Best Family Style Restaurants in Fort Point Channel

Contessa is a delight that you cannot refuse! I enjoyed an incredible Wednesday lunch on a beautiful early afternoon. The atmosphere of the restaurant is beyond exceptional — I even had the pleasure of meeting the florist for the establishment, of whom was as beautiful as her designs. I indulged in a quaint solo lunch, to celebrate the release of my first poetry book. Francisco took great care of me, from start to finish. The Seasonal Bellini was a refreshing treat, as I enjoyed the Daily Imported Burrata as my Antipasti. The presentation & taste was perfection. Next on the table was the Ricotta Gnudi di Pecora, which may I recommend. . . This was undoubtedly the BEST dish that I have ever experienced. There is significant passion and purpose poured into this dish — applause to the entire culinary team for this piece. Seriously. If you are fond of great company, thoughtful wine, and outstanding cuisine — Contessa is a must. Special appreciation for the team who made this visit extraordinary.

Fantastic service and food. You’re missing something if you don’t go.

Everything was great! Staff recommended items and made some special drink combos for us.

The food and the service were both excellent. The menu featured several unique offerings.

This is a great Cuban restaurant. They have taken Cuban food and refined it and added unexpected delicious ways of preparation. I love Cuban food and this restaurant is preparing deliciously. It is also on a pedestrian only street it has a sophisticated casual European feel. Go. You will be pleased.
