Really great food and great wine at great prices. They are part wine store so you can go pick out an inexpensive bottle at their store and drink it in house with your dinner. The food is very good! They also have a late night happy hour from 10pm till 1:00am. Best place to get quality dinner after 10pm in San Diego.

Great fish tacos and we think they have the best tortilla soup in San Diego! Great tequila selection.

Great view from their deck and very popular for their fish tacos; many say the best fish tacos in OB (although we prefer the ones at Bravos).

Great bar/restaurant. If you like greyhounds, I highly recommend you try one here. They fresh press the grapefruit juice at the bar. They have a good breakfast menu

the ultimate dive bar. This place has not changed since the 80's. I think that includes the drink prices. Cash only though but they have an ATM inside. If Jack is working behind the bar, you are in for a treat; he plays the best music. Mostly old school punk rock. Super fun bar.
