Sotto Mare

In San Francisco make special effort to try this Italian restaurant. Eclectic, but well worth the money. Service efficient, good choice & value on wine & beer. Limited menu (mostly very fresh seafood), but quite professional in selection & taste. No reservations taken for parties of two, but we found a seat in under 5 minutes. Would definitely return.

There are many people, and you have to wait for five minutes to be seated. The seafood western food tastes great, with ice water and bread before the meal🍞🍞🍞

🇺🇸It is generally recognized that the best eaters in San Francisco, California are Chinese and Italians. So, in addition to Chinese food, if you want to eat something different, you can come to North Beach (Little Italy). #Local Food #Eat a Seafood Feast #American Travel #San Francisco 🦀️Sotto Mare 🦞Their slogan is "Old-Fashioned Italian Seafood", and the Cioppino (San Francisco Fish Soup) here is a classic that has been passed down for many years. The raw materials are all freshly caught seafood by local fishermen, so the seafood varieties seen in the soup may be slightly different every day. Freshly caught seafood, rich tomato soup, and a piece of crispy bread are perfect! 🍕Tomaso’s 🍝This restaurant, founded in 1935, is definitely a "Godfather" level in the hearts of local Italians, and the owner is indeed a good friend of the original author of "The Godfather". The pizza oven here should be the most historic and unique one in San Francisco. The following restaurants that have won international awards all learned from this one. As for how delicious their pizza and pasta are: they even have their own brand of tomato sauce; there is a winery in nearby Sonoma that provides wine exclusively for this restaurant. This tomato sauce and wine can only be bought at Tomaso restaurant, not anywhere else. If you come here to order a pizza, you must try Margherita. The simple combination of a few ingredients is so delicious, which really shows the skill. There is basically no queue here at mealtime. 🇮🇹Tony’s Pizza Napoletana 🍟If you can’t queue up at the previous one, you can try this one. The pizza chef Tony Gemignani here is the world pizza champion. I won’t tell you specifically where his oven got the inspiration from [Dog head expression] In addition to pizza, this restaurant also makes some traditional Italian dishes. 🥖 Liguria Bakery 🍞A bakery that has existed for more than a hundred years. The Focaccia bread here is a great choice for breakfast or lunch. I remind you that you may not be able to buy it if you come too late, because they are really in great demand. ⚠️★The Little Italy area is not big, and the above 4 stores are recommended to be explored on foot. 🍷Jax Vineyards 🍇Only one day, no time to go to Napa Valley? It doesn't matter, you can taste the authentic wines from the Napa region without leaving downtown San Francisco. Jax Vineyards is a boutique winery located in Castoliga. A family business, they produce and sell their own products. They opened this tasting room in downtown San Francisco, which is equivalent to a direct sales store of the winery. Here you can taste more classic single grape selections and other wines. The simple and perspective environment here has also attracted many locals to invite friends to come here for a drink and chat. 🍜Dalida 🏆If you come to visit the Presidio (Fortress Park) in front of the Golden Gate Bridge, I recommend this fusion restaurant. It just opened last summer, but the chef team here has been nominated for the "James Beard Award" and made it to the semi-finals of the Best Chef in California. It focuses on Mediterranean-style fusion dishes, and the taste is remarkable.
