These are my favorite San Diego restaurants: mexican food- alfonzo's in downtown La Jolla- great carne asada fish- The Fish Market in Del Mar or downtown San Diego- they have fresh fish and a mesquite grill Thai food- Spicies Thai in Del Mar Chinese food- Mandarin House in La Jolla or Pacific Beach Italian food- Jack and Guilio's in Old Town- great scampi and tortellini verde none of these restaurants are terribly expensive and all have great food!

I don't think there is a really good Mexican restaurant in La Jolla. I usually head for Eden Gardens in the Solana Beach area for Mexican. >fish- The Fish Market in Del Mar or downtown San Diego- they have fresh fish >and a mesquite grill The Del Mar location is *much* better than the downtown location. The downtown location sells view, not food. >Thai food- Spicies Thai in Del Mar Never tried it. Thai House on Convoy is pretty good. They'll make it so that it'll singe your tongue if you ask them nicely. >Chinese food- Mandarin House in La Jolla or Pacific Beach Never been there. Our group tends to prefer Peking Palace in the University Towne Center shopping mall or King's Garden out in Solana Beach. Ask them for Kung Pao Death! >Italian food- Jack and Guilio's in Old Town- great scampi and tortellini verde Osteria Panevino, 722 Fifth Ave, downtown is my current favorite. Death by dessert. spl
