“I love Piatti's in San Diego so I was excited to try Piatti's in Milly Valley (such a beautiful town btw). The restaurant is so so beautiful!

“Amazing service and food!!!!“

“Wow, what a great restaurant. As soon as we walked in we were greeted kindly by the hostess. She was so sweet and even checked in on us during dinner. Our server Joselyn was very helpful and attentive. She helped steer us in the right direction of what to order since everything on the menu looked delicious. The food was outstanding. The portions aren't super big but perfect which allowed us to order a few entrees. We started with the pan seared brussel sprouts, stuffed calamari, & roasted baby carrots. We then ordered the ricotta strangulet, pumpkin caramelle, braised short rib cappellacci, and the drunken mafaldine. Wow, everything was truly amazing and cooked to perfection. We didn't have room for dessert but our bill came with a tiny assortment of cookies which was the perfect way to end our meal. Thank you Sorrella, we will definitely be back to enjoy your amazing cuisine.“

“everything about the restaurant, from the heated outdoor dining, people who work there, the food so deliciously great especially the one that prepares and cook it, THE CHEFS, amazingly incredible they are and not so pricey above all.“

“Great leisurely lunch with girlfriends. Staff was friendly attentive. The butternut squash ravioli was to die for! Nice ambiance (we sat outside). Enjoyed!“

“It had been at least a decade if not longer since I last visited Zuni Cafe and it felt just as it did all those years ago in the best way possible! Lovely ambience as always and great service. I raved about the chicken for months to my kids and although the bread salad was perfect, the chicken served was quite dry. Aside from that, we enjoyed a lovely afternoon at Zuni“

“Excellent service and great food!“

“Amazing service and food!!!!“

“I’m here for business from Canada. Was taken here for supper by a coworker. The quaintest little restaurant, the owner and his wife are just awesome. The food is gorgeous! And his limoncello is the best I’ve ever had. Will be going back before I head home. ❤️❤️❤️“

“Excellent food and service. My friends from NYC enjoyed their dinners as well. Will definitely be back!“

“It was our first time and the service was amazing. Our dinner was more than excellent, the grilled pork chops with sweet potato puree best ever tasted. Great selection in red wine and great atmosphere! Owners were there and were very welcoming and down to earth! 100% recommended“

“My favorite thing here is the linguine with mussels. I never order anything else, so I can't really comment on the rest of the menu. My husband had the burger, which he thought was fine, and the couple behind us had the skirt steak which he wished he'd ordered. Wine and beer list is great.“

“One of the most underrated restaurants in SF. Samuel took great care of us. We got the Rigatoni Vodka, pasta of the house and the Tagliatelle Bolognese, which were all awesome. The Caesar salad might be the best we’ve ever had. Oh and they had live music. Great meal, special restaurant. Will come back again and again!“

“My husband and I enjoyed our dinner very much! He had the Paparadele and I had the beet salad and pizza. They were both delicious! We definitely will be going back!🍷“

“(Make a reservation)
We arrived at Capo’s around 7:20 pm on a Saturday and were told we would have to wait 40 minutes for a table.
As hungry travelers, we said thank you and as we were about to leave, the hostess finds a nook and sat us down outside. I appreciate the fact that she did us that favor.
There were no patio heaters, so if sitting outside or walking in during busy hours, expect to dine outside in the cold with no heat (during winter).

(The Staff)
It was a very busy night, but the staff did a spectacular job in checking in on us.

(The Food)
The appetizers come in a reasonably sized portion, we ordered the garlic bread with mozzarella and was given a complimentary dish of olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
My partner ordered the meat lasagne and I ordered the rigatoni alla vodka with smoked pancetta. The food was really good, it’s unlike anything I have ever had.
Take in mind that the dishes do serve up to 2 people, on busy nights it make take a bit to get your food, and regular pizzas take up to 20 minutes to bake, deep dish pizzas take up to 45 minutes to bake (but they look like they are worth the time!)

(Conclusion)
I would have loved to sit inside, the vibe is really nice. If you are looking for authentic Italian food with a nice atmosphere and friendly staff, book a reservation at Capo’s.“

“Lovely friendly Italian wine bar and delicious restaurant. Fresh innovative salads, pastas and main courses. Highly recommended.“

“From start to finish, the service was stellar. Everyone had warm smiles and welcomed us in. Food was incredible. We sat at the bar and witnessed all the food being prepared. We got the papperadelle and red snapper special. DELICIOUS! The team is hard working. Great local place to support.“

“Awesome yummy food with a friendly atmosphere and Great Service“

“The food here is always exceptional. Dishes are very creative and flavorful. Wines and deserts to pair are also great. Though the service is lacking for the experience you're paying for. Our waitress came to check only once besides taking our order. The water pitcher was frequently empty and drinks took far too long to arrive. This restaurant could be great with more waitstaff and better training, but right now it's just good.“

“Great Service and food. The waiter was amazing and recommended great wine and food“

“Awesome food and outstanding service“

“A wonderful first time experience at Luna Blu with my sisterfriend Betty on Wednesday, June 29th. Excellent, friendly service by Chrissie and she was kind enough to make suggestions since I am a Vegan. THANK YOU Chrissie. The owner took a moment to come to our table and we expressed our satisfaction and delight with her. Plan to visit again. Smiles from Baltimore.“

