Reviews for Lorna's Italian Kitchen in San Diego, CA
It?s an old school mom and pop Italian restaurant. My personal favorite is the tag bowl with a Caesar salad. I highly recommend... coming here for comfort food! There is a credit card fee that they have graciously posted about so that is fair warning. Enjoy! Read more
Lorna's is one of those places that if all you do is drive by, you might blow it off as not worth your time. But it is! I am... currently on a tour of their menu as my wife and I are coming here a minimum of once each week. The Tagliattele Bolognese isthck and hearty. The Chicken dishes, my favorite, are a party on your palate. They offer Florentine, Picada, Marsala and if youare lucky you will arrive on a day when they offer the special Marsala with spinach and crumbled gorgonzola. Very rich but sosatisfying. Lasagna, cream sauces and fish plates Oh My! And don't forget their salads, sides and desserts. Wonderfulmeatballs the size of a softball but still melt in your mouth kinda wonderful. Salad dressings with a bright vinegairette andthe Tiramisu is a nice finish. As for the staff, they are truly the ones who make this a place to return to over and overagain. Read more
Caesar salad was just ok. The taste of olive oil was too strong and the salad was over dressed. Garlic knots were very good.... Meat ball was delicious. Small place but very nice and friendly wait staff Read more
The food is awesome. Attendant not polite. I went here Sunday 6:00 pm August 07th to pick up an order and she was ignoring me.... Also she threw the food on me, I almost dropped it on the ground. Also kept looking at me like I was an alien. I always feel notwelcomed at this restaurant. Not going back again! Read more
Their outdoor dining area is sort of communal, I like but others might find it off putting. The servers are all very friendly... and informational. They play opera which is so authentic. The food is good, large portions. Read more
Great pizza and pasta. The portions and massive and the service was great !
A nice American Italian restaurant! I reccomend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys a classic Italian experience! The food was... simple but delicious! The only negative about the menu was the limiting vegetarian options, the menu didnt offer many vegetarianoptions and no vegan options. The complimentary bread was great as well! I highly recommend the garlic knots! The service wasgood. The wait time for the food took a normal amount. The place is pretty packed during dinner hours so keep that in mind ifyou are visiting with a group of people. I reccomend making reservations if visiting with 3 or more people. The pictures below:complimentary bread, alfredo pasta, and garlic knots! Read more
Love this place. The food is superb and be staff is friendly. The owner works there and helps his staff. He keeps quality as a... number one priority, and it shows. The place is casual comfort but the food is penthouse level. Read more
