We went out to try out Delfina Pizzeria in Pac Heights tonight. We’ve heard rave reviews of their location in the Mission but wasn’t looking forward to a long wait in line at the Mission so chose the newly opened one close to our apt.

We shared a delicious bottle of wine and started off with their yummy breadsticks.

We started with their tripe appetizer served with chili oil (delicious! spicy that it gets you in the back of your throat at the end) and some sea salt.

This was a pork pasta dish. The pork was more of a thinly sliced pork roll with a side of very yummy mac ‘n’ cheese. The pork a bit fatty. The sauce was yummy.

Last but not least, the salsiccia pizza with homemade fennel sausage, tomato, bell pepers, onions, and mozzarella. Everything was very fresh and the dough nice and chewy. I felt the toppings were the right portion but Ron said he felt it a bit lacking, he needed a bit more toppings and more spice. On the side they provide a stick of dried rosemary (?), grated cheese, and dried red chili peppers.

Overall, a nice evening. We sat outside and with the heaters above, it was perfect Friday evening.
