We prefer the burgers here over Hodaddy's, plus they have a far more varied menu: Brian's 24 | San Diego Restaurant | Open 24 hours | Gaslamp |, but call before you go because Yelp has marked them "closed". If they're closed, that's news to me because they advertised in the most recent SD Reader.

Just walked by this weekend. Closed.

I recommend Bare Back Grill. They have all grass fed organic juicy goodness. Fun place too.

@clevelandgal, he has been in bootcamp and they have them on a strick diet but just cause he is training.. so when he writes me he says he is really looking forward to eating again especially a hamburger..

Thank you guys for your info, i will google them up and see where they are at, we are staying in one of the hotels in OldTown but i am sure he would like to explore SD once he is with us..

Surprised to hear that Brian's has closed. I thought it was a pretty popular place.

Yes, it's Hodad's and not Hodaddy's.

There are at least a couple of places downtown named "Brians". One has closed. The one I'm referring to is the one on sixth street, right next to the Marriott. (In fact, they provide room service for the Marriott.) I'd be amazed if that's the one that closed.

Sorry guys....ADD moment. We went by for some grub this weekend and the place was locked, with no lights on. Not sure if it was closed for some reason, but was def closed when we went by.
These days, its not surprising to see it. This is exactly how Bondi closed...just one day, doors locked and never opened again. Frozen in time.
