- Ainee TinyOutubro 16, 2017This place at the corner of Laurel st and 5th ave. Is a must! Decor is absolutely stunning, awesome service, food outstanding. Pictured: mushroom and goat cheese pizza and ahi tuna crudo. Both delish
- sohailFevereiro 28, 2017Been here 5 times, everything is always so good. I tried the pesto pizza for the first time and it may very well have been the best pesto pizza I've ever had. The Brussel sprouts are also money!!
- BaharehAgosto 19, 2018I absolutely fell in love with this place! I was in shock that I found this gem in San Diego! The perfect ambience, food and wine! Gnocchi is amazing! The squid ink pasta is exceptional!
- Jon B.Novembro 24, 2017Fun Italian Restaurant with a great vibe, and solid wine list that will not bust the budget. The salmon was awesome, and the taste of the lamb pasta that I was offered was outstanding.
- Allen ShiuAgosto 22, 2013Everyone comes here for the short rib pappardelle, but it's CU's apps that make it a SD favorite. Get the polenta board, gorgonzola mousse, squash blossom, and the gnudi (order 2, they're that good).
- EaterAbril 23, 2013Three years after opening, this is still one of the toughest tables to get in town. The shareable, Italian-inspired menu is modern and accessible. [Eater 38 Member]
- ElisaAgosto 20, 2018Pappardelle was decent but I actually prefer the bucatini. Octopus was delicious as others have mentioned. It's a huge restaurant, lots of high table seating if you don't have a reservation.
- Kelsey SparrowFevereiro 4, 2018Incredible wine list that they sell at market price with a $9 corkage. The veal fell off of the bone. Everyone was wonderful, save for the gelato and sorbet sampler, whose flavor a bit overwhelming.
- Divya MulanjurJaneiro 31, 2015Amazing place! We had made reservations for a group and pre ordered a fixed menu. It was delicious. Go for the pizzas, wild mushroom cavatelli and short rib pappardelle. The tiramisu is to die for!
- RimaMarço 15, 2015Sat at the bar since it was super busy and still had a great experience. Bartenders very friendly & attentive. Get the sorbet sampler for dessert -- was AMAZING.
- Emily HayesMarço 28, 2018I had lunch there last week. Ambience, loved it. Cozy and rustic. Service, great. Food, out of this world. We split the squash blossoms, Brussels and lasagne. I'm still dreaming about them!!!
- John SchwartzMarço 21, 2018You can't really go very wrong with CU. The ambience, the food, the staff, the menu! Sure, it's a tad pricier but also a tad more worth it I have yet to find anything on the menu that is not appealing
- Megan GAgosto 9, 2016Favorite restaurant in San Diego. Gluten free friendly options too! Burnt brussels sprouts and Short Rib Papardelle are amazing!!
- Luke WhiteNovembro 30, 2014Get a family sized platter of the bolognese and pick out a nice big Zinfandel from the self-serve wine racks. Everything is delicious but if you're short on bolognese expect fork battles.
- Kimber B.Novembro 5, 2013Wow.... Amazing ambiance, hip place, food awesome, service great... Love, love, love the polenta!!! I will definitely be back and plan to make this a regular stop on my future San Diego trips!
- Parker MFevereiro 28, 2013By far one of the best meals I've ever had..the polenta board is phenomenal. Every dish we had was great. Cozy atmosphere, reasonable price, great staff. Look forward to new del mar location!

- The new wheat berry kale salad is amazing. I killed it in about 2 minutes, and even ignored my beer so I could keep shoveling bites into my mouth!
- Ailie ChangMarço 20, 2017Best thing here is the Polenta Board! I'm craving it all the way from New York! The Burrata + Prosciutto 'Caprese' is also a great starter.
- Djordje GrkovicAgosto 22, 2014The polenta lived up to the hype, and the octopus antipasti was grilled to perfection. Cocktails are quite delicious as well, especially their many takes on a negroni

- Amy CummingsMarço 2, 2019I found everything to be a bit pretentious, from the cocktails to the staff to the food.
- Sit at the bar, get some Italian wine, eat squash blossoms and enjoy the man candy that shall take care of you. No, seriously, great service. And lots of amari.

- Ant RamSetembro 24, 2012Eating ossabocca bone marrow & squash blossoms while listening to Florence & the Machine, I almost felt like a hipster. Find out which daily deal is right for you, free cork Sundays worked for me
- Paul EllisJaneiro 17, 2018We can't ever eat here without getting the polenta board. It doesn't matter exactly which meat it is for the day. It is always awesome.

- lori zitoJaneiro 3, 2011Busy place any night of the week... but worth the wait. Bottles of wine are retail priced, with a $7 corking fee. The beet salad is divine.My only complaint... the hummus has chicken broth in it!
- Gianna NebbiaSetembro 22, 2018Go with a group and order multiple different bottles of wine. Pasta was yummy- al Dente as it should be
