With Easter just around the corner, San Diegans are ready to enjoy the springtime holiday by eating — whether it’s brunch, dinner, or just sweet treats, we’ve got you covered for dine-in and take out options across the city.

A number of San Diego restaurants have resumed both indoor and outdoor dining. However, this should not be taken as endorsement for dining in, as there are still safety concerns: For updated information on coronavirus cases in your area, please visit San Diego’s coronavirus tracker. Studies indicate that there is a lower exposure risk when outdoors, but the level of risk involved with on-site dining is contingent on restaurants following strict social distancing and other safety guidelines.
