Sushi On Fire
Read Reviews301 Main St Ste 103, Huntington Beach, CA 92648 (map)

Chronic Tacos
Read Reviews4533 W Coast Hwy, Newport Beach, CA 92663 (map)
"This is a place that I go to at least once a day when I am home in the LBC. In fact, I just got back from there before writing this, and I have some leftovers in the fridge if you want to come by and give it a try."

Mr Chow Restaurant
Read Reviews344 N Camden Dr, Beverly Hills, CA 90210 (map)
"Their duck tacos are to die for! It's nice to go to a place that brings out random dishes one at a time and you can eat as much or as little of each dish for all the same cost."

Slice Of New York Pizza
Write a review142 Main St Ste B, Seal Beach, CA 90740 (map)
"This pizza place is the closest you're going to get to eating some real New York pizza without going all the way to New York. It's a nice thin crust pizza that isn't all greasy and soggy. This pizza is full of flavor and has nice crisp to the crust."

Pancho Frijoles
Read Reviews16635 Pacific Ave, Sunset Beach, CA 90742 (map)
"Pancho's is the place to be after working up an appetite on a good day of surfing. This Mexican restaurant also has some of the best shrimp tacos I've ever had. I don't know what they put in the beans, but this is the place where people that hate beans will most likely love them."

Pat's King of Steaks
Read Reviews1237 E Passyunk Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19147 (map)
"Pat's is the bomb. This spot has been around since the first cheesesteak, and it's open 24 hours a day. So when you are looking for a good late night snack, and you're in Philly, this is your spot. Make sure you get the squeezy cheese. It's so good on your sandwich when packing a nice buzz."
