Packed but a safe bet for sure! Had a bite of everyone's dinner in our party if 4 and no complaints. Calamari was great and a huge plate easily shared between 4 or more.

You can ask for any pasta and sauce combination regardless of what's on the menu. The linguini carbonara is fantastic and possibly one of the best pasta dishes I've ever had.

Great service, great food... great wine and the best Bruschetta in town . The waitress spit our salad and soup so we could share the tastes of everything. Will go back.

They may not do every single thing the best but they do it all well and as a complete package...best Italian restaurant coast to coast...and I've been to plenty.

old school as it gets. Great friendly service and delicious parm and pasta

If you order a main course, not "primi" it usually includes pasta and also gives you the opportunity to upgrade to a caesar salad for two dollars which is well worth it.

In my opinion one of the best all around Italian restaurants in the United States .

Great staff and atmosphere. Try the clam linguini , it’s to die for

Love the owner and everything about this place. I love the dinner salad and always get the veal .

My FAVORITE Italian Restaurant in San Francisco! This is the place where locals eat.....NO RESERVATIONS so get there early!

Ask for the linguini carbonara . Thank me later.

Gnocchi gorgonzola are to die for. Must try it!!

Decent Italian food . Not fantastic but not bad. There's better places in north beach . It's always very noisy and dark. I love their bar though!!

Great cocktails and food. Get the rack of lamb with pesto pasta .

A local Italian with huge portions ! Always busy, always decent

Very tasty seafood and pasta

Awesome gnocchi Gorgonzola . Decent parm .

The BEST GNOCCHI I've ever had! They're like little pillows of LOVE!

Amazing selection of seafood with an Italian flare.

Great service! Delicious food!

Linguini with clams off the hook pepper steak is to die for!!!!!!!

My favorite Italian restaurant in the US.

I don't eat at any other Italian restaurant in North Beach , this is the spot. Chicken parmigiana , ravioli both suggested dishes.

The garlic bread that comes with the meal is delicious!

The bartender Anna :-)

Gnocchi was fAntastic

Didn't like the ravioli , go to the restaurant next door, Cafe Baonecci, for a real italian food

Have a Liz Taylor

This restaurant is horrible.I ordered pasta pesto , which was clearly pesto sauce out of a can and NOT homemade !Waitress made a bitchy remark when I told her i was disappointed about my food.

Be very, very , very careful when ordering

Anna and Blaze are frantasicq

Expect a 30min wait if the bar is full.

Tip Anna big. She dederves it!

tortellinni carbonara is too fat

Pasta is not best, but ok. Espresso is not ok - too sour

Disgusting food! How do they even make a pizza margarita taste bad?

The ravioli is horrible. Tastes like it's from a can. Sorry.
