Luciano Ristorante Italiano - La Cantera

Convoy’s Getting a Drive-Thru Pizzeria | Eater San Diego

"A new Italian option is opening in Kearny Mesa this month, moving into a freestanding building on Convoy that previously hosted a succession of Asian eateries. It will be run by Joe Luciano, whose family used to own Crush, an upscale Italian restaurant in Solana Beach, and the menu will be similar to Crush: 12-inch New York–style pizzas sold whole and by the slice, Italian favorites ranging from chicken piccata to lasagna and other pastas, plus housemade focaccia and desserts. In addition to beer and wine, the restaurant will mix hard Italian sodas made with rice vodka. Serving lunch and dinner, Luciano's will also reactivate the site's drive‑thru, which will operate until midnight on weekdays and until 2 a.m. on weekends and offer an abridged menu of pizza by the slice, pasta, and sandwiches." - Candice Woo
