A few days ago, after a long morning of shopping, I went to have lunch at this unique and delicious restaurant in the downtown area of San Diego. Cucina Urbana  is a California inspired Italian restaurant, the menu is made with locally grown and seasonal ingredients, and it has become a “must” destination for any foodie in San Diego.

The Decor on the restaurant is the perfect background for the delicious eclectic food! A mix of rustic decor and Boho chic, with raw and sustainable materials found in the San Diego area.

Let’s begin with the food!
