Mooie Italiaanse kaart met goede keuze mogelijkheden (niet teveel dus de kwaliteit was perfect). Heerlijke pasta gegeten en iemand een pizza. De pizza was minder (beetje verbrand aan de rand en erg vet door de kaas maar dat is Amerikaans vrezen we). De pasta’s waren heerlijk voor Amerika een beetje kleine porties zelfs ). Toetjes eveneens heerlijk. Een van ons moet glutenvrij eten en dat hebben ze perfect georganiseerd!

Inspired by Chef Halversonʼs mother, Sergeant Ma is a tribute to the strong and formidable Asian matriarch who shaped his approach to food and hospitality. Upon immigrating to America, she interpreted recipes her own way—adapting them with instinct, curiosity, and the flavors of her heritage. She served with joyful abundance and insisted that everyone at her table leave full—whether they expected dinner or not.After years of classical training, Chef Halverson still recognizes her as his greatest culinary influence. Sergeant Ma embodies her philosophies while bringing together Northern California's seasonality, San Franciscoʼs spirit of innovation, and a fresh infusion of Asian tradition, all while serving guests with the same generosity that defined Maʼs table. It's food that honors where it came from while embracing where it is.
