Came here with some friends before GDC.

Good:
– They had an easy reservation system.
– The polenta and tomato dish was a good portion size, and I liked the texture of the polenta and how it came with bread and butter and jam as well
– It’s quiet so it’s easy to talk and catch up with people here.

Bad:
– It took about 30 minutes to get my order and there weren’t many others in the restaurant so it just surprised me.
– The food was okay, it wasn’t anything special and it was quite expensive.
– Pretty dim place and it feels a bit run down ambiance

Overall this place was an okay spot but wouldn’t come again.

Rocco’s cafe is a lovely spot. Main courses are spot on. The service is incredibly friendly, helpful, and fast. This really seems like a local favourite, and deservedly so.

I came here a few times during my visit.

The fried chicken is good, the beef sandwich is actually insanely juicy. Salads are flavoursome and fresh. When back in SF, I will surely revisit.

Desserts unfortunately are not on the same level as the main dishes, but not much to complain about!

By Folsom and 7st. Good Italian place serving old favorites. I had a full serving of the Chicken Marsala, well made fresh rendition , served hot with a side of penne Marinara and Minestrone in the side. Clean place with a counter.

This place is so wonderful, my beautiful wife I come here often now. It’s one of our favorite spots!

The food is cooked to a high quality and each dish has a unique touch. The owner and staff are very attentive and friendly. The restaurant is also full of classic vintage, many of which are specific to SF.

I highly recommend.

Excellent food and service. Reminded me of the dinner my grandfather used to own where you could just chat with the chef and team as they bustled around.

Service was quick and I appreciated having a curated menu versus pages and pages of options.

Michael is a delight as well and you can tell he has a passion for cooking and making people feel welcome at his restaurant.

The staff here is so friendly! The food is great too. Highly recommend the whipped ricotta and chicken Marsala. I love that you can order half sizes of most of the dishes on the menu.

The food here can be described as mediocre at best. Both my wife and I did not enjoy our food but it was edible. I would definitely not come here again.

On top of that they were playing music so loud that we were unable to have a conversation.

I went for lunch, and Rocco’s has casual vibes and standard fare you would expect at an Italian spot.

It looked like only one server at lunch, but there weren’t too many diners and plenty of seats available, so service was still great.

The soup I got looked like it had exploded a bit in a microwave with how the sides were dripping with slightly dried out liquid. It didn’t affect the taste and I was fine with how it looked since it came out hot. The bread is nothing special, but I appreciated the generous amount of butter to go with it. The half order of the chicken parmesan was a lot for one person. The full order must be a sharable plate if the size of the half portion is anything to go by.

It’s a perfectly fine place for lunch if you’re close by. I wouldn’t go out of my way to get here.

Sizzler. That was in our young minds, the best place to get a steak! We were also there on many occasions for the “unlimited” all you can eat salad bar and would take chicken nuggets from the kids section! In our college years, We went to ” Tad’s Steak” on Powell St. We felt we were living the life!

Rocco’s is the place I go to around work to treat myself to a nice sizzling steak w/ mushrooms. For $28.95, you get a nice ribeye with a pile of mushrooms on top. It’s oozing with flavor and juices. You can also get a side of plump raviolis or fries.

Meatballs- housemade and it comes in two. By far, one of my favorite meatballs in the whole city! Nice, huge balls with texture and not dry at all.

Your meal begins with complimentary bread and butter. But, you can request for the bread to be warmly toasted and also some olive oil and balsamic vinegar to dip it in.

The owner, Don is around to say hello and talk to you on most days. Due to staff shortages, customer service is slow as expected. Parking can be difficult

They have many other hearty Italian American inspired dishes for a satisfying meal.

Food was delicious! Spot on! The place has an awesome old school feel. Chicken Picatta was on point, Fried Calamari was on point, Spumoni was on point, even the cappuccino was on point. Service was amazing, the new owner was friendly, and remarkably hard working. The same can be said for the cook and the rest of the wait staff. Did I say the food was delicious? Cause it is. I haven’t had Italian this good since New York.
