Re-Opening June 2, 2021

A spirited, bar-driven restaurant serving rustic Italian fare with modern sensibilities. Tratto means the stroke of a pen or a mark in Italian, nodding to both the neighborhood’s artistic history and the name of The Marker, the boutique hotel next door.

Tratto’s flavorful menu of simple, delicious and shareable dishes coupled with casual, communal-style dining creates a neighborhood bar experience inspired by the Italian tradition of “aperitivo,” or happy hour.

Guests can enjoy playful twists on classic Italian cocktails, boozy Italian sodas, and beer and wine from California and Italy, including a jug of house wine from the taps.

Choose from a wide selection of traditional small-plate antipasti, house-made pastas and pizzas, entrees served family-style, seasonal side dishes, and classic Italian desserts including ice creams, gelatos and sorbets.

Tratto's Feast Of 7 Fishes
$125.00 per person
Prepaid
Dec 18, 2024 - Dec 24, 2024
The Feast of the Seven Fishes is an Italian American Christmas Eve celebration that operates similarly to Thanksgiving, with traditional dishes and practices that span generations, decades and oceans. Known in Italy as La Viglia, which translates to The Eve, as in December 24 or Christmas Eve, The Feast of the Seven Fishes isn’t a religious celebration.

Lovely service and some high quality food. Our sever was so very sweet and really kept her eye on the clock for our 730pm show. The pasta was amazing. The pizzas are good. Salads were both super yummy.

The pasta that I ate was fantastic. The drinks were all good. My dates steak was not the best cut of meat, I’d stick with the pasta on future visits. I My date was very late and the restaurant was still very accommodating to us, which I appreciated greatly.

We went to a show at the Curran and came for dinner at Tratto afterwards. Our server and other staff were very warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere and food were excellent. We had the flatbread appetizer (probably enough for 3 or 4 people) and shared the spinach tagliolini, both of which were homemade and delicious.
