Hi guys,

I need some help here... I'm in Chula Vista for business and looking for decent restaurants around here. I think this place is pretty much residential neighborhood under major development... Many I see are fast food chains (McDonnalds, subways, etc). The Quizno's not even open yet. Where are the good restaurants at? What's good to eat around here? Any good Japanese/ Chinese/ Italian restaurants??? BTW, I'm close to the Islands on Otay Lakes Road.

BTW, I saw a couple of Z's here. Anyone from this board?
DB with black track wheels. I also saw CS and LS as well.

 

head west on the 8 freeway until you start seeing the hotel circle area, nicer restaurants there...Benihanas, couple italian and chinese places, or you can head over to my workplace The Cheesecake Factory

 

Thanks for your reply!
I think I went there before for dinner.... I went to Bully's something steak house off of HWY 8 a bit west of 805. Their prime rib was great! But that's a bit too far to drive for lunch... maybe dinner tho. Thanks!

 

I live a couple of miles down from that shopping complex. There are some good places on Bonita Rd which isnt to far from there. Sushiyama on Bonita Rd. is decent for Japanese food. There is a place called Yokozunas on Otay Lakes Rd(across from the college) which has pacific islander/japanese style food, not too bad. Buon Giorno on Bontia Rd. has really good italian food. As for chinese food there are a couple of places on Bontia Rd. also. The only one I've eaten at is House of Nine Dragons. It's decent. Next door to 9 dragons is a little cafe called Ono's that has the best deserts. Their desert chef is competing in the culinary olympics.

 

Hey Sho!
Long time no talk. Anyway, try The Galley or Bob's on Bayfront, There's Johnny Carino's on Otay Lakes, VVV (I forget Vina Vedi Vecci or something like that) on 3rd that USED to be good Italian. Another vote for Yokozunas and Buon Giorno too-
Later

Hey Todd! Yeah.. really! Where have you been!? I haven't seen you at any of the meets!!! Thanks for your inputs! I noticed Carino's right across from the Islands but haven't had a chance to go yet. It's good, eh!?

I went to Bento & Noodles today. Not authentic but decent Japanese food.

 

Man, I've been around (on the board at work) but my weekends have been locked with getting my house ready for either sale or rent...(unsure right now). I'm moving to Spain in Feb so I've got tons to do between now and then. To add to it all, I have to drive baby Z to my sisters in MN most likely in Oct for storage in her garage. Fun, Fun! Anyway, I sure would like to make at least one more canyon run or whatever B-4 leaving...I'll just have to make time. Where there's a will there's a way!!
Hopefully see you on the next SOCAL run-
Late
Todd

 

Todd... You are moving to Spain!? for work? for good? guess not for good if you're storing your Z. Wow.. that must be exciting!

Well, Feb is a long way to go so we should have a couple more runs before you leave! See u at the next run!

 

Yep, only temporarily...work=military. I'll keep my eyes out for any future runs. C-Ya!

Hey Andy!
