Ambrogio15 Enoteca, an Italian wine bar, bottle shop and gourmet market, opened last month in the former Ciao Ciao Piadina space in La Jolla. The new Enoteca is owned by Giacomo Pizzigoni and Andrea Burrone of the Milano Five restaurant group, which also operates the Acquerello by Ambrogio restaurant in La Jolla and Ambrogio15 pizzerias in Pacific Beach, Little Italy, Del Mar and Scottsdale, Ariz.

Burrone and Pizzigoni were also investors in the former Ciao Ciao Piadina, an Italian aperitivo and sandwich shop that opened in April 2021 but closed this past June. Pizzigoni said the aperitivo spot didn’t catch on with La Jolla diners, but he and Burrone believe the neighborhood was missing a gourmet wine bar.
