Description

Named for the Italian autoroute that begins in Naples, A16 Restaurant is a delightful combination of a sophisticated setting in the Marina; rustic, earthy food; and a well-thought-out Italian and California wine list with many unusual vintages, including 40 wines available by the glass, carafe, or in flights.

  • 2006 | Best Pizza

    A16's wood-fired ovens are tended by a certified pizzaiolo (expert in the making of artisanal pizzas), and the crusts here are glorious: thin, crisp, puffy, chewy, blackened in bits -- aka scotto, or scorched, as Italians prefer it. Whether topped with funghi, lots of whole mushrooms, grana padano (a hard cheese), garlic, oregano, parsley, and olive oil; carpeted with minced broccoli rabe, pecorino, garlic, chilies, olive oil, and nice fatty chunks of pale pink pancetta; or barely...

  • 2004 | Best Specialty Wine List

    Devised as a terrific complement to the novel, well-prepared southern Italian cooking highlighted at A16 (named for the autoroute that traverses Campania, the region around Naples including Capri and the Amalfi coast), this wine list (currently seven pages and continually expanding under wine director/co-owner Shelley Lindgren, veteran of Fleur de Lys and Bacar) features nearly two dozen wines from Campania, a good sampling from Sicily, and more southern Italian vintages from the neighboring...

  • 2004 | Best Trendy Dish

    We're not nuts about the word "trendy," but we don't remember ever seeing sformato on menus before, even in Italy, and recently we've been offered several versions of the frittatalike, crustless quiche. We liked the firm, square version made with stinging nettles (once cooked, no more stinging than spinach) served as a starter at Quince and the round one (called sformatino) of asparagus and Parmesan at the Liberty Cafe. But the light, puffy, golden sformato at A16 -- a baked, unmolded... More »
