With such stellar reviews, we know we had to try this one! Not only did it surpass our expectations, but we can't wait to go again! The service was prompt and the food was delicious! We tried the Fritto Misto, perfect size appetizer, as well as the Corzetti and the Ravioli di Zucca! We also paired the meal with the Jungle Cat and the Espresso Shakerato! Wonderful experience, highly recommend this to anyone interested!

Best holiday dinner in the city. We were seated right away. Had martinis that were perfect. Dinner was delicious and served quickly. Our waiters were great about suggestions and appearing whenever we needed them. The whole staff was in a holiday attitude and it showed. We love this restaurant for its food and atmosphere. Always take visitors here for the San Francisco local experience. It’s a treasure.

Excellent French food. The “little bites” are a great way to get started. The appetizers and mains were also excellent. Also quite vegetarian friendly.
