Imagine-se entrando em um espaço que combina a autenticidade da culinária italiana com uma atmosfera moderna e acolhedora, no coração de San Francisco. O Heroic Italian é mais do que um restaurante; é um convite para uma viagem sensorial, onde cada prato conta uma história de tradição e inovação.

Entre as especialidades que conquistam os paladares mais exigentes, destacam-se a "Lasagna alla Heroic" — uma lasanha artesanal, repleta de camadas de queijo derretido e molho rico, e o "Risotto di Mare", um risoto cremoso com frutos do mar frescos, que captura a essência do litoral italiano com cada colherada.

O Heroic Italian oferece uma experiência de jantar que vai além do convencional, com uma decoração que remete às tradicionais trattorias italianas, e uma equipe apaixonada pela cultura e culinária do país.

The food was very good. Excellent gluten-free bread. It seemed expensive for the size of the sandwich. I was expecting something 1.5-2 times larger given the price. We ate outside in one of the sidewalk booths. It was a bit cold and breezy, not sure if you can eat inside in the wine bar or not, so might want to watch the weather.

Run don't walk to get one of these sandwiches - they're incredible. Bread is perfect. Price is expensive but you definitely get what you pay for! Glass of good wine from the wine shop in the same building doesn't hurt either

Sandwiches: 5/5
Service: 5/5
Ambiance: 4/5
Overall: You will be saying OMG when you eat the OMG!

The extended review...

Sandwich:

OMG - 5/5 - The flavor on this was awesome.  The bread was nice and fresh and the meats with the spreads made for a nice flavor combination.  The pricing on the menu could be a little bit high compared to other sandwich places I've been to but the flavor was undeniably awesome.

Service: 5/5 - David, the owner, was super friendly and helpful in explaining all of the sandwich.  His passion resonated when he was describing the menu.  You could tell he was very proud of the quality he was providing.

Ambiance: 4/5 - So there are a few tables outside to enjoy.  The only issue is that it's hard to see that there is a sandwich shop sitting in the middle of a wine shop.  There was some marketing outside on the sidewalk but I think it wasn't enough to take advantage of foot traffic.

Was hesitant to try the very well reviewed $17 OMG sandwich due to its exorbitant price. But it is aptly named, OMG I spent $17($21+with tip) on this sandwich. This is roughly six inches with very sparse amount of meat or ingredients listed on the menu. The bread is pretty good but not anything to rave about. This is half a sandwich not a full sandwich.

While I love a great sandwich, great sandwiches are far and few in-between.  Heroic Italian is a place where you can find a great sandwich.  I tried the signature "OMG" and it did not disappoint.  The real hero of the sandwich is the bread.   It's light, airy and crispy so you don't feel bloated with carbs.  But the bread's real super-power is letting the flavors of the imported Italian meats and assorted toppings shine through.  I had mine spicy which wasn't really hot but definitely added a touch of flavorful heat.  I'll be going back to try their other sandwiches as well as another aptly named, "OMG."
