Everyone was happy with their orders. We had the spicy vodka rigatoni, margarita pizza, apple Fuji salad, Caesar salad. Their minestrone soup is delicious and so is their mussels in the most delicious broth.

Went for my wife birthday luncheon on a Wednesday at 11:30am. This fairly new restaurant is a great new addition to this area. The motif is modern style with an open concept including the kitchen and bar that looks out to the outdoor seating and street. Our dining service and food were excellent. The little gem Cesar salad, Crispy brussel sprouts,Spicy rigatoni vodka, Trattole chicken pesto, and Squid Ink Tonnarelli were delicious. They have an extensive beverage menu , and be sure to checkout their desserts. Will definitely return to tryout other dishes.

Great find in SF. Cozy spot away from some of the downtown action. Went with a friend and had a lovely experience. Exceptional service. Loved the food. Would absolutely come back again if I was in SF. Would gladly bring friends or coworkers for a dinner out.

Dinner at Bosco was brilliant. I had the tuna carpaccio (vibrant and colorful and fresh) with buttermilk and hibiscus syrup, the grilled hangar steak with roasted potatoes, onions and mushrooms in a red wine jus ( I needed a slice of Kaili’s sourdough focaccia to mop up every drop of that savory jus) , and, for dessert, an amazing pear crostata with layers of pistachio and sweet potato , accompanied by malted vanilla ice cream. Chefs Ryan and Kaili just keep getting better, together with their team, who create a warm, welcoming and sophisticated experience. I’ll be back.
