Amazing Italian food . So authentic and I must say my favorite was the marina sauce they give you with the bread . So delicious. Can't wait to go back.

The Filetto of Gorgonzola ( terrific) and the Linguine alla Scoglio in either white or red wine sauce are AMAZING !!! Try it , you will NOT be disappointed.

If they have the squid ink fettuccine in the specials, get it! The texture is insanely good, and the sausage and octopus were so fresh and flavorful.

Seafood pasta with white wine sauce is something to die for. One of the best Italian restaurants in town for sure.

Small Itailian restaurant reminds me of those from Little Italy in San Francisco. The staff is nice and the seafood dishes are good. Enjoy with a glass of wine for lunch and finish with a cappuccino .

Shrimp Linguine was excellent. Service was excellent.

Jennifer Hwang

The food at this place never disappoints but you must arrive super early around 6p to avoid a long wait on Friday or Saturday since they don't take reservations those nights. Try the duck salad !

Service was great and our party loved everything!

Nice small restaurant . Takes about 50 minutes wait if you don't have a reservation on a Saturday.

The penne Bolognese was perfect, with a creaminess to balance the bite of the meat and topped with mascarpone . The sommelier offered some great suggestions.

Michael Ord

The osso bucco is simply one of the best meals in San Diego, if you're not into eating veal then you can't go wrong with the lasagna .
