Alice MApril 19, 2016Massive beer list, charming servers, & tasty, quick food (the huge kale & bacon salad is only missing dates). Perfectly cozy for a date, but only come with a big group if you have time to wait.
Mike WinstonDecember 2, 2014Perfect for a quiet date night, this cozy restaurant sports an epic wine & beer list along with some incredible comfort food. Don't miss FA’s Chicken Pot Pie and read about it on WinstonWanders below! Read more
Alex GronbachSeptember 21, 2018Good food, good drinks, but it was very crowded & too pricey. Many people use this as a pre-game/meetup before shows at the Fillmore, which means you should avoid going here immediately before a show!
Amritha PrasadMarch 7, 2013I don't know what's going on with those draft wines, but I was hammered after 2 glasses and my head feels like it might never stop pounding. Super tasty wines though and quite cozy.
Tim SylvesterOctober 25, 2014Great beer list, wines on tap and a fantastic vibe. Perfect first date space. Light food in the flatbreads and hearty chicken pot pie. Always a good time and the staff is great. Highly recommended
Ashley RoseApril 15, 2018Enjoy your beer and a half (20oz pour) and a flat bread before a concert. On nights without a show, expect a very quiet ambience.
Ruby AnayaDecember 9, 2013Awesome and unique beer selection and great draft wines. The sliders are incredible! The salads are REALLY big - think of "The Big Salad" from Seinfeld - but they are all delicious & great to share.
SFGateMay 6, 2015Fat Angel doesn't bill itself as a wine bar—it also has a comprehensive beer list and robust food menu for full dinner dining. But with wines on draft and an impressive cheese plate, it definitely is.
Ari FriedlandJuly 16, 2012the most outstanding chicken pot pie i've ever had. anywhere. also, the truffle oil mac n' cheese was dyn-o-mite! also, the endive salad, mushroom & truffle oil flatbread and duck salami were awesome.
Very cozy ambience with great list of beers and wines. There bar food was ok but loved the pecan cheesecake
Olivia TamJuly 16, 2012Best chicken pot pie Ive ever had in my life - full of flavor, not excessively creamy/starchy, lots of buttery flaky crust. Everything else was fantastic too!! The endive salad also was a standout
Johnnie SkywalkingMay 31, 2015Draft wine are great. Ask for tasting and choose your favorite. Mine was Cabernet Franc.
AJ LampronAugust 31, 2017Go for the Spicy mac and cheese paired with the Epic IPA. Stay for the atmosphere and friendly/knowledgeable service!
Audrey TolbertNovember 9, 2014Unique and great beer selection, albeit not that extensive. Friendly bartenders too! Great place for a quiet drink and conversation.
Tiff TingSeptember 2, 2012Try the Wild Mushroom & White Truffle Oil With Pecorino Flatbread - Extremely thin crust, chunky mushrooms, and awesome truffle flavor: what more could you ask (except for more)?
Peter ParkMarch 9, 2017Good date spot. Come during weekdays--it's not too crowded and you can actually have enjoyable time.
The trout salad is a life-changer. Check out the chalkboard for featured beers. Usually the best value here, too. Not good for big groups. Expect a wait if you have more than two.
Brian SperdutoMay 28, 2015Grab a cheese plate with one of the beers off the bottle list, and then dessert, cheese cake or bread pudding.
Surprisingly excellent salad choices, phenomenal beer and wine list. Don't miss the pot pie.
Delicious flatbread and other small plates, enormous rare beer list, cozy friendly place... So basically heaven?
Beer 47June 24, 2012The beer on tap is excellent but check out the bottle list for a large collection of reasonably priced bottles, including an extensive selection of sour beers.
One of SF's more remarkable gastropubs. Fantastic food and craft beers - and love the girls behind the bar!
Steve FaddenMarch 9, 2013Try the Roasted Red Grape, Walnut, Prosciutto, And Gorgonzola Flatbread - Delicious flatbread! Goes well with a Coronado Brewing Islander IPA!
Andy JonesOctober 15, 2017Nice place .. wine and bear to drink buuuuut .... 😋. A lot of bears rear bears with beauty taste
Get the chicken pot pie and ask for waiter/waitress suggestion on the best cheese on menu and best draft beer
Sliders are amazing. You'll never have sliders like them. Chicken pot pie is also incredible. My favorite spot in SF. Enjoy
Julia Khusainova ✨September 2, 2018They have amazing wine list and healthy food options that are all tasty.- Tiff TingSeptember 2, 2012Try the Mac 'N' Cheese - Substantial breadcrumbs cover the gooey Gruyere, aged cheddar, and Parmesan while the macaroni pasta clings to every last drop.
Emily KaneOctober 13, 2015They open at 4pm, but just for wine, the full food menu isn't available until 5, so plan your mac and cheese outing accordingly.
7x7 MagazineOctober 29, 2012Gruyère, aged cheddar, and parmigiano-reggiano come together in Fat Angel's version of mac n cheese. Seriously, the cheese-to-noodle ratio is like 2:1. Read more
Rob AtkinsonJanuary 22, 2017Adorable place with a broad selection of wine and beer. Small so not good for groups
Thomas MasottaJune 13, 2015Maple butter and meat and cheese plates. Ask the waiter for beer recommendations.
Ingrid HochwindDecember 15, 2014Very cosy sitting, nice selection of draft wines, laid back vibe, awesome food.
Craig VillamorSeptember 5, 2015Belgian beer. Perfect for waiting out your walk-in reservation at State Bird.
The Mac and cheese is one of the best I've had. perfectly spicy.
Robert PucciJune 6, 2012Cy the owner is great. Very knowledgable about his amazing beer selection. The Mac & Cheese is to die for.
Sliders, cask wine, and the Mac and cheese are all good!
Gwyn CMay 27, 2010This is definitely one of the best meals in recent memory...we ordered a bottle of prosecco, a cheese plate, the mac & cheese, a flat bread and a huge salad...everything was fabulous!
Best chicken pot pie in the city. And sliders are delicious!
IndieWhere at ConsciouslySeptember 13, 2011Talk to the staff here because they are amazing. They know the wines and talk to you about it in a straight forward way.
Jina AnneApril 2, 2012Best sliders & best pot pie I've ever had. Maple bacon butter was also awesome.
