Puccini & Pinetti

We were visiting SF for couple of days and wanted to grab something not very spicy and a quick bite. We found this place close to our hotel and went to give it a try. Since I been to Italy recently, I was all set to compare the food with my Italian food experience and I will not lie but was amazed with the strong flavor and authenticity of the food. We started with bread and olive oil based sauce..very amazing. My wife loved the pizza and insisted to go again...capelinni was little softer in aroma but overall it was a nice experience. Service was very good.good staff and honored all our requests.. would definitely recommend a visit if you are in the area..

First of all, it's a very neat place but I wouldn't describe it as an "Italian" restaurant. That being said, the attention is awesome, the waiters are very nice and they know what they are offering. Good variety in the menu and great food quality. The place has a nice looking bar were to have drinks or even eat but I didn't get the chance to sit there yet.

Right across the street from the Hilton Parc 55. Nice upscale American/Italian restaurant. Service was excellent with great wine/beer list. Typical issues with a nice place in San Francisco, bathroom code and asking if ordering a full meal. I made sure to tell them I was in no hurry as the place was half empty and they brought my selections in a nice slow pace. Bruschetta was interesting, kind of decomposed as the tomato was served off the bread and warm. Cesar salad was unchopped sections of Romaine but dressed well. Chicken Marsala was served with mashed potatoes and spinach leaves, nice touch and added a nice flavor. Overall great experience and would recommend.

Fantastic Italian upscale place and food is awesome. Prices have gone up since i visited last time but thats all over the city. Service is very prompt! there are some nice options on cocktails menu. I usually dont remember the names but "Krack Me Up" is exception i guess.. Worth a try & will try again next time. Food is great and can be customized based on your taste. Bread comes with a house made chutney/dressing, was the best i ever had before. & yes, the place is kids friendly!
