Orchid Marisi, the restaurant in La Jolla known for its Italian fine dining, opened in August 2022 with a romantic and timeless design. Creating a space reminiscent of an Italian escape to a homey villa, Marisi’s bold architecture and vibrant decor capture the elements of the Amalfi coast with a nostalgic and comforting ambiance of a traditional Italian trattoria. The restaurant’s showstopping elements include a 10ft brick and tiled Italian Hearth, an expansive sunlit patio, sweeping ceilings with arched walkways, “The Lemon Room” and a circular bar. Every detail from the custom-branded wallpaper to the custom-patterned floor tiles was designed or hand-selected by the team for a dream-like environment. Marisi’s color palette whisks you to the Italian coast, spotlighting hues of yellows, greens, blues and pinks. The design charms with a blend of refined classic elements and subtle yet intentional details such as vintage art prints, custom wall décor, and a mosaic bar top. Whether guests sit at the circular bar, open-air patio positioned off the town’s main thoroughfare or in the private dining room surrounded by lemons, each of the 111 seats holds a unique dining experience for patrons.

Pretty popular rich vibes
Amazing food and great service
Outstanding addition to the San Diego restaurant community!
The best ambiance & food!! Best music too.
Marisi is my favorite restaurant in San Diego. Not only is the food amazing, the ambience takes you out of San Diego and into a romantic city in Italy.
Dined there last week, and I’ve never been in a restaurant that has thought of every detail when it comes to the design, down to their hand soaps. Absolute class!
Amazing spot for Italian in La Jolla!
This place is a vibe. Perfect date spot. The food is to die for and the ambiance is a 10/10.
We love Marisi, the food is delicious and great ambiance, service is always impeccable.
