Italian classics go modern at new Great Gold restaurant in San Francisco - The Mercury News

The team behind San Francisco’s successful Flour + Water, Trick Dog and Salumeria restaurants is launching a new Italian concept this Friday in their former Foxsister space in the Mission district.

Called Great Gold, it’s being billed as a “Modern American Italian Kitchen,” with partner/co-owner David Steele envisioning this as a marriage of California ingredients and sensibilities and classic Italian-American comfort food recipes.

“Great Gold will be our take on a classic Italian American ‘red sauce’ joint but a huge difference will be our focus on local, seasonal ingredients and sourcing these ingredients as sustainably as possible,” he said in a statement. They will also embrace carbon-neutral farming efforts in partnership with the nonprofit Zero Food Print organization.

On chef/partner Brandon Kirksey’s inaugural menu, look for house-made pasta, meatballs and sausage in long-simmered sauces, chopped salads, cioppino — and plenty of family inspiration from Steele’s and Kirksey’s grandmothers. Both entrees and family-style dinners will be offered, and a Sunday lasagna feed is in the works.

Details: 3161 24th St., San Francisco. The website and Facebook pages are under construction; in the meantime, here is the Flour + Water site.
