Tasting TableSeptember 22, 2014Chef David Bazirgan really brings the goods with an extensive food menu covering the gamut from steamed lamb belly buns and crazy-addictive chicken wings to béarnaise-topped aged rib eye. Read more
Expensive but worth it if you can sit on the patio on a nice summer day. Bring your corporate events here for a sure good time. Make reservations if you can -- space fills quickly!
Connie ChiuJune 22, 2018The bone marrow and lamb mint pea bamboo risotto are amazing. The bone marrow was huge, deep, and fatty, topped with this sweet short rib that was generous. Drool worthy 🤤
David NelsonMay 10, 2015For something new and amazing, ask the sommelier (and proprietor) for 'unusual wines'. He lives for these and is proud to help others discover something not the norm.
herm pugayNovember 3, 2014A hidden gem only around the corner from where I work. It can get crowded for happy hour. You feel like you are in a lounge in NYC. There's also an outdoor patio!
Will BertelsenMay 6, 2014Sit outside on the patio and order the Barrel Aged Island Old Fashioned. It's a savory rum cocktail that's very well balanced. This place is still definitely a hotel bar though.
Hanoi MorilloAugust 22, 2014Great patio, drinks and food. The lamb buns and the tomato salad are my favorites. For drinks, the honey bee, banana daikiri and the old fashioned.
Sherry LiApril 26, 2015Lovely decor, nice outdoor patio, great cocktails. And oh, they have a glass wall of whiskeys and bourbons.
Tagel Shaked ZingerAugust 12, 2016Stylish place, good atmosphere, a lot of cocktails to choose from. The challa and the grilled corn are great!
Elias BizJune 23, 2018Trendy. Good place to impress. Try the Gold Rush: Bourbon whiskey, lemon, honey.
The Old Fashioned relies on a nontraditional Old Fashioned spirit (Banks 5 Island Rum), swirled with velvet Falernum, allspice dram and angostura bitters.
Frederique DSeptember 14, 2014Rooftop patio. Yummy cocktails and small plates. Order the strawberry-filled churros for dessert and thank me later.
David RApril 1, 2017Great outdoor patio (but no view). Upscale bar with prices to match. Good for dinner or after work drinks.
Have a cold-pressed Coffee Break cocktail with a bread pudding dessert all to yourself.
Jonathan StraussMay 14, 2014Food and drink are solid, but ambiance and service feel like a second rate hotel bar. Definitely a downgrade IMHO from the classic that was the Fifth Floor Bar.
Go Find AliceMay 23, 2017Gorgeous outdoor seating! Make reservations! Super popular spot in union square- jcIISeptember 24, 2022You’ll get a workout moving the chairs at the bar while you receive excellent service from the bartenders.
Staff PicksNovember 15, 2014Head to Dirty Habit for a date tonight. The halibut tiradito with passion fruit, ginger, and plantain is one of the best meals in SF. Read more
Jennifer YipSeptember 16, 2014on the 5th floor of the Paloma's hotel, this feels like a wannabe New York rooftop bar. skip the food but try the drinks!
Pavan KulkarniApril 22, 2018Get the date in india punch bowl and hang out in the fancy patio with friends. The fries were good too.
Sabina B.July 26, 2014Get the barrel aged old fashioned. Seriously the tastiest in the game 👉 it will NEVER disappoint.
Chuck ReynoldsMay 4, 2014Great roof deck, blocked in so wind isn't a problem. Staff was personable & attentive. will be back.
Klaus BusseFebruary 1, 2015Inside looks great! Outdoor patio is in a courtyard with no view. The burger is AMAZING!!
Marcela SaponeSeptember 5, 2016Buns are just ok - little gamey with the lamb vs pork belly & bun is so so. Go for the mezcal drinks. Outdoor area is A++
Keep it classy with a little trashy and order the off the menu Red Bull and Sherry.
Bre LambertMay 15, 2014Skip this one! Sexy space w/ unique cocktails, but drinks are overpriced & staff is arrogant & disrespectful. Not worth it compared to all the other options in the city. Head to Bluestem instead.
