It was one of the most disappointing dinners of our trip. I'm giving the place three stars because the ambiance is warm, the pasta fresco red sauce was great, and the table-side tiramisu was fun and mascarpone not too sweet. But the pricing v portion sizes v tastiness was not ideal and there are better Italian places in San Diego. Squash blossoms - 1/5 - The best squash blossoms in town are at Cucina Urbana and Cucina Enoteca where the ricotta is piped into the blossom and the fritto misto frying (think Italian tempura) is perfect--you get the crunch of the delicate petals and leaves, the creaminess of the ricotta, and the satisfying zucchini finish. At Cesarina, the blossom is flattened into submission so you don't get the delicate bite of the petals. You get a fried disc of flour. You then use the "blossoms" like a greasy, bland potato chip that you eat with a freakin gobful of ricotta. This was a poorly conceived dish. Polpo Crocante - 2/5 - The octopus was grilled to a good texture--not too chewy. But it came out to us room temperature/cold, apparently having sat at the pass for too long. The romesco sauce was tasty. Cesarina Salad - 1/5 - flavorless and not enough oranges. Moving on to the pastas. The pasta noodle itself was very very good. But the sauces were almost universally disappointing. I wanted to add more pecorino, Parmesan, and/or lemon/tomato to everything for acidity, zing or umami. Pomodoro Fresco Spaghetti - 5/5 - best dish of the night. The spaghetti is almost translucent and the tomato sauce was very fresh and not overdressed. Kids' Fettucini Alfredo - 1/5 - this was bad and bland. It lacked the sharpness and flavor of any cheese. Like eating gobfuls of unflavored creamy cream. Overdressed and drowning in cream. Funghi - 2/5 - we got this with the mafaldine, which was a good shape. But the funghi sauce was like the Alfredo. All cream, no umami even from the mushrooms and definitely not from any cheese. Pacherri Vodka and Scampi - 3/5 - pink sauce with almost no taste of tomato. Like all the other cream sauces, it was underwhelming. The shrimp was good but there was only one. If I were to come here again, I would stick to the fresco sauce and avoid any cream sauces (they love their ricotta and mascarpone but need to embrace their pecorino and Parmesan. I might also try the arrabiatissima. Cesarina is overrated.
