San Diego’s Best Eateries

(in my opinion)

San Diego is a hub for surfers, explorers, and food enthusiasts. After a long day of hitting the waves, soaking in the Cali sun, or just roaming around the city, a satisfying and delicious meal is the perfect way to get a whole SD experience.

Here are some of my favorite places to eat:

1. Pizza Rev

Pizza Rev is a fantastic pizza place where you customize your pizza in an endless number of ways. I love this place because they have unlimited toppings and sauces that you will not find at your local pizza places, such as pesto, arugula, Beyond Meat Italian sausage, and more.

2. Noodles & Company

This noodle shop offers a plethora of international dishes, ranging from Japanese Udon (pictured above) to Shrimp Scampi to Spicy Korean Beef Noodles. You can pair noodle dishes with sides such as soup and salads, making a hearty and filling meal.

3. Urban Plates

Urban Plates is where I come when I am ravenous for a full-fledged meal. Here, I can order anything from sandwiches to bowls to plates. I highly recommend the 4-Up dish, which combines any four sides of choice. These sides are seasonal and unique, lovely because I enjoy changing them up!

4. Tasty Pot

Tasty Pot is a hot pot place that offers a massive range of options. I love this place, especially on a cold winter night, because it is comforting and colorful. You can easily customize any dish to meet one’s dietary needs, which I love most. I am a huge fan of vegetables, so I love getting the veggie hot pot which some extra toppings. Along with a hot pot, you can order delicious drinks and sides.

5. Happy Lemon

My perfect way to end a night is a sweet drink at Happy Lemon, where you can create your drink or choose one from their flavorful menu. From fruit teas to milk teas to smoothies, you can choose any drink you want. My favorite part is the toppings you can add. Some of my all-time favorites are lychee jelly, coffee jelly, and boba. I used not to be the biggest fan of these drinks; however, shops like Happy Lemon have made me hooked!
