"Overlooking the Los Penasquitos Lagoon, casual New York-style pizza joint Buonasera offers a spectacular view of the historic Torrey Pines Road Bridge and the ocean beyond. It’s impossible to get a view like that in the Big Apple. The kitchen serves fresh slices from the oven, along with old-school meatball sandwiches, calzones, and scratch-made garlic knots that get sold out as soon as they come out of the oven. Don’t skip the buttery garlic knots, even if the order is already looking full. Gather the slices, grab a beer at the outdoor bar, and enjoy the view, which shines at golden hour." - Helen I. Hwang
