Jaziri opened the casual-service restaurant a year ago in honor of her Tunisian-Mexican heritage. She had previously operated a food truck in San Francisco before returning to her native San Diego. 2850 El Cajon Blvd., 619-230-5037, medinakitchen.com.

The new Rusticucina in Hillcrest is up and running to the tune of dry-aged meatballs, lobster lasagna, bone marrow risotto and other Italian-American dishes created by chef and co-owner Marco Provino.

Lunch and dinner are served daily, and there is also weekend brunch. 3797 Park Blvd., 619-310-5291, rusticucina.com.
