A Noe Valley Jewel

Incanto is my favorite new restaurant in years. The owner/host is gracious and friendly. Every dish I've tried in my two visits has been flawless. The menu changes frequently, and everything tastes fresh and exciting. The simple dish of penne pasta with tomatos and cheese melted on top was so good that I was still thinking about it days later. The ribeye steak, which appears to be a regular item, was done to perfection. The wine list is first-rate, and the staff helps with selections. My only small complaint is that the menu on any given evening is not particularly large. But there's plenty to tempt you, so that's not a big worry. Go and enjoy this place before it's overrun.
Pros: Menu Changes Often, Friendly Service, Good Acoustics
