Great for a night out - always hosting karaoke! More than that, food is always delicious as well. It gets pretty busy at night during karaoke but there are lots of seating options as well including a large space out back.

Redwings has easily become one of my favourite dives in San Diego. Great atmosphere, free karaoke, and good selection of food & bevvies.

If you miss the service you don’t get in a touristy city… come see Tracy. Great place to watch sports and actually hear the games! Have some wings and tots and just relax. A gem in north park for sure.

I'm a fairly regular patron of Redwing and have been for many years. It is one of the best dive bars in San Diego that recently (about a year ago) got a bit of a refresh. It did not lose it's neighbourhood charm with the refresh though, thankfully. Tracy is my fave bartender! She remembers everyone even when you haven't been in the bar in a year. Somehow she even remembers how I love my turkey burger. That brings me to my point: Redwing turkey burgers are the best burger in San Diego. That is not an exaggeration either. I don't eat red meat and I hate veggie burgers well because they're always terrible and the black bean burgers are usually tasteless but when I found the turkey burger at RBG I ate one every day for about 2 weeks. I've turned hardcore carnivores into a lover of these burgers, too! I'm sure it is the juices and stuff on the grill from everything else that makes these so delicious but who cares they are...they should be sampled by everyone. They are always perfectly cooked with the right amount to char and are always super juicy and importantly they are not flattened to death by the chef. RBG has great drink prices and happy hours plus there is a fantastic jukebox and they have karaoke a couple/few times a week. If you come in and it's a bit crowded make your way straight through the bar out to the patio where there is a second bar. The patio bar is usually open Friday through Sunday.

Great N. Park bar for people watching, karaoke, decent bar food and specials. Try the burger and beer special around $7-8. Plus, they have an awesome outdoor area in the back, with an extra bar, for smokers or people who want some fresh air (cough cough). Bartenders are friendly and fast, which is important because this place gets packed!

in my mind, it used think of Redwing to be a dive bar however last time I was here with that karaoke, and it was a lively fun crowd

This place is amazing for Karaoke. Get here early during the weekend if you plan to sing. Drink prices are right, bartenders are RIGHTER! Vine during the weekend to get all your songs on the board.

We came here for karaoke night on a Friday. It was crowded but we were able to get our drinks fairly quick as there are two bar areas. We came in as a group and we were able to find spot for all of us to hang out. I loved the vibes as the guests were singing along. I got tater tots and fried pickles and they were tasty and reasonably priced. I would come back for karaoke night again.

I think they usually cater to people who are a bit older than me. I went there with a few friends and we had a great time with the karaoke and the drinks but most of the people were a lot older than us. It wasn't a problem obviously but it was an observation we all noticed. We still had a great time. The bartenders were super nice and got our drinks ready super fast. Karaoke has a really nice, big selection. Overall, we had a lot of fun! Definitely recommend

DO NOT COME HERE FOR SUPERBOWL unless you expect to NOT HEAR the GAME!! Food was great. Workers were plenty nice…. But there were many women who were jockeying for a date? Maybe? I’m not sure, but they DIDN’T STOP MAKING NOISE during the pre-show of GREENDAY or throughout the game. Watch it somewhere you will actually hear the game…. If you want to watch the game/ hear the commercials. THIS ISNT IT!!!! Unfortunately. I had had high hopes. 😞

I used to come here frequently and it used to be a great place but tonight we didn't even get served. The bartender kept saying he would get to us but after 19 mins we decided to leave.

I always come here hoping for fun because it’s the one karaoke bar, but the vibes of the people that work there are always so off. Makes me sad :(

I went on Friday August 22nd to celebrate my sister birthday. We were so excited to do karaoke as this was our first time & we looked forward to. Upon our arrival we went straight to the dj to sign us up and he told us it would be 2 hour wait. So we were just gonna stick around get some drinks and chill for a while. Then like 1 hr passed and i decided to go and see how far the list was and the dj disregarded my presence as i waited patiently. After the song was over i told the dj i would like to sign up and sing a song in Spanish and he said “ we are only taking punk rock or pop rock songs” and i was like but its a karaoke spot and theres no event that specifies that it was going to be a rock themed night. A lady that works there approached me and said “well its the djs birthday and since hes working on his birthday he gets to choose what we play.” I was honestly shocked by that response and reaction from an employee. I responded with “well its not my fault he didnt request the day off & now hes making these rules” & the female employee answered once again and said “its his birthday so hes not taking request” i was honestly upset for the fact that we were looking forward for a fun exciting night. I decided to just walk away and go to the back patio and enjoy the rest of our time there, disregarding what had just occurred for the sake of my sisters birthday celebration. At around 10ish i decided to head out and guess what song was playing “eenie meenie” by justin Bieber. This was not a rock song and i feel like i was being discriminated based on my song choice. How is it that because its the djs birthday hes able to choose the genre of the night and not allow someone to choose the song they want to sing.

The bartender we had is not friendly or welcoming. We have been here many times. The same person has treated us in a way that we’ve felt berated, less than, and like we are nothing compared to the people behind us. Please reconsider your front of house staff.

I went to the back bar and wanted to sit at a table, but there was water on the floor in the back. I noticed two tables were connected, so I shifted one slightly so I wouldn’t have to step in the dirty puddle or slip. Moments later, the bartender came up angrily and told me I wasn’t allowed to move the tables. I explained I was only doing that to avoid the puddle, but instead of addressing the actual issue, she was rude, aggressive, and disrespectful. The doorman at the entrance was also unfriendly. Staff should treat paying customers with respect — not hostility. Updated Review (in response to owner): I want to clarify what happened at the back bar. There was a puddle of dirty water on the floor, so I shifted one table slightly to avoid stepping in it. The bartender came up angrily, told me I wasn’t allowed to move it, and was extremely rude even after I explained why. The doorman at the entrance was also unfriendly. For the record, I did not “rearrange” furniture or block exits — I only moved a table a few inches because of the puddle your staff never addressed. I chose the tables in the back for privacy, and no, there were not “plenty of other tables” available at the time. Instead of acknowledging the puddle or how aggressively the bartender handled the situation, management keeps doubling down with excuses. The real issue here is not tables — it’s customer service and basic cleanliness. Actions speak louder than words — respectful service and a clean space go a lot further than excuses.
