Some Great Places to eat in s.f.
Chef Nate Appleman and Master Sommelier Shelly Lindgren have created the epitome of a neighborhood trattoria. The food is paean to the cuisine of Campania and Naples Italy. Hand made pastas, thin crusts pizzas and house cured salumi are the staples, but the burrata mozzarella and the tripe are their specialties. Not to be missed. The wine list is is deep and wide, full of small Italian producers and interesting varietals. In spite of being packed nightly the service is friendly, extremely knowledgeable and helpful.
