The spouse & I were visiting my daughter, who lives in San Diego. She had not been to Madison & neither had we. We all enjoyed the tomato & burrata appetizer. We also had the cioppino, Tuscan sausage rigatoni & chicken piccata; all were so good! Spouse & I had the Ibarra & The Woodsman, which were delicious. Service from Kylee excellent. We also enjoyed the music. My daughter plans to bring her roommates here.

This was my first time to this location in Mission Valley. Love it! The servers were outstanding (thank you Ken) and the food was great. Recommend the Thai Shrimp salad, the pumpkin donuts, and white pizza.We sat outside and the tables were spacious and not cramped at all. They had shade sails which reduced the sun exposure. Parking is a little challengin but they have a valet if you prefer to avoid waiting for a spot. Will definitely we back again.
