This is a good restaurant with a good but limited options. Every one from the General Manager greeting us, the servers being avaliable for request without hovering, timely preparation of the food, was professional and accommodating. Over all I would recommend this restaurant if you were in the area

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Hidden Gem in San Diego – Theresa’s Italian Steakhouse Tucked away on the breathtaking 18-acre Jerusalem Stone adorned Legacy Center campus, Theresa’s Italian Steakhouse is easily one of San Diego’s best-kept secrets. From the moment you arrive, the ambiance is both peaceful and elegant—something you just don’t find every day. The food? Five-star quality. Every dish we’ve tried has been absolutely phenomenal—expertly prepared, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. And here’s the kicker: the prices are more like three stars. You’d expect to pay much more for food this good, which makes every visit feel like a win. The service is equally impressive. Jerry and his staff is warm, attentive, and genuinely cares about your dining experience. Whether you’re stopping in for a casual dinner or celebrating something special, the team makes you feel right at home. We love this place and keep coming back. If you’re looking for incredible food, fair prices, and a setting that feels both intimate and inspiring, Theresa’s Italian Steakhouse is a must.

The food was amazing, especially the homemade pasta. The lighting was a little bright could have been dimmed a bit for better atmosphere. Staff was very friendly. Great price hidden gem!

Food was fai at best Panazella salad was all croutons for some reason. I was told that how it’s made. Spagetti and meat balls plate had been sitting under heat lamp and dry - had to ask for extra sauce. Not a great experience
