    We really enjoyed Roman Wolves and will become frequent guests. Loved their fried stuffed zucchini blossoms meat balls, lamp lollipops and the Ragu.

    The food was delicious! The tomato and the bolognese ragu were both excellent and we would definitely return. We sat outside and it was off the Main Street in Little Italy. There were some issues with a vendor trying to sell candy and other issues. I would recommend sitting inside where the ambiance was much nicer!

    All was fine, there are better options in San Diego. There are some gimmicks that they seem to be prioritizing over creating an overall good experience.

    The service was great, but the food came out missing the alterations we asked for. The chicken Alfredo was still delicious nonetheless and their Gnocchi dish was superb. At the end of our dinner, they apologized for the mistakes with a delicious tiramisu. Overall the experience was great and would definitely return.

    We sat outside and were largely forgotten by our server, despite telling them that one of our party had to catch a flight. The food was very good, it just took way too long to get order placed or Get anything else we needed. Twice we had to go inside to find someone to help us.
