Il Dandy provided a lovely dining experience to my date and I. The food is fresh and healthy, uncommon for an Italian eatery and most welcome. The food is delicious, inventive and each course and dish is complimentary in terms of presentation, texture and taste. The service is warm, friendly, and helpful. The decor is attractive, open and inviting. This is truly a wonderful addition to San Diego's food scene View all feedback.
What User doesn't like about Il Dandy:
We have had two great dinners at Il Dandy on weekends but our last dinner on a Tuesday night was not as good. First, the place was empty at Our food, pasta and red snapper, was overcooked. The meal was far too expensive for the quality of food View all feedback.
Stopped by as I restaurant hop around the area. We sat at one of the small tables by the bar. I can't remember our servers name but he was very nice. We ordered a Rustichella Pizza. It was soooo good and I washed it down with a glass of wine. The decor is beautiful and the servers are dressed nicely. Can't wait to return.
Sleek and elegant but comfortable decor makes this a great place for cocktails and bites. Interesting flavor and taste combinations served by helpful and knowledgeable staff. Operated by the family who own Civico in Little Italy Good deals during Happy Hour wines, Aperol spritz etc and snacks. Loved the calamari, olives and truffle pizza. Regular menu Is pricy. Indoor and outdoor seating. Tough competition across the street from Cucina Urbana.
If you're in San Diego you have absolutely to try this experience called Dandy, a new Italian restaurant with a menu very interesting, something different in the city. The atmosphere is relaxing, it's a modern space with a design that remind you the Mediterranean Sea, the fishermen, the sailors, and citation of 900 italians avantgarde. The food is delicate, I tried the tuna mozzarella, amazing, the octopus spiedino, the pizza crust is so tasting and light. I would recommend you the beefcheek ravioli with egg yolk and lemon and the salmon Al cartoccio. Service Is friendly and attentive and all this made our experience more than satisfactory!
This place completely knocked it out of the park on my business trip to San Diego. Modern Italian food in a casual atmosphere. Had the shrimp carpaccio and crusted rib eye special. It was so good and tasty. Service was fabulous. Overall great experience. Follow my foodie adventures @doctoreeat.
We had a family dinner here and everyone really enjoyed their food. It has a beautiful ambiance with white and blue and an open modern appeal. The wine was excellent and paired well with the food. Highlights from dinner were definitely the seasoned pork meatball antipasti in white cheese sauce and the paper steamed fish which was cut open tableside releasing steam and a delicious aroma. The beet risotto was tasty but certainly on the al dente side. The mixed seafood plate was also good and overall I'd definitely recommend the Italian style seafood here.
