Good for one thing in Roger’s book: a dog-friendly patio. The Black & Bleu burger was bland on a cold bun.

“Take yourself just south of the 8 for much better grub and dog- friendly spots!”
Three stars. The patio concept worked, but the Black & Bleu burger was bland and the brioche bun cold; the Cajun fries were the fresh part.
Stay in the neighborhood

Roger rated this Mission Valley Tender Greens 4 stars, noting it's bigger but also much more crowded than the other Tender Greens locations he's been to.

The Mission Valley outpost of The Kebab Shop, a chain Roger has followed since its East Village original (still his favorite location); lamb doner, shawarma and kebab plates all deliver, though parking and lunch crowds are the tradeoff.
A quiet Mission Valley coffee lounge Roger visited mainly to work or study; the coffee itself was just ok, but the calm atmosphere and couch seating made it a reasonable place to park for a while.
