    Good looking French brasserie interior, well executed classic Italian dishes and an epic tiramisu and panna cotta for desert.

    Owned by Francis Ford Coppola, director of The Godfather movies. The penne arrabbiata and Syrah wine, both at the waiter's recommendation, were awesome. Definitely coming back.

    It's a pleasant atmosphere. Food was good. It had a New York feel to it. Felt the Francis Ford Coppola vibe here. The buidling is beautiful. Check it out.

    Nice wine selection from the Coppola winery. Wine flights available. French bistro vibe, Italian and Argentina food menu.

    Owned by filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola, this cozy cafe serves up simple, hearty Italian food. Many of the wines poured here come from Francis Cord Coppola's vineyward, and movie memorabilia abounds!

    The house wine (Coppola's own) is a great deal - I nearly always go for the appetizer plank and the arabbiata.

    Located in the historic Francis Ford Coppola Building entering North Beach from the Financial District on Columbus. Enjoy the Neopolitan pizza, putanesca, or just order wine and eat bread =D

    The building containing this cafe houses several of Francis Ford Coppola's enterprises. He acquired the movie rights to "On the Road" in 1979.

    Nice place to eat. However, my pasta took 40 minutes to come in an empty restaurant, and worst, they made a huge mistake in my order. $23 (or more) for a spaghetti and meatballs, was not worthy.
