Restaurants for teenagers...

I posted a while ago on here for hotel suggestions. Now I was hoping someone could point me to the direction of some good, relatively inexpensive restaurants that my two teenage daughters might enjoy. They are not into seafood so that is out. They do like Mexican. We will be staying at The Old Town Inn. Addresses of the restaurants would be great also because I plan on doing a Mapquest search before we arrive. We will have a car. Any recommendations are appreciated.

Well, if your girls like Mexican, you%26#39;re in luck. Because their are tons of choices just a hop, skip and a jump away. Old Town Mexican Cafe is a lively place, which gets very busy, and has a festive, family atmosphere. The food is pretty good too.

I also really like Casa Guadalajara, which is just on the outskirts of old town, but maybe the best mexican food place in the area:

4105 Taylor St., San Diego, CA 92110



(619) 295-5111





If this isn%26#39;t enough, there is a place called Rockin Baja Lobster which your girls may enjoy. It%26#39;s a fun place, and the food is pretty good.

Finally, kids seem to LOVE the Corvette Diner. It%26#39;s a 50%26#39;s themed diner. The food is hot, the portions are hearty and the waitresses in poodle skirts and bouffant hairdos have lots of sass.

Many people seem to like the Cheesecake Factory at7067 Friars rd. Also the Corvette Diner is a 50s style fun place hamburgers milk shakes juke boxes etc.at3946 Fifth Ave. I think if you drive into our Old Town area(your motel is outside this area despite its name) and walk around you will have fun watching people make tortillas and reading menus_Old Town Ave. There is another fun place if they like arcade/video games. It%26#39;s called Dave%26amp; Busters. The food is varied American standards-sandwiches, salads etc. but they also have a whole separate area for lots of games including virtual driving , etc. Even my adult friends have fun there.-2931 Camino Del Rio North.




In terms of mexican food your in luck. If you are interested in decent food with great atmosphere than I would say go to Old Town Mexican cafe. Very loud and extremely crowded but a ton of fun. If you are looking for the best mexican food then I would go down a few blocks to Casa de Guadalajara. Better food and much more quiet. Finaly, your daughters would love the boardwalk at Mission Beach. It is about 5 miles from where you are staying and something that should definitely be appreciated. Also, if you are hungry their is a very affordable beachfront restaurant called World Famous that is a very popular among locals and tourists. Enjoy!




Thanks for all the great tips. I know we are going to have a wonderful time visiting San Diego for our spring break.:)
