Second time we visit this restaurant. Not a fluke!! Enjoyed just one the first time. Dishes inspired by Modena flavors and culture. The beef ravioli is amazing. The wine selection is small, but delightful. Great lace to enjoy on a date, or with family…

Balsamico in Imperial Beach is a notch above all other Italian Food in the SouthBay. Great food with amazing service and fantastic drinks made this a favorite spot we will be visiting more often.

I was staying at Hampton Inn which is next door to this restaurant. So my dining arrangements were selected in most part, for it’s convenient location. However, I will be returning tonight because the food was absolutely outstanding. The service and atmosphere was so warm and welcoming. I highly recommend this wonderful dining experience. My first five star review, ever.

Food was good. Their balsamic is on the sweeter side but it’s good. Outdoor seating is clean and service was nice.

Great food, great service! Was able to practice speaking the little bit of Italian that I know with the waiter. Very welcoming feeling and friendly staff! The chef came out to greet everyone. The pesto risotto was good, the spinach and ricotta ravioli was fantastic! BBQ pizza flatbread is amazing!!!

Totally will be recommending to friends and family! Food was delicious and came out fast. Staff was so welcoming and helpful. And the restaurant felt very homey. If you decide to give this place a visit you definitely have to try their balsamic sauce and cappuccino’s!

This remarkable Italian restaurant had an authentic feel in comparison to Italy. My husband for the lunch special of personal pizza with side salad the house dressing was fresh, tasty and flavorful. The food was amazingly delicious and rosé wine was a spectacular choice from our server. My favorite dish was the chicken with fettuccini pasta. Our server was friendly and we would return again for a lunch or dinner.

Absolutely delicious! My partner who lived in Rome for years thought that it tasted very authentic. I loved my Bolognese and we also had the lunch pizza, a large speciality pizza and a hibiscus champagne. All of it was just fantastic and i can not wait to go back and try more!
