SPQR

best meal of my life. best Italian food ever. everything was just too good. we got the chicken mousse , wagyu beef (alright, tasted like sausage ), smoked fettucine , some type of spaghetti .

Dark and crowded but the food more than makes up for this, with true innovation on produce and technique being applied to Italian heritage. Damn good wine list too.

Their ricotta gnudi with sage meatballs was amazing! Everything we had was delicious. They did a nice inventive twist of the classic tiramisu that left you craving for more.

Brassicas and grains is a wonderful dish, deeply flavored, earthy, and texturally rich with a fabulous mouthfeel. It may not be low cal , but it is a very nutritious plate that feels good to eat.

If you're in the mood to indulge your decadent side, linger over your espresso and order the warm chocolate cake served with a molten center spilling out onto white coffee gelato and frothy spuma. Read more

Sunset is a good time for dinner here with the last rays of sun falling into the restaurant , a nice balance against the darker interior setting. The warm corn salad was memorable.

Surprised I was able to walk in on a Sunday night. Menu was approachable with prix fixe and a la carte options. Enjoyable meal w/out the pretentiousness and queue that often comes with Michelin status

Sweetest staff ! Host actually WALKED to the bar next door to tell us that our table was ready. Food was flawless -the corn polenta and sweet corn ravioli were TO DIE FOR! I highly recommend this place

Though modeled after a Roman osteria, the restaurant 's cooking style and relaxed vibe are undeniably San Francisco. Reservations are not accepted, but it's absolutely worth the wait for a table. Read more

A16’s sister restaurant , SPQR focuses on traditional Italian dishes which include fresh, house-made pastas and has a selective attitude toward Italian wine . Go with a group and try their small plates .

Start with chicken liver . Taste like sweets. Menu keeps changing but capellini is always perfect choice. Get knocked out with spring cabbage pasta .

Chicken liver mousse is insane. One of Chef Accarrino 's signature dishes. You will not be disappointed. 2014 FWBNC.

Specialties: Any pasta ; chicken liver mousse ; constantly changing menu might include main courses such as swordfish with blood sausage and citrus butter. Read more

Excellent presentation and service. Favorites were the special pastas with black truffle and caviar . Skip the risotto .

What's this refreshing flavor? Coriander and mustard ? Capellini was really fantastic. You will surprise by tasting it as it's not like typical pasta taste. In good way.

This is a place all adventurous eaters should go to experience something akin to what you'd find at the finest, trendiest spots in Milan, with dishes like Meyer lemon and abalone spaghetti "alfredo ." Read more

Everything here is delicious. Ask your server for recommendations. Their wine list is extensive and the cheese plate is fantastic.

The menu changes often, but the five-course pasta tasting menu ($52; $36 for wine pairings ) offered Tuesday-Thursday shows off Accarrino's exceptional skills. Read more

Couldn't stop eating it was so good. Ate so much I forgot what I ate, but I know it was amazing and will be headed back soon. Bartender was super knowledgeable and on point.

Amazing fresh pasta , interesting combos, rapidly changing menu . Chefs table is cool in theory but I always end up enjoying the bar seats more

Amazing food at maybe a tad higher price for comparable restaurants .

Loved the pasta tasting menu . I thought the service was a tad uneven. I’d go back just to have the beet gnocchetti with beef bolognese .

The chefs and staff run an incredibly tight ship while still maintaining a chill atmosphere. It was an honor to sit at the Chef's Table to see where the magic happens!

You must get the uni carbonara and the wagyu appetizer if they have it. If the wine list confuses you, ask your server to put together pairings for you!

Holy cow! Fantastic everything. Food, service and old world wine selection all great. Order up anything. It won't disappoint.

Perfect assault on your taste buds!! Chicken Liver Pate is a must along with the wine pairings .

Many dishes continuously change. Hard to imagine what each dish taste like from menu. Best ask for chefs table at booking .

After an autumnal whirlwind, Matt Accarrino continues to make SPQR his own. The chef counter has some of the best seats in town and the wine list remains top notch too. [Eater 38 Member] Read more

Fancy modern Italian good, watch it being prepared in front of you if sitting at the bar

Incredible selection of pastas . The steak , topped with foie gras , was incredible.

One of the best meals I have had I a while. We had the wine paring which was a great choice.

The finest Roman by way of California cuisine, a creative wine list and a great cookbook to pick up on your way out!

Absolutely flawless. Amazing food. Great service. Delicious deserts . Definitely one of my favorite spots in town .

Some of the best Italian dishes I've had in the States . Can't go wrong with the pappardelle or the ragu .

Overall good experience, but found the lunch pasta tasting too expensive at $38 pp. One of the dishes was a deep fried corn which was only average.

Everything is good! Pasta ???? and crab ???? salad ????

Prosciutto wrapped rabbit wow fabulously tender and light. Also red snapper crudo . Perfect to try blue bottle Gibraltar -creamy espresso

There's no parking here. No valet and no lots close. Take Uber or Lyft. It's not traditional Italian by any means. Very creative dishes and very good.

Come here for lunch , and there's no wait and a cheaper pasta tasting menu .

Get the cinnamon bombolini for dessert ! Perfectly balanced, not overly sweet.

Best everyday restaurant in SF. Always start dinner with Chicken Liver Mousse , and lunch with biscuits .

The superlative pastas are a necessary focus to meals here, consider embarking on the six-course pasta tasting menu . – Green Guide Editor

Pasta is delicious here and weekend lunch is served here

The pasta is too al dente for my taste, but the other dishes are great
