Soo and Maggie blog about our adventures in San Diego and other parts of the world.
Anthony’s 1360 N Harbor Drive San Diego, CA
Star of the Sea
Since 1947 – 2017 January 31
Why must ‘progress’ almost always be labeled as major demolition? We should endeavor to save our landmarks and historic buildings for our future generation.
Anthony’s has given San Diego residents and tourists from around the world exceptional service and time honored dishes for over 70 years. They should receive praise, loyal customers, the key to San Diego and an accepted proposal from the the City’s Port Commission enabling them to renovate and stay for another 70 years, rewarding them for providing such a lovely establishment.
Unfortunately that did not happen, the Port Commission voted them out. Choosing not to keep a treasured landmark. Makes me wonder just how many more landmarks will disappear because of the Port Commission.
Craig Ghio, chief executive of Anthony’s and grandson of the founder, said the Port Commission and its staff ignored public support for Anthony’s and its decades-long tradition as San Diego’s most famous restaurant.

Just love this place! The view the food, what more could you ask for? Yes well a lease renewal would be nice for starters.
But don’t fret they do have another location in La Mesa, with all the same wonderful, classic food.

I use a combination of my iPhone and my Fujifilm X-E2 camera for all my photographs. Just depends on where I am as to which one I'll use to take my pictures with. I love to write original stories combined with my photographs.

2015
A couple since 2003 and now on the precipice of this new journey, our fondest hope is this website serves a purpose. One of useful information presented in an elegant, beautiful photographic setting.
Together we love to discover new restaurants, food trucks, diners, café’s, huts or where ever we find food being served. The love of artful, carefully crafted, passionately orchestrated food, beverages and let’s not forget desert, Is something we both enjoy immensely. Immersing ourselves in the history, culture and surrounding locations of our adventures hopefully leads to not only meeting new people, but making new friends, sharing ideas, listening to stories and learning something new everyday.

That’s good how you documented their last days with the cool photos. Eat there while you can!
Thanks! I will! So glad they still have the La Mesa location. :>)
