It was easy to make a Yelp reservation for 5 around 6:30pm on a Friday day-of. It feels slightly upscale sit-down experience, with an intimate ambiance and low lighting.The service is fast and attentive. If you're able to catch the owners and ask them about the menu, you'll learn that they're very passionate about the quality of their food! Would recommend talking to them if it's not too busy.The burrata and prosciutto with fresh bread was so good! Would recommend as an appetizer. Personally, I felt like the truffle pizza was big enough to split between two people. Beautiful presentation all around.

This was my first time trying Uva Enoteca and I am thoroughly impressed with the quality and taste! I tried the Orchiette Cime De Rapa (broccoli pesto with house pork sausage) and the Paccheri Funghi E Salsiccia (mushroom, truffle paste, and house pork sausage). Both dishes stood out for their simplicity and excellent execution. The broccoli pesto pasta was fresh and flavorful, with a creamy pesto sauce that tasted light but still packed a punch. The broccoli gave it a subtle earthiness, while the sausage added just the right amount of savory richness. The pasta itself was perfectly al dente, giving every bite a satisfying texture. The truffle mushroom pasta, however, was the star of the meal in my opinion. The truffle's aroma was bold but not overpowering, complementing the earthy mushrooms beautifully. The sausage brought balance to the dish with its smoky, hearty flavor. Again, the pasta was cooked to perfection, highlighting the care that went into the preparation. Both dishes were fresh, well-balanced, and incredibly satisfying. This spot knows how to do pasta right, and I'll definitely be returning soon. Highly recommend!

Uva Enoteca is an underrated gem in Lower Haight. They changed ownership earlier this year, and the new owners are very warm, inviting, and passionate about sharing Puglian cuisine. We followed the owner's dish recommendations and were so glad we did!We ordered the burrata appetizer, orecchiette pasta, and fungi pizza. The burrata is incredible! The owner shared that they import it directly from Italy. The orecchiette was our other standpoint dish - we loved the combo of the crispy breadcrumbs and savory sausage. I typically mix it up and try different places, but I've gone back to Uva multiple times since our first visit! The staff is always so kind and welcoming. We order the burrata and orecchiette every time. So glad Uva is in the neighborhood!

The service and ambiance were lovely but unfortunately the food was not as good as the vibes (wine list was good though). My party of 3 ordered the marinated vegetable appetizer with the pugliese bread; vegetables were good but nothing special and bread was unfortunately underwhelming. We got the orecchiette and the "not sandwich" sandwich. Orecchiette was a little cold when it was served and undersalted and quite al dente. The not sandwich was good. I probably wouldn't come here again but if I were I would have wine and apps or the not sandwich.I believe it to be "authentic" southern Italian food so ymmv

Cute small cozy Italian restaurant. Would recommend making a reservation since the place is so small. They owners were nice and the food tasted fresh + high quality.My favorite was the orecchiette cime di rape! So yummy! Idk why but the cavolo nero was amazing, it's such a simple salad but so tasty.Definitely can't wait to come back!

I came here for a mom's night out with a friend. The food is Pugliese and I gather they are under new ownership. Our appetizers were vegetable-heavy (rapette and cavolifiori) and everything was fresh and not overcooked. The pasta dishes were delicious. The server kindly helped me bumble through the wine list. We were seated next to the kitchen door which was a bit unpleasant, but somebody has to be and staff did their best to make us comfortable and minimize disruptions.

I liked the vibe, food and service. I really love Italian food and was quite excited to come here and try their dishes. The interior is very intimate and the staff are quite welcoming and casual which I really like. The dishes themselves taste well done, never too savory or overpowering. Really lets the ingredients lead the experience.I came with a group of 9 and we all ordered separate dishes, none of us really experienced any service hiccups or long spans of time waiting for dishes.I shared a diavola pizza and it was delicious, very savory and a tad spicy. I also got the Orecchiette pasta and it was fresh and light. With chili flakes and a bit of olive oil it's perfect.Additionally the table shared 2 orders of bread that were delicious, I'm a fan of a crispy bread and they did a great job with that and the olive oil dip. I just wish they didn't charge for the bread.While I really liked all aspects of this place, nothing particularly stood out as spectacular. For my next visits I will be looking for that factor

Don't get me wrong, the pasta is delicious but it's kiddie sized. I don't expect Texas sized portions, but I literally put my "dinner" in a tupperware for a snack for later.
