Chronicle Where Che Fico stepped into the national spotlight for modern Cal-Italian food, Via Aurelia sees chef David Nayfeld devoted to Tuscan cuisine. The high-end restaurant anchors new waterfront development Mission Rock, pairing meticulous design — limewashed walls, vaulted ceilings, semi-private alcove booths — with attentive, almost anticipatory hospitality. The cooking is polished, from airy sformato to hand-rolled pici and beautifully executed steaks. Ironically for a Tuscan restaurant, the bread service is one of the fine”

“Via Aurelia is chef David Nayfeld’s latest restaurant, [opening in 2025 and exploring Tuscan cuisine](/restaurant-news/208360/san-francisco-restaurant-opening-via-aurelia). Via Aurelia skews more upscale than its sister restaurant Che Fico, but diners choose between an a la carte menu or a five-course dinner with optional pairing. Whatever you do, try out the sformato, a custard dish that isn’t often seen in the city, and the tortelli mugellani is one of the standouts from the pasta menu. If you’re looking to impress, the steak here is excellent, but it will cost a pretty penny (like, a lot of them). * [Book a table](https://reservations.safegraph.com/reserve/250867?utm_source=safegraph&utm_”

“Via Aurelia is the latest restaurant from chef David Nayfeld, opening across the water from Oracle Park in Mission Rock. [The Tuscan restaurant delves into fine dining territory for Nayfeld](/restaurant-news/208360/san-francisco-restaurant-opening-via-aurelia), and with those high-end dishes comes plenty of space for private dining. The Florentina room can fit up to 70 people seated, or 80 people standing, or it can be broken up into smaller, rentable rooms fitting 30 or 40 people seated, depending on what you pick.

Local authority“**Open for:**Dinner **Price range:** $$$ Chef David Nayfeld’s tribute to Tuscan cuisine [opened in September 2025](https://sf.eater.com/restaurant-news/208360/san-francisco-restaurant-opening-via-aurelia) with a bang, debuting in an all-new buildout with beautiful decor and an equally-beautiful view of Oracle Park and the waterfront. Beyond those points, however, is a restaurant that boasts a selection of Tuscan dishes that are perhaps lesser-seen in Bay Area restaurants. Think a spin on sformato, informed by seasonal produce, house-made pastas like tortelli Mugellani, and fennel seed-crusted lamb. Diners can order a la carte or take on the five-course tasting menu that leads diners through ”
