Seneca

If you are in San Diego, there is a good chance you will eat Italian food at some point. The Little Italy area is one of the best in the nation, and possibly better than New York’s in my opinion. One of the best new restaurants in San Diego is Seneca. It is not located right in Little Italy but it is just a few blocks away on the 19th floor of the InterContinental Hotel. I have been here many times for dinner but as soon as they opened up for lunchtime I knew I had to go. It is much quieter during the day and you actually get to see the water from the rooftop views which is hard to see at night. The decor is beautiful and it truly feels like you have jetted off to the Amalfi Coast. Everything I have ordered here has been great so it is hard to choose a favorite. A must do though is their hand pulled mozzarella cart where the server makes the cheese right in front of you.
