Italian restaurant · San Diego

"This charming spot in Little Italy Piazza della Famiglia sees Sam the Cooking Guy putting his signature spin on Italian fare, including a tasty take on chicken and waffles that features a polenta waffle paired with roast chicken in a lemon, caper, and onion sauce. Preview the space during its weekly 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. happy hour, when house cocktails like a dirty martini or negroni are $8 and shareable snacks like chicken liver mousse and crispy cacio e pepe style gnocchi are $10." - Candice Woo
