Literally some of the most elegant, decadent and delicious desserts in San Diego! So yummy and a must try! ### gisellelelux — 5.0/5 · Mar 1, 2025 This gelato is so fresh! ### kimme02 — 5.0/5 · Jul 27, 2025 Ordered takeout of the pepperoni pizza, four cheese pizza and the house salad. Everything was fresh and delicious! ### eatyourbizzir — 5.0/5 · Feb 14, 2026 Love a cafe that's not only open early but has savory options! Came here for a little treat V-Day breakfast and had my Valentine's chocolate in the form of their Nutella cappuccino and my morning protein in their spinach artichoke quiche. Bellissimo! ### san_diego_foodie — 5.0/5 · Feb 20, 2026 I love eating here. It’s a few blocks away from my house so I can walk to it and the food is always delicious! Staff is extremely friendly and go above and beyond to serve the community. All the food is super freshly made, and the gelato is a mess. This isn’t the first time trying the chocolate tour and it was so good!!! ### eatyourbizzir — 5.0/5 · Apr 10, 2026 This menu is stacked! Gelato, pastries, pizzas, calzones, and the espresso menu feels truly Italian coffee shop authentic. ### run_dont_guac — 5.0/5 · Apr 24, 2026 Love the atmosphere here while I work. Great coffee drinks, food and dessert! 🍨 ### maria_is_hungry — 5.0/5 · Nov 28, 2020 Stopped in for #breakfast and #coffee at this #kensingtonsd #cafe #caffe #coffeeshop. #Outdoordining #patio only for now and they are #dogfriendly as well. They have #heatlamps too, as it’s getting cooler. #Gelato, #pastries, #desserts, as well as #wine, #sandwiches, and a few Italian groceries. The #smokedsalmon croissant was really good with the balsamic glaze, and their coffee was delicious. I like this place for a quick bite. ### bldymryobsessed — 4.5/5 · Oct 15, 2022 Oh my……lawd @ohmycakecali !
