Best Casual Restaurants in Santee

Great place for dinner and service is was really impressive. We had mussels and fries and two appetizers which were yummy!

We had a great meal. Two of us had the salmon and loved it. I had the meat raviolis and they were excellent. The fourth member of our group had the seafood raviolis and said they were great. The service was very good considering the restaurant was getting slammed on a Saturday night. We will definitely go back.

Fantastic Breakfast at Madi Had an incredible breakfast at Madi! The food was delicious, the atmosphere warm and inviting, and the service exceptional. Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of, making it a truly enjoyable experience. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back!

We came in last night and had a wonderful experience. Our server was Alessandra and she was just amazing. First off the place is so cute & trendy, I love what they did with the space. We started our meal with the fritto misto (mixed calamari & veggies), fungo ripieno (mushroom w artichoke, red sauce & polenta) which was my personal favorite (the polenta was to die for) and the crispy burrata. We ate everything and left no crumbs ! Then we went on to our main courses. We ordered the fettuccine tartufo (mushroom & truffle - our tables favorite), spicy vodka pasta, ragu Della Nonna (red sauce with meat), and the parmigiana Milanese (eggplant Parmesan). Everything was delicious. The pasta was cooked perfect & al dente, we ate what we could & took the rest home! Then came dessert. It was my father’s birthday and they offered us a dessert of our choice, Alessandra recommended the fresh made table side tiramisu -good choice. Flavors were so well balanced. We also ordered the cannoli and was one of my favorite cannolis ever! Needless to say we will be coming back again! Thank you for the great dinner.

Great lunch w a friend that I haven’t seen in years! We were allowed a leisurely unhurried delicious lunch.
