This place is awesome! I finally tried it out last night and they did not disappoint, wow! The decor is beautiful and very inviting, loved the Colosseum painting on the wall. The artichoke appetizer was amazing as well as the Beef Carpaccio. We had to try the Parmesan cheese wheel, and it was fun to watch them make it tableside and very tasty Pappardelle. My daughter loved the meatballs in Marinara sauce. The Tiramisu was one of the best I've had and I like the wine selection too and fun cocktails. Don't miss this gem when i... read more

Located in the famous GasLamp Quarters of downtown San Diego, Romanissimo Cucina Italiano is among the latest restaurants to open. Parking is a challenge but is available at nearby parking garages for a fee. Was invited to dine here with a group and we ordered multiple dishes, shared family style to savor the claim of fame Trastavere style. Trastavere is a magical area in Rome which still had cobble stone narrow streets, artisan shops, trattoria restaurants casual and lively. Have traveled to various cities in Italy inclu... read more

Food delicious, had the fettuccini alfredo and it was rich and pasta was cooked well. Had lemon dessert and it was exquisite. Highly recommend.
