A Neighborhood Trattoria Inspired by Northern Italy. Benvenuti da Tratto.

Tratto is a Northern Italian restaurant in San Francisco inspired by the warmth and simplicity of a classic neighborhood trattoria. Our menu highlights handcrafted pastas, seasonal ingredients from local vendors, and time-honored techniques. From fresh pasta dishes to thoughtfully prepared entrées, Tratto offers an approachable yet refined Italian dining experience—perfect for casual weeknights, shared plates, and lingering meals with friends and family.

What Does Tratto Mean?

Tratto is Italian for the stroke of a pen — a nod to the artists, writers, and performers who have called this corner of San Francisco home for generations. Every dish we make carries that same intention: simple, deliberate, and worth savoring.
