Toscana Cafe and Wine BarTuscany in the Gas LampWe had a very nice meal with excellent service. Our server helped us with a wine selection that was similar to one that had just dropped off their list and provided great service getting our meal to us. We sat outside and enjoyed a warm evening and light traffic on fifth street. It might be a bit hectic out there if the street was crowded. Overall, a great experience.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMJust for two!With a five PM reservation on a Satuday night I expected to wait however we were immediately greated, seated. The only sour note for the evening was waiting for our server to finally get to our table. It was not busy but the staff seemed a bit limited and perhaps too busy. Regardless, our waiter 'Reggie' was fantastic! He was friendly, informative, funny and highly professional. He made excellent recommendations and made us feel very welcome, appreciated and comfortable. My wife had the spaghetti pomadora while I had the giant sea scallops. The bruschetta was fresh and tasty as was the tiramisu we had for desert. We will be back!!!!5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMStill a favorite !!!We live close to Toscana Cafe and enjoy dinner with friends there. All the servers are terrific. The food is varied and delicious from the shrimp appetizer to scallops with rissotto and the lasagna - wow ! Deserts are fanttastic too. I tried a new dish this time - chicken marsala - wonderful flavor and cooked just right. Some nights are so crowded it becomes a bit noisy for conversation, but on a Wed or Thursday it is quiet and a nice place to hang out.5/2/2013 12:00:00 AMSuperb Italian Rest. in GaslampThis charming restaurant is wonderful! My "star" ratings are well deserved. It is a great place to people watch, especially Sunday afternoon and evening as the Hard Rock Hotel (right across the street) has a weekly event that ends at 7 PM PT. Enjoy!4/28/2013 12:00:00 AMWe dined on the street inWe dined on the street in the Gaslamp District of San Diego on their terrace sidewalk area. Food was slow coming but worth the wait.
