The Best New Restaurants in San Diego, March 2025

"A chef-alum of Mexico City’s Michelin two-starred Pujol has dreamed up his ideal daytime restaurant that features Mexican breakfast classics like chilaquiles, tortas stuffed with cochinita pibil, and brunch-y plates of steak and eggs. Don’t skip dessert, which range from sensational seasonal tarts to homemade Mexican candies that might include pineapple-chile paleta, strawberry-shiso gummy, peanut marzipan flavored with Japanese kinako powder, and a homemade version of Gloria, a milk caramel confection with nuts." - Helen I.
