Eating Out-What's Hot and what's not!

So...This weekend we (Brian and I) were in San Diego and decided to hit the Gas lamp district for a yummy bite to eat. problem: Too many options. After an hour of nitpicking menus at the curb, we chose a rustic Italian bistro with a contemporary flare called Bella Luna. It was vacant besides a couple eating outside so we found ourselves a small table inside and decided upon crab cakes and a beet salad to get our taste buds going. For a main course we ate pear ravioli with marscapone cheese and meat lasagna. We both gave this restaurant 2 1/2 stars. The service was mediocre, especially since there were only one other table to be served. The appetizers were good. The crab cakes had a nice bite at least that's what Brian says! My beet and goat cheese salad was scrumptious! As far as the main course I was not liking it! It was boring and flavorless. Brian said the same for his lasagna! I think it boils down (pardon the pun!) to the bread! If the bread stinks so does the restaurant. And the bread here was nothing special! So if you find yourself cruising the streets of downtown san Diego, pass on this one!
