    Service was lovely. Food was beautifully presented and tasty. Wine selection varied. Just a bit noisy for us. We should have chisten 5 PM vs. 6 PM!

    It’s back! The latest iteration is a return to the original days. Food, service and atmosphere are what you’d expect in a San Francisco tradition. The place was alive, tables full and complete with a bar full of locals. Evening was what we’d hoped!

    The service was excellent. The waitress was very attentive and gave good recommendations. Excellent Caesar salad with just the right amount of anchovies. The espresso martini was impressive. The salmon was cooked to perfection, and the handmade tagliatelle was yummy, if a little thick for my taste. Overall, a lovely experience.

    This was a return visit to North Beach Restaurant since they reopened after the pandemic. The ambiance and service are just as good as they were in the past. The food remains excellent, although there have been some changes to the menu. I will definitely return to this restaurant.

    Absolutely gorgeous remodel of the space. Our server was not only very helpful with suggestions but he was also quite charming and warm. Amazing live music (Tuesdays and Wednesdays). The food was incredible. If you are a Ceasar salad person, this is a must! We had a few different pastas and gnocchi and everyone at our table loved their selection. We shared the stuffed zucchini blossoms which was also delicious but I’m pretty sure that’s only in season for a very small window of time. So very happy that this traditional North Beach institution is carrying on and doing so in such a beautiful way. Will absolutely be back soon
