At Delfina, though owner-chef Craig Stoll eschews fashionable culinary trends in favor of simplicity and tradition, his food is never ordinary. On his daily rotating menu, Stoll showcases fresh pastas along with deeply satisfying meat and seafood dishes like Berkshire pork belly with octopus, cockles and garbanzo. While Delfina sticks to more sophisticated dishes, next door at Pizzeria Delfina (and in newer locations in lower Pacific Heights, Burlingame and Palo Alto) you’ll find some of the best Neapolitan-style pizza in town including the perennial favorite clam pie with cherrystone clams and hot peppers.
Delfina

Time Out says
Sophisticated, traditional Italian food in the Mission.
