One of my favorite places in San Diego for happy hour is La Puerta on 4th Avenue in the Gaslamp District. Currently, everyday from 4 to 7 p.m. they have an appetizer menu and their excellent margaritas for half price. They make their drinks with real lime juice. I like the Low Rider with salt myself. With choices on the appetizer menu including Guacamole, Quesadillas, Flautitas, Carne Asada Fries, and Tostaditas who can go wrong. My personal favorites are the Guacamole and Pollo Asado Quesadillas, but I want to try the T.J. Dawgs, which is a bacon wrapped turkey hot dog. Tuesday is Street Taco Tuesday for only $2.00 per taco. One warning, be careful of the habanero hot sauce, my mouth is still burning.
