Worst service/dirtiest restaurant in San Diego

4 of us went to this place for drinks and appetizers and were "snubbed and refused service" by the rude bartender and the sarsastic unprofessional staff. We had taken our bikes on the ferry to ride and were not wearing suits, so we were ignored until we were angry and upset and some local patrons intervened and talked to the manager, who could have cared less. I would encourage anyone to never go to this horrible restaurant. My rating Negative 2

4.0 of 5 stars. It's Il Fornaio...you know the meal will be fine. What I'm going to say is nothing new here: if you've got visitors in town, this is a great place to go for the view alone. The interior is very cozy...

2.0 of 5 stars. Dined here with work friends. Food was excellent, but service sucked. I ordered a lamb shank, and got a rack of lamb. Ordinarily, a great trade, but not what I wanted. I kept asking the server if...
