This is a restaurant that does not even need a customer review. When I say service and food is outstanding, I mean in an international way absolutely outstanding in every single way there's nothing more to say if you're lucky enough to get a reservation here just sit back and enjoy.

.beautiful atmosphere. Well prepared food. I love that they serve bread and butter with your meal. Service was good and they even put a candle in our birthday desert. Hope to visit again.

Sociale is a Presidio Heights neighborhood gem that specializes in Northern Italian fare. The intimate dining room and adjacent heated patio provide a comfortable and quiet dining experience. Sociale prides itself on its pasta dishes along with seasonal mains that leverage local meats and produce. Duck Pappardelle has been a cornerstone of their menu for years and should not be missed. An approachable wine list (including many half-bottle selections) and courteous service make Sociale an excellent choice for date night, family dinner, or a business meeting in their private dining room.

Quaint Italian restaurant tucked away in an alley in the Presidio, a literal hidden gem. The outdoor and indoor areas are cute, cozy, and intimate. Staff are all very welcome and accommodating. All dishes we ordered that night were truly delicious. Flavorful appetizers and sides, tender fish and al dente pasta for mains. Both desserts were amazing as well. The blood orange panna cotta had such an intense refreshing orange flavor and perfectly complemented the rich chocolate oblivion cake. Highly recommend Sociale!

When you walk down the ramp to this hidden gem you are instantly transported to an intimate trattoria in Italy which is exceptional in every way. We started with the fried olives and the creamiest and freshly made burrata. And be sure to ask Jim Kennedy the learned Sommelier to make wine suggestions along the way which are always spot on and perfectly paired. He took time out to explain each wine recommendation in detail which adds another element to the perfect meal. Jim and our waiter Matt, recommended we try the duck Pappardelle and Pork pastas which came out of the kitchen hot and al dente and were the best this side of Italy. And we were equally impressed with the secondi recommendations which included the beef stew and game hen. We shared all the dishes which was a great way to broaden our dining experience. Our only regret was that we were to filled to try the desert wines which I know would have been paired with sweet offerings at the end. Now we have something to look forward to when we return!

Sociale is a hidden gem nestle in a secret entryway that one will mostly pass by if you are not in the know. It's kind of that European vibe. Understated. Good food and wine. Intimate. Used to come here with friends, but now we come by only on special occasions. Oh, almost forgot to mention, I love their panna cotta.

We ate here for belated Valentine's day and I am still thinking about that Chocolate Oblivion cake. It was absolutely delicious! Service was amazing and very conversational which was nice. Ambiance is cute and it's tucked away that it feels private. The food itself is tasty and they kind of have a "half" theme going for them where they offer half bottles of wine and you can do half and half pasta! The portions are not that big which seems to be a negative for others but personally we are not fans of being overstuffed and full so this was quite perfect for us. We will be returning!

Sociale Had the pleasure of coming here for a medical dinner and preset menu. I started off with the Burrata: Watermelon, lemon on zest, and Chile flake. Moved on to (my personal favorite) the Seared Scallops: braised corn, seared figs, and smoked sea salt. Then chose the Steelhead Trout: Blue Lake & Yellow wax beans, green olive & caper tapenade as my entree. And ended with the Blood Orange Panna Cotta with Candied kumquats. This was such a cute dinner place. Hidden behind an alley of stores, you stumble upon a nice Italian restaurant with outdoor and indoor seating. The food was amazing and service was great, so I'll definitely be back in the near future!

I stumbled upon this hidden gem with my friend when we were looking for a place to eat around the neighborhood. This place popped up on yelp with good reviews, and less than a mile away so we decided to give it a try! The entrance is very discreet - you have to walk down a short alleyway before you reach the courtyard of the restaurant, and then the actual indoor area is in the back. It wasn't a warm night, but the courtyard was so enclosed and so cute with heat lamps and string lights that we definitely opted to sit outside. We had such a good experience with both the food and the service that I took my mom back here for her birthday. We started out at the bar and ordered a half bottle of wine, and the sommelier made some really great suggestions, in addition to letting us taste some great wines. We then moved over to our table in the courtyard and got another half bottle of something he had suggested. For food, I ordered the same thing both times I've been here (the Cavatelli Bolognese). The pasta itself was unique and the PERFECT consistency, and the bolognese tasted very homemade. I will probably get this again when I come back hehe. 10/10. My mom got the Mushroom Bolognese with paperdelle, and while the noodles were good, the sauce itself was a little too sour. She was less impressed with her dish and preferred the Cavatelli. 6/10. To start, we got the crudo and a side of brussel sprouts. These were both very good but I would definitely try other appetizers on the menu such as the scallops and the burrata. 8/10 for the starters. Overall, this is very much a neighborhood restaurant with cute local vibes located in Presidio Heights. The food and the wine are delicious and I would highly recommend this place!
