Sips & snacks: Happy hour oyster deals in San Diego

• Sure, some are better than others — the brinier the better in my opinion.
• But I've personally never met an oyster I didn't like.

What I love: Ironside in Little Italy is a nice place to sit outside and enjoy a sunny afternoon, slurping down gem oysters alongside a crisp glass of rosé.

• Plus, they're $1 a piece, so grab a friend, order two dozen and have yourselves a day.
• I squeeze a lemon wedge and add a spoonful of mignonette sauce on mine.
• If you like a little bite, add a dash of horseradish. And if you're looking for some heat, try the adrenaline jalapeño habanero hot sauce.

When to go: Happy hour is weekdays from 3-5pm
