While the Indio debate is still being waged - don't forget about Ponce's in Kensington. It's on the third generation of family ownership now and the original cook Tio is still back there making the goods. It got a revamp a couple of years ago so its not as vintage as it could be but the original sign still lights up Mon. through Sat. Good stuff!

Also, those of you staying on Shelter Island and looking for one of the diviest bars in the city, check out the Club Marina on Scott street. The place was formerly a strip bar in the seventies and had to switch to just booze as the Navy moved out and Point Loma classed itself up. Retains a link from it's past with a "Semi-Live Entertainment" sign which, to the best of my understanding, means the surly drunks that grumpily hold the barstools from about 1-10PM. After 10PM you own the place. Barbara serves up a mean drink dirt, cheap and there's free pool where the stage used to be!
