    exceptional experience which has managed to maintain a fresh/non commodified feel despite the hype/popularity; friendly and personal service, super fun vibe... the staff all seemed to genuinely enjoy working there and were very playful with guests - we really enjoyed our visit before a show at 1015 folsum. We had drinks/desserts, all were delicious.

    We had such a great experience sitting at the counter last night at Barberio Osteria! It's so ready to find a restaurant in San Francisco that has decent lighting and the lighting in this place was wonderful, making the space feel cozy and comfortable. The temperature was warm enough unlike so many San Francisco restaurants and the food was delightful.

    My wife daughter and I went for our Anniversary and it was awesome! We had a great waitress. They even got my daughter gluten free bread since she is allergic to wheat. We got the schnitzel and two cheese fondues and what could be better than bread, meat and cheese! It was a great night!
