Morella proudly serves some of the most popular dishes in Argentine and Italian cultures on our little corner of Chestnut and Fillmore streets in the Marina/Cow Hollow district in San Francisco.
Our name, Morella, is a derivative of the word Morel, the earthy, nutty, and rare mushroom that is prized by chefs and restaurant connoisseurs, and is featured selectively in our menu who cousins make appearances in our vibrant decor.
Morella celebrates the gastronomic influences that immigrants from European countries, particularly Spain and Italy, had on Argentinian cuisine in the decades following the mass migrations at the turn of the 20th century. Morella features traditional empanadas, wood-smoked meats, pastas and internationally inspired drinks — all meant to be enjoyed in a bright convivial space. We aim to be your favorite stop for the cuisine of either culture if you visit the Marina District in SF.
