"Patagonia is HQ’ed in Ventura, and this is essentially the Corporate Store in an old industrial building. Super cool."

"Best zoo in the world? Yeah, I think so. Even though the pandas left in 2019, there’s plenty left to see."

"What a cute little corner of Balboa Park, chock full of artists that do everything from painting to ceramics to glasswork. If you can go when there’s a big sale happening in the courtyard, even better"

"The deli sandwiches are gigantic and inexpensive. If you know what you want, call your order ahead instead of waiting in an insane line."

"It ain’t cheap, but it’s incredible. From the food to the service to the lux atmosphere, this is a place for a special occasion that’s fancy, but not stuffy."

"Amazing Italian food. Everything on the menu we tried was fantastic. Fresh pasta? Absolutely."
