My first time to visit this Italian restaurant.Unfortunately I did not have a very good experience.When I ordered a... glass of red Sangiovese wine from Tuscany for $16 I was given the smallest pour ever.I asked the owner why the pour was so small. He told me it was a 4.3 ounce pour.I responded if this is the size of wine I get for $16 I would never return to this restaurant. The owner then came back with a bit more wine 🍷 for my glassThen I ordered a sausage and mushroom pizza. When the waiter handed me the Parmesan cheese in the shaker jar contained a live BUG inside 😷 🤮Obviously I complained about the live bug 🐜 and returned it.The pizza was not to my liking since it was very slim on every ingredient. Mostly bread.Finally I ordered the chocolate salami dessert and it was hard as a rock 🪨Maybe 🤔🤔🤔 it was FROZEN.🤷‍♀️😜🤔I don't know why this restaurant has a 4.7 rating.I was not at all impressed. No discount for the bug 🐛 being served to me.No apologyNothingThis dinner cost $60Definitely not worth it!read more

Ive had allot of pizza in my life but this, this was different. Maybe its the atmosphere or maybe it was mouthwatering... deliciousness of the pizza that got me. I mean wow! I had the pizza below and my wife had the Prosciutto w/ Barata cheese on a red sauce. Both were fantastic and best thing, plenty to take home and experience again. The young lady that guided us through our dinner, since it was our first visit, was really nice and quite helpful. As a matter of fact she recommended my pizza and NAILED the recommendation! Im still living in the blissful aftermath of this pizza experience. Totally a 5 star restaurant and highly recommended for a first time visit or just to remind you to go back and experience it again. Love that PB vibe.read more

We were looking for a nice night out with great food for our last night in San Diego. We made a reservation for 2,... showed up, and were seated outdoors. (We were not asked for preference of indoors/outdoors despite it being a chilly night that we clearly weren’t dressed for.) After nobody came to acknowledge our table for a while, we grew suspicious, but figured it was just a slow start. A server finally came to take our order, but it was only after he came back with our drinks and put in our order that he informed us that the pizza might be a bit slow because there was a wedding(!?) and another large party ahead of us. We felt that was pretty strange since at NO POINT when we made our reservation earlier that day, called on our way, or arrived at the restaurant to be seated was it mentioned that they were over capacity, but figured it was pizza - how long could it take? Well, we sat for 30 minutes after ordering without being checked on or acknowledged by our server. At that point, as I’m sure we were looking visibly annoyed, our server came over and gave us a free meat and cheese platter. I will admit this temporarily perked us up, but that shine faded fast when we found ourselves waiting another half hour for the pizza we ordered. Yes, that’s right - over an hour for pizza that probably stays in the oven for 5 minutes, as a generous calculation. The pizza was tasty, but far from the best I’ve had, and the wait was inexcusable. When we finally got the bill, we had very little apology for the horrendous service - just excuses about how their oven only allows for a small number of pizzas at a time. It was clear, however, that the server was more interested in trying to be friendly to us while we had the bill in hand than he had been for the rest of the night when we were generally ignored, as he seemed fearful his tip would be affected. I can’t help but feel like this establishment cares about little more than their bottom line, as the least they could have done was warn us in advance that they wouldn’t be able to provide us with efficient service so that we could decide for ourselves whether we wanted to wait, or go elsewhere - it’s not like they didn’t have multiple opportunities before putting in our order and serving our drinks. As it stands, I will return to San Diego for sure, but never to this establishment.read more

Wow, I’m not sure I can accolade this restaurant in the way it deserves to be! From start to finish, our experience was... delightful. The service was great; our waitress was personable and kind and made good recommendations. The pizza was the best I’ve ever had. I’m not a connoisseur of fine pizzas by any means, but this was by far the highest quality pizza I’ve encountered. The meats, sauces, veggies, and cheeses are all of finest quality; next time we go back I look forward to taking advantage of their “build your own” meat and cheese board to try more of the meats and cheeses. They had a great wine list with plenty of selections to choose from. Lastly, I cannot recommend the tiramisu enough. Get some espresso for a nice finish or with the tiramisu. We look forward to coming back soon!read more

The 2 pizzas taste & quality were 5/5 = A, only bad & sad were: 1) NO WANTED & PAID olives found on our 2nd pizza, 2) the to-go order was done 15 MINUTES late, plus 3) the gentleman to-go server FORGOT to hand me our $20. fish app & I had to remind him to give it to me before I walked-out..,2 stacked pizza boxes given to me only & told I could leave…NOPE !

