Cesarina Italian Restaurant Exploration in San Diego ✨

🐙 Crispy Octopus (with mashed potatoes & blended broccoli) 7/10 • Crispy outer layer • Smooth mashed potatoes • “Worth ordering but not unforgettable” 🍲 Seafood Pasta Pot (tomato broth) 8/10 • Pasta and seafood served separately • Refreshing tomato broth, not greasy • Includes large shrimp, clams, squid rings, mussels, and fish • Pasta is slightly creamy but perfect when mixed with the broth 🥩 Grass-fed Steak Combo • Steak itself: 10/10! Sides: 4/10 • Very tender at medium-well doneness • But the veggies and potato chunks had a "sea flavor" ➡️ Recommend ordering only the steak 🍅 Classic Lasagna 8.5/10 • Sauce is slightly tangy, authentic flavor • Very satisfying if you love the tangy aroma of tomatoes • Avoid if you’re sensitive to salty or tangy styles 🍞 Complimentary Bread 10/10 • Finished instantly upon serving—we had two rounds 😂 • One type had a cheesy savory aroma • The other, with onions, resembled naan • Truly delicious! 🍮 Tableside Tiramisu Performance • More fun than impressive • Made with very traditional ingredients • Average taste but worth a try ⸻ 🥳 Extra Experience Highlights! ✨ Everyone can choose their favorite unique dinner plate ✨ The staff also gifted us a Polaroid photo! ➡️ Bonus points for the sense of ceremony and fun ✅ ⸻ 💰 Final Bill: Three people + tip = $220 #SanDiegoFood #Cesarina #SDExploration #ItalianCuisine #DateNightRestaurant #Steak #Pasta #PhotogenicRestaurant
