The Best Italian Restaurants in San Diego

"The upscale Italian restaurant in Liberty Station prides itself on seasonal specials such as fettuccine with spiny lobster and risotto with seared scallops. (Year-round staples include the crispy, béchamel-rich lasagna Bolognese.) Take a seat in one of their two outdoor patios — or inside, where the dark-wood-heavy dining room with tall windows adds to the romantic vibe — and try the wine flight with three half-glasses. The gluten-intolerant set can stop in for homemade gluten-free pizzas, which come for an additional $5 charge." - Helen I. Hwang, Eater Staff
