The sirloin steak , served with a little pile of braised kale and tiny roasted carrots , has a blackened exterior that intensifies the meaty essence and provides a sharp contrast to the rosy interior. Read more

The wait is long, but worth it. Pull up a chair at the bar and try some sparkling red wine and prosciutto . Once you have a table, you can't miss the maccoranara. For dessert : olive oil and chocolate .

Absolutely amazing. The Pizza was one of the best of my life. Try the Californian wine as well ! Worth every dollar.

Try this inventive Italian restaurant that features handmade maccaronara with ragu and ricotta  and a 500+ bottle wine list . If you’re not in a red sauce mood, get the trout and wood-fired pizzas . Read more

The pizzas ! Get one as an app. The mushroom one add prosciutto is a fave of mine. All the entrees are great but def save room for the chocolate budino sea salt dessert !

This beloved spot has it all: great food, an extensive, well-chosen wine list , and a foosball table . The sleek, dark space, all concrete floors and cork walls, is home to a hopping singles scene. Read more

Awesome environment for a date. Be sure to try the burrata as well as the pomodori pizza . Make enough room for dessert with their homeade gelato selection.

A fantastic experience. Wonderful wine . Incredible Italian food . Make sure to try the burrata cheese !

If you can, sit at the bar & get wine tips from the bartender . He knows everything about every wine ever made. Also, pizza and chicken livers are amazing!!

Sit at the back bar and watch them cook while you eat. Pizza dough is really light and great. The mushroom pizza is delish. So is the Maccaronara with Ricotta Salata . Great wine too.

They have burrata , a very fresh local cheese from Bari, Puglia, Italy. Normally impossible to get in US and outside Bari. They said it was copy produced locally.. Try, almost like the real from Bari

Good choices include a goat chop ($26) and a special one night: a thick fillet of swordfish ($27) accented with toasted pine nuts . Read more

Sea urchin , squid ink pasta ; next time doing a pizza and saving room for s'berry shortcake- courtesy of the new pastry chef . Love this place. Did I mention they gave me a spot at the chef 's counter?

The artichoke appetizer , margarita pizza , trout , arugula salad , chicken all phenomenal. Great wine selection too

The southern Italian cuisine here is delicious, but the highlight is definitely the wine . The wood-fired thin-crust pizza is not to be missed. Be sure to pick up the A16 cookbook .

Shelley is an expert on southern wines ; any aglianico from Campania (Taurasi) or Basilicata (incl Vulture) is worth checking out... and the tripe is top notch!

Pizza is served with shears to cut it with. So fun :)

Margarita pizza is great. Always ask if they are serving their meatballs (it's a secret menu kind of thing... but the waiter recently told me they're only serving them on Monday's).

Nico Sciackitano is soooooo amazing!!!!! He helped me with all my wine pairings so beautifully. All the staff was so friendly . Finish your meal with espresso and the chocolate tart .

Lunch was unreal. Pizzas and pastas were delicious! The burrata was... YUM!! I cannot wait to visit again.

Awesome Pizza but everything here is top shelf . Sit at the chef 's bar towards the back to watch the kitchen run at hi gear

Specialties: Neapolitan pizza ; tuna conserva; house-cured salumi ; tripe Napoletana; maccaronara pasta with tomato ragu and ricotta salata; chocolate budino tart .

The three-course lunch tasting menu for $20 is a steal. Use the leftover cash on one of the 500+ bottles of wines on the list.

Go for the pizzas ! Pomodo is good. The pasta was not so good. Wine is very good

Save this place for special occasions . Not your everyday/week place. Great pizza and service.

Start with the burrata . If you are in a pasta mood, go with the paccheri with swordfish . This place is a legit Italian wine bar.

the finest education on all things oenealogical can be had sitting at the A16 bar . winery owners, wine distributors & sommeliers hang out here. ask Benito to serve you & tell him Lola sent you, guey.

The margherita pizza is the best pizza in SF, making our list of "The Tastes That Make the City : SF Edition." Read more

Montepulciano + Funghi pizza + busiati (get ready for the garlic !) + steak with squash =????????

I love this place. The service is great and the food is good. They are very friendly . Just had lunch there the other day!

Don't let the trendy atmosphere mislead you: the Italian fare is simple, straightforward, and delicious. Make sure to try the gnocchi tossed with wild mushrooms , green garlic and pecorino .

A16 is the autostrada that connects Naples in Campania to Bari in Puglia. The Italian food that Shelley Lindgren fell in love with on a school trip to Italy abounds on the menu.

If you’re going a la carte, may we suggest the Bruschetta , Clams , Squid Ink Tonnarelli, and at least two pizzas !

Sitting at the bar and sipping a glass of wine while watching them work at the brick oven is so fun.

A little pricey , but well worth it. The food is amazing. Try the gnocchi and chocolat cake dessert .

I just love their pizza margarita ! Order the buratta with your pasta . Cut up the buratta into little pieces and add them to your pasta for additional deliciousness.

Great ambiamce, I prefer delerosa down the street for pizza and burata in the marina .

A16 is simple Italian foods that chef Nate Appleman lovingly prepares to an intimate dining room. Chocolate Sadino with sea salt and xu is the way to finish up. -Kevin Gillespie, Top Chef

Excellent Italian (south) food in a nice and very busy restaurant .

Pizza and burrata were awesome. Other stuff were eh.

Awesome Italian food . The pizzas here are super well made.

Ask your waiter to recommend one of the sparkling red wines . Surprisingly delicious!

Italian restaurant . Cheese is excellent!

Amazing wine selection , everything is really good, classic Italian restaurant
