Teressa W.

If you're out late, enjoying a night downtown and are looking for a place to keep the drinks coming and get your greasy grub on to coat your stomach so the drinks can keep flowing, this is your place. The people who work here are always on point - they are friendly and chill and handle the crowds like a champ. Place was packed as the night wore on and the service never disappointed. When the drinks hit, this place slaps.

Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich

If you want a break from the bar food, this is the place to go! Their pasta is unforgettable and their phillies are to die for! Their great beer selection will have you here until last call. Sabine and Eddie will make sure you get everything you want!

Sausage pizza

We are here for an RSVLTS event and the staff is overly awesome! Good food, cold beer, but they desperately need AC. Everyone is dripping sweat.

"Chicken Parmesan"
Lucia O.

Cannot speak for dining in or their pizza but DO NOT recommend picking up lunch to-go or the chicken parm. Straight thievery to charge damn near $30 for this garbage. Looks like my 12 year old made it except it tasted like my dog did. They keep the doors wide open & no AC inside so it was WARM & MUGGY to say the least. Don't think I could trust anything else on their menu which sucks because I work so close. Oh, & apparently there's only 1 register so I spent my entire break waiting for the cashier to ring up 1 person using 50 gift cards. Dine at your own risk.

Oily, soggy pizza
Lauren D.

This pizza was so soggy it collapsed under its own weight. Undercooked dough, wet crust, and zero structure. Completely unappetizing and a waste of money. I couldn't even finish a slice. Service was fine

Meat ravioli and chicken pesto panini with fries
Jeremy G.

I come here for lunch whenever I have a chance. you never have to wait long for anything here, and you won't be disappointed in any of your choices, from the pizza, of course, to the pastas and paninis, the Chef David really makes it a special experience. they have a patio which is really nice for people watching, or you can sit at the bar and stay warm by the oven.

Seems strange to not have the real deal in a pizza place.
Laurie G.

Enjoyed the pizza (Margherita) and attentive service by Ana and very good, friendly service by Tubga but the cook and an off duty server (with blonde hair) were messing around, swearing up a storm, f--- this, f--- that. Their voices were very loud. Not a pleasant experience at all. After they left the serving area, I was able to relax and enjoy the evening again. Also, paper packets of Parmesan? Seems odd in a pizzeria.

No. It's just a no. Go to Gaslamp pizza so at least you can be spoken to respectfully. Overpriced and clearly prepackaged foods.

Where is the best place for parking?

As the streets are blocked on Thursdays I would recommend Ace parking is down on 4th and F or any street parking you can park on yellow zone after 7 .

This was more than dinner. It was an experience…read more We sat tucked away in a little corner that honestly felt like we were having dinner in someone's grandmother's house, and I mean that in the BEST way possible. Cozy, warm, intimate and welcoming. And the FOOD?! I was convinced somebody's Italian grandmother had to be downstairs hand making that pasta because there was no other explanation. I had the lobster ravioli and started with the bruschetta tostada. Everything was absolutely chef's kiss. Fresh, flavorful and tasted like it was made with love. But what made the experience even better was our waiter, Mauricio! He was simply amazing. He genuinely took care of us, shared the story of the restaurant and talked about how much he enjoyed working there. And you could tell. It showed in the way he treated us and the attention he gave throughout the entire meal. Great food is one thing. Great food paired with genuine hospitality is something completely different. I will DEFINITELY be back the next time I'm in San Diego. If you're looking for homemade pasta, amazing food and that warm family feel, put this place on your list. You will not be disappointed.

Great find. Looking forward to our next visit here. Ask for a Luca You won't be disappointed…read more.

We had dinner at Nonna on a Thursday evening while visiting San Diego, and it was one of the…read morehighlights of our trip. We sat outside on the sidewalk, it was relaxed and welcoming. The real star was our server, Marcelo. Instead of just taking our order, he asked each of us what we like and suggested a dish for everyone. He was spot on. I had the Rigatoni Palermitana, with sausage, pomodoro, capers, olives and a kick of Calabrian chili, and it was exactly what I was hoping for. Everyone in our party loved the meal. It felt like eating at an Italian grandmother's table, which fits the name. If you're in Little Italy, go, and ask for Marcelo! PS don't forget the gelato!

Sunday evening in Little Italy, and Nonna was PACKED. Somehow, we managed to snag a table outside…read moreright next to the Little Italy sign, and honestly, it couldn't have been a better spot. After a long day at the beach, we ordered a bottle of wine, and I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't ridiculously overpriced. Sitting outside, enjoying a glass of wine and watching Little Italy come alive was exactly what we needed. Our server was exceptional. The service was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. But let's talk about the food... The food was AMAZING. We ordered several different things, and everything we tried was delicious, but the pappardelle with short ribs was the standout. The pasta was absolutely fantastic--rich, comforting, and exactly the kind of Italian comfort food you want at the end of a long day. And then there was the dessert case... Oh. My. Goodness. Everything in that case looked like it was personally designed to make you regret saying, "No, we're too full for dessert." Nonna was exactly what we were hoping for that evening: great food, great service, a beautiful Little Italy setting, and a relaxed atmosphere where we could sit outside and enjoy ourselves. I can't wait to go back and eat some more Italian comfort food--and next time, I'm getting the tiramisu.

Great service and food. Reasonable prices and good selection of entries. Large portions.read more

We came here to celebrate my husband's birthday. I made the table reservation the day of and was…read moreable to get a table for 4 on a Saturday night. What I didn't think about was the parking. The area was crowded, with people and cars everywhere, and parking can get very competitive, both physically and price-wise. Anyways, we decided on the parking garage across the street so we could make our reservation and finally enjoy some food! I actually called ahead after placing our reservation to let them know we were having a hard time finding parking, and they were so kind to say they would still hold our table! Amazing! (Pro Tip: Valet service is sometimes cheaper than parking garages.) Anyways, once we got to the restaurant, we checked in, and sure enough, our table was ready, and we were able to order our food promptly. I learned they don't serve free bread, bummer, but it was okay; everything else made up for it. Our server was so friendly and helpful; he was prompt in getting our order in and attentive to what our little ones needed. He made sure their food came out first! So they didn't have to wait so long! Good thing, too! No one especially enjoys hangry kids. We ordered fried calamari as an appetizer, campanelle sausage, and from the kids' menu: alfredo penne and mac and cheese, which also comes with a drink and ice cream! Oh, and my husband ordered a red wine that pairs with the campanelle, too! It took a while for the food to be prepped and come our way, but as I mentioned earlier, the kids ended up eating first, which was great! They enjoyed their pasta immensely, and we tasted it too, and it was great! The pasta was cooked well, and the sauces were thick and flavorful! They put a lot of care into the kids' menu, and we parents noticed that! The appetizer came next, and it was deliciously crispy and really had our appetites going for the pasta! When our campanelle came, we asked for extra cheese, of course, and then it was time to eat! The campanelle was cooked beautifully, slathered with spicy red tomato sauce, plus plenty of crumbled sausage and cheese! It was so good! It had a good kick from the spice that makes you want to keep biting into that bellflower-shaped pasta! Yum! When we were done, our waiter was in on the little birthday celebration, and God bless him for not wanting to embarrass my husband; he wisely didn't light the never-ending candle and just gave him a piece of tiramisu cake with "Happy Birthday" on it! It was such a nice experience for our family! The vibe was also very casual and a bit loud since we were seated out on the balcony, but we still had a conversation and had a great time. We loved watching the busyness on the sidewalk as we talked and ate. I really recommend this place!
