I left for college a little over a week ago and as excited as I am for the next chapter, there are definitely things I’ll miss. Here are 5 restaurants that if you’re ever in San Diego you must try:
Wow Wow Waffle
I just tried this restaurant for the first time this past summer after a few friends suggested it and it was by far the BEST waffle I’ve ever had. I had the Fresh N Light waffle but my friend had The Jam and loved it. If you’re a waffle fan, check this place out.
Sushiya
Cheap, great sushi. It's always filled with high school and college students. My roll preference is the Chuck roll but honestly, they’re all good.
Point Loma Seafoods
A seafood market and one of locals favorite restaurants. A bit expensive, but if you want fresh seafood it’s the way to go. My go to is the crab sandwich.
Carnitas Snack Shack
San Diego is known for Mexican food and this place is a must try.
Sushi Ota
If my parents ever let me choose somewhere for a “special occasion,” this is my choice. It’s the best sushi you’ll have, but it is expensive.
Saffron
The best Thai food. Hands down. My favorite is the Pad See Ew, but you can’t really go wrong here.
Yoshino
One of my favorite Japanese restaurants. There’s better sushi, but the sesame chicken is a personal favorite. My mom’s favorite is the salmon teriyaki so if you don’t like fish, the chicken is definitely the way to go.
Burger Lounge
If you don’t want a “fast food” burger, Burger Lounge is awesome. Also, it’s a bit healthier because it’s grass fed! Score!
OB Noodle House
OB Noodle House is definitely one of my favorite restaurants. The chicken wings are the best you’ve ever had and once you’ve had them, no other comes close.
Venetian
Outside of Little Italy, Venetian has the best pizza in San Diego. It’s a local favorite. If you don’t like pizza, the chicken cacciatore is awesome.
