- SSandiVIPSan Diego •7 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoI have walked past Petrini's several times, finally took the opportunity to try it. I was greeted and made to feel comfortable upon arrival. I was pleasantly surprised that the dinner entrees came with soup or salad and bread, unlike many eateries in Little Italy. I chose the parpadelle with lamb. It was perfection! I plan to return to try some other menu items.More infoPetrini'sPrice: Moderate• Italian• Little Italy•4.7
- AAndrewLos Angeles •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoTook my wife here for Valentine’s Day pre set menu. Was delicious. She got the wine pairing and Andrew our waiter was so knowledgeable about all the different wines with every course. I got an Old fashion and was so yummy. Just a great date night and loved the atmosphere and Andrew was an incredible waiter. Will definitely be back!More infoKettner ExchangePrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Little Italy•4.7
- HHannahSan Diego •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoMy boyfriend and I came for an early Valentine’s Day dinner and we got a sangria and Old fashioneds which were great!!The food was AMAZING. The Parker house rolls, the mussels, the steaks 🤌🏼 The only negative thing I have to say is that because we had a later reservation (10:00) we felt pretty rushed to order our food, thus feeling rushed to leave. It didn’t negatively affect our experience too much because the food was so bomb but definitely expected a higher level of service (minus the bussers and food runners who were friendly and great).More infoCowboy StarPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Downtown / Gaslamp•4.8
