I am Italian. We passed by here by chance in 2017 and apparently 8 years later we are still talking about it. A dive into the past and a focaccia to remember; a bit on the soft side compared to the way we have them where I am from. Packed with care.

Love the variety of foccacia flavours. Decided to go with their popular pizza flavour. The foccacia was soft, pillowy with a nice chewy texture to it. The staff offered to cut it into slices so that we could eat it on the go. It was delicious but unfortunately cold so I didn't enjoy it as much as I had expected to. Wished that it was served hot.

Went here on a Wednesday morning 20 minutes after opening. Wasn't busy and no lines. Parking wasn't too difficult to find. Loved the old school, no-frill vibes of the shop. They sold merchandise, olive oil, cans of tomato sauce, their own dough on the counter. I ordered a pizza focaccia and for the size you get it's absolutely worth it. The dough itself is very soft, fluffy and bready while the ingredients didn't exactly have a pizza flavor, but it was still delicious. I lightly toasted it a few days afterwards and I loved how it came out. Overall, a staple in the neighborhood for a reason. Homemade goodness. Good customer service. Highly recommend going.

Hands down the best focaccia in the SF Bay Area. The pizza and raisin are my favorite. I've been coming here since the early 80s. You need to get here early because once they are sold out. They will closeshop.

First of all, I need yo say that my father passed away in 1976. I remember going to this place with him when I was s child. O honestly think this place has been here since the dinosaurs roamed the Earth. The focaccia is heavenly, the pizza one is good too. I'm not a fan of raisins, so no comment there. (thinking to myself) Maybe I should delete th1st sentence of this review. It's depressing to think about.

Got me some a few months ago. This is clearly the best focaccia I’ve ever had. The hype is real. I tried plan, onion and pizza. All chopped into bags for me. All just amazing, maybe even addictive.

I can give this place 10 stars! Best focaccia in town. I went around 9:30 in the morning and they only had 3 flavors left! Tried jalapeño cheddar which was delicious and soft as a cloud! It’s huge and totally worthy for $8. Also they accept both card and cash.

First time here. Ordered the pizza focaccia and the rosemary garlic focaccia. You can taste the aroma of the tomato sauce and the light texture of the bread. The sauce didn't make the bread soggy as I was thinking it would. The garlic/rosemary was my favorite of the two. For you garlic and rosemary lover, this is the one you must try. Fresh garlic taste with the awesome smell of the rosemary. This would go great with balsamic vinegar and olive oil. You need to go early before they get sold-out. I will be back for other selections.
