    house hummus
    Sarah C.

    pretty small wine bar inside but they have outdoor seating. it's pretty dark and vibey inside. I only tried the food: - house hummus: there were too many huge chunks of vegetables so it was hard to dip the pita in the hummus - house potatoes: the aioli was nice, potatoes were really hot when they came out

    Crudo + kalamata

    Wine and food were delicious and the bar was cute, but the three 21 year olds behind the counter on Saturday evening couldn't care less about service or providing an accurate answer about the menu. My friend and I were craving olives and asked if the "Crudo & Kalamata" was just a bowl of olives, the blonde girl behind the bar said yes, yet a bowl of raw fish, onions, and olives arrived at our table. Fortunately it was delicious, but not what we were expecting at all based on our question to the server. Typical Marina attitude at this bar and lack of service was frustrating, but not surprising.

    Shawarma
    Mia Y.

    Céleste is thee place to be! I've been to key klub a few times so I thought I knew what to expect, but Céleste is a completely different vibe! It's definitely more intimate and French-y with the best shawarma I've ever had in my life. Finding a place to sit and eat was a bit challenging since it's a bit on the smaller side, but it was so worth it in the end!! The service is great! We were quick to be greeted and given a menu even though the room was busy and packed. The servers were attentive and were quick to find us when our food was ready. I do recommend going a bit earlier before the night starts so you can grab a seat and have some bites!

    Chorizo burrito
    Lily R.

    Rolled into Celeste's late morning, already emotionally invested in a short rib breakfast burrito only to find out they were sold out. Cue dramatic sigh. But hey, that's on me for showing up fashionably late. So, I pivoted to the chorizo breakfast burrito and WOW what a happy accident. This thing was massive (definitely shareable) The eggs were fluffy, the chorizo was bold and flavorful, the tots added the perfect crunch, and the avocado brought that creamy balance. Also, huge shoutout to the melted cheese on the tortilla--a detail that should never go unappreciated. They give you salsa on the side, which I always consider a non-negotiable. It was decent, not mind-blowing, but it did the job. The real MVP though? The sweet, bubbly gal at the counter--such warm, welcoming energy. Made the whole experience feel like I was grabbing breakfast at a friend's place (if that friend made bomb burritos). Next time I'm showing up earlier for that short rib burrito--but I wouldn't be mad about ending up with the chorizo again.

    Spicy feta dip with pita
    Anchal A.

    Having been to celeste a couple times, it's definitely up there in terms of wine bars in the city! I came at 7 on a tuesday and the place was packed which was unexpected. There isn't a ton of seating so keep that in mind. They have a great list of wines -- I ordered an orange and my friend a white wine, both of which we got to taste before. Don't miss out on the food here! We ordered the spicy feta dip and the chicken skewers -- both were so delicious and flavorful :)

    My friends and I went to Céleste on a Friday night around 8 PM, and it was packed. While we appreciated the quick service at the bar, the indoor space was quite crowded, leaving little room to stand without being shoulder to shoulder. To have more space, we opted to sit outside in the parklet. The setup was pleasant, but it was chilly--so definitely bring a jacket if you're planning to sit outdoors. They had a good wine selection, and the pours were a decent size. Overall, it's a good spot for drinks with a busy atmosphere.

    went on a friday night with a girl friend ! wine is delish (~$16/glass), bar gets crowded and loud (fun for groups if you fit inside!!) hard to get seating but you can stand. There is also outdoor seating if that's more your vibe. would be a cute week night date spot or small group outing.

    Hummus
    Mary Bryan O.

    Celeste is my go to neighborhood wine bar! I usually stick to their Lambrusco but they recently changed the brand and I'm not the biggest fan. So, I have shifted to their chilled Celeste red wine which is fantastic replacement. In my most recent visit, I went with a couple girl friends and we shared the hummus plate and skewers for a light meal. You order everything at the bar which is very easy on a laid back Wednesday night. Definitely becomes a little more difficult on popular nights when the place is packed. Doesn't stop me from going either way.

