Best Authentic Restaurants in Rancho Santa Fe

We had the salmon and cioppino entries, while our kids ordered marinara spaghetti with meatball and pasta Alfredo from kid’s menu. Also ordered a bruschetta side. The salmon and cioppino were great! Very pleased with food but even more with service. One of her kids has a peanut allergy and asked about p anutsbin the pasta when placing the order. We later ordered the bruschetta, butforgot to ask if it has any nuts however, we were very pleased that when the server brought the side, he mentioned that the bruschetta only had pine nuts and almonds or walnuts. we were going to ask when he brought the side, but he anticipated our question! High five to the server team!!

Have always loved Rosina's and it has only gotten better over the years. We really like the furnishing in the new room across the patio. With the original room, the patio and the new room Rosina's has really gone to a new level. In the old days we enjoyed Rosina walking around and talking to people but last night the place was so busy that she only had time to say hi. But that's okay...shows how popular it is. We also like the small personal touches. The hostess told my wife how she really liked her new hairstyle. Not only was that nice and thoughtful, it showed and warm and personal touch. And finally the food never disappoints. Don't worry about trying to choose the best thing on the menu. It is all great!!!

We heard that their gluten-free pizza was good. We were pleased to find that it was better than most we have tried in San Diego. Crust had better taste and better texture. As with most gluten-free crust it was more difficult than pizza dough to cut with a knife, but eating a slice held by hand worked very well. The menu was filled with choices. We liked the atmosphere at Buona Forchetta and we especially liked the attentive help we received as first time customers. We definitely will be coming back. Next time we will try the gluten-free pasta and gnocchi.

Always the best experience. Vittorio’s is part of our annual holiday traditions but that doesn’t mean we don’t come year round. Always a welcoming and prompt service from everyone there that makes you feel like family. Some of the most authentic and homey Italian food you can find in town!

What a find in the middle of Rancho Santa Fe! All the decorative lights on, quaint wood framed windows, protected patio out front- we chose a corner table inside, cozy crates of wine and poinsettias piled around, soft conversations from the tables, the gentle maîtred, the comforting waitress. What an ambiance. The Norwegian salmon and New York steak were special. Extensive wine menu. We loved the experience !
