La Mesa, California: Anthony’s Fish Grotto; restaurant review

Anthony’s Fish Grotto  

9530 Murray Dr./Grossmont Summit Dr., (619) 463-0368.  Sun–Thu 11am-8:30pm, F–Sat 11am-9pm. 

With an elaborate entrance designed to resemble a fish grotto, this old-time restaurant has huge windows that look out on a large manmade lake with a fountain and some ducks.  The interior of Anthony's Fish Grotto is rife with shell decor, and plenty of booths make it very comfortable.  Outdoor seating is available for nice days.  It is reputed to have the best seafood in San Diego.  Lunch has some bargains, including divine fish and chips (I love the combo featuring both cod and shrimp) as well as pristine versions of other prime fish-house suspects.
