Learning, networking, and exploring on an empty stomach is never a good idea. Fortunately, San Diego is jam-packed with culinary delights of all different types of cuisines. In a single day, you can experience authentic Mexican food, fresh raw macrobiotic cuisine, and one-of-a-kind five-star dining experiences. Oh, and did we mention the jaw-dropping coastal views?
From breakfast to dinner, we’ve picked the best of the best in San Diego. Sample San Diego one bite at a time during the 2023 APTA Combined Sections Meeting.
Odysea
One Park Blvd San Diego,CA 92101
Located at the official APTA CSM conference hotel, Odysea, is known as “A Liquid Adventure.” This waterfront lounge features one-of-a-kind drinks and refreshing bites. Odysea’s perch beside the water – including outdoor terraces – is a coveted gathering place for CSM attendees. Stunning views of the sparkling blue ocean waters will take your breath away and the fresh seafood picks will have you wishing you had brought different pants. But our favorite part about Odysea is that it’s an Ocean Friendly restaurant. Doing as much as they can to reduce plastic and other ocean waste by eliminating the use of Styrofoam or plastic take-out bags, and implementing recycling practices and reusable tableware. Straws are available on request.

They’ve been able to perfect the art of the soft boiled egg. Enjoy classics like edamame and tuna rolls to soft and savory bao bao buns.
