San Diego Cheap Eats: Tasty Food With Good Prices
"Eddie V’s will be serving a traditional Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings this year – complete with Brioche Sage Stuffing and hand-whipped potatoes, to name a few!. If you’re not feeling festive, you can always order from the regular menu; no one could blame you for eyeing the Chilean sea bass or lobster tacos at this well-known seafood destination in La Jolla. Both menus will be served from 11:00am-9:00 pm."

"Best for: good foodLocation: 3001 Beech St., San Diego, CA 92102Menu. No visit to the city is complete without a stop at this San Diego staple. Buona Forchetta lives by a simple motto: “Keeping it fresco, semplice e delizioso!"
"Next up is South Park's Buona Forchetta, at 3001 Beech St. (between 30th and Fern streets). With 4.5 stars out of 2,315 reviews on Yelp, the Italian spot, which offers pizza and more, has proven to be a local favorite."
"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)."
"You may have heard San Diego’s a great place for Mexican food, but that's not quite accurate. Instead, what you're getting is Cali-Mex: an Americanized version of what you'd find south of the border."
"Undeniably authentic Mexican in a casual spot walking distance to the beach. A local favorite is the adobado tacos, which they roast on a spit right at the restaurant."
"Filippi's Pizza Grotto has been family owned and operated since 1950 and all the food is prepared using traditional family recipes that restaurant founder Vincent DePhilippis brought with him from Italy. There is a good selection of traditional Italian pizzas and the menu also offers lighter fare like soup, salads, and sandwiches. There are a number of pasta dishes as well, including spaghetti, ravioli, lasagna, and macaroni."
"Filippi’s Pizza Grotto is one of the best go-to spots for good Italian food and is famous for its delicious pizzas and its meatball subs. There can be a wait at this popular spot, but it is one that loyal customers are willing to endure. Visit Filippi’s and their décor will make you feel like you’re in Italy."
"Filippi’s Pizza Grotto Little Italy has used old Italian recipes in creating their dishes since 1925. They have numerous dishes on their menu. All of the dishes are prepared with the best ingredients available."
"A family-friendly mini-museum dedicated to the American Revolution and continental cuisine meet at this two-story venue located right off Interstate-5. Dishes like New England chowder, Maryland crab cakes and Connecticut lobster rolls remind diners of the space’s New England leanings while other items like sesame seared ahi tuna salad and fish tacos bring a contemporary edge to the menu. Insider tip: Admission to the museum is free."
"The Green Dragon Tavern and Museum brings a little bit of East Coast U.S. colonial history to San Diego museum. The fact that it’s a tavern means that you can tour the free museum with a glass of wine or beer in-hand (that you’d need to purchase, of course). Exhibits include significant, original documents signed by John Hancock, Sam Adams and others."
"Sugar Factory is known the world over for its celebrity-endorsed Couture Pops, which have turned sweets into the latest designer accessory. We now have locations in some of the world’s most cosmopolitan cities, including Las Vegas, New York City, Bahrain, Chicago, Miami, Dubai, Orlando and...Mehr"

"Established in 2004 by a mother-and-daughter duo, Sugar Sweet Farm offers families one of the best fun things to do in San Diego, California."
"Someday we’ll be able to stop referring to time in pre-and post-pandemic terms, but for now, we’re just so incredibly grateful to our restaurant community for their steadfast dedication and for pressing ever forward when things seemed impossible to overcome. Even more incredible are the fearless entrepreneurs who forged ahead with new ventures despite the uncertainties of opening during an active pandemic. And so it’s with well-deserved thanks and high-fives that we proudly present our list of the most exciting new restaurant openings in San Diego:"
"You thought wrong — the duck fat fries at Searsuckers, one of the restaurants of Top Chef alum Brian Malarkey, are fried in rendered duck fat, giving them a rich flavor."
"Moonshine Flats is a ton of country fun in the Gaslamp Quarter. It's one of two places in San Diego to dance to country. The 10,000 square-foot venue features multiple levels, dozens of interactive elements, five bars throughout, including the longest bar on the west coast spanning 80 feet, San Diego's largest dance floor, two raised platforms for dance exhibitionists, a 6' x 6' raised "dance pod" and a moveable DJ booth, a large stage that hosts house bands in front of a floor-to-ceiling LED screen."
