Came here with sky high expectations based on how hard it was to get a reservation. I think maybe I hyped to it up too much, but ultimately it was a great meal. Partly my fault for not asking the waiter what certain appetizers were. But I wasn't

Visited Cotogna, which is the more casual sister restaurant to Quince next door. Absolutely loved my experience there! We learned that the meal production starts around 3:30am each day, when the produce is freshly picked from their farm which is abou
Service was friendly, efficient and professional.
We brought our own wines from our private collection (#HowellMountainVineyard Cab Franc- delish!). Wine service seemed a bit off, not quite the engaging personality one would expect. The tasting pour upon opening a bottle was closer to a full pour.

Really enjoy the decor and ambiance here, and the food is generally solid with plenty of delicious pasta dishes. That said, my last two visits didn't feel quite as impressive as my first one. Wondering if the overall experience justifies both th

The raviolio and corn triangoli were the most insane things I've ever experienced. I'm the kind of person that didn't believe in paying a lot of money for pasta but this place definitely proved me wrong. The service was nice and got ou

For some reason this place was locked for reviews for a while, but what I remember about this place was that it's super hyped....and surprisingly it met expectations. Hard to kind of book, but everything here was pretty good.

Came here to celebrate a birthday and boy was it hard to snag a reservation! We ended up getting one of the last remaining ones of the night and were seated outside. The waiters were kind enough to set us up with a space heater and warm blankets to f

Happy to finally be able to confirm for myself - Cotogna absolutely lives up to the hype! I came for lunch on a Friday with pasta in mind. We ordered the corn triangoli, the famous raviolo, and the agnolotti del plin. I truly had the most delicious

I stopped by Cotogna for the Gelato cart.
Jennifer Felton is the executive pastry chef, and formulates the gelato flavors. The cart operates Thursday-Saturday from noon to 4:30. Here are the flavors I sampled: 4.5: Vanilla & honeycomb: Great flavor, but it was too sweet. 4.4: Dark choc
Cotogna in San Francisco: A Delightful Find!
This past Friday, my eldest son and I were in the Bay Area for an awards program at UC Berkeley. Not wanting to miss an opportunity to enjoy downtown San Francisco we spent all day Saturday sightseeing and eating -- plus dropping in on William Stout
Trendy but Hardly Terriific.
We had dinner here with another couple. Noise level made it impossible to have a conversation. As well, rhere were no double doors, so our table, which was close to the door, was subject to cold winds all night as people were coming and going. S
Tasty but too expensive
Good & friendly service, upbeat environment inside. We arrived on time however our reserved inside table was going to be at least 25 minutes to wait for which we didnβt appreciate So made alternate seating arrangements Pasta is delicious but
One of my favorites for Italian in SF!
One of my favorites for Italian in SF. SOOOO sad to see it closed M-Thursday for lunch!! Can get a bit loud in there at times though or maybe im just getting older!!!
Great solo trip
The staff were very helpful and knowledgeable. Partially a tall gentleman with tattoos that was behind the bar on the evening of 14th June 2023.
Good food and service
The food, ambiance and service was excellent. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating. We reserved the outdoor seating - very comfortable with heat lamps. The portions are small but the food is delicious. We shared the butternut squash tortelli
One of my all time favourite restaurants
We happened upon this restaurant as we were walking around the neighbourhood. We were visiting from Canada and this was the end of our trip. They were completely booked up but told us to come back in 30 minutes and they could accommodate us at the
Donβt Miss Cotogna!
Dinner and Service Exceptional! Great ambience whether you are sitting at the bar watching the chefs /bartenders or at tables. The patio area is creatively designed which adds to the atmosphere. Blankets and heaters provided. The staff make each cust
Superb lunch at Cotogna
I had a superb lunch at Cotogna in San Francisco. The menu was very interesting and I would have liked to try multiple options but eventually settled on a blue fin tuna starter and black cod main. Both proved to be excellent choices. The wine list wa
Sadly uncommon example of what can be achieved when a restaurant owner cares.
A rare bird.. I've been going there since it opened. It's incredibly difficult to run a restaurant, especially one that you can are proud of, one that feeds your own soul, not just your customers. Because of this, Cotogna attracts and retai

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal! Probably in our top 10 SF restaurants. the butter corn pasta is a MUST. Initially we were skeptical, but it's almost like a dessert pasta -- sweet but not too sweet. I really enjoyed the blue fin crudo and Arancini as wel
Hands down one of the best places to go to for Italian food.
The service makes you feel like you are some high VP person. Waiters are so nice, come and explain everything to you as they are bringing it out. We were vegetarians as well, and when we were ordering a dessert we didn't realize that the top layer w

