What People Are Saying About Magic Flute Garden Ristorante

Featured Review

Joanna Currier

In Short – This quiet hideaway is a Presidio Heights favorite for special occasions and intimate California-Italian dining. Wood floors, high windows and mirrors, wrought-iron chandeliers and subtle Mediterranean colors grace the enchanting dining room; in back, a flower-strewn veranda allows for romantic brunch, lunch or dinner encounters. The menu includes traditional, seasonal Italian specialties prepared with fresh local ingredients, and an above-average wine list.

Cute place

by tchnan at Citysearch

My husband choose this restaurant for it's location and reviews. We had a family Birthday celebration there. My daughter ordered the Chicken Marsala which was fantastically tasty, my son ordered the special risotto and crab cakes which he enjoyed very much. My husband had the trout pasta special and was quite pleased. My oldest daughter enjoyed the potato leek soup. However, my pasta came beyond al dente-it had to be sent back-my first send back ever! The dish never really did it for me (pasta bologense). I might try this restaurant again for the Chicken Marsala. The desserts were grand. The waiter gave us one dessert at no charge-a nice touch.

  • Pros: Atmosphere
  • Cons: Rushed service-under cooked Pasta
