The 38 Best Restaurants in San Diego | Eater San Diego

"This outdoor brunch place along Pacific Coast Highway started as a stopgap for chef Andrew Bachelier (previously of Jeune et Jolie and Cucina Enoteca) as he worked toward launching his larger restaurant partnership with pro skater Tony Hawk. It’s safe to say that this North County daytime cafe, Eater’s 2023 winner for Neighborhood Restaurant of the Year, has already become a beloved fixture in Leucadia. Diners have fully embraced Manna’s feel-good menu, which includes comforting savory pork belly congee, seasonal salads, and Turkish eggs with chili garlic butter. In the next couple of months, look for chef Andrew’s opening of Chick N Hawk with the Birdman up the street in Encinitas. Must-try dishes: Locals come for the unparalleled Turkish eggs and Manna bowl. Don’t skip on a vitality tonic, including ones made with Steady State coffee." - Candice Woo
