Desserts at Emporio Rulli Gran Caffe, San Francisco, CA

Saturday
06.27.2009

CJ and I headed over to the Marina on Chestnut Street to get some dessert after out outing to the beach...we were trying to decide where to go for dessert and ended up at Emporio Rulli Gran Caffe. I was thouroughly disappointed.

The service was utterly horrible: the waiter was extremely rude and did not want to tell me what the various cake slices of the day were why I asked him to clarify the menu. We did not have napkins and had to ask the hostess to get napkins becuase the waiter never came by. We started eating out desserts and were half-way finished before we even got napkins.

The tiramisu was underwhelming - I took a bite of Christina's. I had a very dry and bland cake of the day. It was chocolate cake with whipped cream and berries. It was so very disappointing.I was genuinely very unhappy with the experience.

Needless to say, the ambience was nice but the desserts were underwhleming as well as the service - but at least the company was good.
