Good blend of flavors not too sweet or tasting too much of the spirit . I've had other espresso martini's that were too sweet and that is not not for me. With this one you can appreciate the coffee and the liquor (not too much so this can be a dangerous drink). Only had time for one cocktail, but next time I'm coming prepared for at least two lol. Bartender was great and answered all my questions. Loved that he took his time to make the drink taste and look good.

It was myself, my wife and 2 boys and my in laws on the patio and we all loved it all! I have celiac and had ZERO issues with the food. The Scallops risotto was effing incredible one of the best I've ever had. The shrimp app was so good as well as the GF bread. They raved about the regular bread and oil and the zucchini flowers and calamari and the sauce that came with it! The ossobucco, spinach ravioli, and lasagna they all said were amazing! Such a great experience! A must!!!

Stopped by for lunch on a weekday with a friend. Since it was a nice and sunny day out, they sat us…read moreoutdoor. The food was really delicious, I had the fettucine balongnese, and they had a pizza. Both of which are more than enough for one person, because we had to take out our food. Very friendly staff. My one gripe about this location, and I'm not going to dock any stars for it because it's really dependant on the guests. But it's right in the path of where planes arrives at the San Diego International Airport. So if you're looking for a place to do business, or intimate lunches... be prepared to hear a jet plane landing every 30-60 seconds.

My most current visit pretty much is in agreement with my previous review. This was a convenient…read morespot for us to have dinner after walking around the waterfront area, and also dog-friendly. Even though it was prime dinner hours, we were seated within 10 minutes and the hostess was so nice. As I mentioned, prime dinner time so the wait staff was very busy, and there were 2 large parties seated by us. While they didn't have time for extended pleasantries before they had to bustle off, they seemed like seasoned pros and made sure our dinner service kept a good pace. The food here is always delicious and this night called for some pizza and spaghetti bolognese. I'll say that I love their pizza, especially the ones packed with meat and drizzle of spicy honey, plus the crust is just right. Their house wine also isn't bad and a decent price. The last item to mention is the restrooms. There is only one and tonight it was out of order. It makes it especially hard if it's after 9pm when everything closes. Nonetheless, Buona Forchetta is still one of my go-to's and I'm determined to try every one of their pizzas at some point!

All Aboard is a new charcuterie and provisions vendor in the Point Loma neighborhood. Its location…read morewas obscure because the suite was in the middle of a small, mixed residential and business complex on Shelter Island Dr. I drove past it the first time as the signage wasn't prominent. Only a few parking spaces were available out front, and they were shared with the neighboring businesses. Some countertop seating and a couple of long tables were set up for inside dining. Upon walking in, it felt like a combination of a cafe, deli, and wine bar. Two charcuterie boards and six Italian style sandwiches made up the food offerings. For beverages, wines by the glass, various beers, and wines/kombucha in a can were available. You can certainly place large orders ahead of time for catering and special events. The ladies who staffed the service counter were very cheerful. The choice for my to-go order was a Spicy Italian Muffuletta. The sandwich consisted of thinly sliced mortadella and Genoa salami, provolone, arugula, and a spread of muffuletta. A drizzle of olive oil and balsamic glaze was added on top along with salt and pepper. Freshly baked piabatta was the bread that was used. The item was neatly assembled and wrapped in wax paper before being sliced in half. The spread was savory while the bread was soft with a crunchy exterior. As a bonus, I was given a complimentary bag of Italian potato chips that were pesto flavored. I was glad to have those to munch on with the sandwich. Overall, I gave a 4.5 star rating for a very positive experience at All Aboard.

I've been enjoying Gianni Buonomo's wines for about 7 years now. I loved their tasting room OB. It…read morewas so cute and back-in-the-day, it was super fun to go to the OB Street Fair on Wednesday to pick up some food and then enJoy it with a glass of wine or two in the tasting room with other lively patrons. Brigitte was a very nice member of the business back then, and either Al or Keith was usually on hand to chat about the wines and other things in a friendly manner. My favorite wine was their version of Viognier & M's favorite is the Symphony. (Neither one of us is big drinker.) Last year, they moved to new location on Pickett Street. It feels smaller and more cramped than their previous space but it is decorated nicely and has a small dedicated parking lot. It is also in a very industrial area, and a bit out of the way. For me, it's not super conducive to hanging out. I can understand the reasons for moving, but it definitely impacted the ambiance, imo. Today, we picked up a bottle of Symphony from Al to take home. There were a few patrons inside enjoying their wine on a rainy Saturday afternoon. Gianni Buonomo is a special and unexpected winery that is definitely worth experiencing. Their wines have won multiple awards and Keith & Al are super knowledgeable and amicable.

On a Thursday afternoon, there were a couple of other winery members picking up and tasting wines when we got there. We did a red wine flight and tried a varietal we have never had before (Lagrein) of two different years. They source the grapes from Washington State and California (Sierra foothills and Amador county). All of the wines we've had was very enjoyable. You can taste the care and thoughtfulness that goes into their wine making process. Very chill atmosphere and conducive to an enjoyable taste experience. There's a nice parking area for tasters right in front of the wine shop.
