Beretta--Mission District
Greetings:
I was perfectly content to visit Delfina again but a friend of mine who lives in the area suggests Beretta. After viewing the online menu, please tell me there is something besides pizza to get me excited. Looks like a limited menu, unless I am missing something. Do they have great salad and bread, as they do at Delfina?...if I wanted to try something Italian besides Delfina or Beretta in the area are there places you can recommend OR will this be a good choice. Thanks

the items on Beretta's menu that are NOT pizza are actually very tasty - i was pleasantly surprised, as I recently went after not having been in years. on that first trip, i only had their pizza. their pizza is nowhere near as good as Delfina's. For me, their pizza is not just not as good as Delfina's (or Gialina's or Pizzaiolo's or La Ciccia's or Tony''s, or even Flour & Water's [which i didn't love]) - it's not good at all. While the other items at Beretta were good, the place is a huge scene and incredibly noisy if you sit inside. There's no reason to trade down from Delfina to Beretta's, in my mind.

Thanks everyone....the night before I will be in Palo Alto and looks like I will have to choose between Chef Chu's (Chinese) and Tamrine (Vietnamese).

Beretta's a fun and lively place for drinks and good food, maybe more of a bar than a restaurant, food's closer to Pizzeria Delfina than Delfina.
Incanto and La Ciccia are two other great Italian places in the same general part of the city.
