Pink Onion: A Culinary Delight in San Francisco’s Italian Pizza Scene

Had dinner here with a friend from out of town, we arrived later in the evening and the place was full. We stood outside waiting for an outside table to open up. Once we finally sat- the server turned on the heater for us and took our order pretty quickly. The food came out and was delicious. We ordered both pizza and pasta and both were amazing!

Pizza is INSANE, super nice staff, place is popping at 9 on a Sunday night so glad I was able to get a table, definitely a top tier neighborhood staple 10/10 recommend

Came here for the Wine Wednesday dinner where we got an appetizer, pasta, pizza, dessert, and wine for $60. Given that is more than plenty for 2 people, this is hard to beat in SF. We ordered the Parma e Burrata to start, Pasta Tartufo, the Pink Alarm Fire pizza, and a rosé. As always, the Parma e Burrata and the pasta were spot on. Our waiter recommended pizzas #3, #11, or #24, and the Pink Alarm Fire did not disappoint. The wine was more or less what you would expect from a ~$10 bottle, nothing special but perfectly fine with the meal. Overall, Wine Wednesday continues to be a great option for a night out, and I look forward to coming back.

Just had an OK experience, the staff isnt organized, e.g 3 different servers or staff just not communicating, checking in every 3-5mins, although we said we were fine. To begin, my cutlery was noticeably dirty, and it took forever to get a replacement, the appetizers came out before the cutlery, and I had to remind them. Also had to ask for small plates to share the appetizers. They also messed up the order because too many people were attending to us and not communicating effectively. We had two pizzas which were decent, and then had the meatballs appetizer and also mussels and pasta, which were just OK. Meatballs were good, but the pasta lacked flavor and taste, mussels were bland. Dont see myself returning here anytime soon, or if at all. I saw lots of TO GO orders for pizza going through the door, but I think they need to do better regarding to dine in patrons.

Came with a group 3 knowing that we would order the $60 dinner deal and thinking of adding a side order if it didn’t fill us up but the portion size was actually super generous and we left stuffed!! The magic mushroom pizza was delicious with the hint of truffle that you can taste from the oil and the mushrooms and prosciutto went so well together. We all loved the pesto di pistachio pasta- creamy but also light at the same time and it paired really well with the salad! The restaurant itself is pretty small so highly recommend booking a reservation! The dinner deal is definitely worth it and would def come back :))

I’d wanted to check out Pink Onion for a while and it was totally worth it! They’ve got a nice wine selection that goes really well with their food. The pasta tartufo was amazing, super creamy with seasonal truffle and Parmesan. I also tried the Gotham pizza, which seems to be a local favorite, and both were absolutely delicious.

Service 5/5 We have been here multiple times now and the service is ALWAYS outstanding. Gabe is the man! Ambiance 5/5 This is a cozy little restaurant and the vibe is always cool. Subtle music playing in the background and they have 2 tvs that are on with some type of sports playing. Food 5/5 We have tried multiple dishes here and you cannot go wrong with whatever you pick. Vodka pasta is one of our favorites as well as the mushroom pizza. Yummy! I can't find all my pics for this spot but trust me and know you will enjoy this place. They accept walk-ins but it gets busy and the best thing you can do is make reservations. Wednesdays is the social combo day that includes a free bottle of wine!

We ordered takeout and tried their Magic Mushroom Pizza, Patataccia Pizza, and Parma E Burrata Plate. Parma E Burrata Plate came with Prosciutto di parma, burrata, arugula, candied pear, cherry tomato, and aged balsamic. The aged balsamic tasted amazing, sweet and tangy, but not overpowering. It paired well with all the ingredients. The Magic Mushroom Pizza was made with an olive oil base, mozzarella, tomato sauce, crimini mushrooms, black pepper, truffle oil, and prosciutto. It was really delicious. Even with the truffle oil and prosciutto, the flavor was not overwhelming and stayed nicely balanced. The Patataccia Pizza came with Olive oil base, mozzarella, potatoes, scallions, garlic, mild calabrese peppers, and ricotta. One thing I liked was the sliced potatoes, which added an interesting texture. I would highly recommend trying this pizza.
