"Overlooking a working fishing harbor, Mitch’s Seafood is a friendly, dockside restaurant founded by three families who’ve been fishing for generations. Established in 2008, it serves fresh-caught seafood from the local waters off San Diego and Northern Baja. Lines often spill out the door, and seating is limited around the patio terrace with counter seats looking out on the boats. Try Fisherman’s Stew, fish tacos, beer-battered fish and chips, and craft beer and wine. Be sure to check out the daily specials to see what just came off the boat." - Helen I. Hwang
