Review summary
AI-generated from verified diner reviews
CUCINA urbana in San Diego offers a vibrant dining experience with "amazing food and service" and a "vast wine selection." Diners rave about the "delicious homemade pasta" and woodfired pizzas. The atmosphere is lively, though at times "very loud." Standout service from staff, notably Kevin, adds to the charm.
