Food Scene

The service, atmosphere and food are spectacular if you love Vietnamese food (and it has very reasonable pricing). This restaurant is also open for late night dining (until 3:00 a.m.). Zagat guide rated just shy of 5 stars. I have come here often over the years and am never disappointed: https://www.zagat.com/r/saigon-on-fifth-san-diego

Sightseeing

This is an iconic hotel with lots of history. Take a cab to the harbor and grab a ferry over to Coronado. You can rent bikes on the other side and explore the island for the day...Lots of restaurants and the Hotel del Coronado is a beautiful Victorian worth seeing.
