I was very pleasantly surprised by Mr Digby’s. The food was delicious, the atmosphere cozy and modern. My martini was exceptional. The service was attentive and warm. Our experience was positive and we will definitely be back.

We have been coming to Lupa for the past 18 years. Lupa Trattoria in San Francisco offers an exceptional dining experience with authentic Roman cuisine. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxed meal. We were particularly impressed by the amatriciana, which was as authentic as any you’d find in Rome, with perfectly balanced flavors that showcased the traditional preparation. Stefano's attention to detail in the dishes reflects a deep respect for Roman culinary traditions.

Worth the hype! Experienced a Christmas miracle by snagging the last rez for two on Christmas Eve at Elena’s at 11:30 a.m. Fun seat mates, great staff (thanks Jordan!), delicious craft cocktails, superior ahi tacos and maybe the best Branzino I’ve ever had. My husband loved the pozole - not too spicy. Highly recommend. 💫

We returned for a second visit this holiday season; it was wonderful. Got adventurous and had the creamed corn. I noticed my daughters snuck more than an initial half teaspoon taste. It was very, very good. Not watery creamy. This had a nice texture. Try it! The prime rib was exceptional. I had the smaller portion. One daughter had the thinner slices. One daughter had the regular cut. All were sumptuous! Had a baked potato instead of the mashed. It was yummy. We ordered an apple crisp to share between the three of us. It was delicious with a nice amount of apple slices hidden under the topping and surrounded by the usual warm spices. Our server was great! She was friendly, attentive but didn’t hover. Thank you all for a wonderful evening! I may not be back for a while. Palo Alto daughter is moving to Duarte. CA this summer. If she needs help moving, we’ll have to do a farewell visit at House of Prime Rib. Again, thank you!

We loved the welcoming staff and server. The food is delicious, and the drinks are original (not a full bar). But we were rushed toward the end of our meal because all the other patrons had left, and the staff wanted to close up. In total, we were in only for 56 min, and at 8:00 pm, we were in the street. I didn't have time to finish my drink. We will again, though.
