Where to Eat in San Diego During a Weekend Away | Eater
"At Shank & Bone, pho takes center stage — more than a dozen varieties are available, including a vegan option. The menu straddles the line between classic and modern Vietnamese cuisine, including traditional favorites like gỏi cuốn (spring rolls filled with shrimp and pork or veggies) phở cuốn rice noodle rolls are plump with grilled ginger beef, fresh basil, mint and bean sprouts, and there is a selection of rice plates, bún bowls, and bánh mì. Don’t sleep on the dinner specialties either — bánh xèo tacos are mini viet savory crepes in taco form, stuffed with sautéed pork, shrimp, bean sprouts, jicama, and fresh mint in a light, airy coconut turmeric shell, while phở fries are loaded with chopped brisket, shank, and flank, sautéed with garlic, then topped with Thai basil, cilantro, onions, bean sprouts, and hoisin sauce. Beverages include sixteen taps of local beer and a short list of craft cocktails, sake, and wine." - Mary Beth Abate
