I really miss the old one in Hillcrest. When I was spending all my money on records and beer it was the place for a cheap, very filling meal. I would go into food coma after eating there!

The one near Rudford's isn't quite the same, and I don't really like the fake 50s diner look of the one in the north county. Rudford's is the real deal though. We used to go there after punk shows late at night (remember, shipwreckjoey?). The food was cheap and hearty. A bit of trivia: the cops found the Versace killer there.

Thanks for putting this list together Freddie!

Roll tacos, aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh. Maybe we should compile a list of the best taco stands in San Diego next! My faves are Los Panchos and La Posta in Hillcrest, but any of the Roberto's, Alberto's, Hilberto's, Adalberto's, etc. are better then the taquerias here in the Bay Area.

When I was in SD recently I noticed the classic Chinese restaurant in Hillcrest Jimmy Wong's Golden Dragon was closed but they are keeping the great neon sign and will reopen (hopefully with better food).
