Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Sorrento Mesa

Been to Baci Restaurant many times over the past 30 years. Always excellent service and menu choices. Will be back for again.

We cut a narrow path through the menu. She had a spicy margarita, I had the Oh Behave (a horchata/rum concoction that was most yummy). We split the queso fundido, and seriously, we could have stopped there, as we're apparently in our eat-like-a-bird era. But no, we plowed ahead, gorging on lobster tacos and enchiladas del mar--all of it was awesome and we each got down like three bites. These are not huge portions (nor are they small)--it is us, of woefully tiny stomachs. Oh well, go, go hungry. You'll be satisfied.

Our favorite neighborhood restaurant: great pasta, good pizza (crust a touch too thick to my liking), good happy hour, great value for pizza Tuesday, responsive service (special shout out to Olavo). and our favorite lasagna on "Funday" Sunday.

Food was delicious and service was very good, despite being quite slow. It’s a good place to go when you have plenty of time to enjoy your food and the company of your party. It’s a little on the pricey side. Ambience is nice and they have multiple space heaters on the patio.

It was a gorgeous setting and wonderful place for a nice birthday celebration. All was great at the restaurant but they did not have my open table reservation. I showed them my confirmation and calendar but some how the restaurant never got it.
