This is the the sister restaurant to Seven Hills. The menu is small, but everything sounded delish. I had the lasagnette. It was different from everyday lasagna, but amazing. Many layers of thin pasta with bolognese sauce and parmigiana cheese. My friends both had the spaghettiini. It has the perfect amount of spice. They have a good wine list. We shared budino for dessert and it was fabulous.

This is a dark horse for SF’s best italian food (although I haven’t tried 7 Hills yet). The service is warm and attentive and every dish is delicious. Don’t skip the raviolo and the chicken.

As a visitor from out of town, I wasn’t sure what to expect—but I was blown away by both the quality of the food and the excellent service. I ordered the chicory salad, arancini balls (the charred scallion aioli is to die for!), and, of course, the famous raviolo—a true treat with its decadent brown butter sauce. I only wish I’d saved room for dessert! If I’m ever back in SF, I’ll definitely be returning. Thank you for a memorable meal!

We jumped off the Powell/Hyde Street cable car right in front of the restaurant, and had a fabulous dinner with great service. Very accommodating and knowledgeable staff.

In town for a few days and this was recommended by a local who lives on Russian Hill. It was terrific. The butter pasta with truffle was delicious. The squash blossoms appetizer and Arancini were sooo good. Staff was kind. A great pick!

Very pleasant. Friendly neighbour restaurant. Spills out onto sidewalk. Excellent selection of Italian wines. We had tuna carpaccio, spaghettin, scallops, burrata salad. Very tasty.

We got a last second reservation for three here on a Saturday night. The food was excellent! We had focaccia and red wine, both superb. We got the spaghttini, lasagnette, & Raviolio as our mains. The first two were great on their own, but the raviolio? Transcendent, absolutely incredible, easily the best dish we had while in SF. A must get. We did get a dessert, the strawberry & pistachio cannoili; this was fine I guess, but would definitely skip next time, the only item I was not impressed with.

Now, the service, so remember when I got that last second reservation for three? Turns out I had gotten it for two... This was for a reservation for 45 minutes before closing, btw. Nonetheless, the host was understanding and did everything he could remedy the situation. He explained we would have to wait a little bit longer, naturally, and that we do everything to make this happen. While we were waiting, he checked in several times to see how we were doing, update us, and provide us with a wine list. After a little while, he was able to get us seated, and the service continued to be excellent throughout service. Big points here. I know having idiots make resverations with the wrong amount of people must happen, and sometimes people are doing it on purpose, so I was very pleasantly surprised how much of an effort the host made to alleviate my stupid mistake.

To wrap, the spot is cute, small, with a fittingly short menu. But the choices are excellent, the ambiance is great, and the service is first-class - with very reasonable prices.

Delicious dinner, amazing neighborhood restaurant, the salads were very fresh and tasty. Mains were also very good. Just a little noisy, but 100% will come back again!

We have been a number of times, and we have never had anything but a wonderful experience and amazing food. I cannot recommend one item over another; everything is just so good. A small cozy restaurant, with an amazing team.
