The Best Restaurant in North Park, San Diego
Breakfast Republic : Local Popular Restaurant
Breakfast Republic was born in North Park, San Diego, CA!! You will find a long line if you go around noon on weekends.
I personally recommend “Pancake Flight” that you can choose 3 types of pancake. I ordered Churro, Strawberry mascarpone, and Oreo. 🥞 Shrimp Grits is also good if you like a bit of spiciness.

Lucha Libre : Wrestling themed Mexican Restaurant
Lucha Libre is located on University ave. It’s interesting that this Mexican restaurant is wrestling-themed.
They have tacos, burritos, and also “Carne asada fries” which is San Diegoan Food. Plus, I like their sauce which is spicy for me, but really good 🔥❤️
