Absolute perfection! We had the bone marrow, the beets, the Crudo, the bread, and the pesto pasta, all were a 10 out of 10 Dakota was our server and he is the best, highly recommend you ask for him!!

caesar salad

I've been to Marisi just once for brunch and it was good. Their menu was small so not too many options to choose from but my friends said their dinner menu is better so I might come back to try that. Their spicy rigatoni was really dry and not spicy at all but that caesar salad and cinnamon roll were delicious.

Porn Star Martini

Obsessed!! We came here for Mother's Day brunch and had a wonderful experience. First off, the decor throughout the entire restaurant, bar, and kitchen was incredible. We sat under their coveted outdoor area but I would love to come back and sit at the bar with live music. For drinks, I loved the Porn Star martini as well as the Espresso Martini. The food menu was a prix fixe, and we loved all of it!! The tiramisu coffee cake was out of the world. The bagel tower with lox was the cutest bagel presentation I've ever seen. And lastly, the lemon bucatini was lovely. I can't wait to come back here and try more items. There was no valet option, so account for time to park.

Tomato Carpaccio

The best dining experience for breakfast to dinner, and one you'll want to come back to again and again. The Marisi team takes great care of you, from the front staff to the thoughtful preparation of each course, and touch of architectural details on the restaurant walls. If you haven't dined at Marisi, do yourself a favor and experience it for all its beauty. I recommend the following: For a pick-me-up, try the Americano. Appetizers: Focaccia Tomato Carpaccio Salad: Little Gem Main Dish: Spicy Rigatoni Grilled Prawns Dessert: Pistachio & Raspberry Soft Serve

Cinnamon Roll
Richelle S.

Came here for brunch with a reservation and we got seated shortly after checking in. Parking was also surprisingly pretty easy. What we ordered: Cinnamon roll - probably one of the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had. They only serve this during brunch so make sure to go for brunch if you want to try it. Focaccia - super soft and super good. We really enjoyed this. Carbonara bucatini - this had good flavor. I wish it had more meat though. Eggs Napolitana - this is a good option if you enjoy tomatoes. My hubby enjoyed this. Pistachio and raspberry soft serve - this was just ok. I wouldn't get it again as I'm not that big of a fan of the flavor. We came here for our anniversary and they gave us a cute little card, and the dessert was complimentary, which was great. I would definitely like to come back again to try the dinner menu. I believe Alysha was our server and she was fantastic!

Great service - but the pastas fell flat The venue was great. Service was great. The servers were friendly and fast. The bone marrow appetizer was huge and delicious. Super impressive presentation for sure. We also got the whole roasted chicken which was really good. The reason for the 3 stars was the pasta. Supposed to be hand made and fresh- what we got was over cooked and gummy. Almost as if - across all 4 pasta plates that we ordered - they had been sitting under heat lamps for a long time before coming to us. The eggs in the carbonara were almost soft scrambled.

Carbonara Bucatini
Carolyn W.

Ambiance, location, and dog friendliness is great 5 stars. Food is mediocre and leaves much to be desired 2 stars. Overall 3 stars Artichoke appetizer was burnt to crisp... so charred Spicy rigatoni was just ok but portions are so small and rly nothing was spectacular for the price. Everything is just cheese or black pepper or tomatoes as garnish. We overheard other neighboring tables being disgruntled with the food as well. Sorry there wont be a next time here. Carbonara authentic but not a fan of. Lots of pepper.

Looking for a place to have lunch in La Jolla and stopped by Marisi for a quick bite. First impressions the place was beautifully decorated and really gave off a bright spring vibe with the flowers. Me & a friend shared their Carbonara bucatini and beef carpaccio, and sadly the carbonara bucatini was very creamy but just a bit too salty for my taste. Ordering the beef carpaccio with is definitely saved it by balancing it out, and we both enjoyed the beef carpaccio a bit more. Just a bit disappointed in how salty our pasta was but definitely would like to try other dishes next time. Very welcoming staff overall as well :)

Initially came to try the "Girl Dinner" set but after looking at the menu, we decided the better option was À la carte due to prices and variety (and we were right). We started the meal with the prosciutto, focaccia, and Little Gem salad. After we finished the appetizers, the pasta took a while to come out, and it came out cold! Everything was unimpressive. The carbonara was salty, did not taste like carbonara. The focaccia was tasteless even with the whipped brown butter, aged balsamic. The best thing from our meal was the Little Gem salad. I will give it to the restaurant for having cute vibes and a nice seating area outside but other than that, I'd skip on the food.

SUCH A DISAPPOINTMENT The food overall was a 1 out of 10. None of us finished our plates. The waitress could have addressed that one 24$ Caesar salad was enough for 2-3 people. Instead we each ordered our own only to leave more than half the bowl since it was too big and the taste of the dressing was bitter. Almost a 200$ bill for an experience we regret. The service was also bad, even on a night that wasn't too busy on Mother's Day. Waitress took really long to check on us. For a place that was "top-rated in 2025", the plates did not meet the expectations, especially from the good reviews on here. I've had much better food at Olive Garden and the Cheesecake Factory. For a "fancy meal", even Mister A's, the Marine Room and Rare Society have better food. Won't be coming back.

Dakota was our waiter he was amazing! Food was sooo good and so were the drinks!!!! Would definitely come back

Cute plate and drink

Good ambiance , everything is very on brand. Looks cute, new and expensive. We had the girl dinner, and I ordered a couple of other extra dishes to get a broader taste of the restaurant. Other Dishes ordered are: funghi and carbonara. Service was good. Well trained and explained everything well. The girl dinner pasta dish was better than the carbonara. But both pasta dish were easy to forget. Carbonara has decent flavor but not executed well technically. The sauce was separated , and looks like scramble egg. Bread was decent (good story on the ancient grain, I was definitely sold). Salad was okay. Funghi has the most potential, but also meh. Had a good time with my friend though.

Bone marrow
Christine D.

It's been a long time since I've been here. I was excited to give this place another chance but left fully disappointed. Came here with a group of friends and tried a few things on the menu. The focaccia with the whipped butter and gem salad was the only things worth eating... Carbonara pasta came out cold and extremely salty. They were kind enough to replace it with another cold and salty pasta. Bone marrow had stale bread and enough marrow for only half the group to try. We ordered our steak medium and it came out medium rare. Our server acknowledged it and sent it back. It tasted/looked like they added into boiling water and over cooked it to almost well done. The ossobuco was okay. The atmosphere is nice but I don't think I'll be back

See all
