Che Fico Pizzeria is the newest restaurant from the team behind the Italian Taverna Che Fico. Located just outside Chase Center in Thrive City, Che Fico Pizzeria is a lively and high-energy restaurant serving event goers and neighbors alike. The food menu is focused on pizza (of course!), with Che Fico's signature sourdough crust. Offered in two sizes, plus a slice window for those busy nights in Thrive City, we are pulling out all the stops on our pizza creativity. Beyond pizza the menu features a selection of antipasti and sandwiches. We are also thrilled to feature our incredible gelato and sorbetto, churned daily as soft serve. The restaurant itself features indoor and outdoor dining options, with a robust bar as the center point of the sprawling patio. Our incredible design partner Jon de la Cruz and firm DLC-ID have created a fun and welcoming space that highlights the beauty of our City by the Bay. We can't wait to welcome you!

    So sorry I do not remember our server’s name, because he provided amazing service. In fact, all the staff we interacted with were amazing. The food was more than delicious, it was mouthwatering. View of the bay is spectacular! Oh yes, he asked if we were celebrating any special occasion. We were out celebrating a birthday and anniversary. He surprised us with two tasty brownie bites. Trust me, dine here and you will not be disappointed.

    The ambiance was great, however there was a noticeable delay between our starters and entrees coming out. We ordered oysters - which were fresh, baked cheese and warmed olives, and the focaccia was deliciously herby. Swordfish, duck, and two steak frites were ordered as mains, all arrived together however the fries were dry and cold (as compared to the steak on the same plate). Overall the food and drinks were delicious.

    Outside terrace seating is the best. It’s Restaurant Week and the set menu they offered was totally worth it. Drinks, appetizers, soup, salad came as soon as we ordered, but entrees were taking a long time. we had a movie to catch so I asked for entrees and desserts to be served together, and they obliged.
