"If you’re craving for Mexican delicacies, you are in for a treat!. Experience authentic Mexican food at The Taco Stand."
"As San Diego’s first vegan fast-food restaurant, Evolution has set the bar high. It was one of the first restaurants in the city to adopt completely biodegradable packaging—what appear to be plastic utensils and containers are in fact byproducts of wheat and corn which will eventually be reabsorbed back into the soil. The familiar fast-food favorites are also exceptional—from the flaky fish street tacos to the In-N-Out-style EVO Burger."
"What we found: Evolution is the original vegan drive-through restaurant in San Diego. The menu features fast food classics like burgers, fries, sandwiches, wraps, as well as such California musts as burritos, tacos, and smoothies. There’s also a number of pre-made desserts stacked in a refrigerated showcase by the register."
"Evolution, located in Bankers Hill, serves vegan burgers, sandwiches and wraps, small bites, cakes, and more. And when they say fast, they mean fast—they even have a drive thru. Grab a sandwich and enjoy it at Balboa Park, which is just across the street!"
"Any item you would find on a typical fast food menu is proudly plant-based, non-GMO, organic and free from additives and preservatives. Get a “beefy’ patty for your burger or opt for the black bean version, on options such as the Big Zac (sound familiar?), the holy guacamole or mushroom swiss with a side of crispy fries or kale slaw. Kids can get a meal with chicken nuggets, mini corn dogs, or a cheeseburger and finish it off with a milk-shake, organic soda or kombucha."
"This intimate and romantic, yet lively, Spanish restaurant features brick arches, dim lighting and black-lacquered ceilings. House specialties include an ever-popular and classic paella and halibut with salsa and goat cheese. The tapas bar offers more than 40 options, and the back bar is a sophisticated place where you can enjoy a pre- or post-dinner cocktail while being serenaded by local salsa, merengue and Spanish rock bands."
"San Diego is a thriving city constantly welcoming visitors from around the globe. With its endless sunshine, ocean waves, countless trails and picturesque shoreline, visitors flock to America’s finest city for relaxation, reinvigoration and rest. Some come for the laid-back atmosphere while others come for the outdoor activities."
"This parakeet wall-covered cafe is located in the seaside town of La Jolla. It's a cute little cafe with an all-day breakfast menu and a ton of healthy food options. We really enjoyed their turmeric latte and gluten-free matcha waffles."
"There seems to be a trend in San Diego to have cute tropical shops decorated in pink and green!. The Parakeet seems to follow this trend, but they have added parakeets into their decor!. Again, this is a super cute spot!"
"Parakeet Cafe has a few different locations, each with a slightly different aesthetic. Another vegan-friendly location, there is something for everyone to eat here."
"Morning Glory is a breakfast diner with a modern, art deco twist!. Both the food and the décor are impressive, with an abstract morning glory light fixture framing its main entrance. A must-try, Instagrammable dish is the Japanese souffle pancake, which looks like a fluffy cloud on your plate!"
"Address: 550 W Date St, San Diego, CA 92101(619) 629-0302Check Out Their Menu Here$$ | Innovative Classics | Hole in the Wall. Overlook the city as you munch on some breakfast classics at Morning Glory. Fair warning, there will most likely be a wait but it is worth it."
