I second the el indio recomendation! A little off the beaten path - but amazing burritos .... my favorite when I lived there is the chili rellano burrito ... it is massive and delicious!

Yes, it was sad day when Tower closed its doors. It was the last of the "late night record stores" to quote BNLs. I have only hazy partial memories of the times I went to Foggy's Notion. :confused: Enjoy your return to SoCal.
 
Food and music !! Life is great ? Also the taco shop ( was on mam vs food ) great food across from el Indio
 
Ok, so here's an alternate afternoon itinerary.

Go to Ocean Beach in San Diego and stroll Newport Ave.

Stop in at the Black and have a mind trip back to the 70's. Keep your eyes open for several of the used/resale shops - some have small bins for used LPs.

Head to the used LP shop called Cow Records and spend an hour flipping the bins.

Then walk across the street to the South Coast Bar & Grille - go UP the stairs to the bar area (no kids) and order some of their famous fish tacos - the shrimp tacos are killer, too. Go on a Tuesday or Thursday for the taco sale day.

If the weather is nice - stroll the longest concrete pier on the West Coast.

If you get thirsty, there are some brew pubs to quench it.

As mentioned - Hodad's serves killer burgers, but the lines can get long unless you get there early.
