This place is amazing, and I’m sad not to live close by anymore! The food is delicious, I will definitely dream of those tater tots, and the beer rotation is a 10/10! The owner and the servers are so nice. Y’all have really done a great job creating an enjoyable and welcoming environment! Lana will definitely miss rolling in your grass; thank you for being so kind and patient with her!

I love this place! The friendliest staff, the best food, the best drinks, and all at the best prices. (I really need a thesaurus)…My new favorite neighborhood tavern. Update: still awesome fish tacos are gigantic and tots were perfect…oh ya, also cold beer.

Came for Tuesday tacos and they were delicious! I’d call them “elevated street tacos.” Korean steak and avocado were particular favorites. Service was good. Patio was enjoyable.

Met up with some good friend for taco Tuesday. It was a full house but found some seating. (There is a couple of tables inside and in the front patio, but most of the seating is outside on the side of the building). Very relaxed, backyard feel making it feel like home. They have weekly specials Tuesday-Friday (see photos of menu)

This place is a must go. Pours were heavy and the staff was delightful. The food was the biggest surprise!! The Korean tacos were delicious and the ceviche was exceptional for the price. Cannot forget a side of tator tots because they come out crunchy and are the perfect compliment to enjoying an evening here

Pretty expensive for some regular street tacos, unless you come on Tuesday you are going to be paying a lot of money for just a few tacos, garlic parmesan fries had giant pieces of garlic and lazily thrown on top cheese, tots had little cheese and most of it was in the corner of the plate, tacos were good but expensive and not enough food for a regular person. The atmosphere was nice but the quality of food was not great.

We are New Englanders that moved to Vista for 7 years and came to love the 508 tavern. We moved backed to New England 2 years ago and came back to visit sunny San Diego. After a 5.5 hour flight, jet lagged and all- our first stop had to be the 508…it was exactly the same vibe, amazing food/beer and most of all the service. Thank you 508 for staying consistently special!

I’ve been here many times for happy hour or some time with friends drinking, but never had their tacos before. Honestly, they were so good! Delicious and would totally recommend!

Neighborhood feel and atmosphere with a great tap list and the best bar food we’ve ever had. The owners are super nice and helpful too. If we lived in Vista 508 would be a regular stop.

Super cute tavern. After so many nights saying we really should go to 508, we finally went. And we kicked ourselves for not visiting sooner. We sat inside where there’s limited seating at the bar and a few other tables. There were a couple of TVs to catch the Padres game. And everyone just enjoyed their time. We’d all chime in on random conversations, then go back to our table’s conversation. Anytime someone new walked in, the whole room greeted them. The waitresses were just awesome – welcoming, conversational, funny. Fun front porch seating and a big tent oit thr side door for ample seating options.
