Walking into the second floor dining room of NoPa’s newly-opened Cal-Ital destination, diners can’t help but think to themselves how cool the design is. They’ll tell themselves, “Wow, what a formidable pizza oven.” Or, “My goodness, that is one long, never-ending communal table.”
Perhaps, they’ll even ask themselves, “When was the last time I saw a skylight in a San Francisco restaurant?” However, the most likely initial comment will undoubtedly be “What a fig” because of the ever-photogenic fig tree-printed wallpaper that greets everyone entering Che Fico (for the record, it’s pronounced like Kay fee-koh).
