Occupying the southwest corner of the United States along the Mexican border and the Pacific coast, San Ysidro offers a taste of southern Californian cuisine. With its close proximity to Mexico, it should come as no surprise that authentic Mexican food is easy to come by. Enjoy a plate of steak quesadillas, fish tacos made made with fish caught just miles away, or other tacos filled with a variety of meats like slow-roasted lamb. Outside of Mexican cuisine, ethnic flavors can be had by ordering a bowl of pho at a Vietnamese spot or dumplings at a Chinese restaurant. Stop into a sushi bar and have a California roll. To satisfy your sweet tooth, order some freshly made churros or a cone of soft-serve ice cream.
