Great bar with amazing ingredients and a Savage staff! Love the slightly hard to get to location! The drink menu rotates frequently so get the drinks you like when you can. It will cost a few more pennies so if on a budget this place may not be for you!

Amazing place if you like cocktails. The bartenders are super knowledgeable and can help you with any doubts. The menu itself is oysters and cocktails. The cocktails change every 7~10 days. You can also order a custom cocktail as long as you tell them what you like (I had a strawberry pass on old fashioned that was just delightful).

Enter on Mason street and go upstairs. Happy hour prices are half off iirc. There are oysters too!--the miyagi oysters were really good. I got 2 drinks and both were pretty good. Don't think you can go wrong with any drink 🤗

While I know it’s always hard to find someone that knows how to make an orgasm, this bar had none of the ingredients required. No cream, Kahlua, on Amaretto. Instead they wanted to give me a rum concoction that had a ‘creamy’ feel? Thanks but no thanks. Ended up with water :(.

Lovely little bar with average priced cocktails for the area. The ambience is the expected mix of mid century bric a brac and comfy velour seating. A very popular place for midweek dates. The service is good if nothing exceptional to write home about. Definitely give this one a visit and see if it's to your liking. Pictured drink is Tree Of Life.

Small space with craft cocktails. Watching the bartenders is entertainment in it's own. It's hard to find from the street, so might have to ask around.

Cool and relaxed cocktail spot in a neighborhood full of boring things. Friendly staff and stiff drinks make this fun. Entrance is on Mason and is a mostly unmarked door and a stairwell.

This place is awesome with fantastic drinks. Very inventive cocktails with a cool vibe. Highly recommended.

I was looking for good pizza around Union Square. Corzetti happens to be on the list. And even better they have happy hour everyday 4:30-6:30pm. We got a couple rounds of food and drinks - calamari fritti, baccala, polpette short rib and guanciale meatballs, margherita and vessalico pizetta, pizza spritz, and house beer. The happy hour pizetta is a smaller pizza that can be found on the regular menu. I gotta say the pizza crust is REALLY GOOD. That's a rare compliment coming from a pizza snob. The crust is crispy too and bottom with a soft chew in the middle. The ratio of the topping to crust is just right. The quality ingredients- fresh mozzarella, light tomato sauce, and higher quality soppressata made the pizza a real treat. All the other food we ordered were excellent - good ingredients and well executed. The cocktail menu looks very interesting as well. Looking at the menu, the bar is not afraid of using salt to accentuate certain flavors. The pizza spritz drink I got almost tastes like a Bloody Mary. The service was friendly and courteous from our server. The restaurant is well designed with an elevated relaxing vibe. Overall I'm very satisfied from the happy hour experience and I'd come back for more happy hour and for regular menu as well.

Corzetti was fine enough. The raviolis were the best part. The onion focaccia was bland and the onions were more of an annoyance than anything else (rather hard textually). The meatballs had an atypical flavor to them, kind of gamey, we couldn't figure them out. But they were nicely cooked, tender. The waiter warned us that the branzino would take over half an hour, and we approved it taking that long. It was pretty good. The potatoes and olives were nice. The kids pasta was the last thing to come out. They definitely forgot about it at least once. I reminded them after the raviolis came out, and they said they'd "check". But I think they had also forgotten when branzino came out, or maybe they didn't flag it as urgent after they first forgot. It would have been appropriate to comp it, but they didn't and I didn't ask. Overall it was $230 total for 5 people (2 kids), plus $35 parking across the street. Despite the website saying that parking is $10 at Mason O'Farrell Garage with validation, the garage that Google took us to titled Mason O'Farrell Garage did not honor $10 parking.

Good vibe, lots of seating options, bright and airy up front, intimate in back : ) The food was just okay... nothing to complain about but nothing knocked my socks off... the focaccia was decent, the pastas we had were fine. We went here because it was close to our hotel but I wouldn't seek this place out. Service was also just okay... nothing to complain complaints but no standouts. Pro Tip: Bathrooms are in the hotel, out the restaurant doors and up the stairs.

Make a reservation, they get very busy. Being off Union Square I made the assumption it would be touristy, but I was totally wrong. The food was fantastic. It's not your regular spaghetti and meatballs kind of place. And if you do get the meatballs, they are a little spicy! It was very busy when we went, and the service was still on point, kind, helpful. There is a decent menu for vegetarian too, so everybody in our group was happy.

Nestled near Union Square, Corzetti offers a cozy and inviting ambiance, making it a great spot for a night out in the city. The interior vibe is warm and stylish, creating an atmosphere that's both modern and welcoming. The pizza is undoubtedly a highlight--packed with flavor and perfectly crafted, it's a dish that leaves you wanting more. The pasta, while flavorful, fell short of expectations as it was overcooked and lacked the al dente texture that would have elevated the experience. Portions are on the smaller side, and the price point feels a bit steep for what you get. Overall, Corzetti shines with its pizza and ambiance, but there's room for improvement in execution and value.

