Drinks and food were amazing. Highly recommend starting off with the margherita pizza as an appetizer and then ANY pasta as the main dish. We had the penne arrabiata add sausage and linguine al pesto add chicken. Both were 10/10.

Review for Blade 39 - Oceanside, CA I recently dined at Blade 39, and it was an absolutely delightful experience! I ordered the mushroom pappardelle, and it was perfection—rich, earthy, and perfectly balanced flavors that left me savoring every bite. My dad had the salad with salmon, and we both agreed it was the most perfectly cooked salmon we’ve ever tasted—tender, flavorful, and cooked to absolute perfection. The ambiance of Blade 39 was welcoming and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring our evening was nothing short of amazing. If you’re in Oceanside and looking for a place with excellent food and exceptional service, Blade 39 is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be returning!

One of the best restaurants in San Diego. Always great when the owner visits every table to see how his guests are enjoying everything.

We had Caprese salads, which were good. I had gnocchi, which were excellent- light and airy with a flavorful sugo. Hubby had Penne & Meatballs with spicy arrabicca, which was also excellent. The prices were reasonable and service was attentive.

Food & service were excellent! The noise level was very high, even at 5:30. Maybe turning off the TV would help.

We love the food here as well as the most excellent service. Everyone is so friendly, attentive and accommodating. Our server suggested the rigatoni and sausage pasta with a side of shrimp. Primo! One of the best pasta dishes I have ever had!

Blade 1936 is a fabulous restaurant. The waiter suggested adding the sausage and shrimp to the ribbon pasta dish. He was right. Service was quick and the staff were attentive. We loved the place and may eat there again tonight.

We just returned from Italy and were looking for a good meal that reminded us of our travels. The risotto, pizza and truffle pasta exceeded our expectations! The cocktails were exceptionally good too!
