Those are the two of the r elements I look for when sourcing a space to book for my events. Tarocco is such a beautiful space and the owner, Sequoia, and her team are incredibly easy to work with. From a photography and videography standpoint, the natural light is absolutely perfect. Communication prior, during and after our events were flawless and the food… I’ve had 2 events here and every time the food was both delicious to eat and look at. Parking is ample and the space is easy to find. I honestly can’t say enough about this space. The opportunities to make the interior your own is endless thanks to the minimalist decor. Tarocco is easily one of my top 5 places to book in the Bay Area and I continue to refer anyone here without hesitation.
