Best Italian Restaurants in San Diego

Looking for some good Italian food? Whether you’re looking for a fabulous pasta or a great chicken parmigiana dish, San Diego has a lot to offer. Having lived in San Diego for over fifteen years, I’ve been blessed with the tasty experiences of a few Italian restaurants. Here are some that I would recommend.

Lorna’s Italian Kitchen

San Diego, CA 92122
858-452-0661

Hours: Sun-Thurs: 11am-9pm   Fri-Sat: 11am-10pm

Whether you’re with friends, family, or a date, Lorna’s is the perfect place for a casual and fun night out. Lorna’s is a small and friendly Italian restaurant. I have eaten here too many times to remember and the food is always delicious! My favorite dishes are the nightly specials. There are two to three nightly specials each evening, all of which are reasonably priced. Everything on the menu is well priced, and all the servings are large. My friends and I always have leftovers, making two meals per order. Lorna’s can be quite busy, but we have always been seated quickly. Lorna’s is also perfect if you just want to take food home. You can call and place your order, pick up your meal, and enjoy it at home. Ordering pizza to go from Lorna’s is always a great choice! The staff at Lorna’s is incredibly friendly.
