   Our experience was wonderful. There was a problem with my entree however I was fine keeping it but immediately, without me having to ask, our waitress remembered the other dish that I had been deciding between and offered to bring it out. Intuitive kind staff and wonderful food…amazing combination!

   It's always a pleasure to dine at our local bistro. The service is so warm and friendly. We celebrated a family birthday and they put up a birthday banner and presented him with a card from the staff. A lovely and warm touch to a wonderfully delicious meal. Thank you.

   We celebrated my spouses birthday at the restaurant. We were greeted by a lovely birthday card. The service was exceptional, very attentive and professional. We enjoyed the house-made focaccia bread, ceasar salad, the clam pasta, the tuna putranesca, and 2 cannolis. Everything was delicious! We have a lovely chat with the manager before paying our bill. So happy to have this upscale addition to the neighborhood.

   Wow! 1st time and this is a Great Place! Loved the Boquerones Toast, Arancini, Yellowfin Carpaccio and Focaccia! Then, a very fine Caesar salad! Rigatoni, Gnocchi, Pork bistecca, and the fried chicken! All....outta the Park! Believe it or not...saved room for dessert with the tiramisu and affogato. Wow!

   Dinner at Ofena, a quaint Italian gem, was nothing short of amazing. The steak and pork chop were incredibly tender, flavorful, and sliced to perfection. Paired with a fresh, beautifully balanced clam pasta, it was a meal to remember. We especially appreciated being able to linger over dessert and wine without feeling rushed, even after closing time. Warm ambiance, thoughtful service, and dishes made with care—I’ll definitely be back.

   Still one of our favorites, maybe the favorite. Top drawer everything: food, service, comfortable for having conversations with friends (noise level is minimum). Looking forward to returning.

   First timer! Went for happy hour even though I had a reservation, but they were very kind about explaining the differences! Appetizers and drinks were delicious! Perfect sized bites to pair with the spritz (and well priced)! Shoutout to the bartenders Casey and Paige. Super welcoming, and friendly and made sure we were taken care of! Will come back.

    We tried SF restaurant week menu but there was no value. For $35, we had a really small cup of soup, sandwich and small cannoli. Even if I buy lunch at a comparable restaurant, the price will be cheaper. I was very disappointed.