We chose a white pizza this time, because I'm craving artichoke pizza. We found this one on the menu and I loved it. The crust is super thin and flaky. The flavor is strong but not overwhelming. We also loved the Sicilian style salad, very very refreshing for a appetizer before the entree. The wine choices are great too, I enjoyed my Spit! Nice brunch for our Pi Day.read more

San Diego is known for its pizza and this is why! Super easy and fast online ordering and quick pick up during covid... too. The pizza was incredibly tasty and be sure to get some of the spicy olive oil on the side. The PERFECT blast of flavor to dip the stone fired crust into. They have so many ways to customize each pizza too even with vegan cheese! The intense flavor of that parmigiano reggiano just changed the way I think of cheese forever!read more

We ordered the to-go Christmas menu and can't recommend it enough! Lots of delicious food really made it feel like a... night out even though we were at home. We've ordered several other "upscale" to-go dinners and this one was the easiest to plate/eat. We kept the pizza in the oven on warm while we enjoyed our cheese plate and apps. The desert with espresso poured over the top was awesome too and of course they picked a great bottle of wine to pair. Thank you to the staff for making our Christmas special.read more

An amazing higher-end pizza spot off Turquoise. Their food reeks of quality. The pizza sauce is savory and memorable,... as is the basil and mozzarella! Their salads are also super good. Service is insane here as well. The staff is very helpful and sweet. This is a great spot for a date or a small party. Can’t recommend Ambrogio15 enough!read more

Hands down the worst pizza I've ever had. I rarely leave restaurant reviews, but I feel so ripped off by this... restaurant for two absolutely tasteless pizzas. Three of us ate these horrible smears of red stuff on a soggy cracker and all of us rated them the worst pizzas ever. Makes me think the positive reviews were made up.read more

My partner has Celiac and we are always on the search for delicious gluten free pizza we can both enjoy. We were happy... to find this little gem!

So hands down I'd say this is in my top 5 of Italian eats! The food here is handcrafted and incredible. The patio is a... lovely spot on a warm night. Try sauces and pastas you'll crave for weeks. This place is worth the drive and wonderful for families, business, or groups.read more

This place is very close to 5 star for me. First place in San Diego that we have tried that lived up to the hype. Very... good service, drinks and food. Completely reasonable prices.

This is a really swell place. Initially, when I wanted to go they ran out of marinara which bummed me out...BUT it was... worth the wait! Julie works the kitchen and you can tell she put her heart into her food. Everything is done with so much care and attention that is not seen often. We were thrilled with our two pasta dishes, a roasted veggie salad, and fries. It is a small place with one table for a friendly vibe. I'm TOTALLY not used to that because in LA who socializes anymore?!?!? I'm kidding but it's true! However, we sat there with several people from different backgrounds and with one beautiful goal and that's to keep animals safe. There was a great mother and son duo there and I couldn't pass up taking a photo of his tattoo.read more

I don't go to Beretta nearly as often as I should, and I need to remedy this. It can get crowded for brunch, but it's... always worth the wait. I sat outside on my most recent trip, and it was really fun to people watch (there are heat lamps to fight the chill).read more

Was able to enjoy this pizza again and once again so very much impressed. All the options are amazing and... delicious.This pizza made me feel like I was back living in Bellagio on Lake Como. The pizza is excellent and very authentic. Staff at the restaurant was cheerful, knowledgeable and working hard to adhere to all the COVID19 restrictions. We had the pizza to go, but the ambiance of the dining in was great. I am excited to go back again for another amazing experience. Most of the staff was Italian speaking which I loved to see.read more

This is a very special place for us. I spent 5 months in Italy and am in a forever search of authentic Italian pizza... and experience. Not only is the staff amazing but the food is so delicious! All of the pizza's have their only special twist and the ingredients are so thoughtful and to die for every time. It is definitely worth dining in for the experience and atmosphere, they even have an outdoor patio! We LOVE this place and bring all of our visitors here!read more

Classy establishment. A bit pricey, but you definitely don’t feel ripped off. Some people say this is the best pizza... in San Diego, I wouldn’t go that far, but it definitely feels authentic to Italy. Crust is kind of thin, little amount of cheese, but the sauce is fairly sweet which is nice. Good wine selection and desserts too. Only downside was that it was a little loud and the food took a little while to come out. Still a very classy date night overall though.read more

I have discovered my favorite pizza here in San Diego! Finally, an authentic and ever so fresh array of flavor! Besides... the hand-selected wine, the salamino piccante pizza was exquisite with the generous sauce I could actually taste, and the fresh rosemary sprigs, and spicy salami instead of pepperoni which was a perfect blend! Bravo Jacques on your perfect suggestion for my experience!read more

The food was OUTSTANDING and I am in Italy all the time. Best pizza I’ve ever had in the USA and rivals the best I’ve... had in Italy. All of their other foods are exceptional and true Italian ingredients. The burrata is simply amazing. You must try it! The cheese and meats unbelievable! So is the bread! All prepared in house. The wine list is SPECTACULAR! small vineyard wines of exceptional quality you cannot get or buy anywhere! They found an amazing importer who only brings in these small boutique wines that are so delicious and a great value! Most Italian wine imported to the US are not good but these will make you a convert to loving Italian wine and change your perception of Italian wine forever! you must try this place. I’d rate it a 10 if I couldread more

Great service and wine selection. Their Chardonnay was smooth and mild, (which I love). The pizza is delicious, I had... the marhinara, and added the vegan mozzarella. Their orange fennel salad was delicious as well! I think they prefer if you reserve a table, but my group of 4 went in on an evening during a weekday with no reservation and had no qualms. The waiter/staff know their food well, and it is pretty authentic Italian!read more
