"What is it: Hip seafood house buzzes with blingy, Vegas-worthy interiors and expert cocktails. Why go: Boisterous Little Italy spot might not be the seafood restaurant your grandparents had in mind—shellfish platters range from Big, Bigger to Holy Shit—but groups of stylish youngins keep things humming with Mai Tais and plates of local uni, grilled octopus and buttery lobster rolls. Swing by the marquee bulb-lined bar during the weekday happy hour for $1 oysters and $7 paloma cocktails."

"It hasn't been around that long but some are already claiming that Oscar's Mexican Seafood is the best Mexican in San Diego. A hole in the wall near a smoke shop and a dive bar, this gem is casual with a to-go atmosphere and very little seating.

End your meal with a delightful dessert such as crème brûlée, cheesecake or perhaps some Italian gelato."
