Gianni was an amazing host, we had our friends Christmas dinner here and everything was amazing. Beautiful restaurant.

I ordered the lobster bisque and bone marrow pasta. It was really tasty. They did not have any iced coffee so I got an espresso martini instead.

Perfect evening! Amazing food and over the top service! Recommend this place to anyone that asks for a place to eat!
Grace
Our waiter was extremely rude to us. So much so that other staff members apologized to us for his behavior on our way out.

Romantic place, it was a windy, rainy, cold night but the atmosphere was cozy and everyone was helpful in making sure we were all warm.

Small place but cozy and good aesthetic. The bar is pretty cool. The food was really good. Best gnocchi I've had in a while. Drinks, dinner, and dessert were all awesome. And priced well for downtown SD. I'd go again for sure

Great spot for a girls night or a cute date night! The service was fantastic and the food was pretty good (didn't blow us out of the water, but it was good). Beautiful atmosphere and the staff was friendly and prompt.

We had a really disappointing experience during our visit. Our reservation was at 8:15 and our table wasn’t ready yet so we were told we could go to the bar. Once we got to the bar, things only got worse. The bartender was rude and dismissive, especially toward my friend — making her feel like he didn’t know what drink she was ordering and acting like he couldn’t understand what she was asking for. She offered to pull up the ingredients of the drink and he rudely corrected her on the name of the drink. He also made an unnecessary comment asking our group if we were “really going to let the bride pay for her own drink,” which was completely uncalled for and just weird.
When two seats opened up at the bar, two girls in our group sat down, only to be told shortly after that we had to get up because two men who had just arrived “had reservations for the bar.” That didn’t sound right, so we called the restaurant and confirmed that bar seating is actually first come, first serve.
At this point (9pm), our table still was not ready and we left extremely uncomfortable and very upset. Definitely not the level of service or professionalism we expected.
