Tavola Nostra Pizzeria e Cucina

Wow what a pleasant dinner. Dog friendly patio. Great servers. We ended up getting a bottle of wine, we did come for the pizza and we got 1 of each. Both fantastic. We also got the meatballs and a shirt. The tirimisu was so good as well! Its a space inside the plaza so parking can be annoying, but the food is worth it.

Amazing ambience and food. Very polite and friendly staff. We tried Pasta/Pizza/Fountain Soda/Soup of the day and Pinsa Romana (Patriottica). Must admit that Pinsa Romana was the highlight of the day. Such great play of flavors made the entire experience worth every penny spent here. This is a must visit place for anyone visiting San Diego.

Hands down, the best pizza in San Diego. The Alla Norma with house crushed tomato, eggplant, smoked mozzarella, burrata cheese, EVOO, basil is perfection. The crust is in a class by itself - imported flour from Italy, fermented to perfection and perfectly charred. The Caponata Siciliana appetizer is sautéed eggplant, olives, capers and pine nuts served w/ perfectly grilled bread. How many times have you ordered bruschetta that comes with reheated stale bread slices? Not here. The attention to detail is consistent in every dish. The eggplant parm is tender and flavorful and the house made sauce is fresh and well-balanced. You won’t find overly acidic, pasty tomato sauce here. If you long for mama’s tomato sauce, you just found it. The next time you want authentic Italian food but you can’t afford a trip to Rome, go to Tavola Nostra. It will become your newest culinary obsession.

We came for our 9 anniversary dinner and we were not disappointed. The atmosphere, the service and the food all 10/10. Food so good I ordered 2 plates! Ellee was super attentive, quick and gave great recommendations. She took great care of us and the owner Jeff has knocked it out of the park! Has become our favorite place and we will definitely becoming back!

This was our first stop since arriving in town. The wife and son had tried it on an earlier trip and wanted to share it with my daughter and I. This has got to be one of the best Happy Hours in San Diego. Everything was excellent including both the food and the service. It was a quiet evening and we enjoyed it very much. I hope to be back to enjoy the many regular menu food items.
