Dined in for the first time and had an amazing time & meal at Cardellino! My boyfriend and I started with the Chop Salad & Sourdough Boule - both were fantastic. The Chop Salad was a healthy portion, great for sharing and the Sourdough was baked fresh to order. For entrees we indulged in the Sunday Supper Spaghetti and Spicy Rigatoni. The crème fraîche in the S.S.S worked perfectly with the short rib & the spicy rigatoni was rich in flavor. The service was great & loved the attention to detail for decor. I met Jeffrey, a newer manager, and he was so kind! Will be coming back soon, looking forward to trying more from the menu. read more

Cardellino - Sunday Supper Spaghetti & Spicy Rigatoni - Italian Near Me - San Diego, California

Started off HOT w/the meatballs. They were so good. Tasted like homemade Italian. To die for. And then the arugula w/the filet mignon carpaccio. Unique and unreal flavors. Wine Tuesday w/half off bottles of wine was dope. But the time spaced out between the dishes were far too long. It's like we were waiting for pigs to fly. And then the main dishes. The Cacio e Pepe was so bland. Literally no salt AT ALL. I don't even understand. And the bolognese & green beans were just ok. Service was ok. read more

What a fantastic experience! We had a reservation for 6 outside, but with it being the hottest day, they thoughtfully moved us inside - what a win! Our waitress was an absolute gem, making our daughter's birthday celebration extra special. She handled all our orders with grace, and when the food arrived, it was simply amazing, fresh, and top-notch. While it might be a bit pricey, the quality you get makes it a highly recommended spot! #Reservation #Celebration #Food #Quality read more

Came here for the Mother's Day brunch; overall had a mix of hits and misses. Started with the Primo Marzo; the prosciutto was definitely the star of the dish, super tender, and all the ingredients tasted really fresh. I just felt like it needed one more element to tie everything together. The spicy rigatoni was simple but packed with great tomato and spice flavors. I actually think this dish would've been even better with a meat ragu added to it. The smoked salmon bagel chip was really good; light, fresh, and the salmon was tender and flavorful. The fried capers and thin crispy bagel gave it a fun twist on a traditional bagel and lox. The porcini & pea tortelloni wasn't my favorite. The sauce felt too thick and the pasta was a little too al dente for my taste. The more I ate it, the less I enjoyed it. I really wanted to love the steak and eggs, but the steak was overly salted and hard to enjoy because of it. Dessert was mixed too. The cannoli was delicious; light, crispy, and simple in the best way. The olive oil cake, though, tasted dry to me and the flavors didn't really work together. Not a fan of that one. read more

My friends and I came here for dinner on a Saturday night and it was delicious! Service was quick and staff were welcoming. The restaurant is really cute inside, but fairly small. There's both indoor and outdoor seating available. Parking was a bit tricky, but there's plenty on the street and in the residential area. I'd definitely come back! Worth a try if you're in the area. Food/drink review: Pinot Grigio: (3/5) crisp and refreshing, but I wish it was a little bit sweeter than it was. Lamb lollipops: (5/5) Extremely tender and flavorful! It didn't taste gamey at all. Spaghetti with clams: (5/5) I couldn't partake as I am allergic. My friend said it was amazing! Super flavorful and balanced. Spicy rigatoni with meatballs: (5/5) This was super rich in flavor. The sauce was creamy and noodles cooked to perfection. I really enjoyed the meatballs too, they were tender and seasoned well. Carrot cake: (5/5) BOMB. This was absolutely amazing. The cake itself was moist, the frosting with the nuts had great texture, and the caramel sauce was the perfect addition to the dessert. You have to have a bite of everything together. read more

