Pizzetta 211 211 23rd Ave (California/Clement) San Francisco, CA 94121 415-379-9880 |
Pizzetta 211 is a small but cozy 4 table, 4 seat counter restaurant in San Francisco’s Richmond district.
It is located just off the Clement street neighborhood commericial district. The place specialized in thin crust artisan style pizza. They have a menu with some rotating options. Pizza is the draw, so we focused on it. The pizza is thin crust artisanal style.
Decor, Vibe – Pretty plan decor, the place is primarily functional. Pizzetta 211 feels like a small casual neighborhood restaurant transported out of Europe. Lots of locals, families and small groups were there.
Menu Pictures
Picks
Wine Glass
Artisan Cheese Salad ($8.75) with Organic Greens, Artisnal Cheeses and Spiced Walnuts was a good
salad with fresh greens, decent bread and cheese. A nice starter before the pizza.
Tomato, mozzarella & basil with pepperoni Pizzetta ($10) was a dinner sized thin pizza for one.
Lots of grease on top that can be wiped away. Very crunchy crust, fresh cheese. Couple pieces of good tasting pepperoni.
Panna Cotta Special ($5) with raspberries, was very smooth and creamy. Good stuff.
OK:
Rosie’s Farm Egg, Arugula Rabe, Redwood Hill Goat Cheese & Prosciutto Pizzetta ($13.75) was an unusual
combination for a pizza. The eggs where cracked and cooked poached style on top of the pizza.
The pesto had a strong flavor. Crust was thin and crunch throughout, even in the center. This pizza isn’t
open minded or adventurous eaters.
Pans:
None
This restaurant has an unusual home feel, because it is so small. The wait can get long, so go early.
You need to get your own napkins, utensils, and water. The wine comes in a plain glass but was very good.
Service is friendly and above average. Not a place to linger, with people waiting and watching you.
The bathroom is one of the few we’ve encountered that has a TV.
If you are into thin artisanal pizza, check this unusual place out. A16 and Pizzeria Delfina don’t
have the super crunch crust, but have better environments and better combinations on top of the pizza. Wine selection was minimal and markup was medium with glasses $7-$9 and bottles $26-34, and they charge $15 corkage. Bring cash.

I LOVE Pizzetta 211! My favorite is the one with egg on it – but I always love them all. Last time we had one with squash blossoms. Mmm, yummy. I would give the food a 3. It was cold last time but they have warmers outside and they brought us blankets.
Very cozy and fun.
