Il titolare è una persona squisita e l’atmosfera del locale è rilassante e molto piacevole. Ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo e molta cura nella scelta delle materie prime e nella composizione dei piatti. Per chi cerca un ristorante italiano a San Francisco questo ristorante è ideale: un piccolo angolo di Italia dove sentirsi coccolati.

Tasty food at prices appropriate for the quality in San Francisco. Excellent service. Small restaurant. A bit cramped for space but not a deal breaker. The lasagna was good. The burrata caprese salad was very good.
