What Sydney O'Connell likes about Captain Kenos:
Food assessment should probably be 3/5 instead of the 4/5 I gave. The food is quite decent and they prepared my steak perfectly. But if I could evaluate value, it would be a 12/5!!! You cannot find a better price for good food in a diving bar anywhere in Socal. View all feedback. What Michael Coupe doesn't like about Captain Kenos:

Nestled in the heart of Encinitas, Captain Keno's is a beloved dive bar known for its rich history and unbeatable prices. While the food rates around 3/5—decent but not spectacular—the value is unparalleled, with meals and drinks priced at a fraction of competitors. The lively atmosphere, friendly staff, and loyal patrons create a welcoming vibe, perfect for any occasion. Despite recent challenges, including pandemic slowdowns, this nostalgic spot continues to offer hearty portions, affordable family meals, and a chance to gather with friends and locals before its anticipated closure in 2025. Don’t miss the experience!.
