The Crack Shack - Little Italy

Alright, let's all be honest, it's REALLY easy for a place to screw up a chicken sandwich. The Crack Shack isn't that kind of place. The chicken was perfectly cooked, the seasoning was amazing, it had just the right amount of spice, and the fries that I got with them were a perfect pairing! The drinks here go really well with the food, too. Plus, I love that the place has an area for kids to play that's away enough from the bar so they won't disturb the guests. A must-stop if you're in little Italy!

Todays order was a Cali drip + avocado + fried onions and the biscuits with the bourbon maple butter…. absolutely delicious!!! This sandwich was my favorite so far, although I have enjoyed the double clucker. My kiddo always loves the chicken meal with carrots (or fries) and it comes with big cookies and apple juice with the price being incredibly reasonable. By far the best mini biscuits I’ve ever had, and chicken sandwiches!

There were mixed reviews from my husband and I when we visited this eatery during our SD vacation. We both got the Firebird sandwich and he seemed to love it while it was just not for me. The sauce seemed oily and flavorless. However, the chicken was juicy and tender. I wish they had a more varied menu. Overall I would recommend for the atmosphere, and I would need to go back to try other sandwiches!

Don’t avoid this place like I did…I usually avoid Crack Shack because of the line. This place will require more than one visit because everything is so good. We tried a few different sandwiches and cut them in half. Worst part of this experience is sitting at the one table that has no shade cover.

Visiting San Diego, before leaving we stopped at The Crack Shack, this place did not disappoint! Everything we ordered was very good and service was fantastic! I wished we have one at NorCal, hoping near future please! I had the power bowl, delicious, daughter had Coop DeVille, very delicious and moist, husband had the Firebird, he said it was awesome! We shareya side of fries, so crunchy and just the right amount of salty goodness. We tried all of their sauces, we specifically love love the pineapple mustard, I can drink that straight! We also tried their ube shake with cookie crumble, we got lucky, they only had one order left, this was so creamy and ubelicious! I'm glad we skipped breakfast and had this instead. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

The Crack Shack is a delicious all la carte Sandwich shop with 28 beers on draft and many taster cocktails. Atmosphere is a beautiful outdoor environment with plenty of seating and lots of shade. The staff are amazing and super friendly. I would highly recommend checking this place out. You won’t be disappointed. 🙌

We ordered the Señor croque, the Reubenstein, and an order of biscuits. The Señor croque was delicious. I definitely recommend that one. The Reubenstein was pretty good but not quite as good as the Señor croque. The biscuits themselves were good, but the butter that came with them was terrible. It was described as miso-maple, but it would have been much better if it was some sort of honey butter. Service was friendly and the atmosphere was nice. Parking is on the street.
