Top Restaurants in San Diego
"We had an absolutely amazing experience celebrating our 25th anniversary @ Eddie V’s. The service was excellent!. Rose petals on our table, complimentary..."
"Buona Forchetta is owned by Matteo Cattaneo, a born-and-raised Italian who was determined to bring a taste of his homeland to San Diego. Guests can choose from a wide selection of appetizers, salads, pizzas, pastas, and meat and seafood dishes. The excellent wine list is sourced from around the world and has a perfect pairing for every meal."
"Thanks to an owner and several staff members who hail from Italy, this Neapolitan-style pizzeria has an authentic feel that locals love. Its popularity shows—San Diego restaurants are rarely crowded, yet Buona Forchetta often boasts wait..."
"I was recently in Italy intent on eating my way through Rome, Florence, and Venice. Along the way I found incredible food unlike anything I have ever tasted in San Diego. That is, until I discovered Bouna Forchetta."
"If you’re looking for a solid taco or burrito, head to Taco Stand. It’s inspired by the taco stands of Tijuana and Baja Mexico and busy for a reason. It’s best to go on the early side to avoid peak lunch and dinner crowds (or opt for takeout)."
"If you’re craving for Mexican delicacies, you are in for a treat!. Experience authentic Mexican food at The Taco Stand."
"The DePhilippis family would like to welcome you and your family to visit our restaurants to Celebrate National Pizza... From a family line of restaurants that dates back to the 1950s, this place serves authentic Italian cuisine for all. Kids get to choose from spaghetti, ravioli, or lasagna with choice of meatball or sausage."
"Little Italy offers an abundance of Italian restaurants, which is no surprise. It’s tough to narrow down recommendations with so many scrumptious menus. But if I could send you for one dinner in this delightful area of San Diego, adjacent to downtown, I would direct you to Filippi’s Pizza Grotto."
"For a taste of Italy in San Diego, grab a table at Filippi’s Pizza Grotto. With 15 locations throughout the greater San Diego area and beyond, Filippi’s Pizza Grotto is a household name. Filippi’s serves Italian fare including pizza, pasta, and classic entrees such as Chicken Parmigiana."
"Chef Patrick Ponsaty’s will tempt you with his menu (Oscetra Petrossian caviar, lacquered Maine lobster, côte de boeuf for two) and you’ll be seriously seduced at table 3, an ultra-elegant private space with it’s own magical chandelier. 6106 Paseo Delicias, Rancho Santa Fe. (858) 771-1871 or ponsatys.com"
"Pizzeria Luigi is serving up New York-style pizza in sunny San Diego. Go in and grab a slice or two from one of their three locations scattered about SD."
"This distillery is already one-of-a-kind for their innovative and eco-friendly distilling. Their Lingo Vodka is the first in the world to be self-infusing. Their spirits are distilled up to six times and all their ingredients are organic - plus, their packaging are BPA-free."
"Taco lovers can revel in something new at all City Tacos locations!. The taqueria has introduced two new styles of tacos, Caseros Homestyle Tacos and Tacos Dorados, to its core menu with the return of outdoor dining. Caseros Homestyle Taco selections include Costilla de Res en Salsa Verde and Cochinita Pibil—slow cooked pulled pork in a traditional Mayan achiote sauce, pickled onions, served with a semi-spicy serrano habanero creamy green salsa."
"Located in trendy North Park, City Tacos is definitely the best hipster street taco spot!. This place is extremely innovative with their menu. You’ll end up ordering way too much food under the pretense of, “I just want to try it”."
