Best Italian Restaurants in Mission Bay

Fabulous food! Loved the Scampi and the Affogato for dessert. Definitely will go again next time I visit San Diego

We were visiting from out of town. It was our last night in San Diego. My wife wanted Italian for dinner. I searched Open Table for Italian restaurants near our BnB that were highly rated but wouldn’t blow our budget. We opted for Enoteca Adriano. It didn’t disappoint. I had the Lobster ravioli and my wife had the cod. Both were excellent. What we really enjoyed were the cannolis. They reminded me of when I worked in NYC. the servers were friendly and attentive. They sat us on the patio which turned out to be a little cooler than I would have liked. However, overall, it was a most enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend it.

It takes a lot for me to be impressed on every level but I cannot say enough good things about Elvira. From the outstanding service to the knowledgeable staff to the quality of the food and drinks. Wow! We were started off by a great male (manager maybe?) who was super thorough with my food allergies and knew everything about the menu. I had: - the vegan caccio Pepe with gluten free pasta- WHICH IS HOMEMADE and so so good. The best gf pasta I’ve had in San Diego. - vegan mozzarella caprese salad was also so good for being vegan. Super fresh, flavorful tomatoes. - gluten free pizza: the crust is homemade and so realistic tasting/texture that it’s scary! Haha. I had vegan cheese also on that- you could hardly tell drinks: the Italian red wines were delicious. Also had a few drinks from the cocktail menu: the fig jam mezcal cocktail (What a COMBO! ♥️) as well as the white Negroni YUM

We enjoyed our Valentines Day dinner. I had red wine poached pears with burrata and arugula for my starter and the bolognese. Both were delicious!

The Galentines was so amazing! The food, drinks, and vendors love! Such a great vibe and the decor. Everything was so well thought out and perfect.
