“My wife and I eat at Ciccia’s regularly but this is our first review after 4 years. Sorry Francesca and Mario! (In my defense I practically never ever write a review.) We keep coming back for the food, ambiance and hospitality. **We’ve gone 3 times in the last week! The crab gnocchi is my wife’s favorite. I get something different almost every time. Every visit I ask Mario about the specials as I like to sample the beef and/or fish (Branzino!) they prepare in addition to pasta. Try the Tomahawk steak if it’s a special that day (call ahead) and you will be amazed. Too many times we fill up on appetizers like mushroom flan, breaded zucchini, calamari, antipasto, and the choices go on! But that’s what to-go containers are for. So much good food to eat at Ciccias we tend to order too many things. It is simply fun to dine there. Once you’re inside the restaurant area (patio area or indoor area) the ambiance is quaint and cozy. Ciccia’s is not big and it’s always filled, but we never feel like it’s too crowded. The energy is always fun and upbeat. Which makes people stay awhile, so let me recommend getting reservations. We’ve had to wait 10-15 minutes but nothing’s perfect! If you want a breezy quick dinner before going off to an event you may want to go to Ciccia’s on another night. Hospitality is what you would expect of a small Italian restaurant run by the owners. Terrific!! If it’s your first time, read their story on the website before you go. They are bona fide top chefs who followed their dreams to open their own place. What a gem it is tucked inside Barrio Logan. One thing regulars may notice is that staff doesn’t appear to turn over much as I’ve seen the same faces working there for years. I think that reflects well on the restaurant. I don’t take pictures of food very often but last night I did. We stopped by at around 9 just to get dessert and a cocktail. My wife had the ricotta cake with apricot and habanero sauce (wow!) and I had cassata siciliana which is traditional cake from Sicily. Pretty to look at and yes, it’s delicious. They do a good job with making an Old Fashioned, which always pairs well with dessert 😜 Buon appetito!“

“Fabulous food served in a no-frills, casual atmosphere. The service was excellent and Chef Luciano Cibelli comes out of the kitchen and checks with every table to see how diners are doing. Great place to celebrate a special occasion. We enjoyed the seafood fettucini, chicken parmesian, and the catch of the day, which was sea bass on a bed of roasted vegetables, with beet purée and a delicious beurre blanc. Delish!“

“Great customer service I had the mobile app glitch called in and the manager Claudia helped me will definitely order again“

“(Translated by Google) It is a great place where you live now and in the present I love their activities and the process they carry out.(Original)Es un gran donde vives el ahora y el presente me encanta sus actividades y el proceso k llevan.“

“Ana at Trident Coffee is incredible! She greeted me with a warm smile and expertly recommended the perfect drink based on my preferences.
Her friendly and enthusiastic attitude truly elevated my experience—Trident is lucky to have her!“

“Very popular spot good food minus the onions“

“Very cute family run cafe. Loved the atmosphere and the classical music made for a very cozy nice spot for breakfast. The seating was comfortable. The family owners were very friendly. Our coffee was delicious and the avocado toast was good.“

“Excellent food and the service was splendid.“

“Best pizza in the valley!“

“Came to TNT on the recommendation of a local and holy f*** balls I was blown away. If I had the disposable income I’d buy a private jet and fly to San Diego to eat here once a week and fly home, my carbon foot print would look like a slice of their pizza and I would okay with it cause my belly and soul would be content. Every pizza I have after this will be a disappointment to me.“

“Tastylife™️. Would buy treats again.“

“I’ve been ordering meals from Lean Machine for years. I’ve tired a few other meal service companies but no one compares. They’re the only ones that allow you to customize your meals by portion, carb, protein and vegetable choice. They also have great customer service.“

“Best eggs benedict I've ever had. It's on a croissant instead of the classic dry English muffin. Homemade hollandaise sauce. Came with both perfectly crispy and seasoned potatoes and with a nice greens salad with a good vinaigrette. We beat the line but it was still a little backed up. Absolutely worth a wait. Shout out to Leon, Dove, Marques, and Manuel for working hard and being so polite during the rush.

Edit to add my husband's gingerbread apple French toast something or other was also to die for. Like, dang. Perfect balance of sweet and salty. Perfectly cooked. Could taste butter. Just phenomenal.“

“Tacos were the best we ever had.“

“Just received these as a gift ! Beautiful packaging! Great taste!“

“My wife and I hired Phatties to bake our wedding cake this past weekend. We could not be more impressed with how mazing and delicious our cake was. I am vegan and my wife had allergies so finding a cake that would be good for us both was kind of difficult. We presented a picture of our desired wedding cake and requested it to be made vegan, gluten free, coconut and almond free. Phatties not only nailed the color, design and declarations to a t, the cake was absolutely delicious, and all of our non vegan guests that it tasted amazing. Thank you so much for making us the best cake possible. We are so happy to have found your bakery and would recommend you to anyone.“

“Really enjoyed our first visit to Parkhouse. Definitely coming back. Food and drinks were delicious. The service was exceptional“

“Cute little patisserie. I visited on my way to the farmer’s market. They were busy but efficient, so the wait was quite short. I was just in Paris a few months ago and had pain au chocolate almost every day, so that’s what I got today and it tasted very similar. The way they display the food, have some outside seating, and overall atmosphere reminded me of some of the places in Paris.“

