My husband, baby, and I will be vacationing there soon, and I was wondering if there are any inexpensive places you'd recommend. Some of the places we may be visiting include, Balboa Park, SeaWorld, Coronado, and Old Town. Are there any places that we HAVE to try, regardless of cost, and how much on average is it? We are on a very tight budget.

There are so many places to eat there...but you need to taste the flavor of the area...make sure you go to to one of the small hole-in-the-wall mexican places..(Usually called Juanbertos...Albertos...etc. ) Carne Asada Burrito is a MUST!! They are huge burritos and just a few bucks :o)
In Old town, you have many choices...Zacaros is good...O'Hungrys is good (yard long beers :o)
In Coronado...again...many choices...there are places right up on the water, and the walk along Orange Ave is really pretty... a little more expensive than the other two areas, but really nice. MOST places in SD will run you between 5-18 dollars a meal...really not too bad for SD. It runs (alot) more if you hit places like PF Changs in La Jolla
Have fun! So much to see and do there!

If you're going to be in the north county beach area, head to Pizza Port in Solana Beach. When you first walk in you'll feel disoriented but you'll get use to it. You sit at picnic tables all lined up so you usually end up talking to people next to you that you don't know. Big screen tvs to watch sports but most important, great microbrew beer, many selections besides their own, and the best pizza in town, bar none. If you like pizza and microbrew beer, this is the place. Prices are pretty reasonable...you order food at the counter and pick up when they call your name, bus your own table, so no tip!

i might pass to El Agave Tequileria - voted terrific Mexican nutrition in San Diego, Filipo's in Little Italy for pizza and pasta, Kansas city fish fry (made sought after in precise Gun) have relaxing!

The Broken Yolk in Pacific Beach is a good place to go.

Hit up Phil's BBQ, it's by the Sports Arena and it's super yummy!

I agree with Hopper... you gotta hit up a "Berts" while you're here... You can't get Carne Asada anywhere in the world like SoCal...

if you are going to old town, then Old Town Mexican Cafe is a must. It's good, cheap and really yummy!
