OMG! A great ssmple of Italian hospitality and cuisine. 👨🍳
Due to the long wait, they comped me an extra glass of wine.
This place rarely has available seating but I chose to sit outside under a heat lamp which helped to keep the cold at bay.
The starter salad was well seasoned and the Parmigiana was perfectly seasoned.
We come here all the time. The service is great. Anne makes the best margaritas, the house salad and the dressing are the bomb, meat balls were really good yesterday, the grilled chicken breast was really good to, great gal serving tables names Rachel.
Home. That is how I would describe Sodini's. We were seated quickly, the bread and water arrived shortly thereafter. We scrambled to make our decisions and the waitress sensed our rush. She then sat down with us and began to talk with us about why we were there and our timing. Then said, no need to rush, the table is yours. Let's order some drinks and then we will work on dinner!!! Holy smokes, did that just happen?! Her recommendations were fantastic, the service was impeccable and the overall evening was a smashing success! Did I already say the food was amazing?!!! We were there on July 4th with our 2 daughters. Can't wait to go back. Make sure you have the tortellini carbonara, the Veal and an Elizabeth Taylor (cocktail). Absolutely incredible!!!!
Went on a Saturday at 6 p.m., no wait and plenty of seating available both inside and outside. Got the menus, water, bread and butter soon enough. Had bruschetta, house salad, chicken parm, and seafood linguini. All food was good, and big portions. Would go back.
This place feels like the North Beach Italian restaurants of my youth.
Wonderfully warm and welcoming staff.
Very generous pours of wine. And plenty of food on your plate.
I wish I'd been able to eat here 2-3 times, but I was visiting on business.
Loved this place! A hidden gem in Little Italy. Walking in you feel like this is an old school Italian home. Family photos on the wall, locals at the bar, and an open kitchen for you to watch. I can’t even tell you the last time I saw a restaurant staff laughing with each other and be so attentive with their guests.
The food was amazing. I had the linguine with clams. It was creamier than I was expecting and that was not a bad thing. The dish was full of clams and flavor! My wife had meatballs and minestrone soup. Both were very uniquely homestyle. I wasn’t a fan of the meatballs but everyone else loved them. The garlic cheesy bread was fabulous and the service was superb. Would definitely go back if for nothing else but the vibe or family!
The cliches aside, this Red Sauce North Beach Classic is top notch. The owner greeted me and after a brief wait I was able to score a slot at the bar. A chilled martini was the perfect starter before diving into one of the best veal scallopini I have experienced. A side of spaghetti with super bright and fresh tomato sauce eventually mixed with the rich veal reduction and created perfection. Incredible atmosphere and professional service. Love this place.
Absolutely beautiful atmosphere and the food was to die for. I've never enjoyed linguine and clams like I have here. This was one of my favorite eats in San Francisco ❤
The tortallini carbonara was delicious! Creamy mushroom sauce was very flavorful. The tortallini was cooked well, mostly even texture throughout. Next time will definitely try the gnocchi.
Great outdoor patio dining area. They have all these cute little grape fairy lights hanging above you. Jazz piano playing at the gallery across the street. Very nice ambiance. Didn't get to sit inside the restaurant but the front entrance gushed with lively energy from inside
Love the food. We had pasta and was of good quality. I would have more tomato sauce on linguini with meatballs but they were tasty nonetheless. Shame they do not offer puddings though. Service was attentive, friendly and fast. Love the decor. Would go back for some good Italian food. We spent $60 for water, glass of wine, bread and two pasta dishes.
