Description

SPQR, the second venture from the people behind A16, started off as a rustic trattoria. Then Matthew Accarino took over the kitchen and has veered off in a completely different direction at this Fillmore restaurant.

His pastas range from whole-wheat bigoli with duck and kale to nettle tagliatelle with pancetta and chicken livers. And his signature rabbit roulade with stone fruits and mustards is exquisite -- and not rustic at all.

  • 2011 | Best Restaurant Reinvention

    It's rare for a restaurant to survive a big transition without a name change and significant rebranding. But when Nate Appleman left SPQR to move to New York, his replacement, Matthew Accarrino, took the food in a radically different direction. Of course, the focus stayed nominally Italian, but Appleman's rustic Roman cuisine gave way to some of the city's most forward-thinking food -- Wagyu beef tartare with smoked egg dressing, quail with burnt orange sauce, whole wheat bigoli with...

    SPQR, the smaller and more casual (no reservation, no tablecloths) Roman-style osteria on Fillmore opened by the folks who own the excellent A16 in the Marina, offers a half-dozen fried options. All are delicious, but our favorites are the chewy little sweetbreads flavored with garlic and oregano and served with cooling chopped celery and lemon wedges; the iconic Brussels sprouts with garlic, capers, lemon, and parsley, ordered by just about everybody; and chicken livers still meltingly tender under their crisp crust. Dishes rotate on and off the list: We also recommend potatoes fried with pancetta, chiles, and pecorino; cauliflower with chiles and lemon; and tiny balls of mozzarella treated to a bath of spicy tomato sauce.
