Best Historic Restaurants in San Pablo

First time. We came for graduation. Beautiful building and space. Food was delicious! Great value too. Portions generous IMO. Service was a tad slow - took a while between courses and check back. We chalked it up to a busy night. Would definitely return.

Skates has been a great place since we started coming there, over 30 years ago. We just celebrated our anniversary there as a nostalgia trip (we now live in Colorado) and the food and service were just as great as always. Great location and great ambience!

Thank you for a wonderful evening. The food was amazing, the service exceptional and the music was fabulous. An experience that these two Aussies will treasure and remember as a highlight of our visit to San Francisco.

We started at Happy Hour and didn't want to leave :) This place is truly a neighborhood gem. Along with good food and drinks, the aura was top tier. There was a nice mix of families, friends, couples and everyone seemed to have a great time. The owner was there watering the flowers and flashing his welcoming smile to the guests. The interior is so well put together, comfortable yet elegant, and lives up to the tagline "swanky pizza lounge." We would 100% recommend and will be going back to try more dishes. For the food - we had the meatballs appetizer with the fried dough, vodka rigatoni, little gem salad with anchovy, caccio de pepe, blueprint pizza and canoli, shared between two people. Plenty of food with a small container of leftovers for midnight snack. At one point we mixed the meatballs with the rigatoni and they complemented each other well. I personally enjoyed the house chili sauce and added a touch of that to the pizza and rigatoni with a dash of chili flakes. It adds a very light spice w/out changing the flavors too much. They have a good selection of wines, spirits and cocktails. But just in case you wanted to bring your own bottle of wine, there is no corkage fee. We were so elated, it's unique and is much appreciated. The cannoli flight with a shot of espresso was a perfect way to finish the meal.

food was great, and the view and ambience are unbeatable, and our server was very nice, but the service was extremely slow but I will go back again because they've just reopened under new management and they have a good menu as well.