A little underwhelming, especially considering it came up in the city's must try list. The service was ok, didn't have a drink order taken until after a few tables after we arrived did and our appetizer came out after our main course. To their benefit, they comped the appetizer. Easy to walk to, food was good. Ordered the chicken milanese which was a delicious and the ragu was also spot on with flavor, a little light on sauce and portion of pasta to braised beef. The environment in general seemed cool, great lighting, not too loud but enough going on to make it fun.

Let's jump right in! Corzetti sits right on yhe corner and is easily accessible. We were walking around and enjoying the sights when we stumbled across this gym. Upon waking in we were greeted promptly and seated. They do play light music which pairs well with the full bar selection and vibe that Cali is known for. The food was delicious and the drinks were top notch. Corzetti makes our list of places that if we came back to the bay area we would seek out again to enjoy!

Super delicious. I'm a huge fan or butternut squash ravioli, and this was definitely a hit. I came here with a few other friends for a birthday dinner, and we had a really lovely time. The drinks were also really tasty. I love the vibe here. Our waitress was super sweet and frequently checked in on us.

Made a reservation for 6:30pm with my friends and I'm glad we did because the place started to fill up around 7! The interior is beautiful, the bar area is also super nice. They have happy hour from 4:30-6:30pm everyday. We ordered the prosciutto san danielle as a starter and it was delicious! It came with focaccia, stracciatella, figs and prosciutto. The cheese was so creamy and yummy. Pairing all four together created the perfect bit that's both salty and sweet. For pastas we ordered the corzetti and the fazzoletti al pesto. Both were delicious, but my favorite had to be the pesto. The flavor was just superior! It had lots of cheese on top as well. The corzetti had an interesting texture and it was flavorful but the meat that came along with it was very salty making it hard to eat a lot. We also ordered the vessalico pizza to share and it was good but didn't blow my mind. I didn't love how oily the pizza was but the meats were tasty and I liked how the crust was thin and crunchy!

The Cesar salad! A must bc it's amazing. We also had another salad that was horrible. Raw egg yolk to mix in to the dressing with chunky tomatoes ( not heirloom) but they didn't clean the egg properly and the raw white was still in there, it was super unappetizing. The food needs some improvement. The cesar and a crab seafood pasta were the only 2 out of 5 dishes that came out perfect. Loved absolutely loved the ambiance and seating as well as the bar/ dining area separation very tasteful. Service was good but they guy was a bit too much but thats a personal preference honestly.

Perfect location for a pre- or post-theater drink and/or meal coupled with something at Curran or ACT, since they are steps away. We started with a round of cocktails--a Negroni for him and the olive leaf martini for me. Shared the tuna crudo and gem salad. We each got a pasta. The Corzetti was delicious. He thoroughly enjoyed his lamb one. We both had a glass of wine with our pastas, well recommended by our server based on our dishes. Pistachio gelato for dessert. Service was prompt and great throughout our visit.

Heard the hype about this place on Tiktok and honestly I think the food is just ok. The portions were pretty small. The pastas were yummy but not that memorable. Nothing to complain about the service and ambiance- both were great. Not sure if I'd come back but I'm not opposed to the idea.

In SF for a couple days and this was within walking distance of my hotel, so figured I'd try it. I placed my order online and within 10 minutes, it was ready. SUPER quick. The noodle shape was very interesting and the pesto was delicious. The pine nuts on top and the Parmesan were a great added touch. I do wish the portion was slightly bigger, but overall, it was very yummy. Would certainly recommend to people who are visiting.

Came here for my birthday dinner with some friends and have mixed feelings about this place. Food- we did somewhat family style so I ordered the focaccia pizza (best thing of the night 5/5) and the radiatori al ragu di agnello (2/5). My friends ordered the squash appetizer (2/5), the meatballs (4/5), gazette pesto (1/5), Caesar salad (didn't try) and the spaghettini alla vongole (didn't try). Overall I'd give the food 2.5/5, not the best flavors and very disappointing pasta. The hero's were the appetizers in a way and that's not a good thing. Service- S L O W. The waiter was nice but we randomly got some food after about 15 minutes then the rest of the food about 30-40 minutes later. We kept asking the waiter how much longer for the rest of the food and he'd just keep saying "5 more minutes". Now this is a Sunday night and the place was decently packed not overly by any means, I think the timing is just off to send random plates (not even just the appetizers) then the remaining dishes so far apart. Ambiance- probably the best thing about this place is its Instagram worthy dining room. The decor is right up my alley, eccentric with its oddly shaped light fixtures and busy wallpaper. Definitely recommend if you want a night out for great pictures with cute background but not if you want really good Italian food in the city. Forgot to mention cocktails: my friend and I got the Jungle cat and the il cetriolino which were 0/5 not good. They were supposed to be "sweet" which is why the waiter recommended them but it just tasted like a spirit forward disaster. Kind of disappointing for a birthday dinner if you want great Italian food but the vibes and the company made it a great night.