I had heard about this place for a while now, but hadn't gone. We had tickets to the show so we decided to go here prior. It's so cute inside with the lemon wall paper and wood walls to contrast. The very high ceilings and chandeliers are a very nice touch. Serve was very on point and our waiter really knew his stuff. Explained different dishes what they came with abd how things were cooked. I had no questions! Hee hee. We started with red wine from the extensive wine selections and sparkling water with lemon. Then we got our sourdough bread omg! So good with the garlic paste and perfect with the wine. A friend and I couldn't decide on what to have so we shared the fillet and the Sunday Spaghetti. The fillet was so amazing and I'm not much of a pasta person but the Sunday spaghetti was "chef's kiss"! So delicious and the crème fresh with the short ribs was such a great combination. I'm going to dream about that. I can believe I waited this long to come here and will most definitely be back! Thank you for all the great food and hard work! Also had a bite of the pork chop! Yum. Our other friend had ny strip in our pic. read more

I have been to Cardellino twice now and both visits were great. It's a place I'll keep returning to with friends, but it's not at the top of my list since it's a little pricey for the quality/portions. Not saying it's low quality by any means, it's just out of my typical budget to make it a priority to return to. Reservations are recommend, it's nice to walk right up and go to your table instead of having to worry if there is room. Pet friendly patio, my first visit I was with my old dog and I always look back on the photo we took here as a favorite memory of just how good he was in restaurant settings. I just looked at their menu and it's already changed from my most recent visit which is great, I love trying new things. But for that reason I'll keep my review short since I can't recommend what I've already tried from here as it's no longer on the menu haha! read more

Cardellino has some excellent food options, everything on the menu sounds so good! 14oz prime ribeye was the best, had some fatty parts but excellent flavor and cooked to perfection! Woah spaghetti vongole was also so delicious! Definitely an excellent food options when in San Diego, HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Aperol Spritz are a great drink option. read more

Dude. The review must start like that for anything radically delicious in San Diego. I had no idea SD could knock Italian out of the park like that. Well, I guess it does make sense given they have a Little Italy. Anyways, everything we ordered was bomb.com! Legit. Here's what we ordered. I'd recommend you follow my foot steps. Chopped salad. Quite possibly the best chopped salad I've had. Spicy rigatoni. I could not stop eating it even when I was full. The taste is addictive. Radiatori Bolognese. They should just rename this radically delicious bolognese. Fritto misto. Taste the sea baby. We sat at the bar which honestly has such a great vibe even though our reservation was for a table. I'd do it again. Shout out to our super attentive bar tender/waiter. He was suave and friendly. Cheers! read more

We had a very nice experience at Cardellino last night. They were quite full for a Wednesday night but we had a reservation so we did not have to wait. The ambiance here is very nice though I might say it was a bit too loud to carry on a conversation and way too dark to read the menu. Just about everyone in the restaurant had to read it using their camera flashlight.Had there been a tad less noise and a bit more light it would have been perfect. Service was very good but not great. I had to ask for my water to be refilled by flagging down a busboy and the waiter didn't come back to check on my dinner until I was finished eating. He did promptly come to clean off the table after I finished. I would have happily skipped the table wipe down in favor of checking in more promptly. I got the feeling they were understaffed as my waiter was definitely busy running from table to table non stop. We ordered three lamb chops, a side of asparagus and the branzino.The branzino and asparagus were both excellent. The lamb was very good. My issue with the lamb chop is that they do not ask you how you like it. It is delivered to the table- medium. I found this to be a tad off putting for a high end restaurant. I was also not given a steak knife. I had to work a bit to cut it with the butter knife I was given. That said, once I added a bit of salt and lemon it was delicious. Frankly by the end of the meal I was just picking the chops up with my hands anyway so the lack of a proper knife didn't matter. We skipped dessert since I am a true chocoholic and there was simply nothing particularly chocolatey there. Overall this is a very nice restaurant. read more

Cardellino's Italian Restaurant delivered a great experience from start to finish. The appetizers were solid--the bread alone was worth it. The steak was tender and cooked well, and the potatoes were perfectly crispy, savory, and well-seasoned. The spicy pasta was a standout--full of flavor and not overly spicy, so don't be intimidated. I had it with meatballs, but I'm already planning to try it with short rib next time. I skipped dessert because the cocktails at their speakeasy, Carlo, were my dessert. Carlo is a beautiful, intimate space with true craft cocktails made right. Must try the Toga Party. Well done Trust Group. I love going to Trust for brunch. Fort Oak for happy hour. Now, Cardellino for dinner. Great food, great drinks, and a fun overall vibe. Would absolutely return. read more

