Food and Fun get Refueled at R Gang Eatery
Top Chef’s Rich Sweeney revamps home-style cooking at his Hillcrest hot spot.
Top Chef Season 5 alum Rich Sweeney’s R Gang Eatery has quickly become one of Hillcrest’s places to see and be seen. Chef Sweeney offers contemporary, retro-American fare, fresh ingredients and tons of fun – it even says so on the wall in big red block letters – at his first signature restaurant in San Diego. The menu features modern twists on mom’s home cooking to combine fine-dining with the warm, fuzzy feeling only comfort food can provide. Open for lunch, dinner and a weekend brunch, every patron who walks through the door will feel like part of the gang. Closed on Mondays. 3683 Fifth Avenue, San Diego. 619.677.2845. rgangeatery.com
