- TTaschaSan Diego •3 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoEverything was perfect- the food, the service, even the beautifully decorated patio. It was a chilly night and we were concerned we would be cool dinning outdoors, but the heat lamps did the trick. They also offered throw blankets, but they were not needed. We enjoyed several different dishes, but the octopus and lasagna were my favorite!More infoCesarinaPrice: Moderate• Italian• Ocean Beach•4.9
