Beyond their size, small businesses are defined by their spirit. And at the helm are their intrepid founders—scrappy, ambitious, and resilient. They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
Super great food and staff! Our waitress was awesome and the food had great flavor. The fried pickles were perfect. The brisket sandwich had some great flavor combinations! Would absolutely recommend to anyone! The frozen huckleberry lemonade is a must try and the Pineapple Express martini is as well. Love it
Staff was awesome and everything was delicious. Incredible food & cocktail presentation and has great ambiance on the patio. Can’t wait to go back!
BeachFire Bar & Grill is a true local gem. It’s one of our favorite spots—laid-back, welcoming, and full of charm. Whether you’re heading to the beach or just want to hang out and enjoy live music, this is the place. It’s the kind of spot where us locals love to gather, and it never feels stuffy or pretentious. I had the pleasure of getting a private tour from Sergio, who’s been with the restaurant for 23 years. He calls it his second home, and his passion shines through. He shared the story behind the wood throughout the restaurant—salvaged from the Mission in San Juan Capistrano—which adds a layer of history and warmth most people don’t even know about. The current owner, Edgar Carbajal, is also a local who started as a young bartender and worked his way up to owning the place. You can tell the entire team loves where they work and takes pride in what they do. Delicious food, amazing atmosphere, friendly faces, and live music—this is everything a great community spot should be. Can’t recommend it enough!
Kiara was simply perfect! We received such kind and attentive service! The atmosphere was clean and inviting. The food was absolutely delicious; we recommend the veggie omelette from the brunch menu as well as the Vaquero? burger! The buffalo cauliflower was also SOO good! YUM! The kids cheeseburger was also delicious! The kids menu is verbal so if they don’t give you one, just ask for it from your server. Would definitely recommend this place for lunch/brunch!
Good snacks! I loved the fried pickles. Dog friendly. Good spot to swing by on a beach day. They seem to have music band on and off too so if you pick the right day you’ll be able to enjoy even more🎶
