About this business

Two strong names in San Diego dining—owner Ric Libiran and chef Brian Johnston—partnered up to create this casual but elegant restaurant which also caters to local families. The extensive wine list is offered both by the glass and half-glass, allowing for plenty of pleasant experimentation without going overboard on cost. Most entrées are neo-comfort food such as turkey meatloaf and a signature gourmet take on short ribs.

With the change in ownership the food is infinitely better. The owner goes out daily to the markets in town to find fresh specials.

You have to try the fresh from Italy Burrata and the homemade pasta, any pasta. We had the flatbed with homemade sausage and the peanut butter torte, both superb. This place is perfect for date night or lunch.
