Best Restaurants and Bars to Try on Convoy Street in Kearny Mesa | Eater San Diego

"Longstanding family-owned Japanese restaurant Wa Dining Okan is a jewel box-sized space, with a cozy and traditional vibe. With indoor and outdoor tables, as well as a rectangular communal counter perfect for solo dining, this casual spot is a hidden gem in the Sunrise Towne Centre strip mall. Menu highlights include bento boxes with a wide range of options, such as grilled mackerel, Japanese-style hamburger patty steak, and katsu curry. Add chicken thigh skewers, octopus takoyaki, or kama kakuni (seasoned rice with pork belly and poached egg) to dig into more dishes. For a good-value option, head there for lunchtime specials, but this wallet-friendly restaurant is splendid anytime." - Helen I. Hwang
