City Tacos: Amazing fish tacos and carnitas tacos topped with chicharrones.

Quixote: Oaxacan food & mezcal bar in the Lafayette Hotel. Even if you don't eat there, take a look -- it's built from parts of a decommissioned church in Mexico and will be all done up for Dias de las Muertos!

Beginner's Diner: 24-hour diner also in the Lafayette Hotel. The banana bread pudding French toast will change your life, then put you to sleep for a few hours.

Tribute Pizza: No wrong choices.

Bivouac & Happy Medium: Great cocktails with good food across the street from each other.

North Park Creamery: Soft serve!!!

Girl's Deli: In the back of a very nondescript bodega. Get a massive sandwich and go chill in Balboa park or at Ocean Beach.

Pop Pie Co: Let's say Friday night post-welcome drinks you want to chill in your hotel room and watch Food Network and eat in bed. Hypothetically! I've never done this! Order a pot pie and a giant cookie and say hi to Guy Fieri for us.

Thank you so much! We can't wait to celebrate with you.