Cardellino did NOT disappoint. Easily one of the best meals I've had in the past year! Highly recommend for an elevated steakhouse date night. Cocktails were immaculate. Sides, mains, and appetizers all left my jaw on the floor. And of course the service was perfect, even during that mysterious week between Christmas and the start of the new year, when time doesn't exist. So excited to go back! read more

We celebrated our anniversary at Cardellino, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Even though the restaurant was fully booked for the evening, the front desk went above and beyond to make our night special. We called around 7pm and they reassured us they would try their best, and--miraculously--managed to find us seats without making us feel like an inconvenience! We were able to book a reservation for 8pm and even managed to get in earlier. Their kindness and welcoming attitude set the tone for the entire evening. The atmosphere was cozy and vibrant. All the dishes were beautifully crafted. The lamb lollipops were to die for. Each bite popped with savory flavors. Each dish had its own unique taste. I wil never forget how expeditionary the food and service was. The experience felt even more memorable because it started with genuine care. If I could, I would give Cardellino more than five stars for its outstanding service and delicious food. read more

Wow. The food was phenomenal! For starters, we had the sourdough - so good. The bread crust was perfect and so soft and chewy inside. The lamb lollipops were great. The ribeye was delicious, and I loved the sides of mushrooms, roasted carrots, and the bucatini cacio e pepe was the best. We also tried their desserts and the standout was the moist carrot cake!!

Cardellino - Carrot cake, tiramisu cheesecake, and apple strudel a la mode - Italian Near Me - San Diego, California

We sat at the full-service bar and were warmly taken care of by a fantastic bartender. We started with their sourdough. The bread was perfectly crunchy and chewy on the outside with a soft, pillowy center. Next came the chopped Italian salad, generously finished with shredded pecorino, but the standout appetizer for me was the tuna tartare. We went all in with their signature 38-oz Bistecca Fiorentina. It was beautifully seasoned and cooked to perfection. When the first steak didn't meet their standards, the kitchen remade it, and the manager kindly treated us to a dessert for the wait, a gesture that truly showed their commitment to hospitality. The space was warm and inviting I will be back! read more

Cardellino has quickly become one of my favorite spots. It feels special in that effortless way, elevated and a little fancy, but still warm and welcoming. It's the kind of place you can count on when you want a really good meal in a beautiful setting. Everything we ordered felt thoughtfully prepared and high quality, with flavors that feel refined but not overcomplicated. The ambiance makes it perfect for a date night or celebrating something, but it still feels comfortable enough that you can just relax and enjoy being there. It's one of those restaurants you find yourself wanting to come back to again and again. Definitely a standout. read more

Cardellino is a solid restaurant choice. Italian American at its finest. I was a fan of Brooklyn Girl before but happy that it's replacement has been a gem. We started dining here back when they had brunch. We miss their brunch! Burrata on top of your eggs?!? Yes, please! I think our last brunch was 2022. Their dinner menu is limited to mostly pasta, steak, and one or two fish entrees. They do of course have appetizers and sides. My go to entree is the Bucatini with guanchiale. So good. Onions and sauce cooked to perfection! With the right amount of Parmesan cheese. Their lamb lollipops are a must! $9 a pop My husband is a big fan of the their steak, his go to is the NY strip. The truffled potatoes are nicely done. The chopped salad is nice, and perfect if dining with a larger group. A couple bites are enough. On our last visit with a larger group we got to share the tiramisu cheesecake and the melted granache with the expresso sorbet combination were simply divine. They have a good HH which is mostly worth it for drinks.. about $7 average for cocktail/ wine. The bar gets pretty busy during HH so I do recommend getting there earlier if that's your plan. We eat dinner early and restaurants tend to be quieter when we arrive. By the time we left Cardellino, it was packed! The service is great! Like really good, on top of it, professional and knowledgeable. Just what you'd want from the staff. If you've dined at Cardellino before keep visiting if it's been a while, it's time to go back. If youve never been , well I hope this review changes your mind. read more

