Hillcrest bistro:
The new location of Chocolat Bistro Creperie & Cremerie in Hillcrest recently opened its doors and welcomed San Diegans to a wide range of gelatos, paninis, pastas and pizzas! Did I mention that they also have a mozzarella bar? Chocolat is small and intimate and will be an excellent lunch spot for Hillcresters. Make sure to try one of their delicious chocolates on your way out.

Mexican restaurant:
There’s a small restaurant tucked away in a corner of a strip mall in National City that has great food: Casa del Taco. On Friday nights they have All You Can Eat Parillada or grilled buffet. It includes carne asada, longaniza (sausage) and nopales (cactus) with beans, guacamole and one of the best salsas in South County for $9.99 (drink not included).

Bar to take your dog to after Dog Beach:
After a romp at Coronado’s Dog Beach, relax with your pooch on the shady patio at McP’s Irish Pub & Grill. The outdoor patio is dog friendly, and you may even see the owner’s dogs roaming freely. Try the mushroom cheeseburger with your favorite beer on tap.
