Dinner was memorable, but not necessarily in the best ways.The atmosphere reminded us of Italy.The food was well presented.Service was less than adequate - it started out ok (the waiter did cringed when he discovered our party had two toddlers - they were well behaved and quiet); he refused to acknowledge the women at our table, only speaking to the men; service almost disappeared when the woman at the table discovered her filet was rancid (surprised the cook and the waiter could not smell how rancid the steak was - it perfumed the table) - they replaced the meal briskly, and compt her drinks.The steaks were ok - fat not rendered, but did have a nice char.The lambs chops were generous, but again not rendered.The calamari looked beautiful, but were over cooked; the stuffed squash blossoms were over battered.The accompanying mash were perfect, and the micro greens were a nice touch, arugula was arguably over used as a garnish, but the battered fries in the children’s plates were crispy, tasty and the best rated part of our meal.We did not have dessert - we couldn’t find our waiter, until we’re all ready to restart our night.
Absolutely love this place.The food is fantastic every time, and this visit we had the good fortune to sit at the bar and be served by Cheyenne.She makes a mean drink and is witty and fun to talk to, everything you could want out of a bartender.Don't miss the burrata caprese for your appetizer!
I've been coming here for many years now and it's absolutely my favorite Italian restaurant in San Diego.Service is always excellent.I've explored the menu quite a bit and have never had anything I didn't absolutely love, and end up ordering again! If I had to pick a favorite dish, it would probably be the gnocchi cacio e pepe.Give the limoncello cake a try for dessert, or even just a glass of the limoncello itself! Pics are of the carpaccio palmito and ravioli de aragosta.Cannot recommend enough!
