Little Italy’s Isola Pizza Bar is one of the best Italian restaurants in San Diego when you’re craving a hot slice. The La Jolla outpost is the second to open in town and this location is larger with a full kitchen with room for a fryer, grill and range. The new restaurant caters to a more leisurely crowd and the staff encourages diners to relax and spend an hour or two over a meal with a glass of wine. The focus here is on Neapolitan pies, but they also serve housemade pasta, fried appetizers and grilled items on the menu.
