San Diego Civic Theatre : Downtown San Diego Restaurants and Hotel Information

San Diego offers a lively and unique blend of restaurants, bars and entertainment in the heart of vibrant, pedestrian-friendly downtown. Both the Balboa Theatre and Civic Theatre are short strolls away from many first-class hotels and an amazing array of award-winning dining experiences.

Restaurants and Lounges

Whether you are in the mood for sophisticated international dining-by-candlelight, casual California cuisine, lively pubs, steakhouses, seafood restaurants, martini bars or outdoor cafes, you'll find it downtown!

The historic Balboa Theatre is located at the start of the famed Gaslamp Quarter which offers almost any type of dining experience you can imagine. Bars, clubs and after-hour entertainment spots give patrons a variety of choices for after-Theatre desserts, dining or relaxing.

The Civic Theatre is within a short walk of dining options at The Westgate, US Grant, Bristol and Westin Horton Plaza Hotels, and Downtown Johnny Brown's offers casual dining choices on the Plaza directly across from the entrance to the Theatre.
