Monello

At first i was thrown off by how the bartenders failed to make eye contact for a good 15 minutes, but that was resolved exponentially by the 2 guys working behind the bar. Drinks were delicious and we recieved our food in the most timely manner. The food was above and beyond expectations and you will see me again very soon

Loved it. The cheese pasta. Amazing! I don't think you can go wrong here. Everything we ordered was delicious.

Took my sister here. Happy Hour at the bar with free mini apps and then off to dinner. This is a great place with 5 stars if you don't need good bread with your Italian meal. We both agreed that the bread was really bad and therefore, can't give it 5 stars. Spongy and that's all I'll say. Not to worry, most Italian restaurants in San Diego have the same problem. Good bread is expensive or time consuming to make. However, we're old school and like a good old rustic Italian crusty bread with our wine and meal.

Nice outside seating and friendly waiters. The food is good, but not amazing to be honest.

The bread was not complementary, we ordered it for $2. We ordered the breaded chicken and the pasta stuffed with truffle. The chicken tastes good and the portion is big. The truffle pasta was good too, maybe a bit too heavy.

Overall I think its a good restaurant, but a bit overpriced compared to other restaurants in Little Italy.

Was that my pasta in a giant wheel of cheese?

This is a top notch place. The service is really what gets me, our food came out fast, hot, and correct. Beyond that, our drinks never went empty.

The food is great they have a special where your pasta is mixed within a large cheese wheel and I just can't get enough of that concept.

You'll leave full and happy which is always good.
