Bully's Del Mar, del Mar

The place can be very busy, but it is still worth it

A great local hangout with great food at reasonable prices. Highly recommend the Prime Rib and the Bully Burger.

Bully's is one of the very few places in North County San Diego where you can actually eat a decent meal after 9 PM. The prime rib is the dish of choice, and I'd say that Lawry's (up in L.A.) is the only prime rib that trumps it. Against all other competitors, Bully's stacks up nicely. I'd recommend a gin & tonic at the bar while you are waiting to be seated. The decor is pretty sweet, too. Low key, but still nice.
