Tried it for the first time on a recommendation and was not disappointed! Everything was great, but I will say the garlic knots are the best I’ve ever had!!! The owners are there along with the employees and they are all so so friendly.

This food is everything you can dream of! This food is the closest thing to authentic food from the east coast. I am super picky and today I just wanted something that made me feel like I’m back home. I read the reviews and gave it a try. The lady who answered the phone was so friendly, welcoming and provided an amazing suggestion: grilled shrimp with veggies pasta. The portion was fantastic and quite large. The taste is of the heavens: garlic, wine, and butter The veggies cut fresh and cooked just right. The shrimp was grilled to perfection. The dinner special also came with salad and huge garlic knots. I am so happy I found a place where the food is incredibly fresh, portion is perfect and the price is amazing! I paid 58 bucks for two large dinners, huge garlic knots, two side salads, tiramisu, large soda and bruschetta. The service was top tier! I loved how I was treated by the lady at the front. It felt like home and I needed that. I can’t remember her name, but I remember her telling about the flower fields. Protect her soul at all cost! She’s a gem ❤️

Great family run place. Good Italian food. Not Michelin grade but honest neighborhood food. Locals love it. No atmosphere but nice folks. No reason not to try it! They deserve the business.

Pretty nice lunch stromboli calzone packed with goodies. The other menu items seem promising so I’ll visit again to give it another try.

This place is amazing! One of the best in san diego, their prices are also really good!! Great quality, taste, and my favorite is the cheese ravioli and garlic bread ! Everything here is good though ! Very authentic! Can’t wait to come back ! & thank you to Alfredo, who took care of our large 2 table group with 16 people

Ordered for pick up. Got the carbonara and spaghetti Genovese, garlic rolls, and soup. All was very very good. Had cheese cake (a good portion size considering shrinkflation) and cannoli. A wonderful finish to a fantastic meal. Food was so good, will be returning.

I work in the delivery Doordash. When I came to pick up my order, the staff said that it will be ready in 7 minutes, in the end I waited 26 minutes, the most unprofessional and unintelligent staff, I do not recommend it.

First time visiting Nucci’s Italian Cafe. Loved it!!! VERY generous portions especially for the price! We got a whole/massive order of calamari fritti for only $13. Loved our main dishes which was the Lasagne Bolognese & Eggplant Parmigiana. So good! Of course for dessert we got the cannolis. Best partof the experience was the service by the super friendly and attentive Daniel. Great food by the family restaurant. High recommend. We will definitely be back!!
