Diego RomeroJune 21, 2014Top Italian in SF for sure. Opera mood, old school italiana. Order the anti pasto, calamari, gnocchi with aurora sauce and for dessert Panna cotta, Profiteroles and the Tiramisu!
- Liz PaulinoDecember 20, 2016Very authentic Italian experience. Warm bread and has a home/family feel to it. The tortellini is amazing with white cream sauce or the aurora pink sauce. You can't go wrong. Highly recommend it!Upvoted Oct 30
Natalie MApril 29, 2019So yummy. Can’t wait to go back. The carbonara was very good but the gnocchi with their “pink sauce” was killer. The gnocchi are so light. Can’t wait to order again
Alexander WinterSeptember 26, 2013Beautiful atmosphere that's an homage to opera. Descrumptiousss food! Try the fig salad w/ creamy goat cheese. All pastas so far are amazing! Chicken with Romano cheese pasta is deeeeeeliciousness!
Rachel DaveySeptember 20, 2013Tell them it's your birthday. You get the. best. show. They turn the lights off in the whole restaurant and play an opera birthday song really loud on the speakers. The whole restaurant gets into it!- White cream tortellini and home made bread. Opera music and a bottle if wine. Then comes dinner... #boom
Susan LohJuly 29, 2011Service can be slow but such a great family-owned Italian spot. Get the eggplant parm or salmon in parchment paper. Most entrees come with a side of tortellini - go with the white sauce.
Gene SooFebruary 17, 2012A hidden gem. A very cozy family type restaurant that has great atmosphere and tasty Italian dishes.
Jonathan SalomonOctober 18, 201542 year old restaurant with original decor. Surprisingly good food, chicken and veal were excellent
Mariko TamakiSeptember 15, 2013Wait staff are amazing. Super minestrone and eggplant parm. Plus hot fresh bread. Delish.
