Located in the quiet hub of culture known as San Diego's Little Italy, Trattoria Fantastica is one of the newest venues of the Busalacchi Family's growing list of San Diego Italian restaurants.
True to the definition of "trattoria," which means an informal restaurant that serves simple Italian fare, this rustic restaurant with country-style décor offers an intimate and authentic Italian dining experience with varying Sicilian menu selections modernized with trendy flair.
The dinner menu features nearly two dozen pasta dishes and entrees such as the Pollo Marsala, boneless chicken sautéed with Marsala and mushrooms, Vitello Piccata, veal sautéed with mushrooms, butter, lemon, and capers, and Spiedini Di Maile, pork tenderloin stuffed with breadcrumbs, pine nuts, and roasted tomato. Entrees range from $12.95 to $19.95. For pizza lovers, eleven specialty wood-fired pizzas are served, including the signature Rustica pizza with pesto, chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, and pine nuts.
Trattoria Fantastica's inviting outdoor patio is a perfect place to stop after an afternoon of shopping downtown or a day at the harbor, and the casual atmosphere is key. Reservations can be made for parties of 8 or more. Enjoy the abbondanza that is Trattoria Fantastica in San Diego's Little Italy.
