Americano Restaurant and Bar

Editorial Review

Nestled inside the Hotel Vitale and perched on the edge of San Francisco's world famous waterfront, this invigortating restaurant takes itself seriously. Ingredients are parched from the San Francisco Ferry Plaza Farmers’ Marketplace, keeping them local, and more importantly, fresh. The inspired  blend of focuses northern Californian cuisine with rustic Italian sensibility is personified by the sublime Pizza "Margarita," made with classic touches like fontina, and then given Golden State treatment by adding Jalapeno and lime. It's the californication of pizza.
