The pizza, the lasagna, the wine, the cannoli, the service - it's all amazing! The owner is so personable - giving recommendations on wine and food and sharing his story. The overall experience and ambiance surpasses any other pizza place. A must try!

This place gets really busy on the weekends so if you get something to go and it's not ready yet be ready to step aside so you don't block the doorway. We ordered the prosciutto pizza. It was really flavorful but the pizza crust was burnt in many places :-/. We will def give it another try!

Had a great experience at Ambrogio15 in Pacific Beach! We ordered three pizzas--Four Cheese, Burrata and Prosciutto, and Margherita. The service was attentive, and the food didn't disappoint. The crust was thin and perfectly cooked, and all the ingredients tasted super fresh. Definitely worth a visit for quality pizza lovers!

Enjoyed a lovely meal here last night. We were able to be seated immediately without a reservation at around seven for two. Everyone was very friendly and it seemed like they had a lot of regulars they build rapport with. You can also bring your dogs to eat on the outside tables with you. We ordered the lasagna and pizza Mediterranean. The lasagna was some of the best I've ever had. The meat was very tender and the pasta itself cooked well. Note that it's not very saucy so if you prefer a lot of sauce this might not be the dish for you. We were told that for the pizza the cheese would not be cooked with it, which was fine. We didn't realize that the olives and tomatoes would also not be cooked with the pizza. The pizza itself was also cold. Despite that, the crust had good flavor. I was not impressed by the pizza we had but I am excited to come back and try out more dishes !

Super accommodating for large groups. The staff are amazing, super nice and make sure you're taken cared of. The food. So bomb, literally the best lasagne and pizza I've had. It taste v authentic. The spritz are soooooo bomb. Like tasty and light. Not too boozy. The pizza portions can def serve 2 but that's if you like light meals. One for one is way too heavy for sure. The lasagne is def one person meal but soooooo sooo amazing.

We went here for some mid-upscale Neapolitan style pizza. The food itself was pretty good, we got the spicy salami pizza and the meat/cheese board. The service was very slow and we were often ignored. This meant that we were frequently low on water, especially when our food arrived. It was not busy at all, we arrived about an hour before close on a Sunday. The bathroom is located in a weird place. You have to go around the side of the restaurant outside to a door after the kitchen.

This was one of the best restaurants I've ever tried in my entire life. I don't know if I've ever had a better pizza, and I have been to countless Pizza & Italian restaurants. I don't give 5 stars unless a place has truly deserved it, and this restaurant definitely did. Amrogio15 has many locations around the SD area, we personally visited the one located in Pacific Beach. The atmosphere was the perfect blend of upscale and casual, and the distressed wooden walls and bright red chairs really gave the place a modern Italian vibe. The food was absolutely phenomenal. We started with bread and the Fried Calamari. The bread was perfect and the Fried Calamari was perfectly cooked, crispy, and came with 2 absolutely delectable dipping sauces. We also split a Insalata Della Casa (house salad) which was the perfect fresh palate cleanser in-between courses. The pizza, however, stole the show. My parents got the Margherita Pizza which they really enjoyed. I had a bite and it was amazing. However, I think mine was even better. I got the Salamino Piccante, which is mozzarella, salami, rosemary, garlic olive oil and grated parmigiano. It was one of the best pizzas I've ever tried in my life, the crust was the perfect thickness and the cheese and sausage were so flavorful. We ended with the yummy Crostata Frutti di Bosco that was topped with ice cream that tasted homemade. We will definitely be back when visiting SD, and definitely will be checking out the PHX location.

Buono! No complaints here. Loved the pizza parmigiana, mediterranean spritz, tiramisu and cappuccino. They import dough from Italy to make their pizza crust which is thin, crisp around the edges, yet chewy. The parmigiana pizza was cheesy comfort food with eggplant. The cocktail was light and refreshing with a slight bitterness from the white vermouth. The tiramisu was sweet and creamy with a hint of hazelnut. The cappuccino was well made and a good way to end dinner. It was a satisfying and delicious meal. The restaurant was quaint with a comfortable ambiance. The wait staff were friendly and there were no issues with service. There were a few customers who stopped by for takeout orders. Each took away a few boxes of pizza so it is a popular place. The menu is extensive and definitely worth returning for.
