I went to San Francisco with my wife for a short 4 days stay. I was told to go to Fishermans Warf to get my seafood but prefered to go to Sotto Mare based on the tripadvisor reviews. Even the taxi driver had problems finding the place! I arrived without a reservation and we were given a place at the... More

We visit this awesome little restaurant every year when we are in San Francisco and wish we could eat here once a week. Fun, good food and great prices. Make sure you try the cioppino for two and just have the bread with some white wine. I Gaurentee you will love it and be stuffed. The first time we sat... More

The owner is a character and runs this establishment with military precision. The fish was superb. Definitely worth a visit

Read about this on TA and it was also recommended by our walking tour guide earlier in the day. We went without a reservation and were warmly greeted and given a glass of wine to sip on while we waited for a spot along the bar to open up. We stepped outside to wait at table and were called and... More

Again, we read about this through Tripadvisor. We don't like to go where the "tourists" go, and glad we found this place... We made a reservation and ate here just last night. Nothing fancy but you will be happy and satisfied with your food and the price. Even my husband's cousin & his girlfriend who live in SF were very... More

I had the halibut special, it was served with a very simple caper sauce, with steamed vegetables. It was excellent. The place used to be a cafe and still has the stool seating in addition to a few tables. Its crowded and a little noisy. But its a fun atmosphere! I will stop by here every time I am in... More

This little place had the most fun atmosphere! We were greeted by the owner and informed there was a short wait, so she offered a complimentary glass of wine. The wait wasnt more than a few minutes and was well worth it! We sat at the bar, and got to see how all the action goes down. All the staff... More

Cramped, joyous, noisy, and fun! Not the place to propose marriage, but wonderful, upbeat atmosphere, and GREAT food. I had the ciopino with a friend. Others had scallops, and Crab Louis. Not real Louis dressing. If the other food had not been so great, I would have docked them a couple of points. Can't wait to go back. Buon apetito!

We went here about 2 weeks ago, a Tuesday night around 7:30pm and still only managed to score a seat at the bar. We ordered the Linguini with seafood and Grilled Sand Dabs (fish, recommended by the waitress). Both meals were cooked to perfection with delicious flavours. You can see the chefs cook everything, and all the staff were super... More
