I met here with an acquaintance to discuss something important over drinks & we had a special time. The nature of our discussion was certainly influenced in a relaxed manner by the mild volume music playing, soft lighting, and high ceilings. The interior was beautiful, very custom lighting covers & wooden racks. Somewhat large selection of wines/sake but it wasn't overwhelming due to the simplified menu that they provided. Service was top tier, a server stopped by about three times to collect empty containers, refill water, and check-in about how the drinks were. With a friendly expression on their face each time. The lucky dog sake juice box and beer combo was SUUUUCH a good move! I've been a fan of the lucky dog/cat/chicken brand, for their fun packaging of beers. However, I did not know that they craft sake wine boxes too. That is out of this world! And I believe that, to use a baseball metaphor, they "hit the ball out of the park!" On this one. The beer wasn't half bad either. Would I recommend going to Millay? Hell yeah dude!!!

I'm so surprised this place exists in the city! I've been looking for sake bars in SF, and saw…read morereviews about this spot being fairly low key. It's not too far from the main street in the area, and the moment I got out of my uber, I knew this place would be a vibe! I came here at 7:30pm the day after Christmas, so it was empty. I love the vibe of Millay - artsy decor, pink neon lights, and cute seats to sit in. I tried two different types of clean + fruity sake, and it came in such a cute ceramics! The cashier helped us choose, and we were able to taste it before purchasing. I also loved their basket of Asian chips! They even made it a lil fancy by cutting the top and making it look like a bowl haha. A great spot for a small social gathering of 2-4 people. I love the chill vibes and intimate setting. I will defs be back!

It's a great spot. they frequently host local musicians and fun food pop-ups, so checking their website for upcoming events is worth it and booking a reservation.

Dark sexy interior and a quiet vibe. It was so sleek and chic. There is a limited menu of nibbles so there are a few restaurants around that work with JAX where you can have delivered right to JAX. Definitely came in clutch. Loved the 2 glasses of Cab I've had! I'm a big fan of red wine, so it was super delicious. I love finding spots that produce their own wine. Super cute spot! I loved that its tiny and little hidden. Definitely a spot to put on my list for when im back in town.

I love the interior as well as the lighting inside. I also like the mix of seating - from bar seating to velvet couches. It feels quite intimate inside, and the music is very nice as well. I got one of the gluten-free ciders to try, and it was great! I loved the fruity flavors of the drink and enjoyed that they labeled the gluten-free options carefully on the menu. On the day we went, they also were serving empanadas, and they looked so big and smells quite delicious. I definitely would've gotten one if I hadn't already been stuffed from dinner. The service was also great as the waiter came and checked on us periodically, and also answered questions we had about the food and drinks :) Definitely will be coming back again!

The atmosphere is very mellow and calming, making it a great spot to actually sit down and have a real conversation without feeling overwhelmed by loud music or crowds. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating which is a nice plus depending on the vibe you're looking for. Their selection of ciders, beers and wines is also pretty solid. We ended up trying the Oak Dry Cider and it was crisp, refreshing and very easy to drink. The overall space feels welcoming and relaxed, definitely one of those spots you can casually stop by to unwind after a long day. Will definitely be coming back.

I love the variety of cheeses that they provided, especially the super creamy round one on the medium sized board.
