My wife and I had the misfortune of landing at this spot on a recent trip to the city. We visit often and always enjoy both old, favorite dining spots as well as new ones. While the restaurant is nice looking and well-situated, it leaves much to be desired. Our service was mediocre but I had to feel sorry for other hopeful diners who simply sat and sat and sat...Our waiter was inattentive, rushed and surly and, somehow, seemed to be aware that the food he was serving was substandard. We shared a caesar salad which was boring, dry but did have one crouton atop. When both entrees arrived, they appeared to be something taken from a box in a freezer and quickly heated up. If we had purchased them from a frozen section of a grocery store....we still would have been disappointed. In short, the place is simply awful. There are so many nice restaurants in San Francisco; I'd strongly suggest you skip this one.
Pros: Good location
Cons: Poor food and service

A good friend of mine took me on a lunch date years ago and I have always enjoyed this restaurant for being consistant. The seating both inside and the patio have always been a Gem, the food and service have been real and always on the 4star side from where I am sitting. Friday and Saturday nights offer music which can set back a reservation and that is somthing I have learned to roll with. This can be a problem but the restaurant has grown on me and I do feel I am at home in a nice homey cafe in Italy. So when I add the price, location, food and service it all deserves the 4 stars. I might be there with my wifefor a nice dinner or lunch and I know a group will all have a great casual time.
