Testo Pepesto Italian Restaurant, El Cajon

Testo Pepesto Italian Restaurant specializes in Italian food that's both hearty and comforting. Each meal, for example, can start off with buttery garlic bread and calamari, then lead into a thin crust sweet Italian sausage and black olive pizza. For the entrees, there's the creamy, cheesy lobster mac and cheese cooked in lemon butter reduction, or the chicken picatta that's sautéed in white wine, lemon, and capers. Despite its heavy pasta-focus, Testo Pepesto Italian Restaurant also offers plenty of gluten-free versions of its signature dishes, like ravioli or spaghetti with clams.
