    We really enjoyed going to LaMesa. The pizza was excellent. The restaurant was clean (which was a huge plus). They were really friendly. Definitely kid friendly. There's ample parking, so no need to worry about that. We enjoyed it and would recommend you going.

    Margarita and pepperoni slices

    Nice place and nice employees. Pizza was not so good. Crust was more like bread than a pizza crust. Toppings and cheese were nothing special. I had high hopes with the overall rating. I won't be going back.

    BBQ Slice
    Jack M.

    La Mesa Pizzaworks is the new kid in town. Not only that, but they are also a Kosher supervised by the San Diego VAAD. I didn't get a whole pie, but some slices to try a variety. I tried the margharita, the BBQ, the "I can't not believe it is pepperoni" slice. All the slices were great. I was particularly fond of the BBQ sauce on one of the slices. I learned it is a house made kosher sauce, and it's delicious! It's definitely a keeper. The plant based pepperoni was great, too. It is a little on the think side, but that promotes a good chew. Its flavor was spot on, and their mind and palate registered pepperoni indeed. The Margharita slice was good, too. The sauce was tasty, and the basil was fresh. The crust on all their pizzas is slightly bready and could use a little chew, in my opinion. It is a very good house made kosher crust. They offer a good amount of inside seating. The menu consists of pizzas, leafless salads, appetizers, soups, pastas, and my favorite: calzones, which I look forward to trying on my next visit. The service was very friendly.

The lighting was on the bright side but the atmos was old school for sure. I had friends that had never been so the great menu hunt was on. They settled on chicken cacciatore and pasta. They said it was yummy and ticked all the boxes. I had a late lunch so I had The Alps / sausage, meatball, peppers in a red sauce then covered with cheese and baked. So good. Our server was very friendly and kept our ice teas filled which is always a good thing. It photos as my friends and I were having to good a time talking but Lisos is a good solid place.

A gastro-adventure straight to the snack aisle of your nearest convenience store. Let's start with the hors d'oeuvres, or as Lido's likes to call it, "a chef's journey into the heart of the '90s lunchroom." Picture this: a plastic ramekin filled with precisely seven Cheez-It crackers (yes, I counted) and a square of Lunchables cheddar. No garnish. No flair. Just the unapologetic crunch of nostalgia and the slightly sweaty texture of processed cheese. Très magnifique! The waiter presented it with such flourish you'd think he'd just handed us the Mona Lisa of appetizers. "Our finest pairing," he said, without a hint of irony. I half expected him to pull out a Capri Sun and pierce it for us tableside. I politely asked if this was a joke. His response? "That's how we keep it casual here." Casual? Sir, this isn't casual; this is culinary gaslighting. The rest of the meal wasn't even worth salvaging. The breadsticks were cold, the pasta was overcooked and drowning in bland marinara, and the tiramisu was a soggy mess that tasted like someone spilled coffee on a sponge. But honestly, after the snack attack that was the starter, everything else just felt like a backdrop. The only redeeming part of the evening was the exit, where I got to share a knowing, pity-filled glance with another couple clearly wondering if they'd accidentally wandered into the wrong restaurant. In summary, if you're looking for a unique dining experience that will have you laughing, crying, and questioning your life choices all at once, Lido's is your spot. Just be sure to BYOP--Bring Your Own Pepperoni. Apparently, that costs extra. Lido's isn't Italian--it's an insult.

I love the concept--pizza on one side, incredible sandwiches and gelato on the other, all connected to a fully stocked Italian market. It's the kind of place where you can grab lunch, dessert, and authentic Italian groceries all in one stop. The staff was welcoming and friendly from the moment we walked in, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. The Meatball Sandwich is an absolute must-try packed with flavor and perfectly made. The Signature Sandwich was another standout because it's something different from your typical Italian sandwich. It had its own unique flavor that really sets it apart. I didn't get a chance to try the pizza this visit, but if the sandwiches are any indication, I already know I'll be back for it soon. The only small downside is that the parking lot is a little tight, especially during busy hours, but it's well worth the minor inconvenience. Overall, this place exceeded my expectations. Great food, friendly service, fair prices, and a unique setup that makes you want to keep coming back. This has definitely earned a spot on my regular rotation. Highly recommend!

    Best Breakfast Spot in La Mesa!…read more Centifonti's is such a cute and cozy, family-style restaurant and bar that truly has something for everyone. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and as if that wasn't enough, they also make homemade candy, caramel apples, and gelato. It's honestly a one-stop shop for everything your stomach craves! From the moment I walked in, I noticed how clean and tidy the restaurant is. Every table is decorated with an adorable sunflower-themed artistic vase, which adds such a cheerful, welcoming touch. There are also multiple TVs showing sports, so sports fans will definitely feel right at home. Our waitress was so kind, attentive, and professional, which truly made the experience even better. Parking is easy to plan for as there are parking meters lined up along the street in front, since it's located right in downtown La Mesa on La Mesa Boulevard. Everything about this place feels just right from the atmosphere to the attention to detail. Perfection all around. Hands down, the best breakfast place ever!
