Giovanni's Italian Sandwich - Encinitas

I have to tell you about this original Italian restaurant in Encinitas CA. If you go to this place, enter the kitchen to get to the dining room. Owner Vito, a Sicilian cook with 25 years experience that lets you feel at home right away, welcomes you immediately. In addition to the traditional dishes cooked in every Italian restaurant by who knows who, here you get these fantastic specialties that this cook comes from some of old family recipes. This is not a beautiful place, but the quality and freshness of the food far beyond the dishes I had rated in other top restaurants. the baked Rigatoni with sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, mushrooms and pesto sauce; You can add chicken if you want is really delicious. The veins and shrimps Napoletana, Linguini Pasta has looked with fresh mushrooms and garlic, it is so good! Actually, one of my favorite things that let me return to this restaurant is that you are encouraged to order the menu. This is likely why so many Hollywood types and pro athletes go there.
