Highly recommend the pizza with pesto and squash as our overall favorite. Also really enjoyed the garganelli pasta ad thehalibut crudo. The cocktail with juniper berries was also very good!

We shared 2 appetizers that each had amazing textures and flavors. The gnocchi entree was spectacular. Rich, creamy and satisfying. Dessert waschocolate heaven. I will be back on my next visit.

From Antipasti through primi to Secondi, Dolci, it is so amazing, incredibly tasty. The pizza dough is simply the best!I think the most important thing to making Margherita pizza is flour, kneading dough. Ravioli de ricotta is the best ravioliI’ve ever eaten. I love the way they make cocktail, it is so uniquely garnished, beautifully decorated. Their cocktail issecond to none! Love it! Don’t neglect getting Dolci after primi, secondi. Their Dolci is perfect palate cleanser!

Actually I liked this place more than Quince. (I went there 6 years ago so it might be different now. When I haddinner there, the main dish was lamb. It was a bit disappointing for a $500 dinner. In here, we spent $100 per personincluding one glass of wine, tax and service fee. I’d definitely dine here again.

Our highlight was Conan, our wonderful server who had such a great energy and was able to explain every dish in amazing detail and in a way we couldunderstand. He also made us laugh quite a bit too! We had such a lovely dinner outside and they provided warm cozy blankets aswell. Highly recommend the raviolo and don’t skip dessert!

We were sat at the bar in front of the cooking area and had a great time watching the chefs prepare food. You can tell a lot of care and thought is put into the meals and one can definitely taste it.

Consistently delicious food, attentive and warm service in a beautifully designed space--the ultimate restaurant combination. At lunch there on a recent Wednesday, the manager was on the floor, laser focused on ensuring everything was running smoothly...always a restaurant I want to return to!

It’s my second time here and enjoy it every time. Some of the items on the menu are seasonal so there’s always new things to try. Reservations are hard to get sometimes so check ahead of time. The servers were friendly and attentive, they explain the menu thoroughly. They also adjusted our heaters since it was cold outside, as well as provided blankets. Ambiance is great and cozy. The price is good for the quality of the food. The Arancini was my favorite plate. I will for sure come back the next time in in town ??

The service was exceptional and non-intrusive.As for the food, it was amazing! I ordered the Cucumber Salad which was great, but the Agnolottini was as close to what you’d get in Piemonte! This dish was fantastic!!!Highly recommend this restaurant and looking forward to going back!

Everyone is constantly making sure your water is full. I will say the seasonal dish with the corn was DELICIOUS. The ravioli was a bit overrated in my opinion. Our main complaint was the pasta was a little under cooked in the ravioli and then the server came with the bill immediately after dessert without confirming if we wanted anything else. We had planned on asking for an espresso martini but found that this action made it time for us to leave! We would have appreciated a bit more follow up to see how we were doing and if we wanted anything else throughout the evening!

Wine selection is always good. Desserts always leave something more to be desired. All in all one of my favorite Italian places in SF.

Walkins can sit at the chefs table/counter. Plenty of bars a couple blocks away if you need to wait for your table.

I would definitely come back would highly recommend!

The strawberries dessert was incredible, too. Sitting outside was very pleasant and while we lucked out with the weather, they also had heaters and blankets. Lovely experience!
