About this business
The tiles of this trendy eatery are Tuscan red. The food, too, hails from Northern Italy. Equally popular with locals and tourists looking to soak up North Beach ambiance, the menu at Ristorante Ideale is not large, but there is not a bad choice on it. The pasta is made in-house and is always cooked to a highly appealing al dente. Try the fettuccine with lobster in a light cream sauce with a hint of tomato for an example of how terrific simple, expert preparation can be.

Food was fantastic. Ambiance was pleasant. I would definitely go back!!
The appetizer salads were wonderful. Fennel, oranges, Gorgonzola, walnuts with champagne vinaigrette was awesome. Zucchini crostini salad was great, too. The entrees were okay. A plus that pasta is made in the restaurant. Gnocchi was light and very well done. The tiramisu was outstanding! Didn’t have our reservation, which we made a month out. Early enough kept it from being an issue.
Enjoyed the special event centered on Tuscan dinner. Delicious food and drink. But the noise level from the diners was so loud that we could not hear across our table. I left with a headache from it and the crashing dishes. Go on a quiet night if you want a romantic dinner. Otherwise bring ear plugs. The food is great. But not worth the noise level we experienced. That is the reason I gave it only 4 stars on our night there.
We are from Austin, Tx and this restaurant was recommended from a friend who lives in the area. By far the best Italian food we have had since Italy. The ambiance and service were equally as amazing as the food. Highly recommend this place.
Delicious food and great service! Even sat us by a fan on an unusually hot evening! Perfetto! Molto bene! Grazie!
Amazing pasta! Everything great but the tortellini and mezzeluna really stood out.
Absolutely THE best Italian restaurant. Great food and top notch service.
