Ottimista
(Restaurants - Mediterranean)
1838 Union St, San Francisco  94123 • 415-674-8400
Distance: ~1.10 mi *
        Description: COW HOLLOW. Playfully bestowed with the Italian word for "optimist" – that is, one who always believes that the glass is half full – this wine bar also has a way with Italian-inspired tapas. Offering more than 200 by-the-bottle options, Ottimista showcases a changing 25 by-the-glass selections, concentrating on northern Italian vintages. Choose your favorite, and couple it with items like truffled mushroom risotto, a hand-crafted salumi plate, artisanal cheeses, pumpkin ravioli, or a roasted half-chicken. A great date-worthy place.

Distance: ~1.40 mi *
        Description: HAYES VALLEY. This much-loved mainstay has evolved into one of San Fran's favorite restaurants.
