    Next time you're in SD, try Jimmy's on Harbor Dr. Sitting on the boarwalk with Marina just ft away, great for sunsets or any time of day. Gotta try the fried chicken. Some good local drafts on tap.

    Never had a bad meal here. Burgers are a great go to, truly one of the best in San Diego. Pulled pork and fried chicken are also phenomenal. Hard to go wrong with anything though.

    Fantastic food. Blue Burger is one of the best I've had. Apple coleslaw is delicious and refreshing. Don't forget the home made chips. Heather was attentive and friendly.

    If you want a low carb option, try one of their burgers without bun and a side salad!

    Great views. Amazing food. Certainly is my favorite lunch spot. Deviled eggs for an app. And the grilled cheese w/ a side of turkey chili is my lunch usual at Jimmy's.

    Great burgers! Great place to enjoy a waterfront view and have lunch. Little pricey but worth it. The breakfast is not worth it, food is bad for breakfast if you ask me.
