The 24 Best Restaurants In San Diego 2024
"For expertly charred seafood dishes cooked over a Santa Maria-style wood-fired grill, head to Fort Oak. The space used to be a Ford dealership, but they’ve swapped out the F-150s for a horseshoe-shaped bar and chef’s table. It’s great for almost any situation, whether that’s a solo round of cocktails and $1 oysters at Happy Hour, a third date in the indoor-outdoor dining room, or a group dinner fueled by a giant seafood tower of oysters, lobster tiradito, and scallop aguachile. Stay for desserts like the citrus ice cream pie, and consider checking out the cash-only dive and karaoke bar The Lamplighter that’s just a five-minute walk away." - ligaya malones
