For the true taste of San Diego, you absolutely must try a Baja fish taco. Credit for bringing the original fish taco to San Diego is given to Ralph Rubio who vacationed in Baja Mexico and fell in love with the cheap fish tacos he found there. He opened his first fish taco stand in San Diego in 1983 with his father where it remains today. The original fish taco is a beer-battered pollock, but Rubio's offers other great choices like mahi mahi, chicken and mesquite grilled shrimp tacos and burritos. They top them off with their own fresh sauces and crema blanca. A self-serve salsa bar is always stocked with fresh favourites. It's fast, cheap and delicious and you can find one in every neighbourhood (check their website for details of other locations). Average mains: $6.
