Another Castro gem that is loved by locals and travelers 🥳. Opened in 1968, has been serving authentic, homemade pasta, pizza and Italian comfort food ever since. It feels like a time capsule when you walk in. Charming wood decor, friendly staff. It's nothing fancy but definitely authentic and genuine. If you're in the area, you should definitely give it a visit 🌞🤩.
