Restaurants near Travelodge at the Presidio

Great restaurant with charm and culinary excellence.

One of the most delicious and reliable restaurant experiences in SF. I always feel like I'm in Shelley’s home when I visit A-16 its such a cozy unpretentious space, and the food always feel home cooked (as it is!). never fancy, wonderful rustic, and delicious. Last night’s meal was exceptional…Starting with a small order of sandwiches with mozzarella, parma ham, followed by a magnificent carrot dish with currants and almonds, a braised artichoke seaped in a side of olive oil infused breadcrumbs, pureed fava with greens and homemade flat breads, a superb Funghi Pizza with a slight spark of chili, and lemony pasta with fresh tiny fresh catch shrimp….no room for dessert! Also, the spirit of the staff is a particular highlight of the workings of A-16. All roads of course lead to owner Shelley Lindgren's warm hospitality , Valerio the master of the kitchen, Dario server extraordinaire, our lovely server Sunny and newcomer (to me!) Bea , and sadly missing the names of another server who finished with us who was delightful, and the host who greeted us. and other on staff who couldn't be nicer and more attentive. I think it's important to call people out for exceptional service. It's why coming to A-16 feels like coming home. And in this difficult restaurant market of SF, to haver place with this kind of consistency of staff speaks to Shelley and her visions and efforts. Bravo. cant wait to come back in

The food was wonderful!! The honey nut soup is a must have. It was so fresh and the presentation perfect. Service is attentive and quick. A wonderful dining experience!

Went to this restaurant for the hamburger; but was totally amazed at the biscuit with gravy and the banana bread with mascarpone and chocolate sauce! Would definitely go there again for the biscuit and the banana bread - both were superb!

Great cocktails and food. Small cozy bar with a unique menu.
