Authentic Italian Flavors with a Modern Touch
Welcome to Ciccia Osteria, a fresh take on authentic Italian cuisine in the heart of Barrio Logan.
“Ciccia,” a term of endearment in Italy, reflects the love and passion Chefs Francesca Penoncelli and Mario Cassineri pour into every dish. Inspired by traditional osterias—where simple, seasonal food is served in a relaxed setting—we offer hand-crafted pasta, classic recipes with a modern touch, and carefully curated wines.
Join us for a cozy, welcoming experience and savor the simple pleasures of true Italian cuisine.

Passionate About Italian Cuisine
Chef Mario Cassineri who was born and raised in Milan, Italy, infuses a taste of cultural flare and tradition into each flavorful dish that he designs.
Driven by a desire to both delight his guests as well as put a modern spin on contemporary dishes, Chef Mario credits his success in the kitchen to two defining attributes: palate and passion.
