The latest creation of sister restaurant Acqua al 2, Toast opens its doors in the up and coming East Village neighborhood in SD. Located a block away from the ballpark and across from Basic Pizza, Toast offers a small scale wine tasting experience. A modernized wine tasty venue, bottles are plugged into automatic dispensers, load up a refill card and taste by ounce or by glass.
But the interior decor, a modern rendition of a cool loft with concrete exposed walls, abstract art and low-lit light highlighting the reds, blacks and dark wood bins holding wine bottles. The food menu is focused.. salads, panini's, pizza and a handful of main plates.
The baby arugula salad with shaved Parmesan and cherry tomatoes was fresh, aromatic and drizzled with a good load of a light dressing, giving it a slight nutty flavor:
The wood fired pizzas are a must try. Flat thin crusted baked fresh to order pizzas have delicate crusts with bubbling burnt effects that give it an extra crunch. The pizza bianca came topped with fresh mozzarella, grilled guanicile, an Italian baco
n and potatoes. Yes, the combination worked well:
With a restaurant rewards program and a wine saving card program, Toast is making an entry into the East Village
