We also took home some baked goods. It's so hard to find gluten-free French toast and baked goods that are actually good, and these were UNBELIEVABLE. You would never guess they were gluten-free. The vibe was cute and laid back and the service incredible. Despite the fact that it was very busy, the food came out really quickly. I will absolutely head back down to IB just to come here again. 10/10 recommend.

I tried their farmer's sandwich and chose a jalapeño cheddar bagel. On it was sausage, bacon, egg,…read morecream cheese and red onion, and it was awesome. The egg was perfect! They also have a young man who plays jazz piano there every Sunday, so the ambiance is pretty awesome along with the nice weather. Sometimes it can get windy so bring a sweater, but otherwise, it's usually a really nice day to hang out with friends and family. I also had a matcha ginger thyme latte with oat milk which was just tasty since ginger is a rare flavor in coffee drinks. I loved it, and it was so good that I took an extra one home. The service is amazing, and on busy days you may have to wait a bit, but it's worth it. If you have any questions about a dish, don't hesitate to ask!

It's dog friendly which is a huge plus and they have awesome taco Tuesday and happy hour prices (3-6pm daily and Monday 3pm-close) on beers cocktails and apps. I went on a Tuesday (missed happy hour unfortunately) and tried a fried fish taco and grilled swordfish taco. Both were delicious and I ordered a side of fries which was also great. My friend got the calamari app and it was also good. We each tried a cocktail, I had a passionfruit margarita and she had an old fashioned and we had a cold beer after. No complaints at all everything was cold and fresh. I would definitely come back. It's a popping little spot with good food and good service.

The pairings and taco selection was unique but not overly adventurous, which I like. Great beer selection. I ordered a half dozen oysters on the half shell. They were outstanding.

They were absolutely perfect. Far exceeding my expectations. The outside was exceptionally crisp but not oily. The jicama and cucumber slaw added such a great freshness that enhanced every bite. An exceptional experience overall. Especially coupled with the ocean views. I'll be back!

But Balsamico deserves its review, especially when the food is this incredibly delightful. We stopped by for Restaurant Week and although the service was a bit slow (which is to be expected when everyone has the same idea), our server was friendly, knowledgeable and offered great suggestions. We opted for the Montepulciano wine, the Truffle Arancini to start, the Pappardelle al Brasato (with slow-braised beef...holy moly, SOOOO flavorful !), and the pumpkin tiramisu for dessert. Oh and we also ordered the Gnocchi Pesto Shrimp because...why not? I have to say, every single dish was a 10/10! And can we talk about the Truffle Arancini for a second? It came with three little risotto balls, and I genuinely did not want to share the third one with my husband. They were easily some of the most creamiest risotto I've tasted to date. Everything we had that day was bursting in flavor. Honestly, you can't go wrong with Balsamico. Can't wait to go back.

We enjoyed trying authentic Italian cuisine at Balsamico Italian Kitchen in Imperial Beach, CA…read more The first time I had a taste of this restaurant was during a Yelp Elite Week event and so glad we finally had a chance to try it because everything we ordered was excellent 5/5 stars!! The owners are from Modena, Italy sharing their delicious recipes from back home. I had to do a little research on Modena because I had never heard of this city. It's north of Tuscany. Modena is a city in Italy's Emilia-Romagna region, famous for its UNESCO World Heritage historic center, luxury car industry (Ferrari & Maserati), and world-renowned gastronomy, particularly traditional balsamic vinegar, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and Lambrusco wine. The restaurant provided complimentary bread with their homemade balsamic vinaigrette, which was excellent!! We recommend trying the following dishes: *Lobster Ravioli (MY FAVORITE) *Bolognese Lasagna *Mushroom Ravioli *Calamari Appetizer -w/restaurant made marinara The restaurant makes their own pasta. For dessert, we recommend trying their restaurant made: * Tiramisu *Crème brûlée (MY FAVORITE) The restaurant offers cooking classes for adults and children (6+) so be sure to check out their instagram page for workshop dates and times. There's indoor and outdoor seating with enough room for large groups. We had excellent customer service by server Jacob and are definitely coming back soon; check it out!! Happy Yelping :)

The chilaquiles and beans with chorizo were delicious, and the strawberry pancakes were the perfect sweet addition to breakfast.

The restaurant was packed, which says a lot about how popular this spot is. There's a great variety of breakfast options, and everything I tried was delicious. I'm definitely adding El Prieto Coffee to my list of places to visit whenever I'm in San Diego. If you're looking for a Mexican breakfast spot in Chula Vista, give this place a try!