We ordered this pizza from Happy Hour menu. Unfortunately it's so oily that the entire piece became soggy quickly. It's SOAKED in oil. We gave feedback to the waiter. Hopefully he can delivery the message to the kitchen staff.

Corzetti is so cute! My coworkers and I came on a weekday during lunch and it wasn't busy at all. Our server was friendly and attentive and our food came quickly. All the appetizers were good but the Caesar salad was my favorite. The pizza had thin and puffy crust and my worker devoured the entire thing. All 3 pastas were delicious but the pesto was my favorite! I would come back for just the pesto pasta, Caesar salad, and Arnold Palmer.

If I continue thinking about the meal for days afterwards, it deserves 5 stars! We shared perfectly light and tender Fritto Misto, a Santa Margherita pizza, and a Salsiccia pizza. Both pizzas were cracker thin, dripping with oil, and scrumptious. It's hard to say which I enjoyed more, but definitely either choose or avoid the Salsiccia pie depending on your heat tolerance. It was super spicy (something I'm obviously a fan of). The wine selection was also great, service was on point, and the ambiance was comfortable and lovely. We had a lot of great Italian food in the city this weekend and this ranks right up there.

Went here on Sunday around 6pm with my husband and our little one. I made reservation just few days in advance and it was easy to find availability. We seated and we ordered right after few items: focaccia di recco, fazzoletti al pesto and radiatori with lamb ragù! Focaccia was good even though it's not like the one you eat in Liguria, but I liked it. Make sure you like strong cheese. Then my dish was the fazzoletti al pesto and the portion was big and I liked it. It's not a light plate, but it was a good pesto in my opinion (for sure there is garlic in it ahaha). My husband and my little one ate the radiatori and they really enjoyed the dish (it was good). We had also two glasses of wine and that's it! The restaurant has a really nice decor and the staff is very friendly. Overall it was a good experience and we missed the fact that they have also happy hour till 6:30pm, so next time!

Delicious Italian food that hits the spot! It's located pretty close to union square but it actually wasn't hard to find parking on a Sunday evening (the union square sfmta garage is close by too). We easily made a reservation through OpenTable. The restaurant filled up a little around 7pm so it's nice to make one if you can but not necessary if you're going earlier in the evening. The tables are large and not too crowded, so it's a nice place to eat with friends and catch up. My favorite dishes were the prosciutto San Daniele and pesto pasta - the flavors were so rich and felt a little unique even for classic dishes! The service was great, and we were often checked on to make sure we had everything we needed. Even after we finished eating we didn't feel super rushed to leave and were enjoying the atmosphere. Loved our dinner here and would love to come back and try more dishes!

Corzetti is an absolute must-visit for brunch in SF! I stopped in after a night out and ordered the smoked salmon tartine with a poached egg--it was flawless. The flavors were fresh and perfectly balanced, exactly what I needed. The service? Top-notch. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. If you're looking for a great brunch spot in the city, this is it. I'll definitely be back!

Came here for a girls night and it was the perfect environment! The interior was beautiful and the food was perfect as well! Service was great and everything came out very promptly. I highly recommend trying this place out!

Made a reservation for our group of 4 for a Saturday at around 6. We were sat promptly. The restaurants interior design was an appeal for the reservation. We enjoyed our food but nothing we had was exceptional. The jungle cat cocktail was enjoyed by all 3 of us who ordered it. The SPAGHETTINI ALLE VONGOLE was a bit underwhelming in comparison to what I've had in other Italian restaurants. Be advised parking in this area will run you from $20-30.

We were looking for a yummy dinner place! We found it across our hotel! I ordered a pizza and it came with broccoli. Yes with broccoli! Uff .. it was good! I love broccoli on pizza now . Just as I love pineapple on pizza! Some things just do belong on pizza! Stop it , haters .. do not , I repeat .. do not say a word. LOL Corzetti is such a cute spot. Love the vibe! Dim light which I love!! Too many restaurants have bright lights! It wasn't busy so were weee able to relax. Since on a work trip .. we needed the bill separated in 6. 3 credit cards and then for 3 boozy drinks . The server was awesome and made no fuzz about it, like at all. At other, SF restaurants it was such a huge deal though they had their square machines! This server said it was the easiest thing to do and was so friendly!!! Definitely likes his job! I would be back when I visit SF again !

