Cute inside, great service staff. Bread from montesacro Pinseria was the highlight to us. Also liked the negroni and funghi side. Chicory & endive salad and cacio e pepe were fine. Didn’t love the gnocchi or swordfish (dry/bland).

Sometimes the best experiences happen unexpectedly. My friends and I were walking around the city when we decided to give this place a try, and I’m so glad we did because everything was absolutely delicious. The lamb chops were fantastic, and the tiramisu literally melts in your mouth. The atmosphere was pleasant, and our waiter was very kind.

We had such a wonderful experience at this Italian restaurant! Our waiter, John, was attentive, funny, and spot-on with his recommendations. The pasta was incredibly fresh and full of flavor — you can really taste the quality of the ingredients. We also loved the desserts, which were the perfect finish to the meal, and the clarified margarita was exceptional. Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic Italian food with great service!

We were lucky to get the special which was stake with potatoes and salted peppers as a side. It was delicious and perfectly cooked medium rare. The bread and oil is a must . A white Pinot Grigio bottle was the perfect wine that our server helped us pick. We don’t know his name but he was amazing (he from El Salvador ) very polite and attentive. Very nice atmosphere downstairs. Don’t sleep on the delicious tiramisu. Great job experience for our San Francisco trip.

We visited this modern Roman-style Italian spot near downtown San Francisco for a team dinner during a recent work trip — and it turned out to be a fantastic choice. The vibe is vibrant, charming, and perfect for both casual and special occasions.
We kicked off the evening with cocktails — mine was a refreshing blend of peach purée, agave, and a few other touches that made it fruity, light, and not overly boozy. If you enjoy creative cocktails, you’ll definitely appreciate their bar menu. The complimentary bread and olive oil were excellent, setting the tone right from the start.
For appetizers, we shared the risotto croquettes — a classic Roman touch — and they were well-executed. My main was the carbonara, which happens to be my all-time favorite. It was rich, creamy, and generously portioned — so much so that I ended up taking some home. Everyone at the table seemed equally happy with their mains.
While I skipped dessert (too full!), my colleagues raved about the tiramisu, panna cotta, and espresso — all earning high marks. Service was on the slower side, but honestly, that added to the relaxed, lingering vibe of the evening — exactly what you’d want for a team dinner, a group gathering, or even a date night.
All in all, a wonderful dining experience that I’d happily recommend.

We had a great time here! The food was good and so was the service. Everything (apps, pasta, proteins, dessert) tasted good, though the portion sizes felt a little small. The basement is a good spot for group gatherings. It’s in a pretty hectic area of SF so personally I don’t plan on returning.

Little hidden Italian in the plaza that creates an atmosphere of escape in an area that could use some work (don’t go on 6th Street). Feels cozy but tables are spaced enough to have privacy. Not too noisy for good conversation. Nice service.
The food itself is really good. Feels very Mediterranean and the “bar” wine is excellent as well. It was a great surprise and a great time. The burger is amazing by the way…

Two of the best pasta dishes I’ve ever had in my life.
The carbonara was extremely creamy and coated the pasta perfectly. The noodles were cooked al dente and so they had a nice chew to them. The sauce had some of the guanciale fat mixed in and gave a slight smokiness and saltiness to it. The guanciale pieces themselves were perfectly tender and crispy.
We also got the bucatini. It had a tangy heat that almost brought a tear to my eye. It felt like the most elevated, perfect spaghetti you’ve always wanted your mom to make when you were a kid. The noodles had a tiny hole in the middle to soak up all that delicious sauce. It was also made with the guanciale, but was more of a chorizo style protein. It was ground and EXTREMELY well seasoned. Slightly saltier than the carbonara, but in a good way.
I would eat both dishes for the rest of my life. Pair that with the delicious bottle of wine we had and it was one of the best meals I’ve had in a very long time.
If you’re looking for a place to go, go here. It will not let you down
OH! And the croquettes were incredible. Perfectly crisped on the outside and a warm, tomatillo forward rice in the middle. Once we cut into them with a fork, the smell of the smoked mozzarella was amazing. These were a great appetizer to our meal.

They have very traditional items on the menu, and the food was pretty good (maybe not exceptional though).
The ambiance of the place was quite romantic, perfect for a date or late night dinner with friends ✨

Beautiful, romantic, Italian restaurant. Had dinner with a girlfriend. Excellent service by Host, Staff and John. Food was incredible- we had the carbonara, gnocchi, octopus, and red wine. Flavors were fabulous! It was exactly what we were looking for. Highly recommend on a date night or girls night out!
