Food Scene
Cute place with great food, must try the Brussel Sprouts. Don't accept reservation so go early or before you leave the house call and ask for your name to be on the waiting list. Parking can be a pain, best to park at the park right behind the restaurant. Have an early diner then go to Sunset Cliffs to se the...sunset :-)

Oscar's is a little hole in the wall taco stand. Their specialty is fish tacos, shrimp tacos, and ceviche. There is often a line out the door to order and a bit of a wait for your food to be ready, with just a few outdoor tables to sit at. So maybe carry the foot as takeout and take it with you to eat at the beach!

Wonderful Italian restaurant serving pizza from a traditional wood fired oven. Great outdoor patio. Gets busy, may have to wait, but worth it. Walk around the quaint charming 'hood while waiting. Rated the best Italian restaurant in San Diego... make reservations in advance (days if possible) and enjoy the pizzas, etc... they use truffle oil on the pizzas.

JRDN Dining has the most memorable meals prepared by Chef DJ Tangalin who is dedicated to his craft of quality & passion for providing nature as the star of his dishes. JRDN is fresh, cool, clean & upbeat West Coast Hip with a dramatic setting sun in the Pacific Ocean as it's back drop. You will view the ocean while indoor/ outdoor venue and enjoy breakfast/brunch/dinner or view of the ocean while sipping hand crafted cocktails. My all time favorite is Wednesday Night's Sip into Summer Beverage Series at 6 PM on the Tower Deck and catch the Sunset for $25.00 per ticket for the Beverage Series. In addition pairing this with the Seafood Platter 3 Oysters, 3 Shrimp & 1/4 lb of King Crab. (This is an extra cost, and worth it!) It is all about the magnetic ambiance.

Its iconic and a must do for the nightlife enthusiast. For those looking for a more upscale high end good time try Fluxx Nightclub or the new Parq or classic Sky Lounge for dancing.
