"Love can make you feel like your head’s in the clouds as can the stellar view of the skyline and landing planes from this Bankers Hill classic. That’s probably why it's been the site of so many marriage proposals, Valentine’s dates, and special celebrations since it opened decades ago and especially since it was reimagined by owner Bertrand Hug in 2000. The upscale American menu features standbys like pork chops and duck breasts in their most classic forms as well as modern takes on dishes like swordfish and lamb with smoked date jam."

"A's just might be one of the best places to enjoy a skyline view of downtown San Diego, Coronado, Balboa Park and Point Loma, with the occasional plane landing or taking off from the airport.

Modern American cuisine is on the menu though dishes change based on seasonality of locally-sourced ingredients."

To wit: Mister A's requests business casual attire (collared shirts and closed-toe shoes for men) before 4:30 p.m. But that also means the fine dining at this institution is above reproach."

"Of course I could not forget Rubio's, the Godfather of the Fish Taco. It was Ralph Rubio who while visiting Ensenada ate his first fish taco and from that came a vision of fish tacos everywhere.

"If you’re looking for a quick, reliable bite to eat, stop into one of the many Rubio’s locations for fish tacos, quesadillas and other Mexican eats."

The festive, al fresco patio wall borders the sand and the ocean breezes are as relaxing as you might imagine. The California cuisine menu is made with fresh, local and free range ingredients."

"Pacific Coast Grill has an upscale but laid-back vibe as well as a breathtaking front row seat that's practically on the sand overlooking the water. Request a ground-level patio table so you can enjoy the sweeping ocean views. In addition to an unbeatable ambiance, the high-end seafood will satisfy your cravings."

"If you haven’t visited Pacific Coast Grill, it’s safe to say you’ll probably be awestruck by the on-the-beach dining. imagine the sound of waves lapping the shore, expansive ocean views, and amazing deck and patio seating. Go near sunset time and you and your date will not be disappointed."

Plant Power is located in a nice building on a busy intersection, and has its own parking lot and a couple drive-in terminals. It appeared to be very popular with the local vegan and veg-curious crowd."
