"A post shared by 𝑰𝑹𝑶𝑵𝑺𝑰𝑫𝑬 𝑭𝑰𝑺𝑯 𝑨𝑵𝑫 𝑶𝒀𝑺𝑻𝑬𝑹 (@ironsideoyster). The Michelin-Star Ironside Fish & Oyster restaurant features some of the best seafood in San Diego. The restaurant opens its doors to spacious, nautical-themed indoor and outdoor seating in the Little Italy district of Southern California."

"Like a nautical version of the yellow brick road, illuminated anchors embedded in the floors of Ironside Fish & Oyster lead you to the Emerald City of raw bars, where the bounteous platters come in Big, Bigger, Biggest, and Holy Sh*t."

"Cosmopolitan Restaurant claims a remarkable heritage, occupying an adobe home built in 1927, now inside Old Town San Diego State Historic Park. The building served as a restaurant ..."

"This local go-to has had its on-the-water Glorietta Bay location across from the Hotel del Coronado for more than 120 years. It serves wonderful surf and turf menu selections in its charming and historic building with some of the best views on the island!. And if you just want a great bar for cocktails, the mahogany bar upstairs is a delight!"

"Historic building built in 1887 right across from the Hotel Del Coronado. Well behaved dogs are welcome on the patio with a great view of Coronado Yacht Club."

Popular with tourists and locals alike, this eatery now has a total of three locations in which diners can savour tacos, ceviche and fish stew."

"Located at the Catamaran Resort Hotel and Spa in Mission Beach, this restaurant has a lot going for it: views of Mission Bay, on-point service and seafood for days. Best to kick things off with some sushi and—better yet—to go with the togarashi-seared tuna roll, with crunchy tempura shrimp, crab and spicy garlic ponzu; and the diver scallop roll, with crab, zippy green Sriracha and cucumber.

"Pacific BeachMultiple millions were spent outfitting this bayfront restaurant in the Catamaran Resort Hotel and Spa that houses a 25ftcold bar, an 800-gallon aquarium where fluorescent jellyfish float, and an airy patio overlooking Mission Bay. If you’re visiting for lunch, try the Drugstore Burger, a near carbon copy of the famous burger served at The Lodge at Torrey Pines (another luxury hotel property under the same brand as the Catamaran)."

"7091 El Cajon Blvd, San Diego, CA 92115Make Your Reservation Now$$ | Farm-To-Table. This is one of my favorite types of restaurants. Their focus is to not only provide delicious food but for that food to be fresh, sustainable, and locally sourced."

"Terra American Bistro is offering bottles of wine, beer, and pints of cocktails like their Habanero Hibiscus Margarita and house infused liquors. Available for curb-side pick-up Tuesday-Sunday 4:30pm-8:30pm."

"I do have to say that my sister has been here several times and has enjoyed it every time. We did hit on an off day – they were understaffed and had one waitress for our whole group (which was over 30 of us) so that was a little rough. But the food is good – I had some Carne Asada Fries that were really good."

"Trendsetters and tastemakers have flocked to Miso Harney Sushi since the day it opened without slowing down. The ultra-cool vibe inside is set off by the rich red walls and marble counter tops.[Learn more]"

"Harney Sushi’s funky, experimental vibe puts it at the top of any list of best sushi in San Deigo. The creative, exciting menu features some riffs on classic favorites and new takes on what sushi can be."

"Even if you’re broke, the Timken Museum of Art is always free, and if you have a Bank of America card, the San Diego Museum of Art and the Museum of Photogenic Arts are free on certain days. If you love art, check out the Spanish village. These are historic buildings turned art galleries and stores which have a lot of their work for sale. Even just walking through this area is a fun experience."

"The Museum of Photographic Arts is a museum and visual learning center, situated in Balboa Park, San Diego, California. It is an independent institution that collects, protects, and presents photography, films, and video graphics art. MOPA presents a broad range of rotating exhibitions from the solo photographer as well as group shows around the globe, across the year."

"This world-class museum features extensive collections of still photographs, videos and films. The history of the medium is illustrated, from the earliest Daguerreotypes and albumen prints to modern laser holograms. A variety of artists are represented, including Alfred Stieglitz, Ben Shahn, Alberto Korda, Ansel Adams and Margaret Bourke-White."

"San Diego Museum of Art is known for its collection of renowned Spanish and Italian masters, collections of Indian paintings, 19th- and 20th-century American sculptures and paintings, and new and changing exhibits from across the globe. Famous names include El Greco, Diego Velázquez, and Francisco Goya. The museum restaurant, Panama 66, is one of our favorite places to eat in Balboa Park."

"Located in Balboa Park, the San Diego Museum of Art is a must-see attraction when visiting the city. The exterior itself is a masterpiece, with an ornamented doorway consisting of life-sized sculptures of Spanish painters and heraldry. Inside you’ll find Spanish and Italian old masters, Asian paintings and sculptures, and a range of touring exhibits."

"Its front doors are located in a gigantic, cathedral-style facade that took a full two years to build, and they can be seen from every direction if you’re in the neighborhood."

"Location: Harbor Island (across the Street from the San Diego Airport)Water slide: NoAdults only pool: No. This pool is on the list for people who need a San Diego airport hotel but would like a pool, too. Guests may watch yachts meander through the harbor and enjoy water views from the pool at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel and Marina."

"Sushi might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of a family restaurant. However, if you were to ask my daughter and her friends what their favorite spot is right now they would say Kura. It’s a gamified revolving sushi restaurant where the more plates you empty, the happier the “ninja” is."

"What to know: Prior to the pandemic, wait times were very long for Kura. Now, lines are very short if any as they have a large outdoor dining area!. Also, spaces between tables actually allow for a 6 foot distance between parties."
