450 Hayes St
San Francisco, CA 94102
LOCATED IN THE HEART OF HAYES VALLEY. a Mano means "by hand" in Italian and refers to the way in which the kitchen and the bar approach the creation of each and every dish and cocktail. At the most basic level, A Mano is an Italian restaurant with an emphasis on pasta. Pasta-an inherently straightforward and inexpensive dish (the ingredients are simply flour and water!)-can, and should be, enjoyed at any time, for any occasion. Our menu consists of Italian specialties influenced by California cuisine and flavors that change with the seasons-and often daily, depending on what's fresh and available to our chef. The star of the menu is house-made pasta that we make, cut and cook by hand every day. What's more, filling up on our pasta is light on the wallet. Dinner at a Mano is always satisfying and easily accessible on any day of the week.
