CIAORIGATO

Richard Osoria 5 months ago

My wife and I dined here and felt underwhelmed. The focacciapan (bread) was the best part of the dinner. The Tonno and Pesto sushi had absolutely no flavor to it, also the rice is way too thick around those rolls, something was off. The ciaorigatoni was okay, and the hanger steak tagarashi yuzu was mid. If the potatoes were crispy it would have elevated the plate a little. The service was great, the atmosphere was nice too….Overall, it’s not a place that we would dine at again.

Tried Ciaorigato for the first time — the interior is gorgeous and very Instagram-worthy, but unfortunately the experience didn’t live up to the price. Drinks were a big miss. I specifically asked for something not sweet (similar to an Old Fashioned), but the “Ronan” cocktail was extremely sweet — almost like syrup. Service seemed a bit off in terms of drink knowledge, and slow. Food was not impressive: Itameshi Tagliere ($36++ for 2) Charcuterie board — nice presentation, decent but nothing special Tempura Misto Mediterraneo ($22++) — thick, oily batter, not really tempura, and please don't mislead your guests. Okonomiyaki pizza ($26++) — overly sweet and didn’t resemble okonomiyaki Uni Tagliatelle ($32++) — the best dish among all we ordered, but still just average Service was okay but slow despite the restaurant not being busy. We did receive a complimentary tiramisu, which was a nice gesture. Overall: great decor, but overpriced for the quality of food and drinks. Not a place I’d return to. Ciao!

Had a lovely dinner here with friends and Ciaorigato did not disappoint. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, the food is innovative Italian-japanese fusion and our server (Dejan) was fantastic treated us very well. We ordered an appetizer special, salad, squid ink pizza, and the rigatoni Bolognese with Shitake mushrooms which was a highlight for me. It was so good that we almost ordered another portion and I thought of this specific dish the rest of the week! The squid ink pasta was ok for me, but my friend enjoyed it more. Dejan, our server, also recommended that we must try the sesame tiramisu, and helped us pick a couple great bottles of wine. Excellent service! We'll absolutely visit again!

Came to the restaurant while visiting San Francisco for the first time. The fusion of food was truly something I had never seen before, we were so intrigued by everything in the menu. We tried the wagyu carpaccio, two rolls (the fungi and tartufo and another tuna roll). We had the ciarigatoni pasta and the hanger steak and ended with a sesame tiramisu. Everything was truly so delicious, tasty and innovative. However, the service was not up to par. Our server (whose name I don’t know because she never introduced herself) seemed lost and all over the place. We had to flag her down a couple times to order our food and even though we gave her a card when we first arrived to avoid the check coming to the table because it was my mom’s birthday. She, however, still managed to bring the the check to the table and left us with the toast tablet— When we reminded her about the card, she didn’t even mind to excuse herself for the mistake. Tony, was our busser, and if he wasn’t for him, we would have had an awful experience truly. He was so attentive to us, recommended us dishes, made conversation with us and gave us the service that our actual server did not provide.

My pictures look great don’t they? Well, that’s NOT how the food tasted. The food was average at best. The tempura was salty, and the batter was too thick. And the Japanese curry noodles were so dry and tasteless that I felt my throat was hurting swallowing. The only thing that was acceptable was the rigatoni - but again standard Italian flavor that one can make at home. Other dishes might be better, hope you try other ones. Just not the curry noodles or the tempura. Vastly disappointing.
