15 Romolo, the cocktail bar tucked into an alley off Broadway in North Beach, is now aiming to reopen in mid-November, according to a report published Oct. 27. The SF Standard had listed it among October's most anticipated openings, calling it the return of a legendary cocktail bar.
Background
The bar closed in August 2024 for renovation work. Jon and Kelly Anne Gasparini have owned it since 1998.
Why the delay
The latest report attributes the timeline to infrastructure work on the century-old building. No firm date has been announced.
What to watch
Follow the bar's own channels for a confirmed date. Until then, treat mid-November as a target, not a promise.
