The Promiscuous Fork in La Jolla

We do A LOT of traveling, and we love to find “hole in the wall” restaurants because we find these types of restaurants to have the best food. The Promiscuous Fork has a GREAT vibe, EXCELLENT food, and the service was very good. Our food pictured was the La Jolla Plate, Pork Belly Mac N Cheese, and the Salmon Bowl. I am allergies to coconut and cannot have Coconut Jalapeño Rice that comes in the bowl, so they accommodated me by substituting my Salmon Bowl with mixed greens instead. We would definitely go back if we travel back to this town again!!!

Unplanned lunch pit stop to the Promiscuous Fork, and so glad we made it. Kind of tight indoor quarters but cool outside seating area.If you’re a garlic lover then you will love the “yuk-mouth”. Buns were buttered and toasted to perfection. Wife had the carnitas tacos which loved so much that she wanted to go back for dinner.For burgers and tacos, the Prices were a bit on the high end side, imo (i’m a out of towner so these may be “regular” Cali prices) but it was all delicious and worth it.

So tasty! As soon as we walked in we were greeted. She was super friendly, helpful and welcoming. We ordered our food and dined in. So freaking good! Tasted really fresh and the flavors. This was a solid choice and glad we popped in. We will by again next time we are around.

This little gem was right down the street from your hotel. We ate there our first night and liked it so much we had it again on our last night! The La Jolla plate is delicious. Its a simple dish but very tasty (I ordered it both times). The chicken was moist and the rice had good flavor. It comes with a macaroni salad, which was good but I loved that rice so much that the second time I skipped the macaroni and had rice. My spouse had a burger one night and chicken tacos the 2nd time. He enjoyed both. Its a small place with limited inside seating but there are tables set up outside. The staff are very friendly and your food comes out quickly. Great little spot for a quick meal (but not fast food).

1st timer here! Amazingly delicious blackened salmon bowl, would highly recommend! Very small restaurant but fun atmosphere.

Loved the staff, very welcoming and friendly! The burger was just ok, store bought buns made of cardboard and soggy vegetables.

Nice little eatery, enjoyed the outdoor seating and the host/server was really friendly. Food was solid, a lot of ways to do a burger wrong, not many ways to make it bomb. Wish we had one of these on the East coast.

Small space with good food. My wife loves the lamb chops and the yuck mouth garlic burger is fantastic. Almost always find one of the regulars drinking a beer with a burger at the eat-up counter. Great local spot.

The surf & turn grilled cheese sandwich was out of this world! Plus this place has some seriously friendly Hawaiian vibes. totally recommended!!

Fun, creative, globally inspired cuisine in a laid back, casual setting. The salmon tacos were delicious with moist, buttery blackened salmon complemented with crunchy cabbage, cilantro and a sweet and spicy sauce. It was aromatic with a nice balance of flavor and texture with Asian influences. Complemented with a side of fluffy, mildly sweet coconut rice. Will definitely come back.
