This has definitely been some of the best Italian food we’ve had in the Bay Area. The menu is flexible with a solid range of options to order from that feel authentic and modern. Cannot say enough about the atmosphere – from the interior design to the music, you feel transported to culinary heaven. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. We had reservations for a late dinner that we were hoping to move up, they said they’d let us know if something opened up and they stayed true to their word! We got in earlier at the bar and it did not take away from the experience at all. Don’t forget to get some vino!!

Wow! The food here is amazingly good! I had the Dinner Party tasting menu, which was phenomenal — every dish was delicious, made with care, and super tasty. This was the best meal I’ve had in quite some time. *****

Cute spot for a date night. The food was delicious. Would recommend the corn arancini and spinach raviolini. The cacio e pepe was too cheesy and heavy in my opinion and so I didn’t enjoy it as much. For desserts, the olive oil cake was light and spongy paired with stone fruit.

Our favorite restaurant for creative pasta in San Francisco. Agnolotti del plin is a must-have for every meal here (in our family) and we complement with one of the seasonal pasta specials and a meat. Penny Roma always hits the spot.

I had an amazing time at Penny Roma. It was super busy for a Tuesday due to an event at a nearby bar. Even with how busy it was, several wait staff took time to luck after us, the food was unreal, we started with the halbut and trout, then moved on to pasta, Cavatelli, Agnolotti and nightly special were had. The pasta here is fantastic, perfect texture and flavor. The only letdown was the chicken. It was overdone, but really flavorful, you could tell that if it wasn’t dry or would be a really good dish, we ended up incorporating it with pasta to get the sauce in the bowl and that worked out well. I will be coming back for sure.

Incredible seasonal Italian food in the mission. We ordered the chefs tasting and were blown away. Everyone we interacted with was fantastic and took such great care of us. A special thank you to Ashley for making our night so special. We will definitely be back.

Fun and energetic atmosphere. Lots of great options on the menu. Best to go with a big group so you can order a bunch of items (like we did). Interesting flavors on some of the pastas but overall a good meal and experience!

Honestly surprised how good the service was considering all the negative reviews I read about it before going ( I was nervous) but the hostess and server were super nice and attentive! Food was great.

Food was good. I really enjoyed their arancini and cacio e pepe. Noise level can be high. Locations is great. I just felt that service can be a little bit improved; like bringing water when the bottle is empty without having to ask.