AMAZING!! such good pizza, pasta, and dessert! The vibes in here were absolutely gorgeous and they gave you a Corzetti Italy postcard and it's so cute! Truly an amazing glaze and service was so good! we had the spicy pepperoni pizza, the pesto pasta, and the Corzetti pasta! And the Corzetti pasta was the most amazing thing I've ever had!

My friend and I had a great Saturday night dinner at Corzetti. It's a restaurant that just opened in Union Square and we are foodies always looking for new places to discover. This is an enthusiastic five stars on food, service, ambiance and overall value. We shared the facaccia, roasted beet salad, salsiccia pizza, Corzetti pasta and Tocco (beef shoulder with crispy polenta). Every dish was on point and I recommend all of it. If you are wondering if the focaccia is worth the carbs, the answer is yes. The pizza is a really nice thin crust. The Corzetti pasta was the standout dish for me. As usual, we ordered way too much food and I had plenty of leftovers. I had the chinotto spritz as my non-alcoholic drink for the evening and that was great. I appreciate that more and more restaurants are offering solid non-alcoholic options - it just makes business sense. Service was fast, attentive but not fussy. The restaurant feels roomy and they had great 80s music playing that evening. The location is perfect for tourists/visitors and people looking for dinner before a show at the nearby theaters. With tax and tip, this was $85 per person, which is incredible value for the quality of the food. This place is a solid addition to all the great Italian restaurants in SF. Highly, highly recommended!!!

Gorgeous space - we all just marveled at the interior for awhile as we sat down. Had this place bookmarked for awhile so excited to finally make it down here. Great wine list, we shared a bottle of Bordeaux. They have house wine on tap too. We opted for the restaurant week menu and took the chance to try out different dishes. All were fantastic and we were a happy bunch! Apps - Can't go wrong with fritto misto - the calamari was perfection, salt cod fritters are fun, and the fennel!! My friends said the Caesar was amazing actually, I'm curious about the polpette, and the asparagus pizza.. next time! Pasta - The fazzoletti pesto was pretty much perfection and I was honestly pretty full after that. Literally all their pastas sound AMAZING. Can't wait to come back. Mains - I preferred the branzino to the tocco, but I'd always prefer branzino anywhere. Both were simple but elegant. I think because I make pot roast with polenta at home the tocco was underwhelming. Dessert - I'm embarrassed to say we managed to kill the desserts too - the panna cotta I could eat bucketloads of. The gianduja crostata was so rich and decadent without being overly sweet. Last but not least, service was great as well. How often do all the stars align anymore? We already talked about coming back with other friends who also happened to go this weekend.. oh they have happy hour too if you work around here! Ok only negative is the restrooms located out and up from the restaurant, which I recall from dining at the restaurant prior to Corzetti and the bar upstairs Benjamin Cooper (RIP I loved you so). Weird quirk of the building perhaps. They're nice restrooms though!

During our visit to San Francisco in August, this was one of the restaurants we ate. We were looking for Italian food and it was in the area we were visiting. Our order: Santa Margherita w/pancetta pizza ($21), Marinated Olives ($7), Side Ceasar ($8), Spaghettini Alle Vongole ($26), glass of Friuliano ($16), and Amaretto Sour ($13). My drink, Amaretto Sour was GREAT - 9.5/10. Focaccia bread was 9/10, Vongole pasta dish was 8/10, pizza was really good 8.5/10. I would definitely eat here again.

Ideally, I'd give this restaurant a 3.5/5. Corzetti brings the vibrant coastal cuisine of Liguria to San Francisco's Union Square, blending traditional flavors with modern twists. My friend and I started off 2024 SF Restaurant Week with Corzetti. The big bar and the dining area were bustling with diners when we went there on a Friday night, creating a lively and upbeat scene. Our server was attentive and friendly, though there was a bit of a wait between courses when they forgot to put in our main dish order. However, they were very apologetic and overall provided great service. Definitely get their focaccia. The bread was light, buttery, and flavorful, and the olive tapenade was the cherry on top. Please note that this isn't included in their restaurant week menu. The real star of the show was the restaurant week menu. For $65, you get a whopping four-course meal with some seriously generous portion sizes. We were practically stuffed by the second course! For starters, we had 2 options to pick from. Both my friend and I picked the Fritto Misto. The fried squid and cod fritters were light and crispy but very salty. The fennel offered a refreshing touch, and the chili aioli provided a nice kick, but it was a lot to finish for the first course. There was only one option for the second course. The Fazzoletti al Pesto was a bit of a letdown. While the pesto itself was vibrant and flavorful, the pasta itself was a bit overcooked and mushy. I also wasn't a fan of the pine nuts in the pasta (but that's a personal preference). The main course had 2 options to pick from. Since there were 2 of us, we tried both options. The Tocca, a braised beef shoulder, was melt-in-your-mouth tender. The polenta had a nice char, and the jus added a rich depth. The Branzino alla Ligure was also good. The sea bass was cooked well, with a crispy skin and delicate flesh. The fish itself was lacking in flavors, but the olives, fennel, and rosemary complemented it beautifully. For dessert, the Panna Cotta was a light and refreshing option. The amaretto cookie crumble added a welcome textural contrast, and the strawberries offered a burst of sweetness. However, the Gianduja Crostata was a bit too sweet for my taste. The chocolate hazelnut filling was rich and decadent, but the combination with the amarena cherries and whipped cream became cloying after a few bites. If you are looking for something light, go with the Panna Cotta. The Gianduja was very dense. Overall, Corzetti is a good option for a lively dining experience, especially if you're looking to take advantage of their restaurant week menu.

