The welcoming Italian message at the door of Trattoria Contadina suggests guests to escape from everyday problems and enter this place . Full of San Francisco charm, the atmosphere here is homely and friendly with Italian majolica settings, celebrity photos on the walls and the sound of passing cable cars. This local favorite provides North Beach with Italian comfort foods, fresh pastas like Angle hair tossed with tomatoes, garlic, basil and olive oil, linguini and homemade meatballs and corkscrew pasta with sun-dried tomato... read more

gone downhill ... looking for somewhere new – This place used to be great. I don't know what happened. I swear they used to have some of the best sauces around, but I've gotten cold plates of bland sauce with overcooked pasta one too many times lately at TC and have given up. I brought someone there on a date and was embarrased when she got chicken that was overcooked on the outside and undercooked inside. The quality of the service has also dropped. Waiters used to be attentive and friendly, and now they barely have a pulse... read more
My fave in North Beach – The staff and manager make you feel welcomed there. The carppacio is to die for. Pastas as well as entrees are above average and the wine list is impressive and affordable.
very good pasta – Good italian, in a very cosy setting. Service was quick and efficient. We were there Sunday night and the restaurant was full - reservations recommended. Both our pasta dishes were very good - though not very creative, basic italian cooking, fresh ingredients. It's much better than most of the tourist-trap italian places on North Beach. There was one thing we were a bit disappointed about - the mozzarella di buffala salad was quite average, it was not the real mozzarella di buffala (or at least, not quite t... read more
The best Italian in the city – I have been going to this place for years and it just does not get any better. The service is great and the food even better. The pepper is the best starter and what a great spinach salad. I have never been disappointed. It's a great place for locals and it's a little bit away from all the touristy spots. The service is so great from the beautiful girl that works the door to the waiters that never miss a step. I take my guests here all the time and they always enjoy themselves.
wow – My husband took me to Trattoria Contadina on my birthday. It is a wonderful little restaurant with fanastic food. The ambience was delightful, very romantic. The portions were large, the wine was great, the atmosphere was quaint, and the food was absolutely fantastic, and the servers were wonderful. Thank you Citysearch for making my birthday dinner a memorable one.
has an old favorite lost its luster? – This has always been a favorite restaurant of mine, before this last visit. It was so different from before I even inquired to see if there had been a change of ownership. The waiter actually was not sure. The place was not packed, as I was accustomed to, but I thought that would be nice. The service was OK. The food was the same menu, but the kitchen seems to have forgotten how to cook. It was over condimented. Hopefully this was just a bad night. Not sure if I will risk going back.
Absolutely Perfect! – Atmosphere was fantastic - very friendly and cozy (tables very close together) - this is definitely not the place to go if you want a quiet dinner for two since you usually end up chatting with your neighbour! Food was superb - homemade italian ... like you were in someone's Italian grandmother's home. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.
Yummy Yummy Yummy! – This place is teeny tiny, but sooo worth the advance reservations. The wine and food is absolutely fabulous and although my boyfriend and I hardly repeat restaurants in the city, we are definitely coming back here!
service sucked! – one of the hostesses was way too busy entertaining a vendor that she could not be bothered to seat us, hellooooo? she's in the service industry and couldn't even manage a smile. the waiter was just as professional, instead of saying "excuse me, can you please repeat that?" he said, "WHAT? CAN'T HEAR YOU!" forgot to bring the soup before the entree and didn't even apologize. the only saving grace was the busboy. the food was plentiful but lacked flavor, very dissapointing evening to say the least.
