Best Italian Restaurants in Scripps Ranch

We love making reservations for the holidays. Great ambiance, good food, and always excellent service. The staff is very attentive and friendly! Our chicken dish needed to be crispy but we declined on getting another dish. The waiter brought a new one anyway. And we got to keep the other dish, which was just fine at no charge. I always tip big to give the server a smile on their face. They remember me when I come back.

This was our first time at Cesarina, and it won’t be our last! The pastas were absolutely outstanding—I especially loved my Arrabiatissima with malfalde and guanciale—and the table-side-made tiramisu was the best we’ve ever had. We loved the ambiance of the outside patio. Everything was splendid and the staff worked tirelessly and successfully to create a festive environment. Can’t wait to return!

The wood fired lobster tail was to die for. Beet salad was excellent. Wait staff was attentive, personable and accommodating. We will be back!

Wonderful experience, excellent food and attentive service.

Always the best experience. Vittorio’s is part of our annual holiday traditions but that doesn’t mean we don’t come year round. Always a welcoming and prompt service from everyone there that makes you feel like family. Some of the most authentic and homey Italian food you can find in town!