Very cute restaurant. Yummy cocktail menu, loved the olive leaf martini. And the food was great! I've been here twice and tried a variety of dishes. Would recommend sharing plates, so you can try it all! Can be loud with the after work crowd.

Food - So, funny thing...I didn't like a single thing on the menu without subs but I still find the menu endearing. My tagline on here is the finicky foodie so that's not a surprise or their fault. I still want to go back and try more things. Service - I honestly can't remember but that's probably good right? Ambiance - Whoever their interior designer was deserves a shoutout. I loved the vibe. I call it cozy but make it expensive and also italian but not ITALIAN. Snagged a matchbook from the host stand and they are the good matches lol.

Walking from Union Square to Corzetti and was so surprised of how bright and gorgeous it looked! Not so many customer at the time my friend and I went. Our server seated us right away and we started with coffee.... Well mine was Espresso Shakerato :) Followed by Fristo Misto and Corzetti and Spaghettini Alle Vongole... then Lemon Drop and Pistachio ice cream.... Food tasted good but little too salty for my liking. Next time I might order Focaccia with my entree . Drinks were so great..... while the ice cream tasted really good. Parking in street is difficult!! But there are plenty of paid garage nearby. Restroom is located in the hotel next door on the second floor.

On a particularly windy night I ducked into this restaurant on a whim. It was accross the street from my favorite family owned union square hotel and ive been eyeing it for a while now. I didnt have a reservation but was able to get a seat in the lounge/bar area. The waitstaff was very attentive and i didn't feel neglected in my little, not the dining room area, dining area lol. From what I could see the restaurant was pretty and had nice mood lighting, the bar was large and was filled with patrons who were lively and jovial. I had the Prosciutto San Danielle it was a starter with focaccia, stracciatella, and figs. It came out like on a platter deconstructed and i wasnt sure if I assembled it correctly but i made open face sandwiches with it basically and it was delicious. The bread was nice and had enough heft to it to hold up the meat, fig, and cheese spread im assuming im not sure what the spread was but it all was quite delicious. My main was the Corzetti pasta. Ill have to admit ive never had that type of pasta before. It was flat circular pasta. But it was good and the sauce was delicious. I enjoyed how the pasta had a denser bite to it and the salty bits on the pasta added nice texture and flavor to everything. I dont know what hen of the woods is but it was yummy. I could have ate 4 more servings easily. Before dessert I popped into the restroom, thats in the adjacent hotel that the restaurant is connected to. Upon my return i was greeted by my dessert spoon placed there to hold my table as someone had tried to swipe my seat. (Im like seriously people make reservations.... lol jk ) I couldn't make up my mind and since i never know how long it will be before i return to the bay i ordered thr Mascarpone cheesecake with raspberry compote and the Buttermilk Pana Cotta with pomegranate and candied pistachios. I felt the cheesecake was good and the compote went well with it. I dont know that im aware of a difference made by the Mascarpone might help if i even knew what Mascarpone was but it was a good cheesecake. The pana cotta was very good. I liked the lightness of the pana cotta and the pomegranate gave it a nice pop that added texture and juice from the seeds. The pistachios was a nice crunch as well but i dont know that i have the sophistication to distinguish candied pistachios flavor from regular chopped pistachios. It was a lovely way to to spend a solo night in San Francisco, tucked away in a cozy restaurant enjoying delicious food watching the hustle and bustle of tourists and shoppers as they brave the unforgiving wind and commiserate the remnants of Karl the fog. It was quite a pleasant dining experience in an relaxed and welcoming environment.

Super cute ambiance and amazing Italian food. We thoroughly enjoyed our pizza plus the decadent seafood stew. The drinks were also on par. We came for a yelp event and was so pleasantly surprised by the flavors of each dish. The pizza wasn't too heavy and had a good crust. Our Cesar salad actually had anchovies in it, which I super appreciate. Many other patrons got pasta, which seems like what they're known for. Would definitely return for a cute date night or night with the girls.

