Nicolosi's on 5th

This new location in the Gaslamp Quarter has the same delicious food, good service and family, friendly ambiance as the location on Navajo Road. We enjoyed: 🦞 Lobster mac and cheese, 🥩 Meatballs and pasta,🐖 Sicilian starter 🍝 Fusilli Pasta with cream sauce; 🍝 Linguini with white clam sauce 🍝 Cheese ravioli, 🍝 Lasagna 🦞 Cioppino 🍕 BBQ chicken pizza 🍕 Goat Cheese & Shrimp Pesto Pizza 🐓 Chicken marsala 🍮 Cannoli They also have a full bar, and nice outdoor patio seating.

5 stars doesn't do justice to this place. It's literally heaven on earth for Italian food. The photo proves that I couldn't wait to take a picture. I ordered the oven meat ravioli (filled with meatball meat) and my fiancee ordered the lobster mac n' cheese. The first came with a lot of the best marinara sauce i've ever tasted and a perfect excess of cheese. The mac came with a mix of like 4 cheeses and a lot of lobster. Both were perfect in flavor, temperature and presentation... but the marinara man...is just on another level. Please if you order anything there, taste the marinara either way. We also ordered the garlic bread that was great but eclipsed by the raviolis and mac. I had to reschedule my day tomorrow so I can come back and taste the pizza that looked awesome.

Enjoyed dinner here! I had the fettuccine chicken Alfredo. The fettuccine was cooked perfectly- great flavors! We also ordered a pepperoni and sausage pizza- also amazing! We brought our grandmother here and she loved the atmosphere. The staff was friendly and prompt! We would eat here again and when someone asks “where would you go for Italian around here?” Nicolosi’s is our first recommendation.

Our server was very friendly and nice, but the food was terrible and just very bland. We ordered Bruschetta and Baked Spaghetti.

Food was good. Lobster Mac n cheese was good. We were told the wait was 15 minutes, expected for a Saturday night, but many tables were empty. Seemed understaffed.

Food was really good! The pasta is homemade and credible. The marinara sauce is really something special. I got the meat ravioli and would go with the cheese if I were to go again. The meat is literally a slice of a meatball. Only complaint was our waiter. Another waiter had to get the ball rolling for us. We had to initiate every interaction with him. Otherwise, quite good.

This was one of the best experiences at an Italian restaurant in such a long time! The drinks were great and food... delicious! The decor was lovely and so cute that there’s a window to watch the chefs work their magic. Definitely will become a go to for me

Very cute little restaurant in gas lamp. Reasonable prices for gas lamp. We had the gorgonzola walnut salad to start and it was good but I wasn't a huge fan of the dressing. I feel like a different more fruit or less balsamic dressing would compliment it much better. My friend had the fettuccine alfredo and was not impressed. She said it was bland. I have this issue with a lot of alfredos so I wasn't surprised. The food did come out super hot and fresh. You can tell they make everything which is great. I had the gnocchi Tuscan. It was really good. They seem to have amazing pizzas. Next time I'll try one for sure. The service here is awesome tho. Everyone was so nice
