Northern Italian restaurant · San Diego

"Dedicated to Milan’s aperitivo atmosphere and Italian street foods, the casual Little Italy restaurant serves up plates like panzerotti, or mini calzones; homemade butternut squash gnocchi; and grilled octopus. Weekday happy hours from 3 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. feature complimentary bites with drink orders. The gray-washed, utilitarian dining room is still sleek enough to make this a good date-night or group-dinner spot." - Helen I. Hwang, Eater Staff
