From the Italian wine list, to the squash blossoms and mushroom flan as starters, followed by the handmade pasta, warm focaccia, amazing dessert menu, and aromatic expresso, a trip to Ciccia's Osteria is an invitation to sit, relax, and enjoy the sights, smells, and exquisite tastes of Italy with your favorite people right here in San Diego. Come early, since parking is limited.

Love the food here! Sat at the enclosed outdoor patio. Lost a star due to multiple servers forgetting to provide the complimentary bread despite being asked. Good spot for families

We dined at this charming French restaurant and had a pleasant experience overall. The food was good, though not quite a 10/10. We loved the persimmons salad and the steak as meal—both were highlights of the meal. The fish, however, wasn’t our favorite as it leaned a bit too fishy for our taste. Service was attentive and friendly, and the outdoor seating was cute and inviting. A lovely spot for a relaxed evening!

We went on a Tuesday night to celebrate a special occasion. Scottie, our server, made sure we had the most amazing service. The food was wonderful and the ambience allowed us to have a meaningful conversation. Definitely a new favorite spot when visiting San Diego.
