"Pasta dishes were very good, the pizza was just ok we were excited about the reviews of the 5 star pizza but for us it was more like 3 stars. The desserts were amazing. The wait staff was ok nothing to rave about and the ambiance needed a reboot. But not bad of your stuck in north beach and don’t know where to eat. We are going to try the mission one and see if it’s any better."

The food was incredible! The location is fantastic, right in the center of Little Italy. Although the service was a bit slow, the staff were friendly and pleasant. View menu

This Italian restaurant is among the finest in San Francisco. The Pollo Piamontese is the best you can find in the city. It's a must-try when you visit San Francisco.

Highly recommend Luisa's Restaurant. I live in New York and have been going to her restaurants every time I come to San Francisco since 2006. The food is amazing and she is a treasure. You will not be disappointed.

Always absolutely delicious! We have been frequenting Luisa's for years at her various locations. My favorite dish is the carbonara—it's the best I've ever had anywhere. The Caesar salad is also fantastic. The food and service are consistently top-notch! View menu

Food is fine. Good quality of ingredients. Average size portions. Service quick and okay. BUT: Cold inside because they for some odd reason let the front door open even when cold outside. And the name is misleading: This is not a wine bar. Very limited wine list, so don't expect too much.

From the moment we walked in the door, Eva greeted us, showed us a nice cozy table for two in the corner/perfect for our anniversary! The passion fruit Bellini was delicious! We ordered the garlic bread to start it was warm and delicious. The food was everything and more!! Highly recommend stopping in anytime you are in San Francisco!!

"Earlier this year Salty 's was featured in one of the top 100 places to eat in the Bay Area in 2022, and after trying it a couple times, it 's easy to see why. Quality and flavor, great customer service, it checks all those boxes. I occasionally visit the 24 hour fitness on Van Ness, and Salty 's happens to be just few short blocks away which makes it perfect when I 'm looking for a post-workout sandwich. And for those that know me, I love me my sandwiches. On my latest visit, I decided to go with the 'Glorious B sandwich, which come with turkey, bacon, avocado, pepper jack, veggies, and garlic mayo. The blend of flavors and high quality of the turkey is no wonder it 's at the very top of the menu list. It 's one of those sandwiches, that you can bring to park and not need a ton of napkins to get through. It was well put together, with the ratio of all the ingredients matching well. Nothing overpowering, just sandwich perfection. The size of the sandwich I thought was the perfect size for my appetite. As I 've gotten older I can 't put down as much food as I used to, and after one-half I knew I could 've stopped eating, be content, saved the rest for later. But of course I ate the whole thing and nothing sounds better than taking a quick power nap right after. I love that their menu has so many different sandwich combinations, so definitely take time to check their menu before calling-in/walking-in to order because it 'll definitely save you some time. On my latest visit, I was in and out in 10 minutes. Definitely towards the top of my list of sandwiches in this part of town!"
