Our History
Few restaurants ever earn the right to look back over decades, rather than years or months. We have set a standard where the smiles are a little warmer and more welcoming, where choice ingredients are hand-picked by family farmers and where old Northern Italian favorites never fail to delight . . . yet always offer something new.
Seasonal specials that celebrate the natural bounty of Bay Area – fresh bread, pasta and salumi – are made daily by hand and from scratch. Unexpected wines from around the world, and across the bay, are chosen to showcase flavors to their fullest enjoyment. In the heart of San Francisco, there’s still a world apart.
