Great little Italian restaurant a few blocks from the gaslight district and balboa park. We had ‘The Works’ pizza and a few different west coast beers. The food was great and the staff very friendly!

Great 4 cheese pizza! Added Pepperoni which were thin and delicious. Crust is crunchy exterior and chewy center, not crisp enough to pick up a slice until you eat half.

Good pizza. Really good. Their dough is that perfect level of fluffy without being too bready, if you know what I mean.

I’ve been looking for a good local pizza place and had high hopes for this but was slightly disappointed. The cheese on the pizza was too thick and chewy, and there wasn’t enough sauce. Maybe I’ll try the thin crust next and maybe that will be better.

This place is great for unfussy Italian food with friendly unpretentious service. We had the Cap’s Calzone and Spaghetti EVOO with shrimp (AKA aglio e olio). The portions are generous, and the food is tasty. The spaghetti was perfectly Al dente. The garlic bread was good, if a little unusual because the bread had a ton of sesame seeds.

The food is always good. Chicken Parmesan sandwich and Greek salads are awesome. All of the cream pastas are amazing! Lobster cream sauce and Alfredo are super good. I love the way they offer different sauces to all the pastas. Great staff, great drinks. One of my absolute favorites in SD

Don’t trust them to get your GrubHub order right. Clearly their staff are not the brightest at reading directions or being able to answer questions. First, this doesn’t even look appetizing. Second it is definitely not dressing on the side. SMH

Awesome little local mom and pop joint. The staff remembers your name and is attentive. Good local drafts, great food. Perfect spot if you just wanna chill and watch the game. Absolutely love it.

Great place for sandwiches and pizzas. Perfect for lunch. Fresh ingredients. Fulfilling portions without being excessive. Very friendly and fast service. They also have TV with sports and a large selection of beer.
