Hidden gem in Soma. The crowd differs day to day and the drinks may take an extra 10 mins but its worth it.
Jessica TroccoliOctober 20, 2018
Super cool place. Great drinks, fun bartenders and delicious sushi from the place upstairs. You can sit at the bar to eat.

John Colin's is opening their bar up from noon till 2am with live music by Conscious Souls, Outlaws & Preachers, DJ Kash and DJ Rascue. Enjoy $2 Tigers, $4 Murphy's and free cover before 10pm. Read more

If you want a post work drink with a post work crowd this is the place. Beware the sloped bar or you'll lose a drink.

Solid cocktails and usually less crowded then other bars in FiDi, plus you can get sushi.

Nice happy hour crowd and vibe. The John Colins is a refreshing, light whiskey cocktail. Definitely try one.
Auburn SantoJune 20, 2015
Long bar with house cocktails if you're looking to chill. Side room with DJ if you're looking to turn up. Win-win.

One of my favorite bars in SF. Usually good music on Fridays. Need a better bathroom line.

I'm not feeling the bottle service. ..it's clearly not worth it. I get it was a cheaper in Atlanta. They have lost their minds

Checked out NeoSoul Mondays. Pretty decent music, but they need to draw a bigger crowd somehow.
Matthew AmadeaJune 3, 2019
Drinks are overpriced, sketchy bartenders, this place isn't what it used to be.
Noelis SotoJuly 26, 2019
There are places to sit and you can order sushi, there’s a photo booth... the drinks are watered down and awful. Even the beer tastes watered down.. why?!?

Beat mojito in the city. Ask for a bloody mary and they may, justifiably, laugh at you.
