“Pretty good pizza at competitive prices! 2 slices and a brewskie deal is great ;P”
Roger called the Gaslamp pizzeria pretty good at competitive prices and liked the 2-slices-and-a-brewskie deal. (From an unpublished Yelp draft review, never posted publicly.)
A low-key rooftop whiskey-cocktail bar above a Gaslamp hotel; Roger says the list is smaller than Whiskey House or Aero's but the Old Fashioned or Sazerac still hits, alongside tasty tater tots.
A family-owned Gaslamp taqueria Roger calls a great substitute for El Gordo, with more generous portions and carne asada, adobada, and birria all on point.

Tacos near the Gaslamp · A family-run alternative to El Gordo
Roger's late-night fallback near downtown when a taco shop or fast food didn't sound good: freshly made garlic bread and pizza that held up fine at 2am.
