Neighborhood

Nestled beside the North San Diego Bay, Little Italy is a small neighborhood in Downtown San Diego that is true to its name. The area is filled with local restaurants and shops influenced by Italian culture or history. Previously home to families who made their living on the sea from the tuna industry, Little Italy is now a dynamic neighborhood filled with craft breweries, wineries, art galleries, boutique shops, alfresco cafes, urban parks, and award-winning restaurants.

Little Italy is a food-lovers paradise. A popular local spot since 1933, Waterfront Bar & Grill provides a casual dining experience to Little Italy residents and visitors. For an upscale Italian eatery, visit Buon Apetito. Try out nationally acclaimed eats featured in publications and on television at Extraordinary Desserts or Juniper and Ivy, a modern American fare in an artsy, wooded environment.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
