   Amazing!!!! The vegan options are delicious. The hostess gave us options of sitting inside, outside, or at the bar. We choose outside under the heaters and it was perfect. Our waitress gave all of her recommendations and spent time explaining both the vegan and regular menu. We chose her recs and they did not disappoint! Perfect date night spot. Delicious food and wine. We will definitely be back!

   The gluten free pasta was over cooked, there was not enough sauce and the sausage pasta dish was boring, not worth $22. Unfortunately, won’t be going back.

   Great spot for a date night. The food was amazing and it was the best focaccia I’ve had in San Diego. My only qualm was that we made a reservation for inside but after waiting a few minutes after our reservation, we were told and outside table was open so they seated us there. Outside was nice but not what we were hoping for and asked to sit at the bar since we saw a few open seats. Very cozy bar to sit and eat at with nice foot rests so your feet aren’t dangling. It wasn’t clear who we should order from because they were very busy running around the bar making drinks but they did a great job taking care of us. Super nice people working and amazing Italian food. Pasta Al forno was to die for and if your aren’t vegan, highly suggest getting the gnocchi and swap for real sausage and cheese

   Every time I’m in town I book a table here! Working my way through the menu and have not had anything miss, but I always end with the affogato dessert, because it’s amazing.

   First time eating here and it lived up to its reputation. Excellent pastas made in an authentic Calabrian style. They also were great with our toddler, bringing him a bowl of pasta and a meatball within minutes of our arrival so the adults could enjoy a glass of wine while he ate.

   Delicious food, a clean and classic atmosphere, good service and an amazing vegan menu . We started our dinner off with refreshing drinks and the savory Bruschetta de Sud and Fritto Italiano. The Sicilian rice balls were my favorite appetizer. For our entrees we got the refreshing Linguine al Verde and the hearty Lasagna. They were both absolutely delicious but the Lasagna was our favorite dish. We were lucky we had made a reservation because they were turning folks away at the door without one. We can see why the reservation list was so full. 10/10. Would highly recommend.

    There was only one set of utensils on the table after they brought appetizers and left. After long waiting and asking for more, the waiter brought plates and folks without napkins. After long waiting, someone came and we got to ask for napkins. He brought the bread in a brown bag after we finished meals - we think he heard us talking about why this Italian restaurant does not offer bread.

    My friend and I visited Civico 1845 and were very impressed with the quality of food, both in taste and amount. The amount of vegan options on the menu (plus a few vegan desserts) was very appreciated and a leading reason why we chose this restaurant over others. We were served by Aria and Hugo and they were both amazing and incredibly attentive - I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. If I lived in San Diego I’d likely return often!

    The food was an amazing experience. The only issue was the waiter made my girlfriend uncomfortable. He wouldn't stop staring her and wouldn't acknowledge me either. It got to the point where my gf had to avoid the waiter from how uncomfortable the experience was. He would not stop looking at her He was serving last night 1/1, long brown hair light skin.

    Some food came out cold. Table outside was crazy tilted. Couldn’t keep our glasses on table. They kept sliding off. They were rushing us out because they had overbooked on reservations. This even tho they seated us late and didn’t bring us a bottle of wine for a hot minute.

    Food was delicious and service was great. Started with a warm bag of bread for the table and fried zucchini and fried calamary appetizers, all of which was tasty. The branzino and the salmon were fantastic for the main course. Would definitely come back.

    I would recommend choosing another restaurant in Little Italy with a better ambiance. Though our server was lovely, we had an issue with the manger who was INCREDIBLY rude. The music was so loud we truly could not hear each other speak next to each other. There are so many restaurants to choose from- do yourself a favor and avoid this one!

    Amazing service. Vegan fare was absolutely delicious, as was non-Vegan fare! It was a place both my wife and I could eat at together without any limitations for either of us! Everything, including the bread, was fantastic. The only thing we thought could be changed was their super bright light shining in our eyes at the table we happened to get assigned to on the patio that night. There are other options out there without the spotlight, so just ask for a different table (we didn't, but next time we will). And there will be a next time!!! Overall, so super happy with the place!

    Great food and good atmosphere, although it is on the loud side. Have been there multiple times and always have great food and good service. The service this time was not great. Our server was not attentive and had to be traced down by others on multiple occasions. However, this is the first time I've experienced not great service. Would definitely recommend the restaurant.

    Vegan entrees and desserts as well as gluten free options are purposefully made and well thought through. Other restaurants "make accommodations" for food preferences by altering dishes, omitting ingredients etc. Civico's offerings are designed to address preferences from the start. We had a party of consisting of vegans, GF and omnivores and everyone was pleased with thier meals. The service, while friendly, could have been a bit more attentive and polished.

    Nice atmosphere, cozy and casual. Please filled up during the dinner hour, so recommend making a reservation. Food was delicious, authentic, full of flavor and not too heavy. The olive oil pesto dip with the bread was also enjoyable. This is a great place to visit for dinner if you are in Little Italy.

    First time here. Food was sub par. Took too long for waiter to attend to us (10+min). Dipping sauce for bread tasted horrible. Main course was fair but flavor profile for sauce was off. Outside tables are not sturdy and packed next to each other. Guests seated next to us tipped over their wine and spilled on us. To top it off there were cockroaches by fountain. Will not return.

    I would not recommend. The food is nothing special / average. I booked a table for 3 indoor but they gave it to people in front of us who did not have a reservation… so we ended up on a table for 2 outside, in the cold, with a very loud singer. We have a 3 years old, we need space, warm, and less loud. They recognized that they messed up. It’s really unacceptable.
