Great Italian Food
Friday, September 8th, 2006If you are looking for wonderful, authentic Italian food in North San Diego County then look no further than Trattoria I Trulli. Located in the seaside town of Encinitas, Trattoria I Trulli is a small restaurant with tons of charm, great food and very reasonable prices. The tables are placed close together and the restaurant gives you the feeling of being in Europe, where smaller and more tightly packed restaurants are the norm.
The service has been good on all of our visits and the food excellent. The wine list offers a nice combination of Italian and world wines and the Italian beer is great.
Bread is brought to the table and served with a tomatoe sauce for dipping that is full of garlic, so make sure everyone at the table has some. But don’t eat too much - the entres are a good size and you’ll want to make sure you have room to finish them.
Trattoria I Trulli offers a dinner specials menu in addition to their standard fare. The specials change often and are variations on their popular dishes. Try the Gnocchi - very flavourful and cooked perfectly. On the main dinner menu, make sure you try the Cappellaccci Di Zucca. This raviolli is filled with butternut squash and served with a wonderful tomatoe sauce and brown butter.
Make sure you leave room for desert. The Italian deserts are very good and are perfect for enjoying a tea or coffee while you relax and chat with your dinner companions, savouring the art of cooking and baking that is Trattoria I Trulli.
