    Jose F.

    The best Pizza on San Diego hands down on this pizza, it taste so good and the crew members very friendly y have a meeting and i get off at 8:30 and i know they close at 9, so they stop taking phone orders around 8:20 and i call them at 7 pm at i place my order with Jose and i specifically that i want my order done around 8:30 so i can pick em up at 8:45, well the did it that way when i arrive i was expecting that mi pizza was cold and for my surprise they todo me we still working on your order i you can please give us 5 more min and we have it ready, i realized that my pizzas was going to be super fresh, and no doubt my 5 pizzas was hot and delicious thanks to the crew member of this night and i will definitely will came back and super recommend this place

    Zappy Pizza, I wish you had more than just three locations in San Diego. I am grateful that this location is located in close proximity to my parent's and in-laws' houses. I don't know how Zappy's is able to sell $5 one topping pizzas that don't taste like Little Ceasar's or what you'd expect a $5 pizza to taste like. In Zappy's case, you truly get your money's worth. The San Ysidro Zappy Pizza is located in the heart of San Ysidro behind a Chase Bank and adjacent to a super market. It is a walk up, order, and carry out restaurant. There isn't a seating area to enjoy their delicious pies. I recommend calling in advance and then picking up your pizzas. I called at 3:30pm, informed the kind gentlemen that I was picking up my two pizzas at 5pm, and they were ready for pick up even though I was 10 minutes late. As you enter the restaurant, Zappy's has a large menu board that sells not only pizzas, but also chicken wings and breadsticks. Sorry Little Ceasar's, Zappy's got you beat for value for your money. I don't know about everyone else, but when I buy a $5 Little Ceasar's Pizza, it tastes like a $5 pizza. If you don't finish Little Ceasar's the day you order it, forget about it. Zappy's is not Little Ceasar's. The price is the same, but the Zappy's quality is so much better. Zappy's is fresher, the pizza is more hearty, and to me, it's a tastier pizza. The $5 pricing is only for 1-topping pizzas. They also sell specialty pizzas, but at a higher price. I ordered two pepperoni pizzas, which were cheesy, abundantly layered with pepperoni, and were significant sized pizzas for $5. These pizzas were well received at my family party. With such a glowing review, you're probably wondering why the 1 star deduction. It's simple folks. For such a great quality pizza at the inexpensive price of $5, there should be a plethora of Zappy's, so that more San Diegans can enjoy a deliciously, cheap pizza. Sorry, Little Ceasar's. If Zappy's does pizza this good, I'll definitely be back to try their chicken wings.

    Nice people, decently priced, taste was just basic, and crust was thick. Not bad but nothing special either.

We ordered the calamari fritti ($16.50), spaghetti allo scoglio ($25.50), fettuccine gamberi e pancetta ($27.50), and gnocchi alla salsiccia ($23.50). The spaghetti allo scoglio was definitely the standout for me. The seafood was super fresh and cooked perfectly, and I loved how the marinara sauce complemented the natural flavors of the seafood without overpowering them. The pasta was also cooked al dente. The calamari fritti was a great appetizer as well. The calamari had the perfect balance of crispy on the outside and tender and chewy on the inside. The fried pickled jalapeños were a really nice touch, although I wasn't a huge fan of the tomato dipping sauce. The calamari was still delicious without it though. The restaurant has rustic-chic decor and a really nice atmosphere, making it a great option for a date night or a nicer dinner. Service was friendly as well! Our server checked in regularly and made some light conversation with us. There is both street and lot parking available, although it can get pretty busy at night. They also offer happy hour from 4-6pm on weekdays.

It was a Friday evening and every restaurant on the street was full and vibrant. You could Yelp these places all day long and it would be hard to choose. There's so many great restaurants around Little Italy. Mimmo's reached out and called us in. There were pretty white tablecloths, the hostess was smiling ready to answer any questions and of course, the menu looked wonderful. Voilà! We'd found our spot. Our waiter was so personable and had all the answers to our inquiries. He suggested items and even answered honestly when needed. I got a Le Pécora Nera Sangria (fizzy blackberry with lemon). Tasty, but too many blackberry seeds coming up the straw. I'd get another one next time. For the appetizers: RISOTTO ARANCINI (a MUST get) - these were absolutely delicious. Four good size bread crumbed fried balls of risotto sitting in the restaurant's own tomato gravy. HOMEMADE FOCACCIA WITH DIPPING OIL (yes, that's the official name) - this is a basket of super soft, warm focaccia bread for a great price. I would get it no matter what main course you're getting! It soaks up every sauce and it's just delicious. MAIN: BAKED LASAGNA (meat) - with the two appetizers this is the perfect size for both of us. No need to get one per person! It was absolutely wonderful. I would get it again. All in all, I'd definitely go back. The food was absolutely delicious and flavorful and the employees we came in contact with were great as well. We didn't want to sit at a table right next to the hundreds of people walking by, I don't like that, but there are plenty other options one row in or inside the restaurant. A solid recommendation on my part.

We decided to do inside dining as it was starting to get chilly outside. We were immediately seated by a wonderful hostess, and that made a positive impression upon us. The whole hostess staff had great smiles on their faces and they were very welcoming. After about two minutes of sitting down, our server came to ask us if we needed time to look over the menu. We said yes but that we wanted a Foccacia Bread table starter. She smiled and immediately went to put the order in. A few few minutes later she came back and we ordered our drinks for dinner: Raspberry Italian Soda, Orange Crush with Fresh Cream on top, and a non-alcoholic spritz. After we got our drinks and sip on them, it took us a bit of time to decide what we wanted. We all know that the burger here is fantastic! However, this evening, we decided to try new things. We ordered: Pappardelle Bolognese with Added Meatballs, Pappardelle Bolognese as it is normally prepared, and a Caesar salad with shrimp added. Our food was out within about 10 to 15 minutes and everything was prepared perfectly. I have to say that we really enjoyed dining in this location and we may need to come back here more instead of traveling to the Del Mar location sometimes. Our server was super customer service oriented and we appreciated her. She went above and beyond to get the orange crush drink to be unique like an Italian soda for my daughter. We were super stuffed and could not do dessert, but we did promise to come back to enjoy the lava cake at a future time. Overall, this was an excellent visit and we appreciate the staff in the great energy that we received at this location. I do highly recommend it.
