    I too have visited San Diego in the past; and you did an excellent job in putting this video together! However, with all due respect, you missed pronounced a couple of establishments names. "Isola" is not pronounced Eye soh lah, but rather it's pronounced: Eee soh lah with translates to Island in Italian. As far as "Filippi's" Restaurant, the oldest, and busiest Italian Restaurant down there you almost got it right @ 4:04 but nailed it when you actually approached the Restaurant. As far as "Civico 1845", it's not pronounced Seh veee coh, but rather it's pronounced: "Cheee veh coh" 1845. As far as "Bencotto" it's not pronounced: Ben coh toh, but rather, it's pronounced: Ben cohth tho. With translates to well cooked. I'm not trying to put you down; before I did the same exact thing years ago until I was corrected by the locals. And like I said, you did an excellent job! 👍👍

    Top thing to learn about San Diego is that the parking stinks. The city caters to a minority of bike riders and then insists that people are much better off taking the very inconvenient public transportation systems.
    Special note: It wasn't that long ago that those sidewalks and streets where they want you to dine were part of a massive hepatitis outbreak caused by the homeless population, but don't worry, sit outside in the street and eat your meal in the famous southern Ca. poop corridor.

    Whatever you do don’t eat at Sorrento! Not even run by Italians and they only serve cold Tap water and alcohol. What kind of Italian place don’t serve soda and coffee for after dinner. Service sucks ass. Food is salty. So disappointed with that restaurant in lil Italy.
