"As a seaside town, you might be expecting to try out some seafood and there is no better place than Eddie V’s. The restaurant offers fine dining with a casual vibe. Their patio offers a terrific view of the ocean and it’s not the only thing that will make you smile."

"Stop by Ironside Fish & Oyster on your visit to Little Italy for mouthwatering seafood. They promote an oyster culture that is deeply ingrained in coastal communities spanning from New England to the Pacific Northwest. The restaurant is located in a 4,500 square-foot, 1920s-era warehouse which rests in the heart of Little Italy."

"As much as people make fun of it, we’re suckers for a hipster restaurant in a converted warehouse with a spectacular design. With copper-topped bar and tables, elegantly tiled floor, nautical touches and a piranha wall, every seat in Ironside Fish and Oyster is the best seat. And then there’s the food."

"From its warehouse setting, Ironside Fish & Oyster serves up plenty of fresh seafood fare, as well as unique cocktails. Diners appreciate the chic yet quirky decor, which focuses o..."

"In what is considered the Coronado Ferry Landing area, there are quite a few fabulous restaurants that have views of the bay as well as the downtown San Diego skyline. If coming by car, parking is easy in this area. If you’d prefer to adventure over via the water, take the Coronado Ferry, a foot ferry that transports you from two locations in downtown San Diego (Convention Center and Broadway Pier)."

"In San Diego, you can’t go far without spotting a place specializing in seafood like this spot a walk away from Hotel del Coronado. This waterfront restaurant serves regional seafood delicacies like Maryland-style crab cakes, seafood ceviche, and ahi tuna poke for lunch and dinner. Insider tip: Diners in your group who don’t eat seafood will appreciate their selection of meat and poultry dishes."

"Voted "Best Seafood." Come in and get hooked on the best in fresh, sustainable seafood. Waterfront patio in a historic site, full bar, happy hour, a hyper-local menu and private event rooms. Happy Hour Sunday-Thursday: 3-6pm."

"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. The tacos, which can be upgraded to a burrito for just $1 more, are worth the wait--and there is often a wait."

"Big, bold flavors and within budget, Oscars’ three locations are cranking out the best Mexican food in San Diego. They are well known for their hearty Mexican tacos, heaping with fresh fish or shrimp, cabbage, ruby red tomatoes, and huge slices of avocado. Grab extra napkins because these babies are packed!"

"There are so many fish taco places in SD that you really gotta do something special to stand out. Or you can just be Oscar’s and develop a cult following over many, many years."

"Location: 3999 Mission Blvd, San Diego, CA 92109Phone: (858) 539-8635Website. It just doesn’t get any prettier than this. Located at the Polynesian-themed Catamaran Resort Hotel and Spa in Pacific Beach, this magnificent restaurant overlooking Mission Bay serves up delectable ocean-inspired modern California cuisine."

"Their onsite restaurant, Oceana Coastal Kitchen, features an amazing view and a jellyfish aquarium in the restaurant. Highly recommend this spot for a seafood dinner, or plan to enjoy breakfast with a view."

"With so many Ocean Beach restaurants to choose from, it’s hard to pick a #1 spot, but if you can only make it to one place, head straight to Mike’s Taco Club. It’s appropriately quirky and down-to-earth, super close to the water, and they serve phenomenal tacos. They’re salty (but not too salty), packed with flavor, and so completely satisfying."

"Though small, Mike’s Taco Club is a local favorite among Ocean Beach locals, who crave for it almost every week."

"This stunning venue is located on the 2nd floor offering views of bustling Orange Ave from their patio out front. They are a modern take on the classic steakhouse offering share-friendly plates that include filets, chops, and an expansive selection of shellfish and crudo as well as salads and wood fire-roasted sides. We recommend checking out their happy hour served daily in the bar and patio from 4:00 – 6:30 pm – a sampling of tasty food and drinks at some great prices!"

"For that special occasion or just because dinner, Stake only serves the best of the best when it comes to filets, chops and dry-aged prime steak. There’s an award-winning wine list too along with fresh seafood selections that include east and west coast oysters. Executive chef Andrew Kedziora’s newest dish is a Snake River Farms Wagyu filet mignon with Alaskan king crab, asparagus, and caviar spiked Hollandaise."

"A depth of wine variety that has earned the prestigious Best of Award of Excellence from Wine Spectator. Open for dinnerDress code: Dress JeansPhone: +1 619-237-9700"

"Pacific BeachOne of the few truly nice options in PB, Tower23 Hotel’s on-site restaurant is several steps up from most of the other options in the neighborhood. From the patio, you get the double benefit of top-notch people-watching and an ocean view. The surf and turf menu is suited for a semi-fancy night out, but there’s also some great options at brunch time, including baked bananas Foster-style French toast with candied pecans and whipped mascarpone."

"JRDN Restaurant is the perfect place to enjoy classic and flavorful cuisine and 32 oz cocktails on a modern patio near the oceanfront in Pacific Beach. They even have a romantic three-course meal Valentine’s Day dinner special going on starting February 12th through 15th!"

"Reserve a spot at this Pacific Beach restaurant’s patio for people watching plus views of the beach. The menu focuses on California cuisine but also offers an extensive sushi menu."

"Our famous chain of fish taco restaurants, Rubio’s, has a rather nice dine-in space here with beer and wine options. Ralph Rubio is a La Jollan. Local kids like the kids’ meal with a folded up quesadilla and churro."

"A wide variety of exclusive espresso beverages, delicious pastries, sandwiches, salads, and the ability to customize your own unique coffee creation to create the perfect Starbucks experience. Hours 4:30 am - 8:00 pm. Location Terminal 2 - Gate 37"

"If Rudford's had chrome instead of stucco, it would be a genuine diner, because it has the bay windows and mid-century signage. In any case, it's a landmark (and just down the street from the Chicken Pie Shop). Basic comfort fare here, which gets mixed reviews."

"Equally popular with the early bird special crowd and after-bar party goers; both sets agree that the biscuits and gravy and chicken fried steak at this 24-hour diner are first rate."

"Let your little one splash around this pirate-themed spray park on a hot summer day. The park has a large open space and grass, which is perfect for the crew. Even more, the large playground nearby has tons of swings."

"Hike to the top of Cowles Mountain for prime panoramic views of San Diego County. At 1,593-feet, the summit is the highest peak in all of San Diego, California. The three-mile hike is a rather strenuous switchback-style uphill trek, but the incredible views are worth the effort."
