   Food was good but my fish was just warm. I should’ve asked for it to be heated up but u was too hungry 😆. Otherwise everything was great.

   The food was delicious and the service was exemplary. We ordered pizzas and the special cacio e pepe spaghetti, prepared tableside. Everything was excellent, and the service was prompt and attentive. A definite winner in North Beach.

   Have been several times, and was impressed when the staff did an amazing job on a busy holiday night. We went on Thanksgiving, and the line out the door didn't end the whole time we dined. We had a holiday salad as a starter, the pasta with guanciale in the cheese bowl (a very fun show that is video-worthy) and the branzino with fries. Had a bottle of wine and affogato for dessert. Everything was delicious. Marvin was a very good server. His timing was crisp. We never had to wait more than a minute or two before he came by to answer questions/bring food. The support staff were fast with water pouring/table clearing. Thank you to the restaurant for being open on Thanksgiving. We'll definitely be back!!!

   The service was disappointing, with staff displaying a lack of professionalism and a poor attitude. Additionally, some dishes are only available after 5 PM, a detail that is not clearly communicated on their website. To make matters worse, a 20% tip was automatically added to the bill, leaving no choice in the matter despite the subpar experience. This lack of transparency and forced tipping has left me unwilling to return.

    It was nice to walk through the neighborhood to Acquolina. Taking in the ambiance as we waited to be seated. Not a huge place. Fairly loud music. Big screen TV. Football. Large tall window looking out to street with strings of tiny lights. Garden boxes with hanging ivy. At first the person reviewing the reservations said, I don’t have a reservation for you. So, I showed on the iPhone the open table reservation. Suddenly, the person sad, Oh. Here it is. I guess be prepared to prove a reservation. The Tiny table hardly seemed comfortable, and there were several bigger empty tables. The seating person said, I have large party coming to the larger tables when I asked about being seated at a larger place. The wait staff person is very helpful and very good. The Prosecco is delish. The Calamari is very good and made even better with an extra dash of salt and pepper. The Bruschetta - very good - bread is softer that traditional bruschetta and the flavor is wonderful. The ravioli dish is uniquely flavored, yes, it seemed like it even had tiny sweet mandarin orange slices in a few mouthfuls. The pasta is perfectly prepared. The Tiramisu portion is economical but delicious. A nice place in a nice setting.
