The gluten free crust was really good! Service definitely stole the show, Giacomo was charming and kind. The rest of the staff were also attentive to guests needs regardless of if it was their table or not. Really makes a difference in making it a great experience. Would definitely come back.
Came here for dinner with friends and it was delicious! Tiramisu was amazing. The crust was good and it’s made on a pizza oven so. Some friends ordered their pasta and said it was good; there’s egg pasta options too.
Just when we thought there wasn’t any Parmesan cheese, a lady came with the biggest bowl with ever seen and served us! They have gluten free options (both pasta and pizza) and even dairy free/vegan cheese options for pizza- which is a great option for lactose intolerant people.
Only complaint is that they only had like one bathroom and it took forever for us to use it.
Wow. Just wow. We just had an absolutely elite meal here. It's an unassuming spot, with a casual but cozy ambiance. Great for a date, celebration, or really any time you want a delicious plate of pasta.
If they have the mushroom flan, start with that. It was savory, and flavorful. We had the gluten free version, but I'm sure the normal is excellent as well.
I was impressed with the range of gluten free options, which is always appreciated for me (celiac). My partner had the crab and shrimp cream sauce with lemon linguini pasta, and she raved about it. I had the same linguini, but with the sausage saffron sauce, and loved it.
The dessert menu had a number of decadent sounding options, we settled for thr ugly chocolate cake and the GF tiaramisu. The tiaramisu was so creamy it was almost a pudding - tasty, and melt in your mouth smooth. The ugly chocolate cake (that's what they call it) was lighter than I expected, rich, but kinda airy like a soufflé.
Anyway, I can't say enough about this spot. It's a gem. If you want good pasta, this place delivers in spades.
TLDR: celiac friendly
My celiac friend and I stopped by to try out their gluten free flatbread and she took half of hers to go which is highly uncommon. Most gf breads are like cardboard or rubbery but this flatbread tasted just like gluten bread! She didn't get sick so there was definitely no gluten in it but whatever it was, it was amazing!
I ordered gluten full tortellini which looked and tasted like it was made in house and I was completely satisfied with my meal. We stopped by just as happy hour was ending and our waiter was quick to help us get some happy hour wine orders in before it was too late.
The bathroom... it an experience. Like many cities, some locations work within their confines and RoVino got very clever. The restroom is a short walk outside the restaurant which at first seems so strange because they have someone walk you down to it. At the end of the block, tucked away you'll find a very clean little walk to a door with their logo. Type in the code and you enter a 1 stall restroom. It was so random but well done, I'll be talking about that little experience for a while.
Had a wonderful dinner here this evening. I am gluten free and ordered the gnocchi and my husband had the lamb tagliatelle pasta. Great portion sizes. We ordered a bottle of the Super Tuscan which is luscious! We took what was left with us. We shared the misto salad which they graciously split for us. Our service and food were wonderful. We have been to Italy and this is top notch.
Folks Italy is Italy-it’s the terroir of there and cannot be matched but this came pretty darn close! Would defiantly eat here again.
We came on a rainy day for lunch and received phenomenal service. The hostess ensured we were seated in a spot with plenty of space for our strollers. The owner stopped by and chatted and provided recommendations. They allowed my four year old to order a simple pasta dish from off the menu. The complimentary bread was warm and fragrant. We enjoyed the fresh caprese appetizer and all of our pastas exceeded expectations. My husband loved his gluten free gnocchi dish. Eating here was truly a highlight of our sightseeing around little Italy.
I love this place! The pizza is soo good and service is excellent. They have the best gluten free pizza options. Great brunch menu as well. Definitely recommend this place.
I ordered about 25 pizzas for a company lunch and worked with Mona. She was great! Our order was correct, delivery was on time, and none of the pies were burnt or lacking in toppings. I also love that they offer GF pizza since we have one employee with a gluten allergy. We will be ordering again!
Outstanding food and able (and very willing) to accommodate gluten-free needs. Our waiter was friendly, knowledgeable, and had fun interacting with our little 9-month-old grandson. Beautifully decorated - especially for the Christmas holidays.
Great meal! The octopus starter and the lobster bisque were both amazing. Plenty of accommodations for dietary restrictions, and you can look online for a full gluten-free menu. They offer the classic Italian pasta wheel, but unfortunately it wasn’t tableside so we didn’t get to see them make it. Friendly service and a warm atmosphere, and lots of options to choose from.
