"One of our favorite San Diego treats is the Mexican street corn from the Taco Stand. The Taco Stand is a La Jolla local favorite for burritos, and unless you arrive early (or late), expect to find a line. It is one of our family must stop visits in San Diego!"
"The Taco Stand is a popular counter-order taco stand with limited indoor seating. Everything is made-to-order. We like the spicy shrimp tacos and al pastor tacos."
"Established in 2009, Evolution is San Diego’s original vegan fast food outlet and the vegetarian’s answer to the universal fast food burger joint, including the drive-thru window. Following the successful formula of meat-centric burger joints, the restaurant has a menu of burgers, tacos, and wraps, including the gluten-free Evo Burger with either a black bean or house-made tempeh patty stacked with fresh lettuce, pickles, grilled onions, cheddar cheese, tomato, and a creamy Thousand Island dressing. Pair burgers with a side of chili cheese fries and organic shakes or smoothies."
"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."
"What we found: When I was researching San Diego vegan restaurants, someone in a local Facebook group suggested visiting Plant Power vegan fast food, saying that it was so good they were thinking of taking a trip to San Diego specifically to stop by this place. 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."
"For a quick bite, head to this friendly counter service spot in Ocean Beach. The menu is packed with vegan versions of fast food favorites, from crispy “chicken” sandwiches to chili “cheese” fries. For those with further dietary restrictions, the entire menu is cholesterol-and GMO-free, and the fries, sauces, and even sodas are made from organic and all-natural ingredients."
"If you’re more of the outdoorsy type, head over to Cabrillo National Monument. You can check out the vintage Point Loma lighthouse and take in gorgeous views of the city harbor. Try to time your visit with low tide, because you’ll be able to check out the tide pools for creatures."
"This 160-acre preserve marks the site of the first European visit to San Diego, made by 16th-century explorer Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo…"
"At C Level Lounge, you can get a beautiful view of the city skyline and harbor. It is a great spot for date night and for families that want to dine out. Even if you have a picky eater on your hands, they will enjoy the food here."
"I took my husband to C-Level for our Anniversary Lunch and man I just want to cry of happiness from this experience. We haven't been to C-Level since we first…”more"
"This ma n’ pa eatery has mastered the formula for golden-brown fried perfection. The titular entree (fish & chips) is hands-down a popular favorite because the delicate, fresh-caught fish is masterfully coated in a light tempura batter, flawlessly fried, and gently nestled next to a mound of scrummy steak-cut fries. The airy tempura batter is what sets Mr. Fish & Chips apart from other fried fares."
"While the pandemic has put a stop to indoor dining, locals in the Clairemont area still line up at this mom-and-pop shop for fresh fish and chips. Huge pieces of cod get the tempura treatment and come served with coleslaw and thick-cut fries. Two kinds of shrimp, jumbo and popcorn, are also worth a taste."
"Big things come in little packages, or in this case, restaurants. The Fish Pit is a small eatery serving up massively fresh and flavorful seafood. One of the best cheap seafood restaurants in San Diego, the Pit has a hip local college vibe with SDSU students and locals alike raving about their versatile menu of tacos, sushi, salads, and soups."
"Showcasing line-caught, sustainable fish, Fish Pit’s varied menu draws from a variety of cuisine types. On the menu, spicy tuna pops sit alongside a variety of pokes, tacos, sushi, fried rice and salads—all featuring seafood as the main ingredient. Call ahead for delivery and takeout."
