    I had a wonderful lunch today at Original Joe's. My server Sedat was outstanding and had great suggestions for menu items. I strongly recommend the Pineapple Punch (n/a), Joe's House Made Ravioli, and the Butter Cake. This was the best meal of the trip!

    Got sat in side dining room right next to a service station at the bar, which was not a good place to sit. Waiter didn’t offer to change for clean plates until almost the end of the meal. Ask to be in the main dining room if at all possible.

    This is a very small restaurant with a real Italian feel. The food was great My veal piccata was one of the best I have had. My mother’s lobster raviolis were also very good. The service was great. Friendly and knowledgeable. If you like quaint atmospheres with authentic Italian food, I recommend Cesario’s. Make a reservation-the place was packed.

    We loved our night at Osso Steakhouse. With the exception of one person who did not like the way his steak was prepared, everyone else thought the food was super yummy. Crab cakes - exceptional. Branzino - exceptional. Petite Filet - perfect. Appetizers (I'm looking at you cheese bread!), salads and sides - quite memorable. Wine list - fun to peruse and with the help of our waiter, we found a lovely pinot that worked for the table. We all loved the waiter and the other staff - so warm and friendly and helpful. We left happy. Very happy. When I am next in SF, I will return.
