    Service is good and staff is professional yet each has their own personality and is not robotic. Drinks are wonderful, I've been many times and have not tried a drink I didn't like. Ambiance is S-tier, acoustics are meant for audiophiles, yet drinks are meant for cocktail aficionados. This place is best of both worlds, but there is often a waiting list. Important to remember that good things come to those who wait :)

    Loved the vibe as soon I stepped in! It gave me the vibes I get a good lounge bar in NOLA. We sat at the bar. The drinks are so good and strong. They had some really unique cocktails on their menu. The bartenders were extremely attentive and made the cocktails pretty quickly, even though they were busy .Lately, I've been trying cocktails that I wouldn't normally try! Most of what I ordered came looking like a gentleman's drink, LOL! Please add this to your list if you go to San Francisco!

    The vibes in this bar are truly immaculate. i love the concept of the listening bar and it's so peaceful in this space. I highly recommend coming during a weekday as opposed to the weekend. During the weekend, it's super crowded/loud which takes away from the whole experience. Weekday after work is the perfect time to go and enjoy the sound system. The day I went they had a pianist for a bit which was so lovely Reasons I'm taking a star away - i ordered from the HH menu but realized the next day that they charged me the normal price which was very disappointing! Also on the HH menu, the have their only food item, "pretzel twists" which my friends and i assumed would be lil baked pretzels - unfortunately they were just very overpriced basic pretzels you can grab from the corner store - I definitely recommend skipping that lol

    Let me say I had no idea this place existed until someone took me on a date here. It's intimate, the music was immaculate, and the drinks are really tasty. The bartenders are legit mixologists which I really appreciate and so do my tastebuds. The bartenders were very attentive and made sure we had water whenever our glass was almost empty. I would highly recommend this place for a night cap.
