"When: Monday-Friday, 4:30-6pm
Roman-style pizzas are the name of the game at Pacific Heights spot Pinsa Rossa. During Happy Hour, they serve a wide selection of personal-size pinsas (get the spicy salami), small plates like pork and beef meatballs, each for $9. They also have glasses of house white or red wine, also $9." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
Pinsa Rossa - Review - Fillmore - San Francisco - The Infatuation
"This Pacific Heights restaurant makes Roman-style pizzas with the utmost attention (the same with which we honor our weekly hair-washing schedule). The laser-focused pinsa scientists turn out oblong discs with puffy crusts that look dense, but actually snap and then deflate nicely when you bite into them. Go for the one with spicy salami draped across the top, or the prosciutto and arugula with a sweet balsamic drizzle. The shiny, red-and-black dining room includes a bar and some private-ish upstairs seating, but we like sitting downstairs by the big windows and watching Fillmore Street’s designer dogs trot by." - Julia Chen
I am in love with this place. Pinsa is so unique. I've never had it before. It's light but still filling. The crust is very crispy and a little bit chewy. The flavor profiles of the pizzas here are also very well crafted. My favorite is the burrata. With the touch of balsamic vinegar, it is amazing. This place might be my new go-to place for pizza. A highlight is also the Arancini. It was so perfectly crispy with a very cheesy inside. Fantastic. No comments.

went here for a quick happy hour + bite when we were roaming around Fillmore! The ambiance is cute and the wines were yum!! loved the prosecco!! the vegan pizza is kind of bland (like needed hella seasoning lol + sauce maybe?) still a decent happy hour and would go again! hopefully can make the vegan options a bit better

Delicious pizza and dessert. Loved the Pesto e patate pizza the best
Busy but not an overly long wait (reservations recommended for large groups or if you have a strong preference to be inside or outside). They have a nice parklet with heating, they also have an upstairs area inside. Can be loud inside.
Three pizzas was enough for three people with some extra slices, but could be finished if you're hungry. Brussel sprouts were okay, but might be good to add some of their Italian chili oil (they bring it out with the chili peppers). Dessert was also delicious, it's rich so, good to share.

Bad quality food. The pizza didn't taste like anything special to be raving about. They just have a lot of toppings.
The little gem caesar salad, just look at the photo, the vegetable is wilt, not fresh, not crisp, and already has brown spots on them. The dressing tastes like a store bought Caesars salad dressing. It's not worth the price, not going back, highly not recommended.

we ordered the crispy brussel sprouts, pepperoni and sausage pizza, and the peach summer special pizza. everything was just ok. the brussel sprouts were way too oily, we didn’t bother finishing them.

Great place with delicious pizza. We had the mushroom and added sausage and it was so good! I didn't love the skewer, was a bit over for me but maybe next time I'll ask for medium rare. The squash blossoms were phenomenal with a light fish and chips beer batter type of crunch. Will definitely come back!

Came here for dinner, seated quickly with great service. I really like the food here and the restaurant itself, it’s just the music that doesn’t match 😆 it’s a lot of rap / trap. I’ve been a few times, and I don’t think it matches the atmosphere…it’s hard to hear who you’re talking to sometimes. but the food is good lol.

I recently visited Pinsa Rossa in San Francisco with my girlfriends for an intimate dinner, and I must say, this place is truly a hidden gem! The ambiance is cozy and inviting, perfect for unwinding and catching up with friends.
The food is just amazing – every dish we ordered was crafted to perfection, with fresh ingredients and authentic flavors that truly stood out. If you’re looking for a spot that combines exceptional cuisine with a warm and intimate setting, this is it.
Highly recommend for small gatherings, date nights, or simply indulging in some incredible food!
