Traditional italian
Delicious food Great service Warm cozy atmosphere Great for date or family We sat in the corner but did not feel unnoticed or claustrophobic staff was wonderful and our service was great and attentive!
Great food, friendly service, reasonable price. Extensive menu of really delicious Italian options. Lovely desserts and fab coffee. So good ate I. Two nights of a four night stay in SAN Francisco.
Whilst staying in Union square I had a craving for Italian cuisine, we made a reservation and enjoyed the evening. The staff were very accommodating and the interior was lovely. Both entree and mains were delicious, my wine was also great!
Delicious! They accommodated our family as walkins and it turned out to be the best meal we had in the city. We had a few things off of the daily specials menu and several off of the regular menu. All were stellar. Even the house italian white wine was nice. Have the cannollis - fantastic!

This is probably one of the finest Italian restaurants we have been so far. We went there for a dinner and had a great time, of course at the cost of a big hole in our pocket.
Food:
We had Bruschetta, Ravioli Di Spinachi, a classic Tiramisu and the Dessert of the day (Cannoli) and none of them disappointed. Bruschetta were good - nothing too facy or overdone but just right. Ravioli Di Spinachi was amazing. Filling was good and the parmesan sauce was brilliant. What blew away our mind was Tiramisu which was absolutely delicious. It is a must try and a disappointment if you're planning Italian desserts and not ordering Tiramisu. Cannoli was good but not so much that it goes into the list of Dessert of the Day.
Overall, the food was quite above the benchmark but it is quite heavily priced too, so be ready to sign a big check at the end.
Ambiance:
The place is a little dark. Perhaps a little more bright light will give it a better feeling. Not much cramped and very comfortable seating - more like restaurants which are meant for fine dining. Given that we went on a weekday night, it wasn't much crowded.
Service:
The service was good and quick. The food took reasonable time to come. But if you're in a rush, this restaurant is not for you. The staff is good overall - no bad experience as such.
Overall, if you're in San Francisco, this restaurant is a must try if you want to taste some real good Italian.
...I was happy with the seafood & the sauce (wasn’t too tomato-y; it was flavourful but not very rich/thick). However… the linguini was a little undercooked, I thought. By my standards anyways… maybe that’s the authentic Italian style, or how SF locals like it, but for me, the linguini was a little hard.
I just finished a fantastic meal with my wife and daughter. The food was simply delicious and my only problem was that I ate way too much. However, it wasn’t simply the delicious dance of flavors — the staff made us feel totally at home — if home was some villa in Tuscany.
Highly recommended!
This seemed like a nice restaurant but it made you think twice. When calling to make the reservation and to confirm it, they answered ‘hello’ and with no business name. 🤔
The location is just a few blocks away from Union Square, a short walk but one that you need to keep your head on a swivel for.
I liked how the restaurant was decorated and it certainly had a nice ambiance with all of the dim lights and wine bottles. We were sat to our tables and the wait staff was super attentive and able to keep everything and everyone going. We ordered a veal parmigiana and then another dish that had a half breast of chicken, an Italian sausage and (2) small shrimp. The food was just meh but the service was great. These people work really, really hard and it shows. That alone, will bring me back again.
They had a nice selection of wines and a few beers, I think a full bar too.
Only four stars for me, because I only got (2) shrimp with my dinner. I’ll be back though!
If I could give this Restaurant a Michelin I would in a heartbeat. One of the best Seafood Risotto that I have ever eaten. Come here for the atmosphere and leave fully satisfied. Service is impeccable and their staff is very attentive. I will definitely come back and visit again.
The bruschetta we had as an appetizer was warm, which I didn't expect, but it wasn't bad, just unusual and very delicious. As the main course I had the Carbonara, which was slightly overcooked but nicely flavored. It also had peas in it which I didn't mind but also did not expect.
Definitely recommend trying the place!
Oh my God, this place was absolutely amazing!
The lobster ravioli was cooked to perfection. The eggplant was delicious, but the scampi with prawns and scallops were top of the line! If you are in San Francisco, you have to try the this place.
Shoutout to our server Joseph. The interior is bigger than it looks from the outside. Probably the best Italian spot in Lower Nobhill for me. The food was delicious and the serving portions were very filling for us. I will definitely be back

Nice family atmosphere. The service was great and the food was delicious. We had the seafood risotto and was full of seafood and not much of risotto but extremely good. For dessert the tiramisu was the best one I have ever had.
I hadn't been here in a while so I forgot how amazing the food is. Many wonderful authentic Italian favorites at reasonable prices. They'll see me again soon!
Great food, great people. Went there for pre theater dinner. The service was warm and friendly. The food exceeded expectations - the calamari was the most tender I've had in years and the red sauce was complex. Entrees were great and had more nuanced flavors that you normally get. On top of that, we asked if we could get leftovers to go and pick them up after the show. The restaurant closed a bit early, but the owner stuck around to make sure we could pick up out togo containers, which seems like a superhero level of customer care. All in all very happy to recommend this place and looking forward to returning.
Great pizza and VERY generous toppings. Slices are so big they are hard to pick up. Definitely need to use a fork and knife if you don't want your toppings falling all over the place. Not shoot on the cheese either. I'll be back!
