NanaMay 25, 2013Tell them what you like and they'll make you drink of your choice. Cucumber gimlet sooo refreshing and whiskey snap is just how it sounds like snap!
MyCityWayMay 2, 2012This place is great for a mix of financial district suits and polo wearing techies. The staff know how to make countless drinks plus they will make you something from scratch if you ask nice!
Tony XerriNovember 25, 2021Fantastic whiskey bar with great beer. Looks like a dive but the sophistication level is extremely high. Will definitely come back here.
JennNovember 19, 2011Great bartenders, great drinks, and super fun vibe! Can get a little crowded so get there early if you can!! It''s pricey, $30 for a shot of scotch - 18 year I think, but otherwise good ambiance.
Waaay too loud. What's up@with most of the bars in SF? They pump up music all the time. Still looking for a real chill and intimate setting, like Angel's Share in NYC.
Ray HartjenApril 3, 2015Great SoMA location for that happy hour drink. Not the best cocktail, so stick with the beer, straight on rocks, and conversation.
jenny rockDecember 14, 2016Good cocktails, but no cocktail menu. Order off menu, name some cocktails you like and they'll pick something good.- Best happy hour, amazing cocktails, ridiculous whiskey selection! How can you not fall in love?
- Great happy hour spot. Good selection of beers and stuff cocktails. Try the old fashioned.
Kevin BurgJuly 27, 2014There's a lot of whiskey here. Ask the friendly bartenders about all the whiskey.
Jinnie LMarch 5, 2015I like the atmosphere, fun place ;) I had basil gimlet (refreshing) & gin dominatrix (yummy)
Jennifer TharpJuly 12, 2012Mark (bald guy with glasses) is easily the best bartender in the city. Tell him what you like and he'll make you a new variant that will blow. Your. Mind.
Let the bartenders pick your drink, just naming a spirit and a flavor profile; it'll end up great.
Jymmi JamesSeptember 18, 2018Great deals on wine and fancy stuff considering how fancy this place is.
Melissa DagdaganOctober 20, 2014I come here for the whiskey, basil gimlet, and a good time with friends.
Claire LeeDecember 13, 2014Ask for Marc to make you a special cocktail - he practices art with liquor
Gina LeungNovember 16, 2011Sometimes the piano player here will be amazing. Tonight he's already played Lady GaGa and Kanye West on the keyboard.
Shirley LiuAugust 19, 2012Blueberry gimlet is great , or ask the bartender to concoct something for you!
Joey CombsApril 25, 2015Don't come here during HH, it's way too crowded. That being said, they make a great whiskey sour. Order one.
c0uPJanuary 17, 2015Decent alcohol selection. Unfortunately, it looks like a rundown, ripoff version of House of Shields. Cracked walls, bad acoustics, and that's with a half-empty bar.
the bartenders here actually earn the title of 'mixologist'. they work some serious magic.
The piano player is great! He plays modern hits all night ... From depeche mode to weezer :)
Brandyy SkyeFebruary 18, 2012thank you for the super yummy mojito tattoo sleeved sexy bartender guy :)
Tommy PayneFebruary 18, 2011Ask the bartender to make you his fav concoction. He's a wizard mixologist- Have the St Peter's cream stout! A full English pint of dark beer heaven :)
