- GGregorySan Francisco Bay Area •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThe restaurant was excellent but the OpenTable experience was horrible. We tried to adjust our arrival time and the app said there were no tables available within 2 hours of the time frame. We had a 4:15 reservation and wished to move it to 4:45. When we left at 5:30 there were still plenty of tables available. We left a note for the restaurant and that went unanswered.More infoA ManoPrice: Moderate• Italian• Western Addition•4.4

Food is divine - started with the zucchini fries and olive appetizer, shared the Prosciutto Parm and Rigatoni.
