I've been to Joe Sensor's a number of times.  As sports bars go it's alright and from what I've heard from a friend who worked there Joe is a good guy.  He was in the Antonio Gates style in that he was a decent college basketball player who became a tight end. 

Oh, and I've been to Matty B's, owned by Vikings center Matt Birk.  Birk is a bright guy but it doesn't show in his restaraunts.  Just plain terrible on all fronts.

The only place I can think of that I've gone to is Seau's in Mission Valley.  I met Reality, Dennis and SteadyEddy at the bar to watch the Lakers vs Nets in the Finals.  Reality got crazy and started mooning the Net's fan at half time.  FYI he had a K tattoo on one cheek and an 8 on the other.  I wonder if he's updated his tat's like he updated his jersey collection.

Been to the Dan Marino steak place at the Hooters casino in Vegas.  Not that great.  I wasn't expecting much and they delivered  up to my expectations.
