One of the best hamburger places in San Diego. Their meat is the best whether it's beef, pork, ostrich, alligator and even the vegeterian option made with portobello mushroom is to die for.

Tioli's is perfect for a date or a quiet evening with friends. They have a very good selection of beers on tap, as well as wines and I have to mention the fries, also very good. This is a great place if you want to impress your boyfriend, he will love the burgers. Once I went there with a girl friend and she ordered a salad, to me that was a pointless thing to do, but she said it was very good.

Overall, a great place to go out for a burger.

Came here with the Friday Night Fun gang.Decided to come here during their Happy Hour from 9-11p.

The establishment is smaller than I thought. You walk up and order your burger and they bring your order out to you. There's a little bar area set up by the ordering counter. Luckily, we found a couple tables next to each other for our party of 7. Service was friendly and helpful.

Some of us decided to order several "different" burgers and split them among us - while others decided to stick with the usual, non-exotic burgers. We also shared some onion rings and sweet potato fries. The onion rings were really good. I could do without the SPF.

The adventurous foodies ordered the buffalo, gator, venison and wild boar. Here's my take:

-Buffalo: My fav out of the 4. Lean and tasted like an actual burger. I didn't use the horseradish sauce it came with since I don't like horseradish.
-Gator: I wasn't a fan. The smell really put all of us off, honestly. I'm not into Indian food, and there was some type of curry substance that topped the burger.
-Venison: Gamey. Not bad. I grew up eating deer since my Dad hunted, so it was ok.
-Wild Boar: The pear topping threw me on a loop. The sweetness took away from the actual taste of the burger. Therefore, I can't really comment on the taste of the meat, but I still ate it.

I think our carnivore adventures came to an end tonight... Well, for the meantime, I think we'll stick to the traditional burgers for the next FNF...

This burger place opened up a couple of years ago when I was still living in North Park. It replaced the old Italian restaurant, Tiolis and whilst it became a burger establishment, it kept the name Tiolis.

The service at the restaurant is nothing spectacular, having been there more than half a dozen times. The setting is a bit dark and awkward. Despite these drawbacks, the food is very good.

The burger menu is very extensive and they make unusual burgers such as gator, venison, antelope,and ostrich burger. I've tried more than 1/3rd of their menu and it's all been pretty good. I have leaned more towards their Texas and Cajun burgers because of the sauce/glaze that accompanies it.

Give this place a try. They also have a pretty decent size beer menu too.

Best burger Ive ever had, ever.

The burgers are always cooked to my specifaction, they are fresh and tasty. Love the generous portions of french fries and great selection of Beers. Great staff, great service, great fun.
