Awesome little slice of Italy in the Mission. You have to take a number and wait a bit before getting your turn at the counter, but it's definitely worth the trouble. Go for their fresh made raviolis and pastas, fresh pesto and salads, and dozens of different types of deli meats like prosciutto or Spanish ham, etc. The shelves are full of interesting Italian imports like wine, sardines, olives, tubes of tomato paste, biscotti. I love browsing here and this is the perfect place to get picnic materials before heading out to Dolores Park. Only downside is that the deli items can get expensive.
