I made a trip here specifically to go to the Laurel Burch Gallerita -- a small shop (actually part of another shop) that sells all-things-Laurel-Burch. As a fan of her designs, I loved being able to see so many items together in one place. She passed away a few years ago, but the woman working at the shop told stories... More

Well I loved this little place, especially at night with all the lights turned on. We had dinner at Casa de Pico which is very good, long line though but worth the wait. Prices are cheap. Margarita's are huge!! And very tasty.... I like the Guatemalan store they have there. Nice Place to check out if your'e in San Diego. More
