Best Family Style Restaurants in Financial District / Embarcadero

Superb service and food. Table For 7 and it was fantastic. The baked feta, meatballs, and lamb chops THE BEST. Wish we were able to have the holiday goose.

Great dining experience for a large group. All the leaded and unleaded cocktails were delicious as was all the food. We ended up ordering double of all the small plates because they were so delicious. The cod and the spaghetti were decadent and perfection. We didn’t have time to stay for dessert so we will have to check them out next time. Thanks!

We ordered all the apps for a group of 8. Service was great from the bar to the tables. Very friendly bartender and waitstaff! Love the convenient parking coming from the East Bay. This is a great meeting spot. Loved the hummus, Brussels and the halloumi. Not a duck fan but the radio it came on was great. Wish Tadig was offered with the kabab. Loved the ice cream with saffron.

Beautiful space, impeccable food and attentive service.

I have been a customer of this Gem for over 20 years. The food is authentic Italian with a modern creative touch to it. Best of all it is seasonal which gives you something to look forward to every quarter. The clams and mussels come in several broths and it never fails that when I bring a guest they all fawn over it. Service is good and the owners pay close attention to making everyone comfortable. The decor is reminicint of Pompei and one of the owners Pinot will tell you the story of it if you ask. Definately if you want an authentic modern Italian meal, this is the place
