Heck no! San Francisco is such a melting pot, every one of our neighborhoods is a little bit of a reflection of that. It wouldn't be San Francisco if North Beach didn't include a great Hunan place, super tapas, authentic Indian cuisine, and a taqueria or two amidst all the traditional Italian restaurants. Don't worry about ethnic labeling, just relax and enjoy it all!

Absolutely not! The restaurant deserve a choice since it will also have to work financially. A Chinese restaurant or a western restaurant in an Italian neighborhood might rise up some interest in the surrounding community as something new and enjoyable. I would recommend the restaurant to have at least some Italian dishes for its picky and homesick costumers though.

not really, because most likely if its a new restaurant, then an italian restaurant may already be there. I live in the black community and we have pizza shops, china buffets, olive garden, rib shacks, steak houses, italian eatery, so its better to diversify then just to stick to one thing. also its better to have differences because its most likely the food is also being served at home so you need something different or dinner gets boring.

It seems unnecessary for it to serve Italian food. I'm pretty sure everyone in the neighborhood can cook Italian food themselves.

A restaurant can serve any type of food they want....but they would probably do better to serve the food that those in the neighborhood would be more likely to eat.

If the location attracts Tourists then stick to the theme, but if it caters to a local crowd then go against the grain and offer something different. People don't like going to a restaurant to buy what they can cook at home.

no, if it stays in business it should serve whatever it likes. might be a good idea to put some Italian items on the menu just in case.

No, I'm sure Italians have more adventurous taste than just Italian day in, day out

Not unless it is in Italy. Then they would have no choice all the food would be Italian no matter where it is fashioned from.

Of course not silly! A Japanese friend of mine goes to Chinese restaurants IN JAPAN.
Im sure those who live in Italian neighborhoods would enjoy other types of foods for a change. Duh
