San Diego, considering its location, has quite a few great selections for Italian cuisine. Monello has definitely raised the bar for authenticity as well as overall experience. It’s a wonderfully designed space with Milano referenced artwork, gorgeous plants, and a menu that’s out of this world!

There are workout facilities and then there are wellness centers, AquaVie is undoubtedly the latter. In a city that’s been deemed “16th Most Fit” you can find a place to loose lbs every couple of blocks. However, at AquaVie they focus on the entire package, mind, body, and souls.