My pasta wasn't what I expected & to my surprise the manager and the bartender went above and beyond to value what I had to say and make the situation right . Customer service is sometimes lacking and I have to say everyone here is so kind . I al
A friend selected this location the evening before we went.
She was able to secure a reservation (CC required) for 8pm on a Saturday night for outdoor seating. The restaurant is located along the edge of the financial district and north beach. I was able to find street parking right away. We are early
I wish I could give more than 5 stars.
This place is incredible. Food was out of this world, and the service could not have been more amazing. I went for my anniversary with my boyfriend and they even printed us placemats saying happy anniversary with our names on it. I cannot wait for t

was so excited about finally trying cotogna! everything was absolutely delicious and surprisingly light for italian food! my favourite dishes were the corn pasta and the arancini, and the salad was also surprisingly delicious
Very high quality Italian food.
Not cheap, but a great option if you're looking for a special night out. Service was very good, and all the food we tried was amazing. We especially liked their selection of homemade pastas. This place also has some of the nicest parklets in the cit

This place has been on my list for a while and it didn't disappoint! Top notch service, fresh and local ingredients, warm & inviting ambiance. Perfect spot for a client dinner / impressing guests!
Great anniversary dinner.
Was dressed very causal after a day of sight seeing and greeted and treated like a million bucks. Sommelier was spot on with recommendation and wine service. Dining room was warm and lively but not loud.
One of the harder tables to get
Two notches below Vetri Cucina @ Philly, yet itβs the golden boy on the block. Says everything about SF food scene. (Food wise)
Make a reservation well in advance!
My second visit did not disappoint. Went early and sat at the bar. Amazing pasta. Great wine list. Cozy atmosphere and ample outdoor seating. Walking distance from Embarcadero area.

I visited this place for lunch on Monday, and I must say, it was beyond my expectations. The place is packed, but the food is fantastic. Their pizzas are a must try. It's a fun and vibrant place to be. I am planning to go there for dinner next time.

Walked in on a sunny Saturday afternoon at around 4pm and was able to get seated immediately inside (iykyk how hard it is to get a rez at Cotogna) The restaurant was still pretty busy and full, but the staff and sommelier did a great job introducing

This place was decently priced for what you get!! Personally I still like other Italian restaurants better but it was worth the visit. The Agnolotti was not my favorite. Basically no sauce it's just like the soup juice from the beef that's inside the

I agree with so many.
The service and ambience was great. The food really misses the mark. Out of 4 dishes 3 were severely oversalted. The Chicken was so salty I could not eat it. The only dish of the 4 that actually tased good was the agnolotti which was perfectly cooke
My very favorite restaurant in San Francisco.
Always fresh and innovative food. A must

Delicious food only surpassed by extraordinary service
Don't get me wrong, food is wonderful. 3 pasta dishes were superb; creative sauces and pastas that simply don't get any better. A Focaccia from a specific region in N. Italy, was a taste sensation. An Italian Chardonnay was beautifully balanced. Eve
Great Meal
Great spot in Jackson Square area. Outdoor seating with heaters or indoors. Italian menu with very high quality food. Run by the same folks as Quince (Michelin 3 star). Server never brought my beer and despite saying she would bring parmesan never di
Delicious!
We sampled several of the dishes and the meal was delicious. Spuntini: gnocco fritto with prosciutto, gorgonzola and pickled onion Antipasti: little gem salad with blue cheese, asian pear and walnut Pasta: sunchoke tortelli, agnolotti del pin, pappa
A mixed bag
This is a highly regarded restaurant that we were both pleased about and disappointed in. The service was exceptional - A+ - with knowledgeable and helpful staff throughout. The outside sitting area is one of the nicest of all the covid era outside d
COTOGNA - SIMPLY THE BEST!
We absolutely love Cotogna. YES, we believe one of the best restaurants in San Francisco. From food to wine to service it is outstanding . But it is very difficult to get reservations - especially when we live in Utah and fly in with a short te

We found this place because it was close to the hotel we stayed at. We enjoyed our walk over. Look at the menu was a little intimidating because we couldnβt pronounce any of them! But our server was super nice and extremely helpful when we asked qu
Date night in SF
It was good but not five star. I didnβt like the fact that our wine was kept away from table and were reliant on someone bringing the bottle to table. I also thought it was overpriced for what is essentially pasta dishes (more than twice what youβ
Always a joy to eat here.
The food in incredible and the service and ambiance to match. Many many regulars here.
Connect with users posting reservations for Cotogna San Francisco
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Cotogna San Francisco. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Cotogna San Francisco at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Cotogna San Francisco page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $5.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $5.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at Cotogna San Francisco to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $5 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Cotogna San Francisco!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
