    Wonderful! We had dinner inside but the outside patios are so inviting with twinkle lights and cozy heaters, too. And...dog friendly! The cioppino was full of seafood and served in a tomato-based broth. Just the right spice. Pastas are a freshly made. I had the pappardelle with lamb sausage ragu. Fully satisfying. Our first time here...certainly not the last!

    Had a fun lowkey evening with a friend. We could have happily ordered a dinner of all appetizers if the pizza didn't sound so good. We got the appetizer trio and the burrata for starters and the truffle bianche pizza (no pic) and ended with some classic tiramisu. I enjoyed wine with our dinner and my friend got a wonderful specialty fall spritz. The most disappointing bite was the stuffed squash blossoms, I was just expecting more than it was. It was bland with way too much coating. I think the burrata with Prosciutto was the best bite. It wasn't overly salty and just tasted fresh and creamy. I would definitely go back, there's so many other items on the menu I would try.

    Our favorite neighborhood restaurant: great pasta, good pizza (crust a touch too thick to my liking), good happy hour, great value for pizza Tuesday, responsive service (special shout out to Olavo). and our favorite lasagna on "Funday" Sunday.

    I like the atmosphere and BJ’s in La Jolla! We sat outside under heating. Had a good server and we spent about two hours over there. Other BJ’s are not as popular as this. Thank you!
