Official Patty’s Picks Rating: 8️⃣.7️⃣

Why? Arguably one of the best casual date or good eats spots in San Diego, and definitely the only one you will get away with paying under $100. The food is to die for and hosts some of the most overlooked and underrated drinks in San Diego. There is not one bad item on the menu. (Not kidding) Everything is unique and the best version of it in San Diego. The price point does not do the food justice. Where it lacks occasionally in service temperament, it makes up for with the food, drinks, and vibe. Low key with high key taste. A certified Patty Pick. ✅

The Go To: Burger / Fried Chicken Burger, The Charred Brussell Cesar + Steak Frites. Add on their signature spicy marg and call it a day. Now, they did just add in a whole new list of menu items that I have tried most of and just like everything else on their menu - It hits 100% of the time.

Background: Anderson is a culinary and venue legend. The original GM of Catch LA and now the owner of CommonStock and Books & Records (To be reviewed in an upcoming edition). He keeps the vibe fresh with a modern upscale vibe that you can bring casual fun into. This place is a certified Patty Pick and still one of my favorite spots in the entire city. If you see Anderson out and about running around talking to tables, tell him Patty sent yah! https://www.eatcommonstock.com/
