Society insiders Vintage 415, owners of the Marina's popular Mamacita among others, and Gian-Paolo Veronese are behind this Jackson Square restaurant, bar and social club. Focused on elegant, Barbary Coast-style excess and featuring two full bars, Taverna Aventine's lunch and dinner menu of Cal-Italian bites (the space is named for Rome's Aventine district) may be eclipsed by indulgent details such as the private basement "parlor" of personal liquor lockers for members. Décor juxtaposes Gold Rush-era San Francisco (antique maps and photos, maritime elements---parts of the actual space date back 150 years) with Vintage 415's cutting-edge, modern energy.
