They sat 6 of us at a table for 4. Drinks were small and pricey. Food was good but service took a while. Looks like the early (6pm) staff were not ready to open up yet. It is mostly a bar so that was expected.

terrible service. food came more than an hour late and was cold and tasteless. the music was so loud we couldn’t even hear ourselves think. we got out as fast as we could. thankfully our waitress and the manager agreed to not charge us for the food, showing some decency.

Good first date experience for me on whiskey Wednesday (half price select whiskeys) the bartender gave great cocktail recommendations to my date. Cool old fashioned whiskey bar vibes. Not very busy on Wednesday in dry January but still fun.

It was a Saturday night before a Sharks game so it got crowded around 6 and noisey. Food was good, I had the impossible burger and my partner had the caesar salad with beef. Beef was cooked exactly as requested. Burger was good but the bun it came on was 50% the size of the patty and dark brown/black in color. When it first came to the table I though the top of the bun was missing and this was a mushroom cap on top! lol It was good though. The only bummer was that the entree menu linked to on Open Table did not match what was offered, the actual selection was much smaller than listed on OT.

I thought this would be a good place to talk with a friend and have a cocktail and appetizer. My cocktail was fancy and very good, and the calamari was excellent (think it comes from same kitchen as Farmer's Union). However it was VERY loud- they actually had a DJ playing -but just house beats that nobody was actually dancing to- so it was difficult to have a conversation. Server never checked on us and I had to go to the bar to get another drink. Looks like the back patio was nice, had it not been cold and raining that would have been a better option.