Been meaning to come here for years now. It's a coworkers absolute favorite and she's been telling me to go forever. Definitely not disappointed. It was dimly lit and ambient inside. Staff was clearly working very hard and was super helpful all night. The cocktails were excellent and the chop salad was huge and delicious. Whatever herb butter they used for the steak was amazing and I loved the mushroom polenta. Looking forward to coming back again soon! read more

What a gem of a place! Tucked away in Mission Hills, Cardellino is a divine place for happy hour and a nice dinner! The inside is cozy with beautiful interior and the bar is beautiful. Happy hour starts right at opening and goes until 6. We snagged a glass of wine at the bar before sitting down at our table since happy hour only applies to the bar or outdoor patio. Luckily, it wasn't too busy on a Thursday at opening so we were able to enjoy our wine before our meal. Our server was incredibly kind and recommended the spicy rigatoni which we already knew was a fan favorite! We also split the 14oz ribeye and it was plenty to share. The steak was cooked perfectly and topped with an incredible garlic butter. The spicy rigatoni was fresh and the noodles were cooked perfectly al dente -- just the way we like them. I'd 10/10 recommend trying this place if you're looking to blend a delicious Italian meal with some top quality steak! read more

I really wanted to give this place another go, seeing that I had a mostly positive experience with the food despite the service. After my experience last night, I am quite disappointed. Waitress is still very rushed, extremely unaccomodating when it comes to dietary allergies and restrictions. Steak - there was a shiny piece of plastic on mine (see video) as part of the awful seasoning/marinade, and it was undercooked!! Literally served cold and impossible to cut. I got a good amount of attitude when I asked to send it back. So much wrong with this steak. You will be paying for at least 7 oz of pure fat. Don't get it. Would you like some salad with your cheese? Lasagna: still lacks enough sauce. Unsurprising seeing how STINGY this restaurant is with even their "shareable plates." Sourdough, "salad,"roasted carrots, and even the truffle potatoes are by NO MEANS in large enough portions to be shared by more than 2 people AT MOST. Neither are their desserts! They brought out 4 slices of cake for 30 people, and they give so much attitude if you ask where the rest of the food is. This is not an Italian restaurant I can reasonably recommend anymore. Also, can't speak toward the drinks given that I never got the drink menu I asked twice for. Oh well. read more

