Acclaimed Sicilian Chef Accursio Lota serves up authentic cuisine in a cozy 60's-style Italian trattoria. Voted San Diego's Best Chef five years in a row, and Barilla’s World Pasta Champion, at Cori Trattoria Chef Lota serves up beautifully bold dishes like Agnolotti with Spring Peas and Beef Bone Marrow, and an unbelievably rich Vegan Parmigiana di Melanzane. The menu melds the flavors of Sicily and Italy with the best of fresh, locally-sourced Southern California ingredients, and is matched by a curated wine list and cocktail program that include indigenous, bio-dynamic varietals from all Italy.

The current Spring menu features dishes like Agnolotti with Spring Peas, fava bean, and beef bone marrow, and Cacio e Pepe with sustainably-sourced Petrovich caviar.

Enjoy full-service table seating, grab a place at the marble-topped bar, from which you can watch all the action of your meal being prepared in the open kitchen or just order your meal to enjoy at home with your family.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Accursio Lota

From the OpenTable editors: At this colorful Italian restaurant, even the light fixtures are styled like pasta shapes. That delicious backdrop sets the stage for chef Accursio Lota’s soulful Sicilian dishes; many of his pastas are based on a special mix of flours made with ancient grains from Italy, including spaghettoni with seafood carbonara, plus thoughtful gluten-free and vegan options.

Amazing, as usual. This was my 2nd speciality dinner at Cori Pastificio. Acursio and staff always excel at service, food, creativity. From the cocktail to the plates and the wine pairings--excellent, and we learned about the creativity of local chefs using local seafood and local people to present beautiful and delicious food.

The food was amazing especially the house made focaccia and the tiramisu. The mocktails we ordered was a bit disappointing, but overall food was great. The ambience is cozy

First time dining here and it was spectacular! Our server Austin was the best and took such great care of us. I have food allergies and he went through the entire menu and also checked with the chefs to see what would be best. The food was absolutely delicious and my girlfriend and I cannot wait to come back!

The staff was excellent from the beginning, and they made sure to make the evening special because it was our anniversary. They not only congratulated us but also gave us Prosecco and a card saying Happy Anniversary (and the staff all signed it). The food was amazing, very traditional and handmade. We will definitely be coming back…it is our new favorite Italian restaurant!