“I’m hooked, I always feel great after eating here! The cashew cheese is incredible, highly recommend.“

“Great vibes awesome food and the service was 👍🏼“

“the best place to eat, the food is delicious and the service is excellent! super recommended“

“So stoked they have vegan rolled tacos! I tried both the potato and the lentil quinoa. Both are delicious, but the lentil quinoa ones blew me away!! 🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽 They are so flavorful and the tortillas are crispy and crunchy, yet not hard. Also awesome is that they pack everything separately so the food isn’t a soggy mess when you get home. I added vegan sour cream I had at home and topped it with their guacamole, lettuce and salsa. They were heavenly!! I also appreciate that they fry their vegan tacos in a separate fryer. 🙌🏽Also, thank you for not using styrofoam. The containers for the to go orders are compostable made of plant fiber. The place is beautifully decorated, clean, and the staff were very courteous. I will definitely return. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Great food specially their pad thai. Servers are nice and very welcoming. Will definitely come back over and over again. I’ve found one of the BEST Thai Restaurant in San Diego“

“I had their products before and I was just impressed with them but I bought a mothers day cake i was blown away it was DELICIOUS moist plenty of flavor ( strawberries heart) I recommend it if you're looking a fantastic cake full of flavor a fantastic cake look no more Hans & Harry's is the place 😋“

“Bomb food 🥘 clean dining area good service“

“Great vegan food ☕️🍰🧋💛🧡💙❤️💜“

“Good brews and great appetizers. The mini-deep dish pizza 🍕 is great!“

“Delicious as always. We tried one of the new menu items - pepper chicken. Oh wow! Amazing! Will definitely order again. We love PF Chang's. My only complaint is that you make a reservation on Open Table but it's not an actual “reservation.” We still have to wait at least 30 minutes which is annoying. If you can't honor a reservation time then don't offer it in the first place. It won't stop us from returning though because the food is so dang good.“

“These sandwiches are AMAZING! seriously. My fav: ACROBAT !!!!“

“All the waitresses there are very friendly“

“Truly wonderful Thai food, would eat here often if we were local!“

“Absolutely delicious food, friendly staff, and cozy atmosphere! This place is wonderful“

“You have to try this place! I love their unique creation of flavors in their food and drinks; they are healthy, tasty, and artistic.“

“Lilya ur bartender she’s amazing“

“Located in a convenient location close to Santa Fe railway station. This place caught my eye, as I like colorful coffee drinks. I got the iced rose latte, the coffee and taste itself was not out of world, it was decent. The ambience and service was great.“

“Pesto Craft Kitchen is a gem that masterfully blends East Coast boldness with West Coast freshness, all wrapped in the comforting warmth of Italian tradition. From the moment you walk in, you can tell this place is serious about flavor and hospitality. If you’re looking for a place that feeds both your cravings and your conscience, this is it.“

“Because of my PCOS, I have had to really change my diet and go more toward paleo/keto eating. I was really missing baked goods and thought I would give this a try. Got the keto donuts and they were AMAZING. Moist and sweet. No weird texture or lingering aftertaste. Definitely going to come back!! The man at the counter was also super friendly and helpful. 10/10“

“3/5 for a first timer during restaurant week… the special menu was $50 per person…. we never got any bread with our dinner (and didn’t realize we were left out until we were on dessert)… and, portions were small, so the bread would have been nice, especially for $50… also, the server made us make our food order at the same time as our drinks… personally, i like to have a drink or two before i order my food… so, the service was rushed in that sense… and no one asked me if i wanted a second glass of wine i had the veal and my friend had the lobster ravioli… both tasted decently but, again, small portions… the burrata was amazing and the desserts (tiramisu and lava cake) were pleasant i think i’d like to try again on a night that isn’t as busy, and order off of the actual menu“

“Absolutely amazing experience with friendly above and beyond staff. Our server helped us order the best food for us and even sat with us and showed us the best way to eat it! 10/10 will be repeat customers . We got the meat sambusa, meat combo, veggie combo, and awash special tibs - spicy . We almost ate everything between the 4 of us, and def took the rest home.“

“The food the service is amazing. VERY bad experience that little Roma restaurant I should’ve known better that there’s no place like Nonna’s.“

“This place is a real Gem, excellent coffee, tea & pastries. Cigar friendly, with a nice selection for sale. Even as a tourist you get that local neighborhood vibe and they treat ya like family! Staff was so friendly and hospitable! Loved the decor and atmosphere, this place will definitely be one of my go to stops when we visit again!“

“I love everything about this place! It’s not just a good eatery - It’s an experience.“

“We love this place. When ever we are in San Diego it’s a must!“

“I love good, freshly baked bread and we have been looking all over San Diego to find it. Secret Sisters has the best country loaf yet and we highly recommend it!!!!!!!!! For us, it's a bit of a drive but worth it.“

“Their pastries are exquisite. I’ll be pining for their almond croissants for years to come. Thank you for the delicious treat.“

“The food is amazing with good portion sizes. The prices are just right. We went back the next day for round 2. Tried different items and it did not disappoint. We will come back again and again.“

“My waiter Lew was awesome �“

“This is our third time visiting insideOUT and we love this spot. Decor is Spring beautiful, drinks and the food are delicious. Service is excellent. They are quick to fill your water, take your order and bring your food out. Definitely one of our top restaurants in San Diego.“
