"NINE-TEN offers an "Evolving California Cuisine" menu dictated by fresh products discovered during daily excursions to local artisan providers. Go for breakfast, lunch or dinner and sit inside the casually elegant interior or people watch from pet-friendly tables outside on Prospect Street. NINE-TEN has a kids menu for young diners featuring PB&Js, mac and cheese as well as other favorites."

"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."
"Located on the top floor of a tall building in Banker’s Hill, Mister A’s undoubtedly has one of the best views of San Diego. The setting and pricing reflect a formal dining atmosphere, but their casual happy hour is reasonably priced and frequently tops “The Best Happy Hour in San Diego” lists."
"A little ways outside of downtown, there’s nothing that compares to the view of Mister A’s. Big ol’ jet airliners will ride past on approach and departure, using the ocean as backdrop with the city skyline showing off its wares. The hype is real, with the food and drinks perfecting the tableau."
"Mexican restaurants abound in San Diego’s Old Town but my family’s favorite is Cafe Coyote. Children enjoy watching señoras in traditional dress making flour tortillas by hand on the restaurant’s patio. Bonus: diners can park for free in their own underground parking garage, a rarity in Old Town."
"From tortillas to tamales to salsa, Coyote Cafe; makes everything from scratch every day, on the premises. Start the day with a Breakfast Margarita, chilaquiles, menudo, or a chile relleno omelette. For lunch, try the chile verde, a quesadilla, tortilla soup, or a taco salad."

"There are hundreds of Mexican restaurants that serve a San Diego favorite, the California burrito, but Lucha Libre sets itself apart for two reasons. First, it has a wrestling theme, complete with a gold champions booth for 24-hour advance reservations, which creates an unique atmosphere. But this version of a “cali b” also has shrimp, making it a surf n’ turf burrito, AKA the best of both worlds."
"Mission HillsWhat you're getting: Rolled tacos (three for $3.25 or five for $4.25)A threesome (or fivesome) of beef or potato rolled tacos smothered with a pile of lettuce, guac, pico, and shredded cheese (plus whatever salsa you like) makes a tasty lunch, and, unlike the enormous burritos sold here, after you polish them off, you might actually be able to contemplate eating dinner."
"Reserve the gold table with giant goblets, gold platters and your personal salsa bar for special occasions out with the crew. Our fave food here is the Surfin' California Burrito with steak, shrimp, french fries, and avocado. Young diners have a menu with choices like a cheese quesadilla or TJ dog with french fries and a drink."
"Just a step inside the Old Town Market and you’ll get a sense of what life was like several centuries ago when the city of San Diego was brand new.

"Ramen is the latest food trend that has taken San Diego by storm!. While authentic asian cuisine has always had a home on Convoy St, delicious ramen shops have been popping up all over San Diego. With two locations in the Little Italy and North Park neighborhoods, Underbelly is one of the highest rated ramen restaurants on Yelp and for good reason: it’s simply delicious!"
