Beef Lasagna, same recipe from our chef since 1988!!

My grandma showed me love through homemade pasta. Now I’m doing the same for my family. She may be gone, but her recipes aren’t — and I’ve finally embraced making them my own.

Reviews
The marinara sauce is the best we've found in San Diego. We are continually meeting people here who have frequented Italy and come back to Little Roma again and again.

Best Italian food I’ve had in years! Service was impeccable! I am obsessed with Italian food; this place did not disappoint!! My gnocchi was fantastic, the spinach and artichoke dip is amazing, the garlic bread is so good! My husband is super picky about his Alfredo, but he raves about this one! Even my picky kids loved the food. My daughter usually eats plain noodles, but even she loved their pomodoro sauce! Definitely recommend! Must try.
