Wander through North Beach’s storied streets, sampling a variety of regional dishes—from fresh focaccia sandwiches at a bohemian hangout to a sweet Italian finale—while a guide reveals tales of the Gold Rush era, Beatnik poets, and other neighborhood legends. Peek at where San Francisco’s oldest restaurant made movie history, discover the backstory of modern pizza, pop briefly into a haunted corner of Chinatown, and stand outside a bar steeped in local lore. You’ll even see where The Godfather was penned. This experience used to be solely about pizza—some older reviews may mention that—but the menu now showcases a wider range of neighborhood favorites. Enjoy a satisfying full meal, historical anecdotes, and spine-tingling stories in one unforgettable outing.
