As much as I love living in the Soma/South Beach district of San Francisco, I hate that when the weekend rolls around, the streets feel like a ghost town. The sandwich shops, Specialty’s and Toaster Oven, are closed. And Starbucks closes early. Yeah, there are the restaurants on Steuart, but how many times can I eat at Ozumo, Boulevard, and Americano without burning a hole in my wallet. Today, with the help of a friend of mine, I found a spot on Rincon Hill that will likely become one of those spots in which the waitstaff and chefs will come to know me.

It’s called Local Kitchen and Wine Merchant.

And who knew that Sundays, of all days I could have gone there, was all-you-can-eat Pizza night. Score! When you walk in through the main door of the restaurant, you will find a quaint wine tasting room on the left hand side (where they offer wine tastings daily). Then you walk through another door, and find the main dining area, and an open kitchen in front of you. The ambiance is very warm and comforting. We got seated, and before we knew it, waiters started coming around to our table offering a slice of their wood-fired pizza: Tomato and Basil, Roasted Mushroom and Green Olive, Veggie, Pepperoni and Coppa, Shrimp and Pesto, Hawaiian and much more. The pizza’s just kept coming, and you could just keep eating. Can’t get better than that, right?

It can. All of this for just $12.95 per person. Furthermore, they also offer $9 carafe’s of red and white wines. How have I never stumble across this place before?

The pizza wasn’t quite near Delfina-calibur (my favorite pizza place in the city), but for the price and ambiance, I’m really not complaining. I am just glad that I found a place within walking distance from my pad that satisfies my Sunday night cravings.
