    Server was excellent, and the overall speed was great. Food was good, but not great especially at the prices. Items are very expensive for the quality and what you get.

    Honestly heard great things about the North County location, happened to be in Fashion Valley so we gave it a shot. Ordered Cacio e Pepe Arancini, Tuscan Salad, Hot Honey Pizza and Squid Ink pasta Meal started off great, both the arancinis and salad were fantastic. Problem started when we got the pasta and pizza. Pasta first, way too soupy. It was served in a bowl, half full with a jarring sweetness and spiciness to it, almost felt like I was eating something with Korean pepper paste. Ingredients seemed fresh, but I couldn't get the taste of gochujang or ketchup out of my mind. Squid ink pasta was generic, not house made, cooked uneven. Pizza was the worst pizza I've ever had at a proper italian restaurant. Way too doughy, from looking at it even before eating. Crust felt like I was chewing into focaccia that was left out for a while. Pizza fell apart immediately upon biting and toppings were cold. Also wayyy too much honey, and under the toppings when it should be drizzled over. Tomato sauce was also very ketchup-esque. I normally don't write critical reviews like this but this was single handedly the worst Italian restaurant experience I've had.

    The complimentary bread served had mold and they bought second serving that had mold too. They denied both the times. Have been to Delmar location and they have exceptional service.

    Service was a bit slow, wine brought out and opened without wine glasses, food being served and dropped hard onto the table (as if it was thrown at us- i know that wasn't the intention) and dessert brought out without spoons... we were all a little disappointed last night.
