Discovering Italy by way of La Jolla, Marisi focuses on Italian hearth cooking with an emphasis on handmade pastas, fine wine and classic cocktails. The menu celebrates the rich diversity of cuisine from across Italy, fashioned in a time-honored tradition of handmade all day, every day. A dream that lives between the Italian and La Jolla coasts, suspended between tides instead of time — a mood more than a plot. A visit that feels a lot like coming home, if home was a warm, charming villa off the Amalfi coast. Marisi is a taste of something you want to remember. We hope you love it.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Chef Cameron Ingle

From the OpenTable editors: This dainty Italian restaurant is a La Jolla newcomer, but it’s already made an impression thanks to standout farm-to-table fare from executive chef Cameron Ingle (of Bouchon Bistro and Bestia fame). Toast with vermouth before digging into winners like filet mignon with mascarpone and bite-sized agnolotti.

Love the atmosphere, and food are great in general. But, the scallop dish we ordered is too salty.

Fancy looking new place. Primary emphasis is on wine not food items or food quality. Service was gracious but slow and a bit disorganized. Menu options are very limited. Some options were already unavailable even though we dined Sunday evening at 5:30 PM to be able to go to a musical performance at 7:30 PM. We had the last order of fish which arrived very late and was mushy, bony and not fresh. There are better options in La Jolla. We were surprised and disappointed.
