I have lived in San Diego for about 6 months now. I have had the opportunity to go to quite a few restaurants, but many seem to disappoint. And these were suggested by various websites so I'm beginning to think the dining experience in this gorgeous city isn't very spectacular. Anyhow, let me know what you think. I love trying out new places. Also, some great suggestions on ethnic dining would be awesome too.

Ya gotta go to Hoboken Pizza on Pacific.
When the owner moved to San Diego from the east coast , he said they didn't know what pizza was out there. He started his own ,very popular, shop.
