Replacing Devine Pastabilities in the Midway District of San Diego's Point Loma is Cucina Caprese, a catering company-turned restaurant that offers a menu centered around wood-fired Italian cuisine.

Owned by Derya Ozbey with a menu executed by Italian-born chef Giuseppe Monaco, Cucina Caprese has been a fixture at local farmers markets and area pop-ups for nearly a decade. The concept recently signed a lease to take over the space that long housed Devine Pastabilities (Torpasta) within Nordic Village Shopping Center in the Midway District of Point Loma.
