Bianchi Pizza & Pasta
★ 4.3 · 42 reviews San Diego Opened 23 May 2025
Palermo-trained pizza at the Bahia Resort
Bianchi Pizza & Pasta opened on 23 May 2025 inside the Bahia Resort Hotel on West Mission Bay Drive. Ignazio Tagliavia, born in Palermo, runs it; his CV goes Italy, Egypt, New York, Los Angeles, Miami, then Elvira in Ocean Beach.
The oven is a Marra Forni that runs to 950 degrees, which is the number that separates this from hotel pizza. He has slung slices for the Ferrari team in Miami, if you want a sense of the register.

The manager and staff at Bianchi really saved our group this week! We were a group of 30 who placed a catering order from another vendor that never showed up. We had 30 hungry people and they were able to turn out 15-ish pizzas, boxes of caesar salad, focaccia bread, and tiramisu last minute within about an hour. I really appreciate their flexibility and we will definitely just go there first next year. One person got the clam pasta on their own and said it was great as well. The tiramisu was huge and easily cut into quarters to share which worked out for our situation.

Unless you’re staying at the Bahia you’ll never know this place is here! We found it accidentally while bike riding and I’m so glad we did! The restaurant is quaint and serves excellent food! The pizza crust is amazing and the ingredients used are top notch! The meatball appetizer was delicious and the warm marinated olives were divine- partly due to the pizza crust/foccacia bread served with it! We had two appetizers and happy hour wine shared a pizza and a desert. We are stuffed and happy about it!

We had a wonderful “Date Night” at Bianchi Pizza & Pasta. We are always looking for a great restaurant in our neighborhood and we definitely found one last night. Our server Sophia was great she was attentive, very efficient, with a welcoming sweet disposition. Being a server myself for many years I see myself as a pretty tough customer. The food was so GOOD!! We had meatballs, Cesar salad, and pizza. The whole meal was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend Bianchi Pizza & Pasta to anyone looking for very delicious Italian Restaurant.

We are spending the weekend at Mission Bay and we did not feel like driving for dinner. The restaurant was just 15 minutes walking distance away from we are staying, and it is definitely the best restaurant within the surrounding area. Having said that, the pizza came out a bit less than ideal. The antichoke and olive made the pizza salty and soggy, but other than that, we had a very good dinning experience.
