- RReginaSan Diego •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoThe service the food is outstanding. And if you order a cocktail, you get it in the glasses that they’re supposed to be in not these little tiny things like at a lot of places that rip you off. We sat outside, so it was a bit noisy because of the Highway but love everything about this restaurant. Always have and always well and the food is outstanding. Everything is almost made there. They’ve got a pastry shaft. That really knows what she’s doing. They’re amazing. The best piccata I’ve had in a long long time. I recommend you go. They even have happy hour if you want that.
