Ah--gotcha. Well, there's the Rock Bottom Brewery, Gordon Biersch (get the garlic fries!), there's also a Karl Strauss downtown, and if you get to Scripps Ranch there's the Ballast Point Brewery. All of them ROCK. Then if you're in the touristy shit there's the Kansas City BBQ on Harbor--same bar/joint that was used in the movie Top Gun, and the BBQ isn't all that bad either.
