What You'll Get
According to most restaurant critics, the perfect spaghetti is served on a plate, which rests on a table with legs. Try some fresh Italian cuisine the way it was meant to be served with today's Groupon: for $15, you get $35 worth of local, organic Italian at Cin Cin! Simply Italian Restaurant in Poway. This offer is not valid toward the prix fixe menu.
Cin Cin! uses local, fresh ingredients, organic produce, and classic Italian cooking techniques to create a seasonal menu of simple, yet elegant salads, pizzas, pastas, and more. Signal the start of dinner with your best howler-monkey impression before an appetizer of habanero mussels in a Valencia orange and basil broth ($8.95). Continue the trek toward the main course by way of salad, such as the grilled antipasto (fresh mozzarella, artichoke hearts, romaine, and Italian deli meats, $6.95). Cin Cin!'s selection of pasta dishes sees Italy through California glasses with dishes such as the roasted pepper and shrimp gnocchi ($15.95). Create your own leaning tower by ordering all four preconceived pizza varieties, including the Greek ($12.95) and gorgonzola and figs ($12.95), and topping the stack with a build-your-own original ($10, plus $2 per topping). The lunch menu features a pared-down dinner selection, plus paninis ($8.50).
Cushy booths, rich woodwork, and weekly live music beckon diners to sate their oral and aural hungers in the comfortable, modern space. Swig a cocktail made from the full bar, or sip as you sup with the help of the suggested wine pairings thoughtfully provided for each dish, allowing patrons to expend brain energy on more important issues, such as how to properly hold chopsticks while eating a plate of pasta.
Valid for dine-in only.