Shout out to Karina, who was our server that evening. She was absolutely amazing. Giving us the recommendations and greeting us well we had our baby with us. She was so pleasant and wonderful. She gave us some great recommendations on places that Corzetti is related to on LinkedIn first of all. The food and drinks were absolutely fantastic. I would love to come back here again. My husband and I order as a starter and appetizer. That dish was absolutely tasty and the bread and the meat was just perfect. My husband ordered a mixed drink and so did I. He ordered the Manhattan and she right off the top of her head, tell us everything about the type of liquor they offer. We ordered our dinner and I was a little bit hesitant to order a couple different different things so she recommended the Orsetti pasta and it was absolutely delicious with the pancetta. I rolled pasta noodle into a little circle and the sauce was absolutely delicious with the brown butter and sage, it was so creamy I could eat that for the rest of my life. Then she recommended my Husband order the pork chops and he loved it. It came with a side of potatoes because they were so delicious and he was very happy with his meal. 10 out of 10 we will definitely be returning sometime whenever we visit San Francisco again to this place or visit the many other restaurants that were recommended to us by Karina. She could not have been more of a help and was such an excellent server. We really appreciated her and she was so accommodating to us and so friendly and kind. We really appreciate you so much.

Front of the house was wonderful, friendly and sat us rather quickly. She gave us the option of booth or table. Nice gesture. I ordered the aperol spritz and it was great. I ordered the smoked salmon tartine and the only thing I ate was the tartine. The potatoes lacked any flavor and you can see burnt and dry. When it came to the poached egg it was definitely over cooked. It had a nice decor for a Sunday afternoon. Waiter never came to ask how our meal was.

Redemption Song---Bob Marley harmony in my head After a underwhelming experience at the all vegan Golden Era with horrendous service me and my beloved went downtown to Corzetti for a bite. I first experienced Corzetti at an Elite Yelp Event the end of last year put on by Dominic and Corzetti. Being a longtime vegan had apprehension since all the pasta is made from scratch and has egg in it yet my worries were put aside alleviated. I had a great experience at the Elite Yelp event having one of the best vegan pizza sans cheese of my life. I am a teetotaler and don't drink. I don't normally care for mocktails yet the mocktail here that day was amazing so was keen to come back. With a split pho and horrible experience at Golden Era with rude service behind us here we were. The service here was on point which makes all the difference. We went with the Vessillico aka red sauce pizza without cheese with red onions and added mushrooms. It came with a Calabrian chili oil. I am third generation Calabrian Italian and also Sicilian heritage. The pizza hit the spot and was one of the better vegans pizzas that I ever had sans dairy cheese. I got the Il Corrogno mocktail. It was similar to a hot apple cider with fresh herbs and excellent. My girlfriend went with a glass of red wine and she tried my mocktail and liked it better! Feedback to improve things: I will be back yet would love to mention to the owner and chef to get some vegan pasta on the menu. I loathe processed vegan cheese on vegan pizza yet a made in house vegan cheese from cashews would be amazing. The chefs know what they are doing and service is on point. There were several sides that were by default vegan or could be made vegan from Brussel sprouts to potatoes etc and several salads. The salad we got was on point. Due to aforementioned underwhelming experience I forgot to take notes on what salad yet the salad came with potatoes, fresh dressing, and escarole. My father and uncle ate escarole on the regular growing up in Brooklyn in the day. The only thing better than the food was the service. We will be back. Come here for a stellar experience. You won't be disappointed.

Overall, this is one of my favorite restaurants. Tip: come here with people who like conversation because there is a lot of down time from start to finish. Both times I've been here, the wait staff leave plenty of room for conversation between courses. I came here with my family and ate family style: The Caesar salad is one of my favorites here. The pesto was yummy and I was sad when the table finished it. The Corzetti pasta was nothing like what I've had before. Definitely worth getting. The table was split on the dessert: the panna cotta is good and the gelato is also good. No one went crazy for the cake. I'll probably pass on it next time. Can't wait to come back for the salad and pasta!

Had reservations on a Friday night. Got there over an hour early and sat at the bar for some drinks. It was bustling but not overcrowded. The bartenders were friendly and knowledgeable. Our server and the whole serving staff were professional, quick, and had humor. First time coming here but I hope it's not the last. N/A Cocktails (nonalcoholic) Chinotto Spritz Bright and citrusy. Served in a large wine glass. Perfect pick me up to let go of the day. Pom-groni Sharp, distinct taste. With a bit of citrus in the first sip, the apertivo really shines through. Focaccia - Di Cipolla Good focaccia and the olive tapenade adds a lot of flavor. Fritto misto Seafood fried right. The calamari was the best. Spaghettini alle vongole Crunchy breadcrumbs. Slight spice. The dish worked well in all its elements. Loved the clams! The Branzino, $42 This fish is reason enough to go to Corzetti. Fresh and delicious with that hint of lemon. Had a couple pieces of bone, but mostly boneless. I would definitely come back for this fish.

