An authentic but unique Milano gourmet pizza, a special dough recipe, an innovative pizza-making process, high-quality Italian ingredients, a holistic approach to the food and beverage world, a focus on sustainable agriculture and farming, along with a deep love for Milano, where Andrea, Giacomo, and Luca grew up, and for San Diego, where they studied, worked and became who they are now. These are some of the concepts that make up the Ambrogio15 project. The idea was born in both Milano and San Diego, in the minds and the hearts of three young Italian guys who decided to leave the corporate world to begin a new adventure of passion, friendship, and a bit of foolishness.

    Visited for Thanksgiving, they had a special menu designed for the holiday. Everything was very good and service was great. The menu was an interesting take on traditional turkey dinner and was very tasty. The grilled filet mignon was really done nicely and the sauce was very good. The Gruyère scalloped potatoes were a surprise with a spicy kick. The crunchy pumpkin desert was a pleasant way to end the meal. Enjoyed Roy’s Hawaiian Martini which was like a low calorie pina colada but that soaked pineapple sliced had a kick! And the Argentinian Malbec was very smooth and a nice addition for dinner. Our server, Oscar, was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and the restaurant’s history. And a beautiful view of the San Diego bay at sunset.

    The location is amazing. The restaurant is a little dated. The service impeccable. The food was amazing- we ordered salads, appetizers, entrees, dessert, drinks. The only negative were the French fries- there’s nothing positive I can say about the fries. Aside from that, would highly recommend this restaurant for a nice dinner out!

    Food (kare kare, tocino, tuna crispy rice, wagyu rice, cesar salad, ube dessert) and drink (the malarky) was all great. Service (Lelani?) was excellent. And really, i expected it to be all great for the prices they charge. And they really delivered.
