    A totally wonderful experience from start to finish. The service was impeccable, friendly and fun. We had Burrata Salad, Pork Osso Bucco and a seafood special with squid ink Pasta. All dishes were perfection followed by the best Tiramisu ever. Go here, you’ll love it!

    Food was very good, really enjoyed the veal. But what put a damper on our experience they crammed a party of five next to us at table for four. The person at that table’s back was hitting our table. Not very enjoyable when you have people sitting on top you. The manager was told by the server that we were not happy about the sitting arraignment and he did not even come over to apologize, mainly because it was his ideal to cram those people into that space. I had to move our table to get my wife out of her seat for us to leave.

    We love the neighborhood restaurant vibe at Pomodoro. They provide healthy portions with great service. I recommend the Osso Buco, which had a ample portion of meat with great flavor.

    This is a charming spot for an Italian dinner. The ambiance is cozy yet lively, and the food is consistently very good. And the prices are what I would call reasonable these days. This is one of our top Italian restaurants in San Diego.

    4th time there now, food is always consistently excellent. Service was good not great this time, but it was a busy night. Sitting on the patio was fantastic, definitely the best Italian restaurant in the area.
