Food was good, not exceptional. Very relaxed atmosphere. Menu on Open Table site is very out of date. prices are significantly higher and selection smaller.

Delicious Italian fare that started off with a couple of glasses of Italian white wines that were refreshing for the hot day. Salads were dressed lightly but flavorful, and our entrees of pasta primavera and the salmon were prepared exactly as requested. Our server was most welcoming, friendly and professional. A perfect restaurant pre-theatre.

The owners/host were absolutely warm, welcoming, and kind. I was running late - thanks to a bridge accident. I called - no problem! We look forward to welcoming you whenever you arrive. When I arrived my husband was enjoying the penne with sausage and mushrooms, and a glass of the house wine. He thought the two were perfectly paired. He normally piles on the parmesan cheese on any pasta dish - not this one. The flavors were just right! I took one bite and ordered the same dish for myself. The accompanying bread - much better than any found in Florence! We had an enjoyable meal before departing to our concert at Davies Symphony Hall, about 8 minutes walking distance.

SO grateful this long time Italian restaurant was added to OpenTable. Classic old school operation, really nostalgic, food is excellent. Only 4 wines available, much like a ristorante in Italy. Will be going back. Such a refreshing contrast to the uppity restaurants down the hill. Thanks again

Took the whole family for a festive dinner before the Symphony with our grown children visiting from out of town. There's a reason we return to this place again and again. The food is always wonderful. The antipasti and radicchio salad kicked off a house made pasta feast. We had wine, we had pasta, we had charming banter with the warm and welcoming proprietors and left after two huge slabs of very freshly made traditional tiramisu. This place is what San Francisco dining used to be -- affordable, personal, genuine and delicious.
