R&G Salumeria Wine Bar

Good food and wine, great service. Above average for Little Italy. We’ll be back!

From the moment we walked in, Giuseppe and Roberto made us feel welcomed and at home. Their suggestions for food and wine were on point and made the experience that much better. We will be back to see them again when we return to Little Italy.

I’ve been here four times and each time they exceed my expectations. The proprietors are incredibly friendly, the place is clean, the food is excellent, and the music is quiet and top-notch. Away from the cluster of people in Central Little Italy, this place, being on the outskirts, is a diamond in the rough!

Fantastic food and service! Not a big place and super cozy and cool!

Excellent, fresh food and outstanding service.

My friend and I wanted to try something new in little Italy
I found this place so very charming away from the main crowd.
Roberto the owner was fantastic!!, made us feel at home .
The wine selection is great , can’t wait to revisit.
R&G is definitely my Go to place .

fantastic experience, great service. waitress was amazing and the atmosphere both inside and outside felt like i was in europe.

some items can be on the pricey side but both taste and quantity size was great

Food excellent but a bit expensive.
Will return for happy hour.

Excellent food and service. There was live music which provided a very nice atmosphere. Will absolutely be back.

An amazing team with excellent food and wine. Love the service, live music and ambience. My favorite place in San Diego!

Always an amazing experience! I love going for dinner with the live music, it really makes for a great experience.

Don't think twice about eating here if you haven't already. I loved everything about this place. The service is fantastic - very warm, welcoming, professional, and fun. The food was notably delicious and perfectly prepared. I'm often disappointed by meatballs served at local Italian restaurants, but here, they could have been prepared by my late Grandmother. The pasta dish of the evening was phenomenal. I'm drooling thinking of the garlic bread - get it. I want to try everything and will be back!

What a great friendly place for lunch or dinner. The menu and wine list are outstanding. The entire team of Giuseppe, Roberto, Adriana and Ginevra make you feel at home. The live music is just an added treat that makes for a very special experience. I visit at least once every time I'm in San Diego.

Food was very good, and the staff was extraordinary... great energy. Initially, we found the lighting a little off-putting (stark LED), but do not let that deter you. Come in and you'll feel like you've been transported to Italy! And don't pass up the lemon tiramisu!

$16 Eggplant Parmigiana appetizer had one slice of eggplant. Pretty skimpy compared to other Little Italy restaurants.

Came for pasta while out of town. Several apps on the menu, server recommended meatballs and garlic bread. Meatballs were pretty good, garlic bread was average (more hard/crispy than I prefer). Entree/pasta selection changes daily, not listed on the menu. Traditional and green lasagna were available, or penne with scallops. I opted for the traditional. It was good, though I wouldn’t call it the best pasta I’ve ever had, as other reviews indicated. I got the cannoli to go, it was a bit too sweet for my liking. Service was okay. I dined solo and there was a boisterous party near me that occupied the server.

My fav local restaurant! Roberto is the best!!

Wow! A wonderful experience with amazing owners and staff! Food is delicious, drink options are divine, and the ambiance is very nice! My husband and I will be back very soon!

Food and drinks were delicious. The service was outstanding. I overheard the italian staff saying it was a family business. I’ll be sure to come back again for date night! 1 minute walk to the Music Box if you want to see a show. Thank You!

Wonderful- food, service, ambiance- this was a perfect birthday lunch and Joe (Givanno) was the epitome of a perfect host

My family enjoyed the dinner and the service this evening. We will return again.

Delicious food, great selection of wines, nice entertainment and wonderful staff. The only downside was that they didn’t have enough people for the high volume of customers on this night and we had to wait 30 minutes to order anything. One of our favorite date night spots and we will continue to come.

We loved the charm and politeness of the staff. The wine, salad, and bread was excellent. The flatbread was a bit lacking in flavor. Pink sauce was strange. Live music was enjoyable. Would come back again for salad and wine!

Food was excellent (meatballs, eggplant parm, artichokes), live music was awesome, definitely will be going back

I have been here a few times now and absolutely love it! The food is so delicious, the wine is amazing and and service can’t be beat! Everyone is so nice and friendly! Friday is my favorite day to go for the live music but we also had a blast on Saturday!

This is the absolute most lovely restaurant in little Italy! The warm service, delicious wine and amazing food, make this one of our absolute favorite new restaurants! You must try

Great food and service. Outside seating was great especially having the umbrellas.

R&G is a fantastic place! The menu is great and the food is definitely superior. The only thing that’s better than the incredible food is the service! Giuseppe, Roberto, Adriana and the rest of the staff are fun, courteous, very attentive, and very professional. I take everyone there - family, friends, business associates (and even my dog - very dog friendly) - I know they will be very pleased and impressed by the R&G team and the delicious food.

The owners make the place!
It's outside of the hustle and bustle of Little Italy (so nice). The food is made by one of the owners with a great wine list.
Great place . They have music too!

They made the top 25 Open Table reservation for a reason. Lower your exception regarding the ambiance and cherish a small menu and good wine from Sicily!

It was a great experience! Our staff went out to Little Italy and enjoyed the music, Food and Drinks. Great Customer Service!!!

Had a charcuterie plate one night then came back another and had Sea bass and Shrimp risotto all very good! We will be back..

The best part of this place is the neighborhood feel - it seemed like all locals and well-known customers on a fun Wednesday night! Charming service, delicious food, great live guitar...high recommend!

We met three adult family members here for lunch. They live in Carlsbad, and we were here on vacation from Long Beach. Because of the location and the positive reviews I’d read online, I chose R&G Salumeria. We were all very happy with the delicious food, the outstanding customer service, and the relaxed and easy atmosphere. Both Giuseppe and Roberto made us feel special and did not rush us at all. As a result, we were able to enjoy conversation and a wonderful meal together with family. It was like a little getaway to Sicily in downtown SD.

One of our favorite places in SD. Get there when Bobby is playing guitar and you won't want to leave.

Great service and great food.

Love love love

They were so friendly and accommodating of my food sensitivity! We got the chefs choice meat and cheese board and they took good care of the selections for us! It was so delicious, the bread was incredible. We really enjoyed this early evening stop for a couple of glasses of wine and the board.

This place has excellent specials of the day that you can count on being great. Been there many many times and never disappointed. Staff is very friendly and welcoming which is always a bonus in Little Italy

Excellent food and service. The sea bass was fabulous over risotto. Would definitely recommend. Sorry we did not take a picture. $6 parking across the street.

Amazing restaurant! Great atmosphere and the food was excellent- lasagna was 10/10. All of the staff were super friendly and welcoming! Will definitely be back!!
