My wife and I really enjoyed our dinner at Penaber Mediterranean. The food was delicious and the service was warm and friendly. It is a very small, cozy restaurant perfect for an intimate dinner without being overly formal. The flavors in the food that they prepared for us were delightful, truly tasted like old family recipes. We will certainly do our best to dine there again when we next visit San Francisco. We highly recommend!!