    This place seems to be poppin Packed on a Saturday night Will check out this menu sometime

    Outdoor seating. House hummus w chubby pita
    Hector L.

    Not a very broad wine selection, but you'll find something you like. Likely more of a place you go for the ambiance. Very pleased with the pita and hummus we ordered. The bartender told us it's all made in-house. Liked the outdoor seating options: small tables on the sidewalk or some large tables in a parklet.

The super tinted windows and vintage but chic furniture gave the vibes of speakeasy mixed with record store. The prices were also pretty reasonable, at par with other bars in the SF area. Tips are already baked into the menu prices which I love, so it's not as pricey as it seems. All of the drinks we ordered were beautiful and delicious. I love whiskey sours and espresso martinis so my favorite drinks were the Arlequin and the Gospel. The Arlequin had a perfectly smooth picturesque egg white foam tinted pink with huckleberries. It was a great balance of tart and sweet, and the berry notes complemented the light oak flavors of the scotch. The Gospel was like a classic espresso martini but with more complexities. The orange and ginger added floral notes and the drink was super smooth. The food was also amazing. We didn't order much since we were planning to eat dinner elsewhere, but I wish we ordered more. The stroop waffles were insanely good. It's a savory stroop waffle filled with tuna tartare that was deeply savory with sesame and chive flavor. The smoked crème fraiche emphasized the savoriness and added a richness. The yuzu glaze tied everything together with a light sweet and tart flavor.

The drinks themselves were tasty and a nice twist as well. The espresso martinis, in the pictures below, were great and arrived in wine glasses. Sure, why not? Maybe it was just a charmed night. We found street parking, the bar was pleasant, the drinks were good. What more can you ask?

It was kind of strange but I overlooked it. So we got a proper table and our menus and yet, even though there was only one other couple sitting in the back, it took forever for our server to help us. When he finally came back to take our order, we ended up giving him our entire order for drinks, apps and food cause we were starving (he didn't come to take our order until 30-40 min after we sat down). Then when the food came, it didn't come coursed out at all. The mains came before the shared appetizers. The oysters came out midway through our meal. It was all just kind of a mess.

On the patio, the heat didn't reach every seat leaving parts of the table chilly. Unfortunately, the food seemed to follow the standard set by the furnshings, and was equally mediocre. The short rib was a touch overcooked, though the mashed potatoes it sat upon were lovely. The mac and cheese had a delicious blend of cheeses, but the pasta was too ordinary. The fried chicken that sat upon it was also plain. Service was the bright spot. Our server was warm, gracious, and patient with our large group. For a big dinner group where seating and service matter most, the restaurant has its advantages. But overall I wouldn't give it a recommendation.

Greg got into wine through taking a wine class at school way back and got excited by how a lot of the fathers at his school were both into wine and classical music and really shared his passion with us -- talking about not only a wine but also the farm to table movement and how Chez Panissse helped to innovate there! Additionally, the other folks at the bar were lovely talking about how they got into wine and their journeys and favorite wines! Definitely would suggest Monday wine tasting nights !!!

The food itself was fine, but the service completely ruined the evening for us. The blonde woman bartending was especially rude and dismissive. Every interaction felt like we were bothering her just by asking a question or trying to order. There was very little warmth or basic hospitality, and her attitude made us feel unwelcome from the start. One of the male servers was just as frustrating. His responses came across extremely snarky and unnecessarily sassy, even when we were being polite and simply asking normal questions. Instead of feeling taken care of, we felt like we were being talked down to. Having multiple staff members interact with us this way made it hard to brush off as just one bad moment. We weren't expecting over-the-top service, just basic friendliness and professionalism. Unfortunately, the attitude from the staff overshadowed everything else. It's hard to enjoy a meal when the service makes you feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. I've had such a positive experience at the Sausalito location, which made this even more disappointing. I really hope management addresses the service here because the restaurant itself has potential, but based on this experience, I wouldn't be eager to return.
