This was my first time dining at The Godfather. The service stands out as really next level. We were celebrating my mother's birthday and the server really made the time special. Each of our party of 6 enjoyed their food. This is an upscale restaurant that serves a variety of traditional Italian dishes. I love eggplant parm and i loved their eggplant parm Definitely recommend.

We love Italian food and this place claims to be “original Italian food” and definitely happy with what we got. Everything came out fresh and hot so we loved every dish. The antipasto specially. The sauces were very tasty. The only thing is we got sat in the bar area and we didn’t love it, it was little too crowded and small, you don’t get to appreciate the place much over there. We made a reservation and thought it was in the main room.
The main room had the live piano and way more vibes and fun than the side we were on… it took a little bit to get our order thru but besides that everything was good. Valet parking only 4$+.

A wonderful Italian Food Restaurant tucked away in a commercial zone in Kearny Mesa in San Diego. The ambiance is intimate, warm, and welcoming. The waitstaff is attentive, friendly and efficient. The food selection is ample and delicious. I had the New York Steak and it was done perfectly, juicy and perfectly seasoned. The pastry selection is to die for. My favorite was the decadent Chocolate Cake.

Our server Juan is the best. He was great. Even the owner was there. 50 years and even better than I remember. The food was better than Rome. My only complaint Is the $75 specials and the $50+ wine selection.
We'd come back weekly but can't afford it.
The bill was $228.
And Tony Soprano would be disappointed because of the dress code. I saw a couple characters in the cowboy hats on and some guy walking in with shorts.

My husband and I had a date night and wanted to try new place and we come across this amazing hidden gems. From the customer service to their delicious food and drinks and to their amazing atmosphere with live piano playing in the background. We are definitely coming back here for more date night!
