MacKenzie Chung Fegan, a critic for the San Francisco Chronicle, has recently reviewed Tosca Cafe, a 105-year-old establishment, highlighting several great lines in her critique. In her review, Fegan notes that while Tosca Cafe remains a popular bar, its culinary reputation has declined. She describes the kitchen's performance as 'wildly uneven' and the dining room as excessively loud on weekends, making it difficult for patrons to communicate without reading lips. Despite these criticisms, Tosca Cafe continues to be a favored destination for large parties, particularly for 'hot girls' looking to start their night with a 'base coat of pasta.' Fegan's review marks a significant shift from previous years when Tosca Cafe was her top choice for dining.

Tosca’s moment as a culinary player was a short one, a blip in its 105-year history. But it remains a great bar, writes critic MacKenzie Chung Fegan. https://t.co/qj6ABQjpsz
