We had an early Sunday dinner at Bully s East and were hoping for the same/similar menu to the other Bully s locations that have gone out of business (we used to go to Bully s in Bird Rock then Bully s in Del Mar for around 30 years). The Bully s East menu is similar with a focus on meat/prime rib but less-varied than the old Bully s (i.e., no prime rib quesadilla or beer battered shrimp), and several items on the menu were not available; however, the Bully s East location had an extensive Sunday brunch menu that was not available at the old locations. The service was friendly but slow (i.e., the scoop of butter for the baked potato was melted and the dinner plate was scorching hot as if the plate had been sitting under a head light). The restaurant is newer, cleaner and more spread out for Covid distancing but less personal/less personality than the old Bully s. The food was fine in terms of quality and portion size, and you get a free mud pie on your birthday.
