    Excellent ambiance, wonderful food, considerate and prompt service, and all with a personal touch. We had the rib eye and short rib canneloni pasta for entrees and shared a gem lettuce salad. The bread and dipping sauce were a perfect starter. I have been to Piatti LJ many times* but it was my partner's first experience (we came to celebrate his milestone birthday). He felt very special and celebrated, but in a low key and sincere way. Our server was gracious and professional, the heat lamps made a chilly spring evening on the (charming) back patio very comfortable, and our cozy table was quite romantic. Highly recommend -- 5 stars all the way. *A very good location for business meetings and friend gatherings as well!

    This is a restaurant in a beautiful neighborhood that has always been nothing more than average over many years. It is consistent, never bad nor better than average. There are many better choices in the greater San Diego area as well as La Jolla.

    I used to like it here, but it’s turned into an overpriced tourist trap. They only offered a dinner menu for lunch. Mediocre re-heated pasta for 2 with no alcohol or desert for $100. Never again!

    Art, We're sorry to hear that your recent experience didn’t meet expectations. We always aim to provide great value and quality, so we’ll definitely take your feedback into account as we continue to improve. We do have a lunch additions menu that we serve until 4pm, and we will work closely with our staff to ensure that is more clear going forward.

    Excellent experience all the way around ! ! ! Only concern was increase in noise level as other diners filled the tables. Recommend using better sound abatement inside.
