WELCOME TO CLOAK & PETAL!Where we invite you to journey into a place of both intimacy and companionshipOur concept is drawn from our name. The word “cloak” implies secrecy, inspiring our concept of a social sphere humming beneath the levels of ordinary life. “Petal” alludes to the Japanese tradition of “hanami,” when family and friends gather under blooming cherry blossoms to savor food, drinks and fellowship.Enter our space and travel underground to décor reminiscent of an abandoned Tokyo subway, a stratum of society all its own, an artist’s dream. Cross the threshold into a mystically transformed Japanese social dining lounge which appears to be an outdoor seating area, similar to a waiting platform. Sit beneath a trellis of draping vines and teardrop lights in the intimate space we’ve thoughtfully created, and feast on authentic Japanese sushi, appetizers, small plates and drinks with family and friends.Journey down to Cloak + Petal… and come unwind your soul.
Buona Forchetta South Park is an award-winning Italian Cuisine restaurant in San Diego, founded in 2011 and inspired by traditional Neapolitan technique. The flagship location is anchored by Sofia, a custom Stefano Ferrara wood-fired oven imported from Naples, which bakes the restaurant's signature Neapolitan pizza using authentic Italian methods. The dining room channels the warmth of a southern Italian home, while the lush, lantern-strung backyard patio — a South Park favorite — makes it a go-to spot for date nights and long dinners with friends. Located minutes from Balboa Park and the shops and cafes of South Park's 30th Street corridor, Buona Forchetta has earned recognition from Gambero Rosso, a spot among San Diego Magazine's Best Pizza, and a recurring OpenTable Diners' Choice award as one of the best pizza restaurants in San Diego.
