"Montesacro in SoMa is the perfect group dinner spot before a show at the nearby Orpheum—it has extra-long tables that can handle an entire entourage. And the oblong Roman-style pinsas are light, airy, and the ideal sustenance for gossip sessions with your roommate’s partner’s neighbor friend. All pizzas topped with burrata are an instant hit, but we also love the tormarancio with soppressata and very thick tomato sauce. Not in SoMa? Their Marina location is also big-group-friendly." - julia chen 1, patrick wong
