San Diego is ripe with things to do, see and taste. But sometimes all we truly want is a night in with great takeout and a national bestseller. Whether it’s homey chicken pot pie or Asian flavors you crave, we’ve got you covered. We partnered with Grubhub to bring you a list of top spots to try in San Diego the next time you simply can’t be forced to put shoes on and face the world in order to land a good meal.
The Asian Bistro
Consider The Asian Bistro for your next night in with dinner and a movie. Panang Curried Salmon offers the right kick of heat with the savoriness of the sauce, and the Thai Me Down veggie spring rolls hold up nicely with the rich peanut dipping sauce. Dinner is done.
San Diego Chicken Pie Shop
The World Famous Pie Dinner from the San Diego Chicken Pie Shop lives up to its name. Chicken and turkey pot pie with mashed potatoes and gravy, veggies, coleslaw, buttered roll and a slice of blueberry pie for dessert. Whoa. Delivery just got even better.
San Diego Poke Co
Poke is all the rage these days, but that doesn’t mean having to wait in long lines to enjoy it. The next time you’re perusing Grubhub for your night in, give the San Diego Poke Company a try. Reel Bliss Bowl, with salmon, pineapple, edamame, serrano peppers, and sesame seeds in their sweet and spicy sauce are certainly blissful. The Spicy Tuna Poke Burger is also worthy of some attention, and save room for their Macaron Ice Cream Sandwich. Nights in have never tasted this good.
Streetcar Merchants
Streetcar Merchants offers the best flavors of Carolina BBQ in San Diego. Nashville Hot Chicken Legs, The Classic Chicken Sandwich, and The Southerner--fried chicken topped with bacon, egg, jalapenos with a maple glaze on a halved cinnamon sugar doughnut. Just don't count the calories.
Wich Addiction
Why leave home for anything you need when it can actually be brought to you? Beat the heat today by ordering in rather than going out. For the sandwich and po’ boy-obsessed, may we suggest Wich Addiction. Order the Shrimp Po’ Boy (the crusty bread!), the Spicy Tuna Sandwich (the Sriracha Aioli!), or the Panzanella Salad (so much Parm!) and call it a (very good) night.
