Quarter Kitchen ... meh

Honestly, there's not much in the way of great food here in San Diego. Downtown is a mix of either steaks, Italian or seafood. There's the usual stand-by of steakhouses (Ruth's Chris, Donovans, Flemings, Morton's), but a new one that recently opened is Cowboy Star in East Village downtown, which I like because it's a little different. None of the Italian food is any good. Best seafood is probably Oceannaire.

Non-downtown food is a little better. Hotel del Coronado (on Coronado, duh) has a really good (but really pricey) Sunday brunch. Grand Del Mar has the best restaurant in all of SD (Addison's) ... but it's pricey.

Best bet is to just Yelp your food.

*Edit: My usual suggestion to out-of-towners is to try the many Mexican or Mexican-inspired restaurants in SD, only because it's usually different than the cuisine you might find wherever you live.
