EQUAL PARTS SOCAL AND ATHENS, Aleko Achtipes borrows from his ancient heritage to exude for his San Diego guests philotomo , Greek hospitality, “which is all encompassing,” he explains, from the food to the front of house.

BENCOTTO IS “THE RESTAURANT THAT YOU CAN OPEN IN ITALY,” says chef Fabrizio Cavallini. Italian enough for Italians and welcoming to Americans with a taste for the dolce vita, Bencotto is a mainstay of Little Italy.
