Reviews
The restaurant has “Homemade” in its name, so naturally you expect something truly special — fresh, well-crafted pasta and a homemade feel. But the experience didn’t quite live up to that expectation. It felt more like a small chain (there is at least one more location), and while the food wasn’t bad, it didn’t match what you’d imagine from a place emphasizing “homemade” in the branding.
We ordered the lasagna and the penne with pesto. The penne portion was very small — surprisingly small — and absolutely not justified for the price. The lasagna, on the other hand, was a very generous portion and tasted good. The pesto pasta was also tasty, but nothing exceptional.
I ordered a Spritz, but it wasn’t an Aperol Spritz. It tasted good, but it seemed like it was made with lemonade or something similar, so it wasn’t quite what you would expect.
The staff seemed very busy and focused on getting things prepared, probably because it was still early in the shift. They weren’t unfriendly, just quite occupied and not very attentive.
Overall, a mixed experience: the food was okay, but the limited menu availability, uneven portions, and the gap between the “homemade” promise and the actual quality make it hard to rate higher.
HOWEVER, I personally think it’s a bit pricey for the portion you’d get. That’s why I don’t come here too often. But it’s definitely a must try in North Beach!
The atmosphere was great, and the staff were nice.
You order inside and clean your own table.
The ravioli was a bit inconsistent in doneness and had less sauce than the non-vegetarian options.
The portions were okay.
The day we went, a parade was happening, which made it nice and lively.
The meat lasagna? A revelation — rich, hearty, and blissfully free of that ricotta overload that plagues so many pretenders. The burrata salad tastes like a love letter from the Italian countryside. And the pesto pasta… well, let’s just say it’s the kind of dish that makes you question your life choices.
Authentic, soulful, and crafted with a level of care you can taste in every bite. You’ll walk out full, happy, and possibly sporting a new accent.
onto the food, we got the pasticiatta tagliatelle. i’d say it was a 7.5/10. it came out hot, but i felt it lacked a bit of flavor and the noodles were more wet than i like. this is what i observed from the first time i came here, so that might just be the nature of fresh pasta!! beggars can’t be choosers!
we also got the classica piadina and it was amazing! 9/10! so simple, yet so flavorful and elegant. i don’t think i’ve had stracchino cheese before, but i am definitely a new fan – it’s a perfect balance of sweet, slightly salty, and creamy. too much prosciutto would have overpowered the sandwich, but they added the perfect amount! amazing. loved it. would definitely get again!
