Food Scene

There is a great outdoor seating area for people-watching, dog petting, and enjoying the San Diego sun. Their baked goods are fresh and delicious, and their breakfast sandwiches are top notch.

Delicious, authentic Thai food and a really friendly staff. I love the fresh spring rolls, curries, and stir fries. Its just a short walk from the apartment, and you can usually get a table without a reservation.

A great selection of local beer. Their fish and chips or seafood tacos are solid. Fun and lively atmosphere. If you can make it to happy hour, they have great food and drink specials.

A unique menu with an eastern european spin. All the dishes are meticulously planned, with high quality ingredients, and a beautiful presentation. Service sometimes takes a little longer, especially during prime hours, but they have a great beer, wine, and cocktail selection to enjoy the time.

Unique cocktails, beautiful atmosphere, and an amazing location (sandwiched between lots of restaurants, and an easy walk). They don't serve food, but you can order from Soda & Swine next door, and they will bring it over.
