“If you are looking for a true Italian experience in San Diego, look no further than Vinarius! We worked with Giuseppe (owner) to host our wedding celebration here back in March, 2023. From the beginning, he was amazing to work with. Incredibly positive and accommodating from the start, we couldn’t have asked for more. The wedding ceremony was planned to be outside and of course, it rained that day. Guiseppe and his staff went above and beyond to accommodate us, allowed us to have the small ceremony inside the restaurant on short notice and made an incredible meal to follow. Our guests were blown away and we couldn’t have been happier. We recommend Vinarius to everyone we know and that is thanks to Giuseppe and his awesome staff. Grazie mille!”

“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!”

“I love this place! I came here for the first time a few years ago for brunch, for my husband’s birthday and we loved it. Last night we decided to come back for dinner to celebrate our anniversary and it was the best decision we made! We sat on the patio facing the bay at sunset. It was so relaxing on the patio, not super busy. The service was amazing and the food even better! My husband had the prawns and I had the black risotto. Delicious! They even gave us a complimentary dessert in honor of our anniversary. So sweet! We will definitely be coming back soon!”

“This was our 1st anniversary in November, 1991. This is the first booth inside the door, our favorite. In the several years before meeting Patti, I had taken more than a few dates to Baci’s. Why go there? The food, the service, the personal interaction with staff. Talking to the owner once, I discovered he was neighbors with my roommates brother. We left San Diego in 1992 but winter there since retiring and visit Baci’s every year. So happy they’re still going strong.”

“Was in San Diego for a family reunion and found this restaurant by accident. Great place for some good Italian food. After living in Italy for a number of years nice to discover a place who knows how to prepare authentic Italian food. Next time we come to San Diego we will be enjoying food at Tavola Nostra Pizzeria e Cucina. Grazie per tutte - cibo e buono .”

“Really nice little chocolate shop with a good variety of treats. Everything looked fresh and nicely presented, and there were plenty of different flavors to choose from. I liked that they had both simple chocolate options and some more interesting ones too. The staff was friendly and didn’t make things feel rushed while looking around. Prices seemed pretty reasonable for the quality. It has a nice, relaxed feel to the place and would be a good spot to grab something sweet for yourself or pick up a small gift. Overall, a pleasant experience and I’d be happy to check out more of what they offer.”

“Rosinas is consistently excellent authentic Italian food. The only food downside ( which is why I gave Food a 4 out of 5 rating), is their Ceaser salad...it is consistently bland, really watery, and tasteless...such an unpleasant surprise given that ALL of the other salads are so delicious, and ALL of the other food is delicious. Rosina, PLEASE update the Ceaser salad..it is really awful.”

“Absolutely fantastic experience at Osteria Cotto e Mangiato! The service from Andrea (owner) was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Every dish we ordered was incredible-from the rich, comforting Carbonara w/anchovies to the Captain's Treasure chest is unexplainable good, everything was cooked to perfection. You can really taste the quality and care in each bite. This place is a gem in San Diego for anyone craving authentic Italian cuisine. Oh, by the way, did I mention the Tiramisu... WOW!! Can’t wait to come back!”

“Overall, a very good Italian dining experience. The food averaged around 4 stars, but the excellent service and great atmosphere made the experience very special. For appetizers, the tuna tartare was very good, and the chopped salad was amazing. The Sunday Supper spaghetti was a solid four stars. It was a heavier dish, but still enjoyable. The cream sauce pastas were also very good, earning four stars. The branzino was a standout at five stars, while the polenta was a solid four. The service was excellent throughout the meal, and the atmosphere made the experience even better. While not every dish was exceptional, there were several highlights, and the overall dining experience was definitely worth four stars.”

“After a disappointing experience at a neighboring restaurant, we came to Filippi’s for a redemption dinner, and it absolutely delivered. At first, we weren’t quite sure where the restaurant was because you walk into what looks like an Italian market, but the dining area is tucked away in the back. Once seated, our waitress was attentive, friendly, and witty, which made the experience even better. I ordered the lasagna with a meatball on the side, and the portions were huge, especially considering how reasonably priced everything was. We finished with plain cheesecake and tiramisu, and the desserts were to die for. Great food, generous portions, reasonable prices, and wonderful service. This ended up being exactly the redemption dinner we needed. Would definitely recommend and come back!”

“Wonderful authentic upscale Italian restaurant with a cool Ferrari/F1 theme. The Italian owners and staff have worked hard to bring San Diego’s red sauce district an avant-garde Italian experience with modern takes on authentic Italian classics. The pasta was made in-house and meat and seafood entrees were all first-rate. Highly recommend!”

Una Pizza Napoletana, a popular spot in New York, has just been named the best pizza in the world by the 2024 Italian 50 Top Pizza ranking. This is a major victory for owner Anthony Mangieri, who has already earned the title of best pizza in the U.S. for three years in a row.
Naples-born Rosso Pomodoro has landed in Denver. The Italian pizza franchise just opened its first U.S. location in the city's Central Park neighborhood at 29th Ave Town Center. "It has long been a dream to introduce our brand of authentic Neapolitan-style pizza to every corner of America,” CEO Nicola Saraceno shared his excitement.
Totonno's Pizzeria Napolitana, a 100-year-old Coney Island eatery, is looking for a buyer or partner to keep its legacy alive, but it has one important condition. Totonno's has made it through fires, floods, and even COVID, but there's one thing they'll never tolerate: pineapple on their pizza.
