SPQR

"Kitschy and boisterous with modern cooking, this dining room is always packed. The space is slender while a soaring ceiling, skylights and open kitchen brighten the mood.Chef Matthew Accarrino's mingling of Italian and Californian elements makes for satisfying cooking, and the best of the season's produce is highlighted in the five-course prix-fixe menu. The meal might begin with a crespelle with pork belly, fennel and persimmon, or a chicken liver terrina with rhubarb and wood sorrel.  Of course, choosing between house-made pastas like squid ink perciatelli with octopus cream and chili pequin or spinach pappardelle with mushroom and fried egg might seem challenging, but it's difficult to go wrong." - Michelin Inspector

The Best Restaurants and Bars to Eat and Drink in Pacific Heights | Eater SF

"Chef Matt Accarrino has been holding it down on Fillmore Street for years and continues to make SPQR a destination for fresh pasta and hearty Italian plates like king salmon with farro verde and bacon-wrapped Berkshire pork. On most nights, diners can choose between ordering a la carte or going for a four-course prix fixe for $99. For an even more casual dining experience, just pop around the corner to sister restaurant Mattina, which serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner Thursday through Sunday." - Dianne de Guzman

SPQR - Review - Fillmore - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"While SPQR’s pasta ranges from just fine to good, it’s a reliable choice for an upscale-ish last-minute date night. a parking spot at Serramonte on a weekday, the tables here are almost always available. Some pastas, like the walnut and gorgonzola doppio, are fantastic— al dente with a rich, balanced filling. Others miss the mark. The cocoa bean malfadine with rabbit sugo is undercooked, and the taleggio rotolo with beef bolognese is salty. Will it be the most impressive date you’ve ever been on? No. But this place still gets the job done. And with unrushed service, a dining room that looks straight out of a high-end Italian resort, and an excellent deconstructed tiramisu to end the night, you could do a lot worse. photo credit: Patrick Wong photo credit: Patrick Wong photo credit: Patrick Wong Pause Unmute How to get into SPQR For a party of two, same-day reservations are easy to get, even on weekends.
