BICE - San Diego

Located in the heart of San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter, BICE diners immediately feel the welcoming atmosphere. A soft, muted color-palette accented with dark wood paneling is complemented by modern furniture that creates both a cozy and luxurious feel. The menu changes weekly and includes Antipasti courses such as a thinly sliced mosaic of octopus; fresh salmon, sea bass and tuna tartar. BICE is known for its homemade pastas and these will include veal ravioli in porcini sauce, potato gnocchi and BICE’s famous Pappardelle Al Telefono or wide ribbon pasta with cheese, basil and tomato sauce. Main courses will feature grilled New York steak sliced and served with arrugula, breaded veal Milanese chops pounded thin, and whole striped seabass roasted with garlic and rosemary on a bed of potatoes. As a special treat to guests who love the authentic taste of Italy, BICE features a sophisticated Cheese Bar which offers a variety of Italian cheeses and salumi plates.

"I never thought Italian food could be so elegant until we ate at Bice. This restaurant will be a new special place for us. The staff were knowledgeable, courteous and attentive without being over bearing. You must try their home made pasta, absolutely divine!"

"It had been almost 2 years since my last visit to Bice. While the food and service were excellent (the specials always seem to hit the mark and the waiter recommended a truly excellent bottle of Italian Sauvignon), I was taken aback by the overwhelming noise level that made normal conversation nearly impossible. Hopefully, this was only a case of bad timing (there seemed to be MANY large groups present), but I am not in a particular hurry to return."

"Appetizers came out before drinks
Burrata was tasteless
Bronzino had a sauce like cream of mushroom soup
Brussel sprouts were uninspired
Scallops were okay but sauce was congealed and flat flavored

"One of the most authentic and sophisticated Italian restaurants that my wife and I have dined at in the US. BICE San Diego immediately reminded us of the best restaurants in Rome. The food is delicious, the wines are not overpriced, and the staff are attentive and knowledgeable. Our waiter Stefano is a true professional. We can't wait to return to San Diego's Gaslamp District to dine at BICE."

"Food was great, spectacular wine, and the atmosphere is nice and romantic,, what put a damper on date night was the $8 up-charge for my wife ordering a difference sauce for her pasta dish because she couldn't have the cheese sauce as she is pregnant. The server mentioned it is because the chef doesn't allow changes to the menu. Who knew that switching the sauce to a tomato sauce would be so difficult. The up-charge was clearly an indication of the chef throwing in a jab to make up for his hurt ego. It wasn't the price that bothered me but the concept, they should have happily made an exception and maybe thrown in a congratulations, any fine restaurant with a bit of hospitality would have done just that. Not a great first impression."

"This is one of the best restaurants in San Diego! You will be hard-pressed to find a nicer staff anywhere. They really round out an amazing experience. The cheese bar is second to none. The 4 page cheese menu is complimented by assorted spiced meats and olives. Your cheese order is brought out by a cheese specialist who describes each selection's attributes. The wine and entrees just get better from there. Whenever I need a fantastic meal, fine atmosphere, and spectacular experience, I go to Bice!"
