The similarities between Rivoli (1539 Solano Ave) and Eccolo (1820 Fourth Street) are pretty striking: both feature light, warm yellows, garden settings, Italian cuisine, and high prices. Were their menus not vastly different, I would even venture a guess that they at one point shared the same staff members (chefs, managers, designers, even a waiter or bartender).

The food is decidedly more Italian and a bit heavier than Eccolo, however, and if you're looking for that (perfect on a winter night), then Rivoli is a good stop. The grilled chicken breasts with prosciutto and sage, roast new potatoes with rosemary and garlic, baby spinach , marsala jus and truffle oil or wild mushroom cannelloni with rainbow chard, ricotta, rouille, roast shiitake mushrooms, fonduta, salsa verde and toasted breadcrumbs are proof that Rivoli still supports its local growers. And after you've eaten all of your vegetables, what better way to reward yourself than with a warm brown butter and pear tart with whipped crème fraîche and balsamic syrup or a warm chocolate truffle torte with vanilla ice cream and chocolate and caramel sauces?
