Here's the secret. Don't wait in the 45 minute line that wraps around the building. Either go to the bar are if there are seats and order from the bartender, or just get take out and eat it at the apartment. Go right up to the door for take out, don't wait in the long line. You can call in from the parking lot and they put it on the grill when you pay. The beef ribs are delicious.

This Burger spot has a line most days. It's good, but most locals don't think it's the best. It's more of a destination since it's been around and is iconic. There are many other great burger spots in SD.

Drinks & Nightlife

Wonderland is a modern ode to a time past. OB used to be home to "Wonderland" an amusement park and casino. Now, it's a newish bar that has ocean views and great food. It's also so close by I can see it out of my kitchen window.

San Diego's crown jewel. Balboa Park is hard to describe, just go there. Take an Uber to the Museum of Man, it'll cost $10 and just wander around.

Parks & Nature

It's a moderately challenging hike. My 4 year old niece quit about a 1/4 mile to the top. Her 6 year old sister said "We can't climb to the top of the mountain, it's pointy." She'd never seen a mountain before :) It's about a 45min-1hour hike and the top of the mountain has a 360 degree view of everything San Diego. Go early if it's going to be a hot day, bring a bottle of water.
