This addition to the San Diego downtown dining scene has its roots in the surfer culture of Ocean Beach, where the permissive parent restaurant has gathered legions of fans. Now, near Padre Park, Hodad's hopes to grow up a little without growing old. Burgers of the biggest, greasiest, most utterly satisfying kind are still the rule here, with a choice of fries or onion rings to accompany them. The atmosphere is nearly as frenetic as the beach town location, which has been featured on Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-ins and Dives show, but will the juice-down-the-shirt succulence survive complaints by the suit and tie set? Better eat there now. Open till 10 pm every night in summer.
