Cafe Arrivederci was founded in 1996 by Carlo Scatena. Carlo started his career in the restaurant industry at North Beach, first as a busboy, later became a waiter, then a restaurant owner. After a few years, Carlo opened his first restaurant in San Francisco- Marcello Restaurant. His success as Marcello’s restaurant owner helped him to expand and open other restaurants across the Bay Area.
Carlo Opened 7 Restaurants
Carlo opened 7 restaurants during his career. Restaurants such as La Toscana, Luca, Cafe Italia, Cafe Arrivederci, Aurora Sausalito and Aurora Novato were created by Carlo. Carlo passed in 2019 and his wife, Aurora Scatena, was leading the operations of Aurora Novato since then until 2021.

What our guests are saying
Went to this restaurant at lunch for the first time under new management with my husband. We both loved the food. We were sharing Pappardelle Con Funghi (Wide ribbon pasta, roasted mixed mushrooms, white wine, Calabrian chilies, arugula, pecorino) and Melanzane Alla Parmigiana (Breaded eggplant, mozzarella, parmigiana, marinara) and they were delicious! The restaurant had a good vibe. The staff was nice and friendly. We’ll be back again!

I love this restaurant! Great food and wonderful service. I hosted an event there recently on their outdoor patio, and all the staff were so incredibly helpful and made things run so smoothly! Julia, the event coordinator for the restaurant, is a dream to work with! She was on top of every detail, super responsive during the months long planning process, and made the day very special. I will absolutely hosts more events at Arrivederci!