My boyfriend and I went here to celebrate our anniversary! He did an amazing job in his restaurant choice. We had a reservation for 8:45pm but the show we attended ran late and we were able to change our reservation to 9:30pm. Service was amazing! Our waitress made great suggestions from the menu. She was quick and sweet. The other servers were very nice as well and cleaned up our table and packed our leftovers as we ate/other courses came. For a drink my boyfriend ordered the summer estate which he gives a 10/10 rating. It was a tequila based watermelon chile drink. I enjoyed a sip too but I don't favor spicy drinks. For appetizers we ordered the 3 favorites: chopped salad, fritto misto (calamari) and lamb lollipops (1 piece per order) If theirs one thing you order get the lamb lollipops. We ordered 2 pieces but wish we had ordered more. The meat is flavorful and tender and the salsa/chimichurri sauce paired perfectly. Immediate 10/10 rating. The chopped salad was a 9/10. The flavors good and I love the generous amount of cheese that covers the entire plate. My bf and I wish there was more salami though. One of the requirements for dinner reservations I gave my bf was 1) good calamari and 2) pasta. The calamari definitely satisfied my craving. We gave this a 9/10 rating. I wish it had tentacles and the tartar sauce was meh. However, I like that it came with fried calamari, onion and shrimp. My boyfriend loved the bitter fried olives. The marinara sauce was a good dipping sauce. For our entrees we ordered the spicy rigatoni and the ribeye steak (medium rare) Both were good. The steak was salty which my boyfriend likes. The spicy rigatoni was good but the pasta was overcooked/soft. We would've preferred the pasta to be a bit more al dente. As ordered we gave both an 8/10. However, we asked our server for more of the chimichurri sauce from the lamb lollipops and that gave the perfect acidic taste for the steak and pasta. Making this the perfect balance and super flavorful meal! We agreed we'd pass on the ribeye next time and instead order more lamb lollipops. For dessert we ordered the carrot cake and the affogato. The carrot cake was very moist. I gave it a 7/10 but my boyfriend thought it was perfect and gave it a 10/10. He loved this carrot cake so much he wants to see if they'll sell the entire cake for his birthday next month. (We forgot to ask) The affogato was perfect too. At first my bf just wanted a coffee to go with the cake but after trying it he was so glad we got the affogato instead. This was surprising since he isn't usually a sweets/dessert person. I'm the one with a big sweet tooth. The ambiance of the restaurant is beautiful. I love the low lighting, the brick accent walls, the bar looks beautiful. They have both indoor and outdoor patio seating. When I went to the women's restroom I saw they have a private room. I'm definitely telling my family and friends about this restaurant and would love to use the private room for a bday party or engagement party. We already talked about taking our friends here when they visit from New York. 10/10 experience! Definitely at the top of my recommendation list for yummy food, date night, dinner etc. read more

So looking up on Yelp for a good wholesome restaurant that has soul found this one. I do leave a lot of reviews. I don't leave a lot of reviews but this one in particular I'm gonna leave a review because he has been around for a while and has 7 to 9 other restaurants that I need to try. The food five stars the price was very pricey. I'm not gonna lie. But everything we have and tried was great. The service was good. The waiter was great. Don't really remember his name, but he did a great job explaining to everything with everything was in the taste of it. Sitting outside of the restaurant would I like to enjoy the inside, but I guess we have to make reservations or sit at the bar didn't agree with that, but the food was still good. read more

Very cute restaurant and nice and friendly service. However, the food was... just alright. We ordered the spicy rigatoni, the beef carpaccio, and the chop salad. I liked the chop salad the most.

I spent about $110 for everything I ordered. read more

Really solid menu top to bottom, came here for a private dinner and everything was seriously so delectable. The sourdough boule had a great funk to it and was so delicious. The lamp lollipops were tender and flavorful. Prosciutto burrata salad solid. The filet mignon solid. The spicy rigatoni and cacio de Pepe were reallly good and perfectly flavored. I went back for seconds and even third. Green beans were amazing to accompany everything. And finally the tiramisu cheesecake AND carrot cake is out of this world. I can't wait to come back here. Lastly the staff were all so attentive and provided such an amazing experience for our group. I highly recommend the private room for your next occasion. Beautiful space, killer food and impeccable service. read more

We booked a reservation at Cardellino for my birthday, and it absolutely did not disappoint. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and guided to the bar. The staff works incredibly hard and genuinely goes above and beyond to create a great dining experience. For appetizers, we tried the calamari, meatballs, sourdough bread, chopped salad, and lamb lollipops. Every single dish was delicious, and I would happily order any of them again. As a self-proclaimed pasta girl, I was in heaven. I've tried the bolognese, lobster triangoli, bucatini, and the Sunday Supper spaghetti, all phenomenal and highly recommended. For dessert, we shared the tiramisu cheesecake and panna cotta, which were the perfect ending to the meal. The lighting is dim and intimate, and despite being busy, it's never overly noisy. We've been a couple of times now, and each visit has been consistently wonderful. Truly a lovely evening every time. read more

My fiancé took me here for my birthday. This place is amazing. Their service was on point. It's a great place for a date night or special dinner with family. The patio appeared to be dog friendly as well. I love when places are worth the price! We had the sourdough bread with butter (so good!) and carpaccio. I didn't know I loved carpaccio until now, it was topped with mushrooms and greens. Meatballs were classic and safe - Lamb lollipops are a must here! We also shared the spicy rigatoni and tiramisu cheesecake with an espresso martini. I can't stop telling people how amazing this place is. I recommend it and can't wait to take my friends and family here. It is attached to a soft serve ice cream spot that's yummy (the rotating captain crunch is my favorite). read more

