    First time visiting Cacio e Peppe and we are definitely coming back. They have a kids menu which is very practical for families. My kids loved their pasta! Everything we tried - salad, bread, pasta, wine - was delicious.

    The food was delicious. My husband and I both had Cacio e Pepe, shared a delicious salad and Canolli for dessert. Our server, Sophia, was very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this place.

    The food was delicious;however the service was a little slow (seemed like our waitress was more interested in socializing with bar patrons than serving her tables) and the music was too loud. This isn't enough to make me stay away because the food was so good but I may consider take out rather than dine in next time.

    This was our first time dining at Cacio E Pepe. We expected it to be good, but it was way beyond that and is now our favorite Italian restaurant in San Diego. From cocktails to dessert, everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. The service was helpful and attentive and the restaurant itself is absolutely darling. We can’t wait to go back! PS The Cacio E Pepe pasta is the best we’ve ever had!

    We totally enjoyed our dinner. It is a small comfortable venue and is a local gem. We started with Caesar salad and bruschetta which were both excellent. My husband ordered chicken parm and I ordered cacio Pepe pasta which we thoroughly enjoyed. The service was attentive and friendly. We will definitely be returning in the future
