"If you’ve ever fantasized about becoming a regular at a place where the staff knows your wine preferences, Sunday dinner order, and your dog’s dietary restrictions by heart, Nob Hill Cafe is a great place to start. The candlelit old-school spot near the Fairmont serves the exact brand of classic, cream-laden Italian pastas that you’ll want to inhale on a chilly city night, like solid spaghetti carbonara and heaping portions of penne vodka. It’s walk-in only here, but that shouldn’t stop you from scheduling a monthly standing appointment for family dinners or date nights before a show at The Masonic. You’ll be greeted by name soon enough." - julia chen 1, patrick wong, lani conway