I made a reservation for some friends and I to have my belated birthday dinner. A Bay Area food influencer featured Corzetti on their Instagram story, so I Googled the restaurant and menu. It seemed like a nice enough place for a birthday dinner. Corzetti was super accommodating; my initial reservation was 4:30, but I pushed it back to 5:00. Then, a friend backed out, so that left two friends for dinner. This wasn't an issue for Corzetti. I loved the decor and vibe of the restaurant. It took about 10 minutes or so for our waitress to come check on us. A gentleman came by first, but I know with us waiting for a friend, it probably got confusing. Our waitress took our drink orders. I wanted lemonade. She was confused by this request; she mentioned she was new and didn't know if Corzetti served lemonade, but she would find out (they do serve lemonade). I'd just gotten back from Los Cabos where I experienced amazing service at several restaurants, so I was a bit "shocked" (shocked is probably too strong of a word) that our waitress didn't review the menu with us. There was no talk about guests' favorite dishes, the restaurant's signature dishes, specials for the evening--nothing. We ordered the focaccia di cippola and polpetti della nonna appetizers to start. The focaccia was dry and a little...stale? That was an odd surprise. The olive tapenade was good! The meatballs were okay, but the sauce was very salty. This is a surprise for me because I don't think I've ever written a review where I mention too much salt. I usually talk about how things need MORE seasoning. Something else that was interesting is that everything was served lukewarm. My friend and I shared the Corzetti pasta and the salsiccia pizza (while this wasn't piping hot, at least it wasn't lukewarm!). I was not a fan of the Corzetti dish. My friend liked it, but I didn't enjoy it at all. I sidestepped everything I was probably supposed to enjoy--the mushrooms (hen of the woods) and sage pieces. The bits bacon (pancetta probably?) were pretty good, but the pasta was so doughy. The salsiccia pizza was okay. I didn't particularly care for the bitter and unflavorful broccolini that was added to the pizza. We were offered to-go boxes and I let my friend take everything home. If you are planning a birthday meal, be sure to ask them if they bring out anything for birthdays. My friend and I were hoping for a post-dinner birthday sweet treat (yes, I did mention we were celebrating a birthday. The hostess acknowledged this, but the initial waiter and then waitress clearly didn't know.), but since no one brought it up, we decided to skip dessert altogether. Overall, I think the ambience and decor of the restaurant is lovely. If you're in Union Square, I think this is an acceptable Italian restaurant. However, don't be like me and brave the rain and traffic and make a 45-60 minute drive up the Peninsula for Corzetti. It will not be worth it.

We were so lucky to find a spot without a reservation on a Friday's night. The place has dim light. The atmosphere is quite perfect for casual date night or semi-formal hangout. The food was good. There were 3 of us. We were barely able to finish everything. The pizza would be perfect if there weren't a lot of burned spots on top. The braised beef was so tender and right amount of saltiness. It's hard to go wrong with calamari :) Check out process was easy. You can do QR code payment and split evenly if necessary.

This places gives Great Gatsby vibes in the best way! Walking distance from Union square, parking is limited. Enjoyed the pesto pasta, albeit wish it came with add-on protein options. My friends loved the spaghetti alle vongole, and some fun cocktails.

Date of visit: 12/14/2023 Got a chance to visit one of the newly opened restaurants by Adriano Paganini. He has many renowned restaurants in San Francisco, including the rooftop bar in Mission district El Techo, the chic Italian restaurant in Hayes Valley, San Francisco mini-chain Super Duper Burger, and all-day pizzeria Delarosa. Just a few blocks from Union Square, Corzetti is a hideaway from the buzzing streets of San Francisco, into the summer-like Italian coastal town. The menu is influenced by the day's catch and peak-season produce from local areas. 2017 Il Carpino, Friuli Ribolla Gialla $25 I got the orange-skin contact wine that is made from 100% Ribolla Gialla. This orange wine spend around 80 days in contact with the skins, gave the wine more texture on the palate than regular white wine. 2018 Kessler-Haak, Ohana Vineyard Pinot Noir $18 My husband Pinot Noir from Santa Rita Hills. With the hint of spices of cardamom and clove, and mixed with ripe cherry. Fritto Misto $16 We got the fried squid with squid, cod fritters, fennel, and chili aioli on the side. The salt and crispness of the squid, cod fritters and fennel went very well with the wine. Spaghettini Alle Vongole $26 Spaghettini Alle Vongole with manila clams is my all time favorite. The portion at Corzetti is fairly small. Ciuppin $36 Ciuppin is the type of cioppino in Ligurian style. With all different seafood including shrimp, cod, mussels, clams, in a thick seafood tomato broth, and two crispy crostini on top.

