We were in San Francisco for the first time ever on Easter weekend. We stayed at the Columbus Motor Inn and went for a walk around the neighbourhood. We passed the Albone and were very impressed by the menu. When we entered we were asked if we had a reservation. It was Friday evening of a long weekend and we... more

The subject line pretty much sums it up. Maybe we ordered poorly but after amazing meals with amazing atmosphere the two nights before, this was just okay. With so many other amazing restaurants in San Francisco, I would skip this one. more

We purchased 1/2 off gift cards from DiningDealsSF.com for Albonas. When we tried to make reservations for dinner there were some restrictions, not specified when purchasing cards. The ristorante would NOT honor the gift cards. more

After seeing the reviews on Tripadvisor I decided to try Albona. The first course was great, hard to muck up a salad. The home made ravioli was hard, undercooked and tasteless. The dessert of some chocolate creme caramel was covered in burnt caramel. I have eaten and worked in some top restaurants and this would have to be one of... more

My husband and I made reservations to this restaurant on a friday night. It was absolutely delicious. We ordered the gnocchi as an appetizer. It was so different from any other gnocchi I have tried.

You better get a reservation though, as it's very busy. We walked in and were seated promptly. The staff checked on us several times and the... more

My wife and I went here on our honeymoon in early April. It's a TINY place, so you are seated very close to people around you, and it's easy to miss on the street, so keep an eye out! The host was nice as could be and wonderful, he took our coats and constantly checked in on us throughout the... more

It's off the beaten path a bit, but a wonderful little Italian restaurant with a nice staff, good wine list, and great Italian cuisine. If you want some excellent Italian, don't want to spend too much for too little, this is the place. I'd definitely go back again. more

Truly, truly a hidden gem in San Francisco. 2 blocks from the Hyatt at Fisherman's Warf, this restaurant was a hit. I took a 25 person group, with much planning ahead with Michael, the owner. He completely personalized the evening, creating a warm and welcoming feel for everyone. It's a small place, but he went out of his way to... more
