Mescolanza Restaurant

Relatively decent restaurant with excellent dishes with equal prices for all of them. Would highly recommend grilled calamari for filet mignon, if available. Both came juicy and done well on the spot to have your taste buds explode. Salmon was good as well, however, very tiny piece. The entries came with some slow cooked carrots, potatoes and zucchinis, which did not underline the protein portion. Make sure to save some room for tiramisu and chocolate cheesecake that were outstanding. Design and process organization do need some attention though. Reserved a table for over 15 people, and when our party arrived, the restaurant was empty and the tables were not set. Tables themselves are small and Jen tightly fit four persons with no extra room. Atmosphere is intimate for a pleasant dinner. Overall good place to stop by for a joyful dinner with your significant other.

This place was so amazing!! The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. We came in close to close and they still made everything wonderfully! The fresh crème in the Alfredo was so good and flavorful. the gnocchi was amazing! We ordered dessert and the cheesecake was so so so light and tasty! We visit San Francisco but this was our first time in…. It definitely won’t be the last time!!!

Mescolanza is my favorite Italian restaurant in SF. My family and I have been going to this family owned establishment for years. They make the best Gnocchi allo Genovese (pesto gnocchi) that is melt in your mouth delicious! The pesto sauce is creamy and rich with basil flavor. Other pesto gnocchis just don't compare to theirs. I also recommend their salmon, carbonara, and their eggplant appetizer. All their other dishes are solid too. Staff is welcoming and attentive. They also have a larger room where you can host small dinner parties! They did a wonderful job with my sister's wedding dinner.

I lived in SF before, so I was super exctied to visit this city again for leisure! This restaurant was one of my favorites while in SF. I was too tired so I ordered delievery. Delievery process was not really smooth, part of my fault, so it was ok until I got the food. As soon as I open the boxes… I was so disappointed. The amount of basil pasta was like joking, and they gave me the wrong pizza. I ordered a mushroom pizza but the pear&salami one was delievered. (That pizza was not even good to me) The garlic bread, can’t even say a word, just check my photo what I got for about 10bucks. Even if I woud get visit SF again, I won’t ruin my precious time and money on this restaurant… my good memory about Mescolanza has been destroyed. :(

Mescolanza Restaurant was a wonderful discovery. The food was exceptionally good. The polenta with a mushroom sauce, the carpaccio, ravioli and radicchio with gorgonzola were all perfectly executed. I will return!

I highly recommend the angel hair pasta with grilled artichokes. The pasta was al dente and the proportions of the artichokes was somewhat generous. If your more interested in seafood, then try having the pasta with some grilled prawns! They don't over do it on the sauce either. Who wants to eat just sweet sugar tomato sauce, right? The garlic bread was wonderful has well, but you have been warned, it is quite powerful (breathe mints are advised)

I would say it's a good Italian restaurant, it gave me the feeling that I was back in Italy. I ordered a pasta (capenelli al pomodoro) however in my opinion it lacked raw ingredients as I expected more fresh Basil and cherry tomatoes. The pizza however was amazing as it had a nice thin crust and I really liked the spumoni.

Pastas were well made and tasty but the portions are not large. Order a pizza and soup and you will be fine.
