Coming to a two-story building at 214 California Street, the eatery will take over the former home of Homage — Sommelier Chef Dave Kurtz’s cafe and bottle shop that closed in March 2020 — near notable establishments such as Pabu Izakaya, Perbacco, and Tadich Grill.

What Now San Francisco reached out to the eatery’s owner, Don Carmignani, to inquire about the concept, but he could not provide further information before publication.

Nevertheless, a recent article by the San Francisco Business Times offers additional insight.

According to the report, the California Street property is owned by the Carmignani family and houses another of their ventures, 2ONE2 California Dispensary — a cannabis dispensary that carries a “selection of quality flower, potent concentrates, convenient vapes, tasty edibles, and more.”

An opening date and menu have not yet been announced. Stay tuned for updates.
