Do we have vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or allergy-friendly options?
Vegetarian Options: Vegetarians have the easiest time here, as a large portion of the "Antipasti" and Pizza sections are naturally meat-free:
Pizzas: The Margherita (with or without Burrata) and the Funghi Misti (wild mushrooms) are top sellers.
Pasta: Look for the Lasagna di Verdura (seasonal veggie ragu) or the Penne Primavera.
Starters: The Burrata Bruschetta, Eggplant Caponatina, and Cacio e Pepe Fries are all vegetarian staples.
Vegan Options: Unlike many Italian spots, we have specific vegan substitutes available for a small upcharge (usually $2–$3):
Custom Pizzas: You can substitute vegan cheese and vegan sausage on any pizza.
Naturally Vegan: The Spicy Marinara pizza is cheese-less by default (features olives and calabrese peppers).
Salads: Most salads, like the Roasted Beet or Arugula, can be made vegan by removing the cheese.
Gluten-Free (GF) Options:
Gluten-Free Crust: You can substitute a GF pizza crust on any of our Roman-style pizzas for approximately $3–$4.
Small Plates: The Skewers (Spiedini)—like the grilled salmon or chicken—are naturally gluten-free options.
Dessert: We often carry a Flourless Molten Chocolate Cake, which is a popular GF-friendly treat.
Note on Pasta: Most locations note that our pasta (pappardelle, rigatoncini) cannot be made gluten-free, so stick to pizzas or skewers if you are avoiding wheat.

What makes our restaurant unique?
We are located in one of the busiest shopping and dining corridors in San Francisco. Perfect for a mid-day shopping delicious meal!
The "Roman-Style" Crust: Our pizza is ultra-thin and crispy with a cracker-like "snap." We add olive oil to the dough for a golden-brown crunch and a distinct savory flavor.
The Communal "European" Vibe: We were a pioneer in the communal dining trend in SF. You won't find many private little tables; instead, we have long, wooden communal tables designed to force "camaraderie between neighbors."
Curated Agave & Spirit Program: We have a "One Vodka" rule and focus on complex Gins, Whiskeys, and Amari. We lean heavily into Italian spirits like Grappa, Fernet, and Aperol.
Aperitivo Culture: We are a top-tier Happy Hour destination. It typically runs Mon–Fri, 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM. You can find $8 Margaritas/Spritzes and $10 mini pizzettas.
Great for Families: While the vibe is "young professional" during the week, we transform into a family haven on weekends. We offer a dedicated Kids Menu ($8–$10 Penne, $10 Pizzettas), fast service, and interactive, shareable food.
