Description

If you're aiming for a little slice of Italy, pop into this spot in the Mission where those behind the counter are quick to offer a tour of the world via vino. The 10-page, soft-leather-bound wine menu, arranged first by style and then by region, offers something for oenophiles of all stripes. Salumi and small plates such as gnocchi complete the experience. There is limited seating for about 10 at the bar and another 20 at tables. If you've celebrated with too much fruit of the vine, there's a $5 single-pot of earthy Italian coffee for the BART ride home.

  • 2008 | Best Salumi

    This charming, rather casual small cafe and wine bar is so proud of its salumi collection that it constructed a special glass display case for both art and industry. Hanging salamis and cheeses make for enticing sculptural compositions, while a salumerio carves little masterpieces for you to admire on the plate before conveying to your mouth. Bar Bambino cures some of its own meats, and acquires others from local and international artisans. Knowledgeable servers will tell you what's on hand... More »
