- Mike WinstonJune 18, 2015A solid place for a Gold Rush themed, steampunk date night in the Financial District. Good cocktails and tasty Cal-Ital. Don't miss the Bone Marrow & Escargot and read more on WinstonWanders below. Read more
- LaurenNovember 11, 2013POUTINE. $12, crispy french fries smothered in melted cheese curds smothered in oxtail meat gravy made from the gods. Hands down the best poutine I've had in the city of San Francisco.
Katherine Kennedy AllenMarch 11, 2014Great atmosphere, very relaxing! The house made lemonade hits the spot along with one of the sandwiches! Ask for a table upstairs!
ShinaAugust 8, 2019Really lovely during happy hour! Good for groups if you book ahead of time. They have a super cute upstairs loft that’s great for a sit down dinner. Small, cozy and great service.
Tommy GaetaJune 7, 2013Come in for the meticulously made cocktails, stay for the confused mish-mash of pre-prohibition/nautical/industrial/maritime/patriotic/steam punk decor
DrewskiMarch 9, 2017Split the chicken sandwich and tri-tip sandwich and thought both were delicious. Would definitely go back and try other things.
Paul de HalléDecember 14, 2016Just had their mushroom tagliatelle for lunch... fantastic and goes really well with the recommended Bordeaux Blanc wine pairing.
Megan AllisonNovember 18, 2017Pretty decent menu in a really cozy space. Something for everyone. open late.
Robert BelnapJanuary 19, 2016Great place for a business lunch, romantic dinner or just happy hour. Modern feel and energetic ambiance.
Nicholas MichaudAugust 9, 2015Steak frites were delicious! Only thing though: there was way too many fries compared to the steaks he steak portion was small while the fries were practically taking up my whole plate.
Loren Monroe-TriceJanuary 25, 2012Oysters fresh. Split the crab melt with a friend, enough for two for a lite lunch. Full of crab, just a touch of cheese & mayo. Would order again. Service slow, be warned at lunchtime.
Priya SaiprasadNovember 7, 2012Dimly lit and old fashioned-trendy spot for some delicious cocktails. The appetizers are all great to pair with the cocktails.
Erin GraffiusJanuary 10, 2012Definitely still working out the kinks. If you just want drinks you are highly discouraged/banned from sitting at a bar top. They are saving them for diners apparently and are adamant about it
CJJuly 1, 2017Good environment. Except the main courses for lunch, their happy hour is also recommended
Great (relatively) new business lunch place in FiDi/Union Sq area.
EmilyOctober 16, 2015Fills up fast for lunch and happy hour. Charcuterie and fromage plate is fantastic.

Elizabeth BursteinMarch 19, 2017Citrus trade drink is ok. Ordered it light on alcohol tastes sort of like juice.
