he was waaay too pushy and let's face it, the food is not really worth the price anyways. But when he came back to return our cards and whatnot, he loudly remarked to us at how cheap we were for only giving him a 10 percent tip. Seriously, what was he expecting??
- Pros: good for groups, ambiance, good band
- Cons: service, food, prices, cleanliness
