What Diners Say
★★★★ "It’s great to have a casual dinner spot right in the Castro, perfect for dinner before a night out.
★★★★★Mo Gee4 months ago
We enjoyed a nice lunch here in October 2025. Homemade Butternut squash ravioli with asparagus was delicious. Garlic bread was yummy. Friendly service and very relaxing.
★★★★★ "A hidden gem of a place. The restaurant is unassuming and unfussy. Just sit down, order and enjoy your meal. The key to a good pasta place is that ingredients are fresh and it is served hot at the table.

★★★★ "This is our favorite place ( only place) to eat i the Castro. The prices seem pretty reasonable by city standards. The service is friendly and quick but casual not formal.
