Chef & co-owner, Mario and his delightful wife, Stephanie, have a knack for making you feel as if they are cooking and serving just for you at this super-reasonable North Beach nook offering robust Southern Italian fare reminiscent of his native Naples; whether you’ve snagged an outdoor table or are in the small, casual interior, it delivers a pasta fix. The menu changes daily to ensure freshness.
Meaning “goldsmith” in Italian, Orafo brings a tradition of craftsmanship to every dish and cocktail while paying tribute to San Francisco’s Gold Rush past. From fresh-made pastas, to locally sourced seafood and dishes made for sharing, the menu features Italian classics expressed through California’s bounty of local farmers and purveyors. Orafo is located on the Lobby Level at Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco at Embarcadero.
