    After a recent trip to Italy, we were craving authentic pasta dishes. Trattoria da Sofia did not disappoint! Each of our dishes was delicious. My dish (our table favorite!) was the Pistacciosa. Great wine selections, spritzers and best, simple, authentic tiramisu prepared table side. We’ll be back!

    They are amazing! My FAVORITE server Jacob is so attentive and makes sure that our drinks NEVER hits the bottom of the glass! I've NEVER had a bad plate. From the full entrees, appetizers, pizza and their salads it has ALL been so good. Great ingredients and so flavorful. They have the BEST espresso martitinis. Soooo good! Giuseppe the owner is always there ensuring that he helps his staff run the place so smoothly and checking in on all customers. Thank so much!!

    The food selection at Mimmo’s Italian Village was outstanding! We ordered a Pastrami sandwich and the Fettuccine with clams and don’t forget the cheese bread! All was wonderful and made our last meal in San Diego before our flight a very memorable one.
