san diego
I'm taking my daughter to San Diego for spring break. Do you have any restaurant recommendations that a nine year old will love? She is not a picky eater. We love Jim Lahey styled pizza also, if there are any good pizza places.

For something more upmarket Oceanaire down in the Gas Lamp district is superb.
I also like The Mission Cafe in North Park for a hearty, unpretentious breakfast or lunch. The food is pretty basic, but it's tasty and kid-friendly, I think. It gets very crowded at brunch-time on weekends and there can be long waits to get in though, so weekdays may be more practical.
Soda & Swine on Adams Ave. is good too. They have a small a la cart menu of only sliders, sides, and -- as you might have guessed -- unusually flavored sodas. Everything I've had there has been really yummy -- esp. the smoked pork slider.
Bear in mind that these aren't higher-end places at all; I'm just trying to think of places with fairly simple, tasty food and a casual atmosphere that a kid would enjoy.
Sorry I don't have a pizza place to recommend; when we want pizza I usually make it!
Hope this helps and enjoy your trip!
