Cesarina - Review - Point Loma - San Diego - The Infatuation
"At Cesarina, you choose your shape and sauce, and they churn out the al dente pasta right before your eyes in the open air pastificio. We suggest any shape with creamy funghi sauce, where cremini, shiitake, and porcini mushrooms almost outshine the pasta. Or the paccheri vodka and scampi, delicate and smooth with an entire langoustine on top. (It’s locally revered enough that the menu warns “BEWARE OF IMITATIONS!”) Camera flashes periodically light up the room—eat here on your birthday and your server will snap a Polaroid for you to take home as a souvenir, if the tableside tiramisu wasn’t enough of a treat already. Resist the temptation to steal your table’s adorable rooster-shaped ceramic pitcher on your way out. They’re for sale at the counter, so buy one instead." - Cora Lee
