Little Original Joe’s
WINNER

Centered around pizza, pasta, and parmigiana, Little Original Joe’s is a vibrant neighborhood restaurant, bringing Italian American comfort food and contemporary charm to San Francisco’s Marina District. Rooted in the same warmth and convivial spirit of the Original Joe’s brand, the full-service restaurant blends familiar flavors with a lighter, more modern sensibility. The space is anchored by a lively full bar, robust pizza program, and elevated menu with new house favorites, offering a thoughtful variety of crave-worthy dishes with something for everyone. Created by third-generation sibling co-owners John and Elena Duggan, the restaurant reimagines the nearly 90-year-old Original Joe’s story for a new generation, honoring tradition while embracing a more contemporary spirit. Those looking to enjoy their favorite Little Original Joe’s dishes at home can also visit the West Portal location, which serves take-out offerings like signature pizzas, pasta, and classic Italian dishes alongside specialty retail market items.
