Beautiful café-restaurant located in a historic building that is worth reading about. The ambiance is classic and cozy, and the service was very friendly.
The spaghetti meatballs were good, but they lacked salt and the depth of flavor I would have expected.
Aside from that, I can recommend this place and would consider coming back.

I recently stopped by Café Zoetrope in San Francisco, and it honestly felt like stepping into a little corner of Italy tucked right inside the city. The place has such a unique charm—the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with film posters, memorabilia, and that warm, cozy atmosphere that makes you want to stay longer than you planned.
I ordered a glass of Coppola wine and a plate of pasta, and both were just perfect—simple, flavorful, and comforting. What I loved most, though, was the vibe. It’s unpretentious, welcoming, and you feel like you’re part of a story unfolding in this historic building.
It’s the kind of café where you can sit for hours, sipping coffee or wine, enjoying good food, and just soaking in the atmosphere. Definitely one of those spots that makes San Francisco feel so special

Went for an aperitivo, staff very nice and great cocktail makers. There’s a machine that prints short stories (you choose 1, 3 or 5 minute reading times) which is great to accompany your drink. Had the arancini di riso which were really tasty. Loved the Coppola artefacts dotted throughout – a must for any fan.

If you’re a Godfather fan, this place hits different — the director is definitely the boss here.

The Café Zoetrope Italian Restaurant is right on the corner of Kearny and Whocares, its easy to find and parking is a snap! Now, ..think about this for just a second, there’s about 3 Italian restaurants in SF for every 10 people, and that’s a lot of Pastapazzoo! Well, I’ve had the pleasure of eating at about 150 of them, and let me just say this about Café Zoetrope…the Chicken Cacciatore is most likely the best I’ve had in SF…It was Amazing, and in every aspect worthy of 5 stars!

The building is more impressive from outside, but also nice inside. Service was nice, but we only had cocktails.

This pasta will heal anything that ails you! Great wine selection. Service is tag-team present, but not intrusive. Amazingly reasonable prices for such high quality and the location.

Very cute Italian cafe. Loved the atmosphere. Buy that was as far as it went. Started with bread with balsamic & olive oil. The balsamic was thin and very sour. The olive oil had zero flavor and the bread was dinner rolls. Next was a Cesar salad. This was pretty good. For the main course I ordered arrabbiata. I got a little heat from the spice red chili but other than that it was incredibly bland. I didn’t even finish it.

Overall experience was good. The amount of pasta didn’t reflect the price but the linguine with clams was delicious and the meatballs made from veal were delicious as well. We sat outside to enjoy the nice weather and service was also great as our waiter scooped spoons of Parmesan cheese to our liking on our plate. The Italian soda and complimentary rolls were good also.

The atmosphere was great however the food and the service have so much to improve. The service was nice but pretty slow and inexperienced . We ordered the lamb and it wasn’t good at all. The meat had a strong smell and taste which usually happens when the meat quality is not as great as it should be. The pasta carbonara and pizza weren’t nothing special to repeat. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend to go there.
