Join JBF Greens at Via Aurelia, the latest fine-dining spot from the creators of Che Fico, chef David Nayfeld and partner Matt Brewer.

Named after the historic road that traced Italy’s western coast to Rome, Via Aurelia is a love letter to Tuscany. The restaurant carries that legacy to San Francisco, honoring tradition while embracing the city’s unique rhythm and the region’s iconic ingredients and dishes.

For this occasion, Bay Area native chef Nayfeld will create a three-course menu that honors Tuscan cuisine, showcasing pristine seafood, housemade pastas, and produce-driven creations.
