Adrian PhillipsNovember 11, 2015The bar menu is excellent. The avocado tartare comes with delicious pie like crust as crackers. The wings are yummy along with a really great juicy burger. Plenty of cocktail choices too!
Time Out San FranciscoOctober 3, 2014Browse classic cocktails at this 1920s-style lounge or you can opt to go off-menu by telling them your liquor of choice and preferred flavors. Bonus: The bar is open till 2am tonight. Read more
MatAugust 26, 2013The chicken, the steak and the halibut are amazingly deliciously service is top and the place is perfect for dining. Has private cabins too, but mostly need reservation!
Ben KayApril 20, 2016OMG. Can't begin to say how good. Combo of great and knowledgable staff and phenomenal food and drinks. This place doesn't look all that from the lobby you walk through but you have to go!- Marissa CSeptember 10, 2016Great cocktails, friendly bartenders and not to hard to find a seat at happy hour. Can't ask for more than that 🍸
Tony XerriMay 20, 2013If you can get passed the abundance of dudes then there's no reason to not love this place. Have an expertly prepared old fashioned and enjoy the live music. The jazz is as tasty as the drinks.
Party EarthJuly 11, 2012Burritt is not a place for a quick drink, especially when it’s busy, because these artfully crafted cocktails take time. While you wait, quell your thirst with some of their refreshing cucumber water. Read more
Chris MessinaOctober 31, 2014You won't find the Old Fashioned on the cocktail menu, but it includes bourbon, Angostura bitters, a dash of simple syrup, orange and lemon peel, with Turbinado sugar sprinkled on top.
Monica LoOctober 22, 2013Get the "Old Pal" - it's got Rye Whiskey, Dry Vermouth and Campari. This Negroni variation was first published in ABC of Mixing Cocktails, 1922, and it's fantastic.
Tasting TableApril 24, 2012Legendary Charlie Palmer finally opens a restaurant in San Francisco. For a mean steak, try the Teres Major ($29), a tender shoulder cut served with a textbook béarnaise and griddled, buttered bread. Read more
Ben CoffeeNovember 16, 2014Wow the cocktails here are amazing! Highly recommended, it's a lovely lounge. Try the Pocito Picante if you like tequila and spice.
Vince WongOctober 14, 2013Classy restaurant from the Charlie Palmer series. Enjoy cocktails and excellent food (try the braised short ribs) while listening to live jazz. Ah...
Bruce TerryNovember 22, 2014Great cocktails, cool atmosphere & great service but very disappointed in the food. The ravioli, was very tough...like it had been reheated for days. The New York steak was tough and sinewy.
vicky sladeNovember 13, 2014Wow! Incredible drinks and the bartenders are super friendly. The food is just as amazing as the drinks...must visit!
The Corcoran GroupJune 19, 2011Elegant and classy vintage inspired lounge in the Crescent Hotel. Attractive and attentive bartenders will expertly make you a delicious Dutch Blood or a Kerouac.
Brian TanDecember 27, 2016During dinner in the main dining room everyone should order the Wingtip Vieux Carré Me Away (Max 4) to receive a special Wingtip coaster.
Bradley PeppersJune 25, 2010This is an amazing and upcoming bar of SF, great staff and the best cocktails. The mixology here is beyond anything I've experienced and is inovative. I hope this is an outspoken spot in the future!!
Luca DLMay 11, 2011It's perfectly mixed with the Crescent Hotel atmosphere, come here for a superior cocktail and chat with the guys at the counter. Drink program from same guy of Bourbon & Branch, PDT, Clover Club NY.
Marc SNovember 18, 2013Tell the bartender which base spirit you want -- gin, bourbon, ... -- and let him pick a cocktail for you.
Loren Monroe-TriceAugust 7, 2014Straight up martinis or fancy cocktails, one can't go wrong. Be adventurous, go with bartenders selections.
PaulinaJune 4, 2013For best results, come here early on a weekday when it's nice and empty... and you can easily snag the bartender for excessive drinks.
Great cocktail menu. Really enjoyed dinner. Whatever you order, make sure to start with the brussels sprout salad.
Andrew P.December 24, 2010These drinks are strong. I got a black cross. Every sip was like taking a shot, but it tasted amazing. I've never had a drink like this before and I like it.
Pisque Picante is my favorite drink but they're all great. Hoping to come with more people to try a bowl!- The Fried Brussels Sprout & Chinese Sausage salad is 1 of my top 5 food dishes in SF. A MUST!
Farshid KetabchiApril 27, 2013Cool place for serious whiskey and bourbon based cocktails. Live jazz friday nights.
Mei LinDecember 20, 2012Drinks are good. The interior has nice brick lined walls and great lighting. Location is central and close to Bart.
Josh will make you a fantastic cocktail if you give him even the vaguest hint of what you're into.
Laurent BenchimolJuly 5, 2011The Black Cross is an awesome cocktail. Most of the drinks here are served with extra on the side, so it's also a great deal. Read more
Susan LohApril 18, 2012fried brussel sprout salad a must. oysters delish, obvs. and top it off with a rhubarb tart.- Ashley MowreyMarch 17, 2015I'd advise against the tater tots, while they are handmade here, they are also kind of mediocre and you only get 5. So, if you want to pay $1 for a tot, go for it. Other than that, cool hidden lounge
Original mixologist just left and took all his drink recipes with him. Drinks have suffered a little but we have conf they'll bounce back....some time.
Cool and swanky vibe. Great mixologists with creative cocktails!
Joel PurrierJune 1, 2013Make sure to request a booth when you reserve - they are super cozy and cool.