Friendly and helpful server, easy place to dine with our kids, very helpful with figuring out gluten free food for the celiacs in our family, we’d definitely come back. Burrata, seafood pasta, and truffle fries all great
We had a very positive experience at Leucadia Pizzeria. The service and food were excellent. I like the easy-going atmosphere here. The decor is fun and casual. They have a variety of pizzas and salads. We have also tried the chicken wings and the raspberry cheesecake. The sauces are unique and delicious. It is one our favorite places in the area. They have gluten free crust and it is fantastic. That is not always the case.
North Italia in One Paseo is my new favorite Italian food restaurant! Every single team member we encountered was extremely friendly, professional, and helpful.
The kitchen & bar outdid themselves everybody enjoyed their dishes and drinks from the Brussels sprouts to the fried zuchinni chips, bread, pastas, pizzas, and salads. I’m gluten free and was so happy to see such an accommodating menu. I ordered the pesto chicken pasta and loved every bite!
We had a big party of twelve and a late reservation, because our previous dinner reservations fell through. Honestly, I’m so happy they did. Despite our not-so-simple request for a Saturday night reservation at a busy location, they happily welcomed us in and took such good care of us!
Thank you Nicole, Garrett, and all staff!
I read the reviews prior to going in tonight and the reviews almost deterred me from going in.
I have nostalgia coming to Filippis as a kid playing on various sports teams. For some reason the sports awards would always take place at Flippis and the team would enjoy a large shared meal. Their pizza sauce always stood out to me.
Fast forward to my adult years, there’s so many pizza places, especially in Pacific Beach that I had written off Filippis as a thing of the past.
Was I wrong. I was solo parenting tonight and took my two toddles here for dinner.
They immediately gave my girls pizza dough to play with. This kept them busy until the food came out. The girls loved their pizza and I ordered their gluten free pizza. Honestly, it was the best gluten free crust and pizza I ever had. Their pizza sauce was just how I remembered it. Their cheese blanked over the toppings. It was delightful. It was filling and it didnt feel gluttonous.
The server at the end gave my girls complimentary ice cream with a small side note to me asking for permission.
The server was kind and patient with my girls. I’ve lived in PB the past 10 years and this should have been my go-to all along.

Our waiter Luca, didn't give us the full experience. Sadly I heard another waitress doing her job with such class and enthusiasm. No specials were said, the other waitress greeted her table with the specials. Apparently we weren't special. My husband's meal was lacking flavor and chicken. 3 small bits of chicken with his penne pasta. My daughters Alfredo, sauce was bland and this Mama never adds salt to ANYTHING, but this NEEDED it. It was great after I added some flavor. My tortellini fungi was amazing. My son's pizza and my mother gluten free pizza(yes they have gluten free pasta and pizza)was tasty. Never did we just get drink refills, we had to ask. Sadly I wished our waiter made our first experience here a nicer one. Don't think hubby will want to come back. 😢
Excellent pasta, homemade as well! I'm from the land of Italians, this is 100% a hidden gem.
The gluten free pasta was also delicious. It was much fresher than any other gf pasta I've tried. My girl is allergic so we try it all.

The staff was busting their butts to make sure everyone was taken care and was so kind! The gluten free pasta with funghi sauce was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere was very friendly! Highly recommend!
We were blown away by the food! My daughter is Celiac so finding a restaurant that is safe is really a challenge, forget about it being fine dining. The staff was knowledgeable and caring about our concerns, plus there were so many options my daughter could safely choose from! We started with the Zucca (a delicious butternut squash salad) and finished with the Ditalini, a seafood-packed broth with HOMEMADE gluten-free pasta that is cooked separately, making it safe for celiacs. We were truly delighted by our experience at Cori and will definitely be back soon! Thank you for taking food allergies so seriously!
After many years I keep coming to Piacere Mio because they still have a really amazing customer service, I can eat delicious gluten free food, and now they have a Caprese Al Cioccolato desert (gluten free) that is delicious and guilt free.
All the staff is amazing, Paolo and Carol are outstanding with their customer service skills, very social and friendly.
I've never had less than a great experience with Best Pizza. The pizza is consistently really good, the happy hour is solid, and the gluten free crust is better than most other spots
We ordered pick up. The gluten free crust white pizza with sausage was yummy. The pepperoni pizza was yums also. Good balance of herbs spices cheese and meat. Will Oder from here again.
We just had breakfast here. Searched on line for a gluten free restaurant and this was recommended. Our waitress Alex’s service was very good and she made sure the order was gluten free for a celiac and the food was very good. The gluten food was also very good. Great little restaurant.
