Item Description

$50 Gift Certificate to Restaurant Ideale in North Beach from Maurizio Bruschi, owner, chef and RVSD dad!

“For an authentic Roman holiday without the airfare, this undiscovered North Beach gem is worth seeking out.” (Zagat)

Ideale has been bringing a slice of Rome to North Beach for over 20 years with it’s highly acclaimed chef, Maurizio Bruschi. Maurizio hails from four generations of Roman chefs, lovingly taught by his grandma, la Nonna Serafina.

A bright, colorful Italian restaurant, Ideale is the modern version of a traditional Roman trattoria. It is “festive and boisterous…la vera cucina italiana.”

The pastas and breads are all homemade and the ingredients are hand-picked daily. The 2015 Zagat guide gave Ideale a 25 for food and wrote that the “Italian fare is the real deal…one of the few no tourist eateries in North Beach..excellent pasta and pizza..the service makes you feel like a friend..a delightful experience.” Ideale has won numerous awards, including being listed in Zagat’s “Best Italian Restaurants in America” and The Chronicle’s “Best Pasta in North Beach.”
