Dining Suggestions:
  • Great Thai Food Restaurant: Royal Thai , one in La Jolla and another one in the Gaslamp Quarter. This is a great place for a girls night out to eat and chat. If you go to the one downtown, sit outside and enjoy watching the city come to life in the evening.

  • For Japanese cuisine try Ichiban in Pacific Beach is a good place to get together for lunch or dinner and enjoy Japanese fast food, plentiful and cheap.

    For a more authentic experience, we suggest Ichiro on Convoy street. At Ichiro you can really indulge yourself in some unusual taste experiences.

  • For a family with varied tastes try Islands Restaurant (the one we usually go to is in La Jolla) where everone will find something he/she likes. I love their soft tacos ans curly fries.

Special Date Suggestions:
  • Coffee House/Movie Theater - There is a coffee house in Mission Hills that also shows classic movies. A very different date on a warm summer evening.
