Ketch Joanne and Princeton Seafood at the Pillar Point Harbor. Both serve excellent seafood and are different in their own way. To save some $$, you can print a 25-dollar gift certificate for both places from restaurant.com. If you join their e-mail list, you'll get notification when they discount their certificates. Very often, they cut their certificate price 80% (or $2-dollars) for a $25-dollar certificate. We went to Princeton on a Friday night and our bill came to $41 for three meals....after the certificate and tip, we ended up spending around $23-dollars for 3 full meals.

El Gran Amigo Taqueria!!!! About 10 minutes walking from the hostel. Best carnitas [super] quesadilla I've ever had. And I've had quite a few carnitas quesadillas in my life. Also, they have beer, so it's a perfect relaxing dinner after a long day of traveling.
