We visited on a busy Friday night. Our food was excellent! At our table we had the Chicken Parmesan, Gnocchi, Lasagna, and the Artichoke ravioli... Everyone enjoyed their meal, and the service was attentive as well. They don't take reservations for less than 6 people, so you might have to wait on a weekend... It's well worth doing so in my opinion. Enjoy! Vegetarian options: They have several vegetarian options. Kid-friendliness: This is definitely a family place and they seem to do a good job with kids. It's on the crowded side so strollers might not be the best option. Parking: They offer off street parking, but it does fill up! Wheelchair accessibility: It's all ground level so access shouldn't be a problem. Again, it is on the crowded side but I'm sure they will accommodate you.
My niece and fiancés sis picked this place for their high school graduation meal celebration. The food is so good. The minestrone soup is incredibly yummy. They serve dinner rolls and garlic dinner rolls both yummy but the garlic ones are addicting. Everyone enjoyed their meals, the pasta was excellent. Great place to get Italian food. The service is good too. Our large party was accommodated and we got to seat outside which was nice.
A little Italian gem in our east county of San Diego is my favorite Italian go to restaurant. Indoor dining or on the outdoor covered patio, both are great choices to enjoy your dinner. The interior has large framed black and white photos of past Italian movie stars, boxers and baseball players and sports memorabilia. A square shaped sit at counter for drinks or eating alone facing the bar. Best wood fired pizza here and when I'm short on money their spaghetti with meat sauce with fresh in house baked bread for $10.99 is a real winner but I love their authentic lasagna. If you like Italian you'll love Ottavio's
