Tasting TableSeptember 22, 2014
Chef 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

The oversized fire pit at this swanky bar in the Hotel Zelos will keep you warm as you sample a flight of bourbon. It’s no wonder this is one of the city’s best rooftop bars. Read more

This spot is perfect for birthdays, after-work cocktails, or just an easy refuge from the chaos of Union Square. A terrific and lengthy cocktail list is complemented by ultra classy bar bites. 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!

The 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 🤤

For 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.

This Black Friday, shake off your turkey coma and stop by for drink specials and $3 snacks. Dirty Habit has the booze you need to get through Black Friday unscathed. Read more

A 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!

Sit 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, 2014
Great 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, 2015
Lovely decor, nice outdoor patio, great cocktails. And oh, they have a glass wall of whiskeys and bourbons.
Tagel Shaked ZingerAugust 12, 2016
Stylish place, good atmosphere, a lot of cocktails to choose from. The challa and the grilled corn are great!
Elias BizJune 23, 2018
Trendy. Good place to impress. Try the Gold Rush: Bourbon whiskey, lemon, honey.

Pricey but great cocktails and food, good spot for corporate events and drinks

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, 2014
Rooftop patio. Yummy cocktails and small plates. Order the strawberry-filled churros for dessert and thank me later.
David RApril 1, 2017
Great 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.
Katie MuiAugust 18, 2015
They have a pretty cool outside patio with heat lamps. Good for big groups.
Jonathan StraussMay 14, 2014
Food 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.

Gorgeous outdoor seating! Make reservations! Super popular spot in union square

You’ll get a workout moving the chairs at the bar while you receive excellent service from the bartenders.

Head 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

There's a patio and inside it's cozy and dark like Local Edition.
Jennifer YipSeptember 16, 2014
on 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, 2018
Get the date in india punch bowl and hang out in the fancy patio with friends. The fries were good too.
Sabina B.July 26, 2014
Get the barrel aged old fashioned. Seriously the tastiest in the game 👉 it will NEVER disappoint.

Nice place to have a drink before going out, really good cocktails!

Buns are just ok - little gamey with the lamb vs pork belly & bun is so so. Go for the mezcal drinks. Outdoor area is A++

Hard to beat spirits list. Ask for the iPad.

Low-key spot for a good drink right off Market.
Bre LambertMay 15, 2014
Skip 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.

The charcuterie plate is a steal!
