Hot San Diego Restaurant Openings You May Have Missed, August 2025 | Eater San Diego

"Opened July 4 in Clairemont, this first West Coast location of Na Tart—joining two existing branches in Flushing and Chinatown in New York City—offers more than a dozen versions of the Portuguese egg tart next to owner YiBo Wang’s existing restaurant, Pho Hut and Grill. Using premium imported French butter and pastry dough made from scratch each morning, the team churns out 1,300 to 1,400 egg tarts daily, often selling out by the afternoon. Popular flavors include the original Portuguese egg tart, ube cheese, and the sunflower egg tart, which is less custard-y and cupped in scalloped layers of thin, crispy dough, while a standout savory option is the Salty Boy Tart topped with thin, dried chicken floss, barbecue seaweed flakes, and house-made milky mochi. Wang tells Eater they’re already looking at opening a second location in Mira Mesa, National City, or Del Mar." - Helen I. Hwang
