Great chicken – I have no complaints regarding the food. The charbroiled chicken and grilled Italian sausages are moist and flavorful. My only issue is with the service. On more than 3 occasions,i had to wait 15 minutes just to get someone to acknowledge me and it wasnt busy. Now i just prefer to order to go.

Charbroiled chicken, chops and steaks, portions that put other sissy SF "dining experiences" to shame, and quite possibly the best value for your dollar in the entire city make Il Pollaio a rare solid. The setting is informal but clean and warm, and the view of Columbus Avenue can't be beaten. ... read more
