Reliably good. Seating space or carry out. My neighbor had lunch there at a table next to Jerry Seinfeld. Fun, eh? Probably a one-off deal, though.

Farmer's Markets

Wednesday afternoons only. Good to know: Ocean Beach is a funky, hippy scene. Much of it has been gentrified. Its outdoor market is a bit of a trip.

Neighborhoods

Point Loma (name used to refer to a peninsula and neighborhood) is host to a neighborhood called "Sunset Cliffs" and is appropriately named; we find it the most beautiful sunset of San Diego. Ocean Beach is a small neighborhood on the way to Sunset Cliffs and is known for its very hippy vibe. Also on Point Loma, at its southernmost tip, is the Cabrillo National Monument; beautiful views, walking trails, and meaningful history. Be sure to check its seasonal hours, especially for closing times.

La Jolla: home to among the wealthiest in the world AND University of California at San Diego (some freshmen dorms offer full ocean views). La Jolla Shores: popular with families for its flat beach, shallow-entry into the ocean, grassy area and playground. Completely harmless sharks come close to the shore in the hot months and it is popular to go swimming with them. La Jolla Coves: popular for snorkeling, scuba diving, and its beautiful oceanside walk. Home to a lot of very cute seals. La Jolla Windansea: popular for experienced surfers. Small beach area and very beautiful.

Coronado is a nearly picture-perfect, wealthy community and home to: the famous Hotel Del Coronado and a wide, white, sandy beach. The main thoroughfare is Orange Avenue where there are cafes and shops. Warning: if you go to Coronado Beach, stay on the "Hotel Del" end of the beach as navy military airplanes land on the northern end and can blow your stuff quite far....we learned by experience!
