Benvenuti Nella Mia Cucina, Belli De Nonna! Before we dive into the delicious feast prepared for you, let me give you a little taste of my vita. I was born in the heart of Rome, and I've been cooking up a storm my entire life! My cucina has always been the center of the universe for my 3 daughters, 5 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren, their friends, loved ones, and acquaintances – everyone was always Benvenuto!Now, we've brought that same love and flavor right here to San Diego. My beloved grandson, Niccolo', and his amore, Cesarina, are opening the doors of my Cucina with the same warm heart and passion.Wondering how I made it to 95? Well, it's simple: I ate everything that's served here and filled my life with amore! So, Benvenuti! Don't hesitate to indulge in "Scarpetta" - dip that bread into the sauce, just like my grandchildren used to do at the stove when they thought I wasn't looking.Here, Belli De Nonna, it’s all about food, family, and creating beautiful memories!

    We had a fantastic dinner from start to finish. The woman who greeted us was lovely, she sat us right away. Our waiter was amazing, offering recommendations for wine which was wonderful! (We like red but they all sounded amazing) We ordered eggplant pizza which was fabulous the crust was perfect and the toppings were so fresh! We also got an order of the meatballs, they were so tender and melt in your mouth! Finally we split the pork pasta which came with a generous portion on top and throughout the pasta. We can’t wait to return to this very tasty, traditional and fun restaurant!

    Was so accommodating to our larger group of 8 with kids. We originally sat at a high top and the host was able to easily move us to a lower table (we had a 2 year old). Great service and food. Please bring back the salmon burger! It was my fav and nothing compares! Thanks!
