"The restaurant offers friendly and attentive service in a lovely corner location with views of cable cars and the Bay Bridge. We visited for my wife's birthday and had requested special arrangements, which they graciously fulfilled by seating us by a window with the stunning view. The hostess and waitress were both exceptional. The wine selection featured many local, lesser-known wineries, including our favorite from the Russian River Valley, Pellegrini (2016 unoaked chardonnay). Our beet salad and chickpea soup starters were delicious and perfectly prepared. For the main course, my wife enjoyed the wild mushroom pappardelle while I opted for the pork chop on white beans with chimichurri sauce, both impeccably cooked with delightful flavors. The roasted Brussels sprouts side was exceptional, among the best we've ever had. The tiramisu dessert was light and tasty, with a caramel sauce instead of chocolate. The overall dining experience was relaxed and personalized, with a full crowd by the time we left. We had a pleasant conversation with a couple who were regulars and praised the welcoming atmosphere and delectable cuisine. It was our first visit, but certainly not our last."
