   We showed up 15 minutes before our reservation and were told our table wasn’t ready. We totally get it! We left to wander around - it was a nice evening. We did, however, note that the table right next to the door was available as were several other tables deeper in the restaurant. When we came back at our appointed time, we were immediately ushered into the still-empty table by the door. We soon found out why. We did not bring winter parkas, so it was uncomfortably cold for the next hour and a half as people constantly came inside the small restaurant, holding the door open while they were told that their tables were not ready, and departed again. Service was very slow. It took over 40 minutes to get our fairly simple order out, and the food was nothing special. San Francisco has a lot of outstanding restaurants, but this is not among them. We will not be returning and don’t recommend that you waste your time there either.

   Very much enjoyed the cozy well appointed and comfortable setting. Professional kind staff. Food so very very yummy. Ingredients fresh and food temperature spot on. Price points reasonable. We are staying at Marine Memorial Hotel and Cesarios next door.

   This little place is a hidden gem! Cesario’s cozy dining room is tucked away below Nob Hill and offers quiet, and intimate surroundings to enjoy a leisurely delicious Italian meal at a reasonable price. Excellent food and service. Highly recommended.

    Caprese was a scrumptious app! Appreciated the freshly baked bread. And, the bruschetta, green salad, spaghetti and meatballs, and after dinner cafe drinks were delicious! You feel very invited from the moment you enter until departure. Service is kind, efficient and professional. Other than the tired looking window treatments (which have their own old world charm), this place is a gem which many already know and more should know. If your soul and belly need nourishing, head to Cesario's! Hope to be back many times. There is nearby pkg and location is perfect for pre theatre meal.
