Getaway in Carlsbad

A February 2000 trip to Carlsbad by dawsb36

Quote: A week stay with visiting family from Boston. My sister, her husband, and their son came to Carlsbad. My brother-in-law ran in the San Diego Marathon which is held in Carlsbad every year. We stayed in a timeshare in Carlsbad where I had exchanged a week.

very good food, nice atmosphere, reasonable prices and casual attire. Not noisy and you don't need reservations. We go there quite a bit when we want good food. Nice view of the ocean

Vigilucci’s Cucina Italiana Best of IgoUgo

Restaurant | "Vigilucci’s Cucina"

Quote:
Very good Italian food with all authentic Italian waiters. I think it was Northern Italy food, not the usual run of the mill menu. Across from the beach and a view of the ocean. Very romantic at night

We go there very often and like the different choices of seafood. There is quite a variety of fish to choose from, so that every time we go there I can have something different.
