Romesco Mexiterranean Cocina – San Diego

Romesco Mexiterranean Cocina’s new location to Downtown Little Italy brings what Zagat referes to as “Fabulous, imaginative and upscale Mexican cuisine with Mediterranean accents”. Voted Best Mexican Restaurant in San Diego by San Diego Magazine for 3 consecutive years is a recognition not taken for granted by Chef Lalo’s forward-thinking cuisine created to be savored by both locals and visitors.

Without complexities or presumptions, Romesco is a simple-elegant restaurant dedicated to serving harmonic courses and diverse tapas based on color, taste, texture and aromas. Our first-floor level presents a lively, casual Spanish tapas barroom featuring an extensive menu and creative and colorful small plates amid Spanish ambiance. Bullfight paintings are just a sample of what you can expect surrounded by rustic furnishings that were designed to evoke a touch of Mediterranean flair. And if you want to enjoy a more relaxed-formal experience, move up to our second level, where a dining room of warm, dark wood will greet you, and you can step out onto our bar-terrace to capture the pulse of the city as you overlook downtown little Italy.

Here you can sip on one of our specialty cocktails, Baja California wines or regional craft beer from one of San Diego’s or Baja’s most acclaimed breweries.
