Who would think you'd find excellent Italian in old town La Mesa? We come down to visit our son at SDSU and have had an excellent dinner here every time we've visited. Ambiance, food and service have been excellent every time.

Wonderful food. Great Homemade Bread. Beautiful Frescos painted in dining room. Comfortable seating. Great location in the La Mesa Village.

One Friday evening, my daughter and I decided to try the Tiramisu Trattoria restaurant in La Mesa. The outside looked inviting and we were pleased with the inside decor and the attentiveness of being greeted and seated as soon as we entered the restaurant. I thought, "Wow, this is going to be a nice dining experience." Well, we were seated... More

We've just left Trattoria Tiramisu. Gerald was not only our waiter but the owner of the restaurant, he is truly top notch all the way. The food was delectable, the service was amazing not only by Gerald, but his busboy Carlos was the best I have ever seen in any service based business! We were just walking by the restaurant,...

Tiramisu Trattoria is a delicious restaurant. We've been to this restaurant many many times. Usually we have a whole meal from appetizer through entre (and if we can fitit, the flagship and amazing Tiramisu). The food is interesting, thought through, and shows innovation and a love for food. The Salad Tiramisu is a great way to start your meal -... More

Had dinner last night at the restaurant. Reservations are definitely a good idea if you are going during prime time (Friday night, 7pm). Place was full (a good sign). Service was a little slow, but not bad. Wait staff was working very hard to keep up. Would be better is they had just a few more employees, but it wasn't... More
