Barberio Osteria is an Italian restaurant in the Mission from the Altovino team, built around a wood-fired approach to fish. The kitchen cooks over oak coals, with options that include a crispy mackerel served with herbs, onions, salsa verde, and a whole roasted lemon. The rest of the menu runs through Italian staples like an 'nduja spread and triangoli finished in brown butter.
The room is moody and candle-lit, suited to a date night, and the drink program is extensive, with a run of low-ABV cocktails that includes the Gregorio Sour, made with white vermouth, lemon, egg white, and red wine.
