About this restaurant

Good for business meals
Neighborhood gem
Good for special occasions

Credo is the Latin word for "I believe." We believe that good food and good company go hand in hand. We believe in the time-honored tradition of the dinner table debate and the swirling mix of ideas that makes this country great. We believe simple things can be brilliant, like authentic, responsibly sourced ingredients, attention to detail and gracious hospitality.
Credo opened on Martin Luther King Jr. day in 2010. Our chef creates a menu that reflects his deep appreciation of Italian culinary traditions combined with Northern California sensibilities. Distilling robust and complex flavors from simple ingredients, local produce, sustainable seafood and meats, and imported Italian specialty items.

Boy, has Credo sunk to a new low. The pizza, usually a reliable and delicious option, was an underbaked doughy, rancid mess, the sauce was like ketchup (no sign of San Marzano flavor). The wine list is an embarrassing collection of 8-10 random bottles that looks the the owner is unloading his cellar at ridiculously overpriced levels. The appetizers, shrimp and hummus, were stunningly overpriced and underwhelming. The vanilla gelato was full of ice crystals—definitely ice cream that’s been tucked away in the freezer for months. I predict imminent closure after the remaining inventory is disposed of to innocent diners like us. Avoid if you can! PS I’ve been a Credo regular for over 10 years but this is it.

We have a good dinner experience at Credo. It service was great. I wished the food wasn’t as salty. A few of the dishes were too salty, otherwise it would have been great as the flavors were there.

This was a hidden treasure! I go to San Francisco often for business and pleasure and I have dined at many top tier restaurants but the food, price, service and ambience was top notch! I will be back and have already recommended to many local and out of town friends associates.

This is one of my favorite down-town lunch spots. The food is great and service is friendly and efficient, so you can have a great meal, and also get in and out quickly, if you need to get back to the office. My one complaint is that it is VERY loud in the restaurant. It is hard to hear. I recommend this place for parties of two only, as it's hard to hear around a bigger table.

Restaurant wasn’t busy. Took awhile to have our server come by table. Recommended the soup which was great. The brown butter ravioli with butternut squash purée was cold. I should have sent it back but didn’t. Ravioli wasn’t fully cooked.
