Let me just say WOW!! The OG Fish Taco was amazing! They even just gave us free soup while we waited. I'm not sure what the soup was but it was sooo yummy and heartwarming. Such great customer service. We also ordered the mixed ceviche which was delicious. I ordered the garlic shrimp taco and while it was good, I preferred the fish taco. I'll definitely be coming back!

Walk along the Embarcadero & get a freeze on a hot day, stop by Chilanga's (the best booth there) & get my huitlacoche on. Live music, shade, delicious vendors, right across from the water. I did have a little detour from Chilanga's - while I was waiting for my spouse to park, I sat at a shady table with a woman who was telling me about the poke truck (Island Mike's) & explaining that her coworker ran it as a side hustle, and that the poke was delicious because he had lived in Hawaii. I agonized a bit - get my Chilanga's huitlacoche huarache - or try the poke? I eventually decided: it's Mother's Day, you can have ALL the things, just like at a buffet! So I went to Island Mike's first. They advertised Broke Da Mouth poke - and I was a little suspicious at first - cuz Island Mike's didn't look like a Hawaii native but a mainlander who spent some time there. BUT... I got my poke "island style" (furikake, sushi rice, and the poke - not lots of distractions like seaweed salad or ginger like in the "mainland style") - and it really was off the hook. Really fresh & delicious and perfectly made. YUM & YUM. $12 for one scoop (the smaller size) & very worth it. Of course I still needed my Chilanga's so then I got the huitlacoche huarache (a vegetarian taste of heaven - shredded lettuce, huitlacoche, Mexican cheese on a huarache (masa dough) & tried the mango passion fruit agua fresca. The huarache is huge and I'd already had the little poke, so I took most of it home to eat later. But it was just as yummy as I remembered. And the agua fresca is amazing. I'll still crave Chilanga's but now I'll crave Island Mike's too. I need to get down here more often because it is a super fun outing that is too good to waste on tourists!

This was walking distance from Hotel Republic just past the Santa Fe Depot so before we started our…read moretrek back to OC 2 weekends ago, we decided to check out some of the vendors at Lane Field Park Market. There was live music and aa few food stalls. Good Eatz (filipino/hawaiian fusion) caught my eye mainly because they have a few Ube pastries (mochi, ube bar, etc). I first ordered the ube bar which passed the test so I went back to order the mochi. They also offer lumpia, spam musubi and chicken wing combo plates and pork dumplings.

If you're familiar with the area, this small eatery is nestled in the row of businesses on the east side of Broadway in Lemon Grove, just down the way from the post office. I've visited twice, once for lunch and once for breakfast. The Sunroad Club was good, but the Da Bomb croissant sandwich was by far my favorite. The thick-cut bacon, cheese, egg, and crispy hash brown are a great combination, and the roasted tomatoes and pickled onions are the finishing touch that really make it stand out. There was only one server working each time I went, but they stayed on top of everything and, for the size of the place, it seemed like enough. It was pretty warm inside during our summer visits so I suggest sitting in the patio out front if you're trying to catch a little breeze. With yummy food and the relaxed neighborhood feel, it's a good spot to keep in the rotation.

By far my favorite taco shop in San Diego. You really can't go wrong with Ortiz's. I used to live…read morenearby, and you'd catch me happily walking home with my go‑to order: carne asada fries. Now, anytime I'm in the OB/Point Loma area, stopping here is an absolute must. My favorite item will always be the carne asada fries (obviously), but hear me out -- their veggie burrito is so good. I usually find a plain bean burrito too simple, but add rice, lettuce, guac, and all the extras, and suddenly it becomes this amazing, crave‑worthy burrito I sometimes want even more than carne asada. The salsas are great, the service is excellent, and the quality is consistently amazing. They never skimp on toppings, portions are generous, and everything tastes fresh.

There is a lot of hype surrounding this location on social media, which is exactly why I wanted to…read morecheck it out in the first place. To start, I'd like to acknowledge that I know everyone has their good and bad days. That's why, after my first visit, I gave the girl working there the benefit of the doubt and really wanted to give the place a second chance. Unfortunately, for the second time now, I've experienced some of the worst customer service here, both times being with the same person. Her attitude is consistently terrible from her dismissive demeanor and rude tone to her overall approach when taking an order. It's as if I was a nuisance to her. On top of that, the food is subpar and nothing special. With the sheer amount of incredible taco shops in San Diego, there is absolutely no reason to tolerate bad service for mediocre food. You're much better off going literally anywhere else for better quality and a warmer welcome. Don't believe the hype!

We were initially aiming for the crispy shawarma however only Mira Mesa and La Mesa does it. So I guess that's next on our list! The wraps were unexpectedly big! This is probably the biggest wrap I ever had! Generous with meat and veggies. Their wagyu egg rolls are definitely must have! Falafel fries is really good too! All of these perfectly paired with their garlic sauces. My favorite is spicy lemon garlic! The staff are very knowledgeable about their menu. It's a food truck set up and there's mini standing tables for alfresco dining. SG was definitely lived up to the title #1 restaurant in the country on Yelp!

This turned out to be a surprisingly mediocre experience…read more My husband and I split the Wagyu Shawarma bowl. The beef was dry. The hummus turned out to be the highlight of the dish.

I love empanadas and have had these empanadas before when at Pacific Beach open market…read more I kind of stumbled on this place and immediately I knew I wanted some empanadas! Empanadas are stuffed turnovers, originally from Spain and Portugal, and eaten widely across South America, including Argentina, Paraguay and also eaten in Mexico, Puerto Rico and the Phillipines too. They are a delight and delicious! This spot is an Argentinian place and I got 3 empanadas. They have many different stuffed options and I chose a beef, mushroom and spinach as my three. I asked how spicy the spicy beef one is and the very nice lady working said it was about 5/10, so I passed. She said it wad spicy, unfortunately, I cannot handle too spicy. So far, I have eaten the beef and spinach one and like them both. I was given chimichurri sauce, but I dont think I like this version, its a little too lemony for me. I like a more parsley forward chimichurri and this one too sour for me. For 3 empanadas, it was about $11, which isnt too bad! The empanadas are delicious and I will def be back again and again!!

I prefer the spinach, mushroom and beef empanadas. I tried the Malbec beef but it was too mushy and sweet for me. I'll stick with the traditional one, with olives. I lived in S. FL and baked empanadas are everywhere and usually were $1.50 each (now maybe $2.00-$2.50) so it does bug me to pay $4.00 for an empanada. On the other hand, they make a great snack or meal, depending on how many you get. And they are not as easy to find here, especially baked, so I'll keep coming to Parana.

Everyone was so friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. You can really tell they take pride in what they do.