We’ve been coming here a couple times a year and it really become a place for 20 year olds. It is beautiful inside but so loud you have to scream to be heard. It’s basically an entire bar for a very young crowd. Don’t expect a nice quiet dinner. The starters are small. The lobster risotto was bland (we’ve had much better) and the cioppino was light on the seafood and also bland. The gluten free chocolate cake was so small all 4 of us burst out laughing when it came. The drinks were excellent. If we ever come back we will try sitting outside next to the street.

We made a last minute large party reservation for a group of us in San Diego for a conference. The host Alvin was absolutely delightful and made sure to check on us while we were eating, and our waitress Ashley made excellent recommendations. The pasta was AMAZING! We had a number of dietary restrictions in the group including gluten free and everyone was happy. We sat outside which was less loud than inside and we were very comfortable. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant and come back!
The food is incredible and so fresh! We had the frutti Di mare gnocchi, pizza and salads. They offer vegan and gluten-free options - and it was the best vegan gluten-free pizza of my life!
Exquisite Italian food they can make any of their pastas gluten free. Friendly servers but they forgot to put extra meat on our pasta and they forgot the dessert. But still it's a five star place.
Legit new york style pizzeria in the heart of Little Italy San Diego.
Full meal for under $12. THANK YOU!!!
Lots of seating inside and out.
I dream of their new Hot Honey Ricotta Pie. Their meat pizzas and even their vegan and gluten free pizza are so yummy!!!
Beer selection and wine are great too.
They have a big sign saying ' Welcome Pizza Lovers'. Hahaha I guess I'm welcome here!
A pleasant experience
Great gluten-free pizza. Pricey and flat, but tasty!
Potato skins were good, sandwiches were good, attentive but not annoying server.
We would highly recommend Ristorante Illando and its staff if you are looking for a beautiful and delicious meal in downtown San Diego. Everything was perfect from the choices of beer and wine to the beautifully crafted food. And best of all, they offer Gluten Free Pasta for those with an issue eating gluten and the taste was still superb. The wait staff were very friendly, helpful and attentive without being overbearing. Five Stars all around!
Oh my gosh. When they said that this was the best Italian food in San Diego they weren’t kidding!!!
It was absolutely fabulous. The portions are generous, and even with five of us we didn’t get to taste near the food I would have liked to, but it sure gives me something to look forward to, as I am determined to come back to the San Diego area for many reasons, but Enoteca Adriano is right up there at the top .
Then there was our server, Ada. She was fantastic personable, knowledgeable, explained the dishes to the T!!!! You could almost taste the food from her descriptions. Her service along with that of her cohorts that brought some of the dishes to the table was impeccable. I’m sorry to say I forgot how many years she said she was working here. I believe it was at least five, but possibly many more. She is just a gem!!!
Our ticket said 3 were dining but there were 5 of us.
So we chose two appetizers to begin with, both of them
House favorites.
Enoteca Adriania was Fresh burrata wrapped with parma prosciutto, arugula, fresh fig jam, baby heirloom tomatoes, crostini.
Burrata Special was Fresh burrata with tomato relish and steamed fresh butternut squash cubed and topped with frisée and fig jam-(my recollection prob not as perfect as dish was)served with crostini.
2 of us chose to indulge in a glass of Aglionica Red Wine 🍷 .
My daughter really enjoyed her entree of Orecchiette Bosco which was Minced Italian sausage, creamy tomato parsley sauce, bread crumbs, (Gluten free or eggless options on pasta)
Our friend Rosa and my hubby both ordered the special which was Lasagne. Fresh sheets of pasta layered with meatballs and fresh tomato 🍅 sauce topped with Burrata. It was truly divine.
B. Ordered the Ravioli Rossi which was delectable tender
Lobster filled ravioli, tiger shrimp, and a lobster reduction sauce. She commented that she “was in heaven”.
I ordered the Gnocchi di Casa which were-the plumpest pillows of Potato dumpling, gorgonzola, spinach, topped with crushed walnuts. It was the best gnocchi I’ve ever eaten!
We spoiled ourselves even more with Lattes and Cappuccinos. We ordered Cannolis and Tiramisu- and even enjoyed a Limoncello.
It was an exquisite evening and experience-The food and service created the perfect ambiance.
I can’t wait to return!
First time customer. Service was friendly and very helpful. The food was delicious. There was gluten free option's. The gluten free pasta was delicious. The sauce was delicious. The ravioli was incredible delicious and creamy. Perfect combination 👌
We had a lovely girls dinner on Saturday night. Outstanding service and food was delicious! I went gluten free and did steak and did not disappoint. The other shared pizza and pasta and loved everything
