Seneca Trattoria

Definitely not going back to this place. For the same price, there are many other restaurants in SD with similar views and better food. Cons: My husband and I went there for my Birthday for early dinner at 4pm. Despite beating assured over the phone that the table with the view is a possibility, when we got there we were seated at a table by the walk way with no access to any kind of views. Every time someone walked by, the table and the chair shook making it very uncomfortable. The hostess was very condescending and told us that they were overbooked and those tables weren’t available. We were there for 2 hours and we’re still plenty of open tables. They did absolutely nothing special for the Birthday - not even a single candle on our dessert. My husband was very disappointed since he had put in a request a month earlier and also reminded them while being seated. The food is nothing special and is very bland. We could only smell the truffle on their appetizer but couldn’t taste it, des

The ambience is amazing and so well thought out. The chef and team are so on point and the food is absolutely amazing. The whole fish is a must along with Oxtail lasagna beat salad and the Pizza is top notch. Service was amazing and everyone there was so kind and helpful walking you through the menu. I highly recommend Seneca’s San Diego and can’t wait to come back

Starting from leaving the elevator they made sure you had a unique experience, I do not want to spoil it for any new guests but it was a nice surprise. So wifey and I walked in with no reservation and didn’t have anything available in the next two hours. The hostes recommended to sit at the bar and honestly I’m srtsring to like the bar more than regular seating. You get to watch which drinks are made and speak to bar tender/waiter and it gives off a great experience. Charlie is the man. The quote of the night was “Order whatever Charlie says.” He was great and his drinks were even better. It’s hard for a restaurant to accomplish back to back amazing food from appetizers all the way to desserts. When you get here do yourself a favor and order the prawns. Also get a pasta and a pizza dish. Great experience I will come back again.
