Che Fico, is a California Italian restaurant from Chefs David Nayfeld and Matt Brewer in San Francisco's NOPA neighborhood. The food focuses on Italian cuisine through the lens of California. It’s our vision of Northern California as if it is a region in Italy, our connection to the region, and our love for Italian culinary practices. The rustic, market-driven menu features handmade pasta, pizzas, antipasti, housemade salumi, meat, and fish plus dishes from the Jewish-Roman heritage known as “Cucina Ebraica.” The beverage program focuses heavily on both Italian and Californian wines with a cocktail program that utilizes a variety of spirits, amaros, and seasonal ingredients. Che Fico is a place to gather with friends and enjoy warm hospitality, food, and drink, through an approachable menu and convivial ambiance.

    Great food, very good service. Don’t understand the noise level though. It was crowded, it was loud - yet they blare music. Ironically, as the evening progressed and the restaurant began to empty, and the noise level correspondingly decreased, they appeared to turn down the volume? Please - really - lower the volume! We’d like to talk to our friends, not shout.

    Always an awesome dining experience at Che Fico. The staff is attentive, passionate and fun! Food and drinks consistently come out on time. The food itself is PHENOMENAL - probably my favorite Italian food in the city. Worth every penny!

    We were running incredibly late due to traffic and they held our table and didn’t give us any grief when we arrived, which was so appreciated. Service was amazing and food was great as always - unique combinations of flavors and always incredible preparation & presentation. This is one of our go-to’s for a reason!
