New near 30th Street?

I've been away from San Diego for a few months and I'm returning for a quick visit. Planning to check out the Thorn Street Brewery and maybe try a pizza at Calabria. Anything new or especially interesting to eat on or near 30th? Probably will be hopping, so more interested in snacks/ casual/ quick bites than a full, seated dinner. I'm pretty familiar with the area, looking for any additions in the past year or so. Thanks.

    while you wait for the awesome buona forchetta to open at 5pm, there's also Eclipse, which recently moved/opened in south park on 30th/fern. It is serving breakfast every day from 9am until 2pm and also has lunch and wine. Very tasty - just polished off a goat cheese panini myself.

      Right across the street from Alchemy, a new Neapolitan-style pizzeria opened up called Buona Forchetta (good fork).

        Thanks to both for the Buon Forchetta tip, I had the margehrita pie and I thought it was quite good, and it was also a perfect San Diego day for al fresco dining. Definitely a nice addition to the South Park area.
