Melt in your mouth gnocchi. The pasta options are all delicious. Yummy bruschetta. Panna cotta the best we've ever had.

First off, the food was absolutely incredible. Every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully prepared, easily the best Italian restaurant I’ve been to.
The service was just as impressive, if not better. Our waiter delivered true five-star service, offering complimentary tastings, making thoughtful recommendations, and striking the perfect balance of attentiveness without being overbearing.
The ambiance was a perfect blend of classy and fun, with the charm of an upscale Italian restaurant and the energy of a lively bar. They even have a free pool table, which adds a playful touch.
Highly recommend. I’ll be making it a point to return to San Francisco just to dine here again.

It was a perfect dinner for our party of six! The food was amazing, notably the spinach salad, grilled artichokes, pastas (bottarga, puttanesca, gnocchi with squid ink), wonderful cocktails, and appetizers. The service was on point! Friendly, attentive, and accommodating. The ambiance is exactly what we seek in a dinner experience - beautiful lighting, low noise level. Everyone in our party LOVED their meal. Can't wait to go back :)

Absolutely WOW. Phenomenal and authentic Italian cuisine. Food was very good and high quality ingredients and generous portions. You definitely get what you pay for. Service was very good quality, keeping the table clean etc, but a bit slower as that is the normal especially with European culture. Not slow to the point where it’s problematic, but slow enough to allow you to enjoy your company and conversation. I will absolutely be bringing people here in the future.

We found this place accidentally and have been delighted every time we've come here. It is our favorite Italian spot in San Francisco. Most recently I ate the Veal bone marrow, Lobster Ravioli, and Gnocchi Gorgonzola. The pasta dishes were richly creamy, flavourful, and amazing. The sangiovese we ordered was smooth. The complimentary bread and dip is great too. Servers are courteous and attentive. Overall a great time.

Great service and great food! The menu was a little overwhelming at first to read but we both were able to find something we liked. The quality and quantity of food were perfect (and we were given some additional treats for free)! I wouldn’t say this gives typical Italian-American restaurant vibes (more authentic Italian) but in the afternoon it was quiet and exactly what we needed. Lots of gluten free options and pasta is very well made!

Came with a work group and the staff was wildly accommodating of our large group and long, relaxed meal.
The bar area really undersold the high quality of the dishes and the attentive, gracious service. Incredible artichoke dish and also loved the Matriciana. Sadly, I ate too much to enjoy a affogato so I’ll need to return one day with my handsome lover and treat him to dinner and dessert.

We were a group of 6 adults and 1 toddler. Bella Trattoria had a table set up for us with a high chair, and they were very accommodating. The place is warm and cozy, and had an eclectic group of customers, some couples on date night at the bar and the front tables, and 3-4 tables had young families. I like that they didn't snub the couples with young babies.
The food we ordered was very good. We had a vegetarian minestrone that came out in pots for our whole table to share, along with some fresh bread. Our entrees were pastas: creamy cheese ravioli with veggies added (our cousin loved), pesto (my husband's favorite), arrabbiata spaghetti (the baby's first time trying it, and she took it over - loved it), and a fettuccini dish that was made with an egg sauce, which was very tasty. Sorry I don't remember the official names of the dishes, we didn't take a pic of that day's menu. Their pastas were cooked to a perfect al dente.
We also ordered desserts (sorry, no pics, because we dug in so fast). The tiramisu was my favorite, a panacotta with berry compote was our cousin's fave (and also the toddler's), and baba Neapolitan (homemade rum cake), which the others loved.

The food was excellent. We especially loved the carciofi alla griglia (grilled artichokes with arugula). My husband has a gluten allergy, and we especially appreciated that the gnocchi (which was delicious) was GF. The panna cotta was also wonderful! We went to dinner super early, so the restaurant was very quiet when we were there.

The food was absolutely amazing! The meatballs were perfectly seasoned, and the bone marrow with salad was rich and flavorful. The squid ink gnocchi was fresh, soft, and unforgettable. And the desserts, the tiramisu and panna cotta, were completely off the chain. I can't wait to go back here again!!!!!!!
