Does anyone have any restaurant recommendations in San Diego?
DH and I will be in San Diego for about a week. Are there any restaurants (casual and/or nice) in San Diego that you recommend? DH and I like most types of food, but I've had a real aversion to seafood recently. TIA.

DH went to San Diego a couple of years ago and ate dinner one night at this place in Cardiff-By-The-Sea - If I remember it was about a 20-30 minute drive from San Diego, but was soooooo worth it! You are literally right on the beach. The food was fantastic and the atomosphere was as well.

DH and I went to Georges on the Cove in La Jolla for our anniversary and we loved it!
We also love Taco Surf and Lahina for really laid back beach food!

Re: Does anyone have any restaurant recommendations in San Diego?
The Beach House is great - on stormy nights the waves can crash right onto the windows. Also, FYI, the upstairs in a cheaper menu than the downstairs.
If you want a really nice place, you can't beat Betrand's at Mister A's on Banker's Hill. The flightplan of landing planes comes right by - and since it's on the roof and on a hill, you have a great vantage point of the skyline and airport. A dinner with wine will be in the $200 range though.
Other than that - explore the gaslamp district. You can find any cuisine that you might like. My faves in the gaslamp are:
Cafe Sevilla - Spanish
MAX - steak
Dussini - Moroccan/Middle Eastern
Ghiradelli - for ice cream!
If you want take out - Rubios is the best Mexican take out. In & Out is the best hamburger and french fries.
for a TGIF type place - Rock Bottom Brewery has a few locations around the city - great for different beers, etc.
Great breakfast - Harry's in La Jolla - closet to NY diner you will find. Ask for salsa on the side no matter what you get - nothing like you have ever tasted
Sushi on the Rock in La Jolla is one of the best sushi places I have ever eaten!
Donovans (Steak) and Cafe Japengo (asian fusion) are just outside La Jolla in UTC
I'll try to think of more, let me know if you have a specific type in mind.

A lot of those places look really good, especially the Spanish and Asian Fusion restaurants. Sushi is my absolute favorite thing, but sadly I can't eat it for a really long time. Thank you so much for your help.

We went to Il Fornaio in Del Mar a couple of weeks ago and requested a table by the window so we could watch the sunset as we ate.... great restaurant (Italian)