“Great food!! Service was fantastic. Consistently good!“

“Food is incredible and the service is second to none. Best place in the marina.“

“One of the best tasting pizza I’ve tasted I highly recommend this place.“

“My wife and I went here for a Italian supper and wow was it good! Only good things to say about this place, and the best service we have had In years. We were very impressed!“

“The food and wine are fantastic!“

“From the moment we walked in everyone was so kind and attentive. We had the beet salad: light but delicious and fresh,
Pappernelle Pasta with Oxtail was simply pneominail (melted.in my mouth), sausage pizza (very flavorful)
Worth the visit and loved chit chatting with Chantel!!“

“This place was one of the best highlights of our trip!! Real Italian food. The owners were real gentlemen. The way that they worked that restaurant was amazing. I was amazed by their food and service, both authentic. My friend and I had the best time. We would go again and again!“

“While visiting San Francisco for work, I had the pleasure of dining at Cafe Tiramisu, and it quickly became a highlight of my trip! From the moment I walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming – Giuseppe and Christian went above and beyond to make me feel right at home. Christian, my server, recommended the lobster escargot, and I have to say, it’s one of the best dishes I’ve ever had! The Spaghetti Nero with house-made pasta and local seafood was equally outstanding. This family-owned restaurant prides itself on creating as much as possible in-house, and it truly shows in the quality and freshness of the food. As the name would suggest, the tiramisu was also top notch. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with both cozy indoor and charming outdoor seating. Whether you're looking for an intimate meal or a great spot to relax after a long day, Cafe Tiramisu is a must-visit. You won’t be disappointed! I will absolutely return anytime I’m in San Francisco.“

“Great atmosphere, impeccable service, friendly & welcoming staff. Most of all, great food. This is our second time and it didn’t disappoint. We’re visiting from SoCal in Orange County. Thank you!“

“Beautiful locale, cozy and delicious food.“

“A true step back in time! A relaxed, neighborhood restaurant that doesn't pretend to be something it isn't. Great portions, very consistent food at good quality and reasonable prices to boot. Right in the heart of North Beach, this place should be on your radar for a cozy dining g experience.“

“It's great to see specialty shops like these. Pasta is what they focus on and specialize in. The restaurant part of the store let's us taste their pasta properly and perfectly made. It's also a reference on how the pasta is prepared. Try it, like it, but it and make it at home! Awesome pasta and variety.“

“My friend & I loved the food at Serafina - it was just our waiter that made the experience less positive. We had a reservation, ordered multiple dishes & wine. But he chose to rush us through courses; asking about the next course before we even took a bite of our appetizer & even taking my bread plate mid morsel-to-oil-dab. My friend finally made it obvious by saying, "don't worry we'll get out of your hair soon" & only then did he snap back into reality & mumble that , "you don't have to leave so quickly" Really sir? You weren't even full & it seemed like you were RUSHING to get us OUT of the restaurant ASAP. I understand we're all human & everyone can have "a day" but ... totally changed the experience for us.“

“Non-American pizza and pasta with very reasonable pricing;

Since we just waked over from the farmers market at the ferry building we ordered margarita and calamari as a light lunch for 3. The pizza dough was perfectly light and puffy with a thin crispy crust + hint of firewood and paired perfectly with the freshness of the tomato basil and mozzarella. The calamari was slightly tough in texture but the dish in general was still excellent. Really loved the vegetables since they carried so much flavor and umami from the olive oil and calamari!

We were seated outdoors and the server very kindly rearranged the tables so we’d be in the shade (tysmm!) the people indoors were watching football and it was so cheerful to see them cheering (and singing) after Real Madrid scored a goal;

Loved the atmosphere loved the food and it’s a place we’d definitely come back to visit again!“

“The food was amazing, home cooking at its best! My whole family, including my picky eaters, loved the food!😋“

“Very nice portions and very friendly! Enjoyed the people and the food!“

“Took a chance on this highly rated neighborhood restaurant. It's very small and the tables are closer together than I prefer. However, I was happily surprised by the excellent service and amazing food. Both our entrees were delicious and really "homemade". The limoncello cheesecake dessert was also exceptional. The value for the money was also great. Highly recommended.“

“Wonderful food and service. Highly recommend!“

“Great vibe and service! Outdoor seating is cozy and clean, lovely place to stop by for the midday bites, drinks and some casual chitchat. Loved the burrata crostini, calamari and salami pizza. Would love to go again and try out their dinner and lunch menu some time.“

“New Italian menù from an Authentic Italian Chef. Fresh, tasty, different from the usual even for a quick drink and snack. Couzy little restaurant, plenty of free parking spaces and friendly atmosphere. love it!“

“The best Italian I’ve ever had. Great service great drinks as well.“

“Delicious food and excellent service! Highly recommend!“

“My wife and I had our 5th Anniversary dinner there this weekend - we loved every minute! The menu was exquisite, the service friendly and professional, and the ambience was so charming! The chef came out to greet us, and we complimented her on our wonderful dining experience. Highly recommend for a very romantic dinner!“

“Exceptionally helpful & friendly staff cooking superb food in a very chill environment. A must visit in the city.“
