I rarely leave negative reviews because I understand how important positive feedback is for small businesses. However, our recent experience was disappointing.
The server’s attitude felt disrespectful from the start. He questioned whether we were comfortable with the wine prices in a way that made us feel uncomfortable. He also described a special as having a “bolognese-like sauce,” but when I referred to it as “bolognese pasta,” he abruptly stated that they did not have bolognese pasta, which was confusing given his earlier description.
What concerned me most was his behavior toward my daughter. She was quietly drawing on the back of the receipt when he took the pen from her abruptly, without asking. She was visibly embarrassed by the interaction.
We spoke with the owner, whom we like and respect, but unfortunately the experience left a negative impression. For that reason, we will not be returning.

Excellent time. Service was nice – tried very hard to keep up, place was a little understaffed. Food was authentically Sardinian which was awesome. Delicious seafood. Great time overall. Loved the food

La Ciccia is one of our favorite restaurants in SF. We’ve been coming here a bunch over the past year and took our parents here whenever they are in town
It’s a small family style restaurant with a cozy vibe, and the service is always friendly
We’ve tried pretty much everything on the menu at this point, and our favorite dishes are the roasted calamari, baby octopus stew, and oven roasted prawns. Everything is packed with flavor. This place is perfect if you like a little bit of spice in your dishes

For the appetizer, we ordered Inzalaredda de Acciugasa e Arangiu, which paired perfectly with the bread. We also ordered Prupisceddu in Umidu cun Tomatiga, which was incredibly tender. Pasta Cruzza cun Arrizonis for the main course was very authentic, and eating it warm was a delightful experience. Pezza de Angioni a sa Saba was also very tender. The restaurant had a great ambiance, and the service was excellent!!!! ❤️

I hadn’t been there in years and the food was better than I remember. I started with the sardines, a delicate taste served with a little tart wilted greens. For my main I had the lamb tenderloins. Finished it off with the three gelati (my favorite was the fig with goat cheese and balsamic vinegar. My friend had the special pasta with pork and requested a smaller portion as her appetizer and had the shrimp. Delicious food and wonderful knowledgeable service
Warning: it gets very loud and can be challenging to hear each other.

The food is quite good, especially the octopus stew and gnocchi. I would strongly recommend making a reservation in the main dining room. We ate at the back patio and it’s not a similar experience. We had to scrounge up our own utensils, ask for plates, and try to find someone for water refills.

Had the best evening at La Ciccia, and every dish and the wine were all delicious. Cheryl and team are lovely, very warm and welcoming. Here’s what we ordered:
Starters: calamari, the oven roasted prawns
Mains: pasta special of the day, and the spaghetti spicy olive oil with bottariga
All were so flavorful and complex, will order everything again. Forgot what wine we had but it was recommended by our server.

Very tasty food, but I expected more at the price point.
The Baby Octopus Stew was spectacular. Very tender, just spicy enough, and incredibly rich. The calamari was refreshingly vibrant.
The Chocolate Panna Cotta was also well executed.
Our two mains were somewhat underwhelming. The sea urchin pasta was a bit too briny for my liking, and the sauce wasn’t rich enough to counteract that. The lamb was well-cooked, but the seasoning left something to be desired.
Overall, I’d come back! But I’d try some different mains, since I can definitely see the potential here.

Had been wanting to try this place for a while – the service was great and the ambiance was cozy (except for the front entrance, there was no waiting area and lots of people were crowded waiting for their tables throughout the night).
We ordered the roasted calamari for an appetizer which was well seasoned, and 2 pastas. The spicy oil salmon roe had a great texture, but unfortunately did not like the overall flavor – was much too olive forward which made it bitter. Secondly we had the fettuccine with sea urchin, and similarly that flavor was lacking something. Overall it’s a solid place but wouldn’t come again. For the prices, you could go to Itria which is much tastier

It was good, problem is there is SO much great in SF. Really enjoyed the Burrata. The gnocchi seemed more like shell pasta (we even asked ), great flat bread. Spaghetti was good. Nothing was a home run. Maybe the flat bread.
(Want to answer the restaurant “answer to my review”:
I have been to Sardinia, I do understand the type of food it is. Instead of addressing issues, this is the reason your once impossible to get into restaurant is easy to get a same day reservation. Good food is good food and great food is great food and you don’t need to understand it to know it. I have not been to Korea or Japan or China and am able to determine good from great. I think you have it in you, time to up your game. Believe it or not, I’d love nothing more than to see you succeed).