Nice restaurant 1 block away from Union Square Stopped by for a small happy hour snack and ended up having calamari and Baccala with an aioli. The staff is friendly and the food good. Lots of people and pleasant ambiance. Will retador a full meal and to try dessert. Close enough to Union Square for this restaurant to be easily accessible by public transit so parking should not be an issue.

If 3.5 was available, I'd go with that. My favorite of the evening was the peach cake which was not too sweet and complimented by the nuts and cream. A really light and lovely summer dessert. The seafood stew was okay and some of the shrimp were a bit mushy so I dumped those but the rest was good.

Food, drinks, and service were all great. Extra kudos to our Server who patiently dealt with a large group of girls with many demands and was very helpful and accommodating. The ambiance is modern and non pretentious, For the type of food they served plus having a full bar, I was expecting the ambiance to be a bit more upscale but it was still clean and comfortable albeit a little "diner like". the food was delicious. We ordered every single pasta they had on the menu, a pizza, bunch of desserts, and too many cocktails. All the food was delicious. The noodles were all perfectly cooked with a lot of flavor. We didn't leave any leftovers because everything was good, even the salads. Food also came FAST like within minutes. The location is super convenient, it's a stones throw away from the Curran theater and Union square. So it was perfect for a meal for us to have right before watching a show. Highly recommend for the food, drinks, service, convenient location. The ambiance isn't bad by all means but it would prob not be my first choice if you want to impress someone like on a first date.

Came on a Thursday night with a reservation for 3 people. We were seated at one of the tables in the back. The restaurant is dimly lit with candles on each table, giving off a great ambiance for date night. The restaurant was packed even on a weekday night so it did get loud from time to time but overall, a great atmosphere. Autonno pizza 5/5 I highly recommend ordering this! It had some caramel-y flavor which was super unique and went perfect with the squash. The thin crust was baked perfectly that it was crispy but not burnt. Penne al gamberi 3/5 I liked the pasta as it was firm but bouncy and even seemed handmade but the flavor of the sauce was lacking a little bit. Compared to the pizza that we all enjoyed, we weren't impressed with the pasta. Drinks: Rapallo Radler and Spritz Rosa 3/5 Service: It was a really busy night so it is understandable but it was really hard to get our server's attention when we wanted to order more food. But all the food came fairly quickly! I would recommend coming here for a nice dinner.

I took my date to Corzetti for dinner, and the vibes were incredibly romantic and lively! The restaurant was packed, but in a good way--it felt bustling without being overwhelming. The food was delicious, with perfectly portioned servings. My date and I shared an appetizer and each had an entrée, and by the end of the meal, we were completely satisfied. I ordered the Linguine al nero, and I can't even begin to describe how amazing it was. If you're into seafood, this dish is a must-try--packed with tomatoes and crab! My date had the fish, which was unbelievably smooth and flavorful. Honestly, I wish we had stayed longer to try a dessert! The timing of the dishes was spot on, too--we didn't have to wait long at all. The only downside was the service. When we asked for recommendations, our waiter seemed rushed and just flew through the menu options, which made it hard to find something more personalized. It felt like we were just another table to get through, rather than guests to take care of. Overall, Corzetti was absolutely fantastic! The food really stood out, and I loved sharing such a romantic experience with my date. The atmosphere was just perfect for an intimate evening, and it's definitely a place I'd return to for another special night out. I can't wait to go back and hopefully try a dessert we missed! I hope to try the Spaghettini Alle vongole next time!

Mediocre food, but it's location near the theaters make it a convenient choice for a pre-show dinner.

I visited Corzetti for the first time with a party of 3 and we had reservations ahead of time. We checked in early, but our table wasn't ready yet, so we waited at the bar for a few minutes. They interior of Corzetti is really cute, modern, and European-vibes. Overall, it was great for a girl's night and could even be a cute date night spot. FOOD: We ordered an appetizer, 3 pastas, and a dessert to split between 3 people, which led us fully stuffed by the end of our dinner. We ordered the Lamb Meatballs, Corzetti pasta, Ravioli di Zucca, Fazzoletti Al Pesto, and finished our meal with Gianduja Crostata, a splendid chocolate and hazelnut tart. We absolutely loved the pesto pasta, which was incredibly flavorful, and the ravioli was addicting to eat. All of our pastas were so unique in flavor and the texture was the right balance of chewy and soft. SERVICE: Our food came out pretty fast and our servers were constantly cleaning our tables and ensuring our water cups were full. They were also making jokes with us, which livened the atmosphere for us. Overall, I'd come back for the pasta at Corzetti!
