Best Pasta in San Diego
Pasta cravings hit differently in a coastal city. At Trattoria Don Pietro, we lean into Sicilian flavor—bright, citrusy, herb-driven, and just rich enough to make you think about ordering one more plate for the table.
A Sicilian point of view
Expect tomato, garlic, and chili, but also saffron, citrus, and seafood. The pastas here are built to feel sun-soaked and energetic: dishes you want to drag bread through and steal bites of from your friends.
Old Town’s energy adds to it—music, people-watching, and the feeling that you're slightly tucked away from the main drag.
Make it a pasta night
Build your evening around a spread of antipasti, a couple of pastas to share, and a bottle (or two) of wine. Finish with dessert and a walk through Old Town or up to Presidio Park.
