We loved Lo Coco’s. I think that if you like a doughy crust with a good crunch, this is the place for you. The toppings aren’t just american normal toppings, but seem to be seriously sicilian inspired. We got the half weekly special and half combination pizza! I have never liked artichokes more. And the PASTA??? The clam linguine I have had at many restaurants and I think this sauce is my #1 clam linguine of all time. Lemony, creamy, garlic and clam. I’m usually a salad hater, but the salad was light, flavorful, and just enough.

May just be the best fresh pasta and bread I've had in the Bay Area in 8+ years of dining all over. Easily beats some of the other popular options like Flour + Water or Belotti Ristorante E Bottega. The free fresh bread was so good we could barely concentrate on the menu to order. Both the tomato-based and the pesto-based sauces were amazing, as was the pasta they were on top of. We have no regrets ordering the 6-pack of meatballs as a couple because we knew we'd want leftovers. Gelato was also incrdible, tastes like we're actually in Italy and not too sweet.
I'm just sad it took me this long to discover this place, I will be returning often!

Delicious dishes! It’s been a while since we’ve been here, but it’s by far, my favorite for Italian. It’s as close as we can get to Italy, but locally. It’s got a nice, chill and relaxed atmosphere. Great place for a small group since it’s a smaller space.

Wow, my only regret is not dining here sooner! I just had what might be one of the best pastas in the Bay Area. It wasn’t because it was a new dish - I had a basic bolognese. It was because it was one of the highest quality flours I’ve ever experienced in a pasta paired with a generations old recipe for a simple, savory bolognese. Completely knocked my socks off.
The staff were incredibly sweet and fun conversationalists. I want my kids to know a place like this, can’t wait to bring them!

There is too much tomato sauce which spoils the texture of the pizza. Also, the garlic in the sauce suppresses other flavors.

Oh all the varieties of Pizza and Pasta! You must come back and try it all! Went there on a weekday dinner without reservations, and got seated instantly, thanks to the sweet staff. While ordering, fresh focaccia was served in a easy pull apart form. The staff was nice enough to tell us all the specials and recommendations. We decided to order a Pizza (Guido), Eggplant Parmiagania, and Pappardelle Bolognese. Each dish was uniquely delicious, couldn't pick a favorite. Portions were perfect for three people. Super tasty and flavorful. They sell Mole Cola, the Coke-cola of Italy, only much better. The staff and service couldn't be any more outstanding. You can also tell the food was good when they're constantly getting Uber/ Door dash orders. Love the restaurant/ Italian store look. This place could be easily crowded during weekend dinner, but still great for parties more than 2. Try also their cocktails and dessert. Their canoli was a chocolate kind! Definitely will come back and try their different pizza and pasta flavors. Street parking only. Memorable dinner.

One of our favorites for the last 20 years. The food is awesome. Better if they didn’t close in the middle of the day.
