 Best Breakfast award winner |
1201 Hotel Circle South San Diego, CA 92108 United States +1 619 291 1103 |
Winner of the San Diego Magazine Best Breakfast Award, this spot is always crowded by locals and businesspeople. If it is breakfast food, it is offered here! But do not expect lunch, because you will not find it. Obviously, as the restaurant name implies, the house specialty is Steak and Eggs. Other highlights include Carne Asada and Eggs, Corn Fritters and Huevos Rancheros. The restaurant also offers breakfast classics such as waffles, pancakes and french toast. It is simple, traditional delicious down-home cooking. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Far south of the border |
3928 Twiggs San Diego, CA 92110-2843 United States +1 619 295 2343 |
This charming, intimate restaurant is often overlooked by the tourist hordes, but locals know to look for the candlelit porch with a half-dozen intimate tables. The interior is small and simple, decorated lightly in colonial Spanish style, with tiny tables. Yet, most guests prefer to eat outside for the most romantic experience. The menu offers South American cuisine. Enjoy thin-sliced Argentinean style beef or spicy, flavorful meat stews. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Wily Coyotes dine here |
2461 San Diego Avenue San Diego, CA 92110 United States +1 619 291 4695 http://www.cafecoyoteoldtown.com/ |
A sturdy, spicy meal offered here is the Chimichange de Pollo, a deep-fried flour tortilla wrapped around chicken and topped with melted cheese, chile sauce and tomatillo-jalapeno salsa. Not sure about spicy Mexican food? A good compromise is the Carne Asada Plate, flavorful sirloin steak quick-seared and served with refried beans, Mexican rice and guacamole. Ten different beers on draft, a full bar and appetizers are available in the Coyote Cantina or served to your table. Patio dining puts you in the middle of Old Town shoppers and gawkers.

Seafood with a contemporary flair |
2414 San Diego Avenue San Diego, CA 92110-2836 United States +1 619 291 6666 http://www.cafepacifica.com/ |
With an elegant atmosphere and carefully prepared seafood entrees, this place is a top choice for elite dining. Light colors are emphasized by white linen tablecloths and white shutters. Some walls feature mirrors, while others host wine cases. For an appetizer, try the Grilled Shrimp Cake in port wine sauce along with the Griddled Salmon Cake, served with mango sauce. For entrees, fish tops the menu. Broiled Salmon is offered with sweet peppers and Mediterranean grains, while Herb-Crusted Halibut is served with tomatoes, garlic and basil. Cafe Pacifica has also been selected by San Diego Magazine as the city's 'Best Seafood Restaurant'. Review © 2007, Wcities |

 Hong Kong influence |
2543 Congress Street San Diego, CA 92110 United States +1 619 291 9478 |
Predictably surrounded by Mexican restaurants in San Diego's Old Town, this fastidious restaurant thrives because of its attentive staff and attention to detail. Gourmet meals prepared by its Hong Kong trained chef range from the traditional choices of Chop Suey and Chow Mein to the exceptional Szechuan Curried Chicken or Shrimp and Scallops. The restaurant is highly touted by local food critics. Full service bar; free delivery with a $15 minimum order. Review © 2007, Wcities |
