Restaurant can get a little busy, reservations are always good to make. Best plates to order are the neon ravioli and the lasagna. If you REALLY are a garlic fan, try the bagna calda, spread it on a slice a bread and enjoy....tastes like butta!!! Good luck on finding parking, that can be a bit of a challenge, but if you are adventurous, park near union square, and take the bus (or cable car) up to North Beach.
Pros: food, ambiance
Cons: parking, restaurant a little crowded
