"Although San Diego is generally known for its casual dress code and easy attitude, Monello is a place worth dressing up for. The Milanese restaurant is most famous for its cheese wheel, which they heat, melt, and toss pasta on. Divine, yes—but if you think that's indulgent, drop in on Wednesdays, when they sub out pasta for risotto. But this is also place where the drinks are just as memorable—if not more so than—the food. If you swing by during their daily aperitivo hour, held at the bar or on the patio, you can shell out for a cocktail or a glass of wine and receive three complimentary bites (chef's choice)." - Marie Tutko, Archana Ram