Came for a girl's night and had a great time from the food to the service. Had a reservation for 6pm and we got seated right away. Started with a glass of wine that they let me sample before I ordered a glass. They have a bunch of apps, pastas, sides and because they are a butcher house they also had a bunch of different cuts of beef. They also make their pasta in house and they mentioned they also add different seasonings (i.e. tumeric, paprika, etc) into the pasta for a twist. We got the tuna tartare, arancini, Sunday supper spaghetti, spicy rigatoni, oven roasted asparagus and cauliflower. Got the tiramisu cheesecake for dessert. Favorites were the spicy rigatoni and the cauliflower. The spicy rigatoni is a vodka sauce and it was sooo rich in flavor with just the tiniest bit of heat. I love vodka sauce and this might be the best one I've ever had. The cauliflower had a really nice contrast of flavors and textures with the creaminess from the mascarpone to the crunch from the gremolata. The Sunday supper was pretty heavy with the short rib and creme fraiche for my personal taste. Oven roasted asparagus was fine but nothing I couldn't have easily done at home. Cheesecake was super light which was kind of nice but I wish the cheesecake flavor itself was more prominent. read more

Cardellino. Good experience overall with some noticeable misses. The meatballs were fantastic, and the calamari had amazing flavor. Drinks were good, but one disappointing moment was when a friend ordered an Old Fashioned and it came with crushed ice. He asked for a single large cube (which is pretty standard) and was told there would be a $1.50 upcharge per drink. At a higher-end steakhouse, that felt unnecessary. Our 22oz bone-in steak took close to an hour to come out and wasn't piping hot. Flavor was good, but not standout. The pastas were very basic and nothing special. On the upside, the carrot cake was incredible!! one of the best we've ever had. Service was decent, nothing exceptional. If they can improve ticket times and refine the drink program, I'd definitely return. Cheers, read more

Our service seemed a bit slow. They did have a very large party that came in right behind us. The slower pace could have also been a part of their cultural. The appetizers fried calamari and a small loaf of bread were good. The bread had some garlic butter. Very tasty. The pork chop was excellent. Great flavor, tender and not fatty. I would strongly consider ordering it again. The other 2 in my party ordered pasta dishes and both said they were amazing. We will be back. read more

Maybe it was an off day, but the food and drinks were disappointing for me. I took my father here for Father's Day and we ordered the NY strip, ribeye, lamb chops, spicy rigatoni, bread, and two vegetable sides. We ordered all of the meats medium, but they came out much closer to rare and were excessively fatty, which combined with undercooking made them very chewy. The spicy rigatoni and vegetables were decent, but nothing particularly memorable. The bread was delicious. Unfortunately, my lemon drop martini was not good either. For a $500+ meal I expected better. read more

My wife and I had a wonderful dinner at this restaurant. This place is beautiful and the aumbionce was great. Decor-this place is beautiful and you could tell they spent great deal of time planning every detail. You're instantly transported to Italy or Spain. Simply lovely inside. Service-very good service. Food-loved the diversity in menu options. Multiple types of cuts, several pasta options and a lot of appetizers. Lamb lollipops-4/5 stars. I bit too salty for us, but the chimichurri sauce was very good and helped cut the saltiness of the rub. Burrata salad-5/5 stars. This was wonderfully put together and the portion was perfect for sharing between 2 people. Loved this dish. Pasta-2/5 stars. Don't remind the name, but it had clams and too much lemon zest. It was too zesty, and that overpowered the dish. New York Strip-5/5 stars. Steak was cooked perfectly to medium temp, it was well seasoned, and cook to perfection. We enjoyed every bite. Well done guys, can't wait to bring the rest of our family. read more
