    Awesome meal, awesome service. We had the calamari appetizer and penne ala vodka. Fresh and authentic. Portions were enough to share between my wife and I. Tiramisu was the best I'd ever had. 👍👍👍

    The fettuccine with mussels was good as well as the other pasta dish with truffles. The side of mussels and clams was also good. A very authentic Italian restaurant in North Beach.

    Great place! Ravioli alla Zucca was delicious ... went with my boyfriend we enjoyed it a lot... they offered a complementary antipasti, we tried an Italian option and was very tasteful ??

    Besides the veal parmigiana which is definitely a must have, it's got by far the best service I've ever experienced in SF.

    Make a reservation for the FIAT, if you don't mind the attention and gimmickiness of it. Special treatment from the staff if you do it, and decent food to boot!

    Gnocchi was very good, like little puffy clouds, not sticky or gluey at all. Get them and share with someone else, they are filling.

    Great ambiance and service (by a genuine Italian waiter!); good (not great) food, but a reasonable price.

    although the experience of the restaurant is interesting, the food (especially the pizza’s) were not as we expected. Burned, extremely sour, and overpriced.
