Miramar had quite a reputation for its Wednesday nights in the WOXOF & main bar as well as the parking lot outside.
Friday nights were for Oceana.
It was filmed in the 'Kansas City BBQ' in San Diego. It's still open and seems to survive based only on its association with the film. There's a pretty huge selection of patches from visiting aircrew on the wall now and a load of photos showing the filming.
Worth popping in for a beer but the food wasn't up to much.
