Neighborhood Italian Gem in Glen Park
This is a great neighborhood Italian gem, recently featured in Timeout's list of top neighborhoods worldwide (Glen Park is #35!). My experience was excellent, with perfect scores for atmosphere, service, and food. The vegetarian offerings are highly recommended, with a dedicated vegetarian menu or section. Seating is in an indoor dining area, and while wheelchair accessibility is noted as 'No curbs and tables can easily be rearranged for chairs, ' the wait time is typically up to 10 minutes. The price per person is between $10–$20.

Fabulous San Francisco Gem!
My experience at this restaurant was incredibly positive. The atmosphere was cozy, and the food was incredibly delicious. I was served by a charming man who turned out to be the owner, which added a personal touch to the experience. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Although it's far out of my way, I'm making a point to bring other friends to this fabulous representation of what San Francisco has to offer.

Good food, poor service
My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. The atmosphere was nice and had a family feel. However, the service was severely lacking. One server was left to handle everything, with no hostess or busboy, which meant our table was forgotten. We were overcharged for a glass of wine, and it took over 15 minutes to get the server's attention to adjust the bill. The food itself was good, but the poor service made it a disappointing experience. I will not return or recommend this place due to the staffing issues.

Delicious Food, Lovely Service!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic. We found it to be one of our favorites. The service was handled by one person, but he was lovely and made everything a great experience. All the food was delicious. They were also incredibly nice to my kid, which is always a huge plus for us.

Rude Service Despite Reservation
My experience was quite negative. I waited ten minutes to be seated, only for someone to rudely tell me to leave because the restaurant wasn't open yet. This was despite having a reservation for the time I arrived, and other patrons were already being seated. I will be spending my money elsewhere where I feel welcomed.

Authentic Family Dinner Experience
My experience at this restaurant felt like a family dinner. The food was good, with all homemade pasta. It was impressive how one man was running the entire dining room; he was great and definitely got his steps in. The atmosphere was rated a 5, and the service was also a 5. There was no wait time, and parking was plentiful with free street parking. The noise level was quiet, making it easy to talk.

Delicious Bolognese and Charming Atmosphere
This was the first restaurant I went to when I moved to SF and it did not disappoint! Their bolognese was mouth-watering and the pasta cooked to perfection. The staff were friendly and actually spoke to me in Italian when I tried out a couple words! A cute little place, great for a date spot or even just a solo night out as a treat.

Delicious Rigatoni and Gnocchi, Great Service
Reservations are available on their website and through Open Table. Give yourself time to get to the restaurant as residential parking is a bit tough to find during dinner hours. I ordered the Rigatoni alla Bishero and Gnocchi alla Piemontese entrees, and they were delicious and flavorful. Shoutout to Mr. Manzoni for taking great care of us.

Authentic Italian Gem with Stellar Service
My experience at this amazing little spot was truly wonderful. It boasts an authentically Italian vibe, making it a perfect choice for a Friday date-night. The highlight was undoubtedly their house-made pasta, which was absolutely delicious. The service was exceptional, with a genuinely caring and hustling waiter (possibly the owner) who provided service that was both exceptionally efficient and genuinely friendly.

Good food, long wait on Valentine's Day
We had a reservation for 6: 30 PM, but weren't seated until 7: 30 PM, and our appetizers didn't arrive until 8: 30 PM. It was Valentine's Day, and they were extremely busy, explaining that OpenTable had messed up their reservation system. To their credit, they offered complimentary wine and dessert to make up for the delay. The food was good. I would probably try again and give them a second chance.
