Wow... what a gem in the Clairemont area of San Diego. I'm a designer who frequents this design row & for years we were wishing for a restaurant in this area. Chef Kurt & his team are amazing. He features delicious, fresh, and creative daily specials & soups. Perfect portions and creative plates that are very affordable considering the quality.
I've enjoyed a delicious Heirloom Carrot salad with a hint of Danish Blue Cheese to a Lamb BLT (they smoke lamb bacon on site). The Short Rib Sandwich is a mix of salty, savory & sweet. My wife and I have also enjoyed Sunday Brunch. She really enjoyed the Red Velvet Pancakes with chocolate chips (NO RED food coloring)!! I love the Smoked Salmon Benedict - brings back memories of the delicious Salmon in NY.
Cool, eclectic ambiance without the pretentiousness. The staff is friendly & they welcome you watching them through the "open kitchen." They've even planted the Organic Garden outside.
We hope others find out about this gem. Chef Kurt also owns Concept Catering by CK & has been known to do extraordinary events (still does).

We had met Chef Kurt & team a year ago as he catered my parents 50th Anniversary party. We were ecstatic to hear he opened up his new Bistro a few months ago.
This restaurant has managed to achieve a stylish, yet comfortable atmosphere. They really know what they are doing.
Best words to describe the Food: Comfort *Inspired* Gourmet - 2 sides of the coin: some "die in your mouth" decadent things like the Kobe Beef Patty melt with a pimento aged cheddar sauce covered with a Toasted Rosemary-Thyme bread, or a healthy Concept Salad with berries and nuts. My ten year old son loved the Bacon Leek gnocchi. My girls enjoyed the Raspberry Vanilla Italian sodas - the servers/baristas/Tearistas are great.
So happy they opened up in the Clairemont area. Looks like they definitely have a following. My kids loved learning about the produce/herbs outside in their Organic garden.
Will be back again for brunch - heard they started Sunday Brunch a few weeks ago.

Toscana Café & Wine Bar is not your normal café. Yes, it is quaint and yes they do have coffee, but it is much more than just your local hangout. The food, first off, is amazing. It has indoor and outdoor dining, for those that like to have the optio

It does have free wi-fi and it is a great place for kids or just buddies that want a nice slice of pizza and some beer. It is very loud and not a good idea for a first date. Their prices, in my opinion, are what keep customers coming back. Some say t
