Their motto is: We season our garlic with food. Please help feel to browse our site http://theMenuMenu.com I wished we had some hyper links in San Francisco to help you out some more.

This is a neighborhood place; food is always excellent; service professional but friendly. If you prefer modernized interpretations of Italian, try Rose Pistola on Columbus. Reserve a week ahead or eat very early or late. Here you will be set back around $50 a head. For a good budget choice, try L'Osteria del Forno on Columbus near Green. I haven't been there in a while, but would think that you should get by for considerably less than either above. They also do wonderful thin-crust pizza. They have opened another venue called Vineria located on 16th St. near Dolores. This neighborhood is somewhat sketchy for a visiter, however, so should you choose this place, take a cab. Also, it is tiny and reservations made well in advance are a must. Enjoy. Pilgrim
