    The meet and greet was promptly inviting and their service on point. I went for the cheese wheel and it definitely did not disappoint. I opted for the parmigiana wheel they also have the Grana Padano. The pasta was perfectly al dente, giving the perfect bite as you coat it with the luscious creamy sauce. I will definitely be returning upon my next San Diego visit.

    We had a lovely time at Lala. We met the proprietor and thoroughly enjoyed the conversation. The food was very good. The atmosphere was very comfortable. The wine prices were a little too high. But highly suggest the espresso martini. Would like to see more vegan options available.

    We celebrated a birthday here and we are glad we did! The ambiance, drinks, food, and service are always great at Madison. We brought in a cake for a birthday and the server put it in the fridge for us upon arrival and also put on the cake topper and candles before bringing it out to the table. Much appreciated and we will return!

    Overall a good meal. Somewhat limited menu options for sandwiches/handhelds. Otherwise, I'd recommend this spot.
