Benvenuti Nella Mia Cucina, Belli De Nonna! Before we dive into the delicious feast prepared for you, let me give you a little taste of my vita. I was born in the heart of Rome, and I've been cooking up a storm my entire life! My cucina has always been the center of the universe for my 3 daughters, 5 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren, their friends, loved ones, and acquaintances – everyone was always Benvenuto!Now, we've brought that same love and flavor right here to San Diego. My beloved grandson, Niccolo', and his amore, Cesarina, are opening the doors of my Cucina with the same warm heart and passion.Wondering how I made it to 95? Well, it's simple: I ate everything that's served here and filled my life with amore! So, Benvenuti! Don't hesitate to indulge in "Scarpetta" - dip that bread into the sauce, just like my grandchildren used to do at the stove when they thought I wasn't looking.Here, Belli De Nonna, it’s all about food, family, and creating beautiful memories!

Roman trattorias are a timeless expression of simplicity. Immune to the lure of gastronomic experimentation and ego. In Rome, no chef can cook better than the mothers and grandmothers before them. Our goal is to merge the dogmatic approach of Roman cooking with the amazing abundance of ingredients available to us in San Diego. A True Roman Holiday In SD. A 4% surcharge is added to all guest checks.

    Shannon, our server, was both accommodating and a good server. Most of us ordered the happy hour food appetizers. Mussels, calamari, chicken potstickers yum! The food was brought out promptly and was warm and tasty. The servings were adequately portioned. I had one drink and a couple of the appetizers and was totally sated. The setting is idyllic. We sat outside which was shaded and comfortable. GREAT SAN DIEGO SPOT.

    I have dined here so many times, and each time, I am greeted with so much warmth and treated like royalty by the fabulous team. The service is impeccable and my favorite server, Soleil, remembers all me and my husband’s high maintenance dietary needs before I say anything! The food and cocktails are absolutely delicious and the ambiance is so cozy and funky. Definitely my favorite restaurant in San Diego! Look no further for excellent Italian cuisine.

    The food is amazing!!! I ordered Shrimp agua chile Queso fundido Hamburger which was supet juicy The “side of guacamole” is an experience, someone goes to your table and prepares the guacamole infront of your table. They have you try the guacamole and ask if you want to add anything else to it. I also order the frida rita margarita. I was surprised that the glasses were big and not stingy on the serving. Definitely coming back here.

    Pork belly inihaw and oyster sisig were on point, wonder if they have a Filipino chef 🤩. Service was impeccable. Our dessert Yodel was one of the best if not THE best. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
