Food Review: Gold Mirror Family Italian Restaurant, San Francisco, CA

This Italian restaurant has been around since 1969, and I wonder why it has taken me so long to eat here?!  It is located at 800 Taraval Street, San Francisco, CA.  I went here for lunch at the recommendation of a friend.  I knew exactly what I wanted to try: the lasagna!  It is a bit pricey for lunch and dinner ($14.50 and $17) respectively, but totally worth it!  The decor reflects the aforementioned, looking more like the interior from Hogwart's in Harry Potter.  It is dimly lit--so don't take a date here that you don't want to talk to!!  There is a bar and a small television in the corner.  However, this is not the focal point of the restaurant.  All the servers are dressed in a black tie fashion.  The bread is warm and toasted, a big plus in my book.  There is nothing worse than cold bread, no matter how fancy the bread.

When the lasagna appeared on the table, I was thinking, "This is the most flat lasagna that I have ever seen?  Is there even any meat and cheese in it?"  The answer is Oh yeah!  The cheese and meat melts in your mouth and although it looks flat, it is quite filling.  As you can see, we scarfed it up!
