A glass of Chianti, sharing food with your friends, a Fellini movie. Sometimes, to feel like you're in Italy, you don't have to be there. Tigelleria Organic Restaurant. Traditional Northern Italian cuisine served with respect for our history, our culture, the world we live in and the one we hand on.
"Tigelleria is great for those of us who have food sensitivies like gluten, soy and casein. They offer gluten free cracker option for their first course and more than just one entry that meets the requirements. I just love this place."

"I can't say enough about the friendly, inviting, great service I received, esp. As a lone diner. And even moreso when I was shockingly unsatisfied with the fish dish I ordered. Thankfully, they were so generous as to replace it with the pork filet with apple-potato puree - actually the highlight of the dish. The kale salad was light and delicious. The espresso came with a tasy almond biscotti and small disk of chocolate. My only diappointment was that I expected. More flavorful entree."

"Authentic and healthy food fit for discriminating tastes! Great service with authentic Italian waiters are delightful. Must try this quaint restaurant. Noise level can get a bit loud when room is full but still a wonderful place to dine!"

"After hearing nothing but raves about Tigelleria from friends, I recently took a colleague and some clients there for lunch. Unfortunately, our experience was rather uneven. The service was knowledgeable and cordial, but slow. The highlight of the meal was the freshness of the ingredients, which were bursting with natural flavor. The steak ordered by my client was a major disappointment. He ordered the steak medium-rare, and it was brought out decidedly medium. This miscue was very apparent to my client, who is a professional chef himself, and a culinary academy graduate. The server agreed that the steak was overcooked, and he sent it back. However, when he brought out a new steak, it was medium-well - even more overcooked."

"Rather than bore one and all with a list of what I ordered (party of four) suffice to say every dish has good flavour, was not over cooked, was not cold , not scalding hot. Good use of fresh herbs, good meat selection and accommodating service, I'll absolutely be going back.
One tip. Park in the multi-level garage and walk over it's two minutes away. The back car park was busy."

"Tigelleria has a good assortment of authentic Italian dishes to try. Make sure to start off with one of there Italian meat samplers. Then move on to the home made pasta dishes. Service was good and our waiter was helpful in making decisions. There is a full bar and nice wine list to help round out your evening."

"Had Mother's day brunch at the restaurant. All the main entrees were great, and so was the complimentary sangria. Not as much selection for the other stuff, but understandable for such a small restaurant. Overall a very good dining experience."

"Didn't seem to have organization. No greeter at the door. Long wait for the first appearance of our waiter. Food was brought out while our appetizer dishes were still on the table, so we had to clear the appetizer dishes to make room for the food. Brandy peppercord sauce was not very flavorful. Friends swordfish was excellent. It was not a bad experience, but I don't want to go back either."

"This was a special treat. The wait staff were helpful + personal.My sister forgot her reading glasses so a loaner appeared! The menu was extensive; they let us choose from their dinner menu in addition to their lunch specials. My family went on and on about how delicious their beef courses were. The portions were on the small side but PLENTY and probably the amounts that are recommended for a healthier waistline. Next time i'd like to try their Fava Polenta dish. It looked good b/c veg. w/protein. The desserts were fantastic and rare ie the "salame" is never available in other establishments. Try the "Meringe..".It was excellent. Priceshigh end but organic and "free trade products" are not inexpensive. Can't wait to return!"

"i like having an option for organic dining. since i'm on a paleo/primal style, grain.free diet; i skipped all the pastas and resisted the tigelle bread and instead ordered a steak entrée and a nice salad. it was all very delicious."

"We started with bread with three spreads. Then came the freshest salads - I particularly liked kale in among the greens. Then I had pork which was tender and flavorful. It was on a puree of (I think) potato and apple. I might have liked more greens with it, but it was a delightful lunch dish. The espresso had a rich, non-bitter taste - very good."

"Drinks, food, and service were excellent. The restaurant is pretty small and the volume level of conversation was fairly high. One member of our group says "they are very good to vegans!!!""

"We always love this restaurant however our experience got off to a somewhat shaky start. Our 8:15pm table for six was "accidentally" given away to someone else so when we arrived they didn't have our reservation. However they quickly made a space for us and accommodated our group. The food, wine and overall experience didn't disappoint. I like the wide selection of Italian dishes that are out of the ordinary and very authentic!"

"Very good accommodating to my food requirements, initially the waitress was a bit confused. The service was poor though and I had to ask for things like a fork and salt and sat there a while my husband had his food already. Two different people came over and brought us the wrong order two times as well and they obviously weren't quite organized. The food, when it finally came, was very very good. They were very busy. I loved howcThey allowed you to linger and didn't rush you out of there as well as serve the normal not supersize portions. I wish they didn't bring the bread before the meal it would ave reminded me more of our whole evening long dinners In Europe."

"We arrived at exactly our reserved time and were told to take a walk because no tables were available. We came back 15 minutes later and were told the same message. After a bit past a half hour, we were finally seated. The food was mediocre and the bill worse than astronomical. I paid for all three of us. My son and daughter-ni-law like the place - it was his second visit, and her third. I will not be back."

"We've been here before and have always enjoyed this restaurant because there is always something different to try. The wines are affordable and the portions, although on the small side, allow the diner to have an appetizer, entrée and dessert without feeling too full. Will continue to patronize."

"Restaurant has a "French country" feel to it - very nicely decorated, but also very comfortable and quiet. The food is excellent and the menu has a surprising amount of choices for both vegetarians and meat-lovers for such a small restaurant. This is not an inexpensive meal, but definitely worth it because the quality of the food is so high. Families are welcomed as well, which really makes this a neighborhood gem!"

"I had lunch with a friend there .........and had not been there before for lunch. We each had a spinach salad and a small glass of wine. The spinach was fresh, tender but overall........not very tasty ! It needed more seasonings and/or dressing! Also........the wine list is limited and the wines expensive.
I will still go there again but probably for dinner!! The lunch menu is quite limited."

"I've been here twice and both times have been astounded by the food and quality of service. This time, the dessert stood out (affogato, which is simple, but they made it especially delicious). My companion's dessert (tiramisu) was amazing as well!"

"This was our second time coming to this restaurant and it again pleased all our senses. The food was well finely prepared and the service and ambiance supported the food well. I certainly would make this a top recommendation to anyone asking for a new Bay Area dining experience."
