    beetroot, plum, cashew thogayal

    loved our experience here! everything we tried was so delicious and the whole menu felt really unique and well done. some of our favorites were the house bread with fresh paneer and concord grape, moules frites with rasam, and beetroot with plum and cashew thogayal. the beets especially surprised us because they were so flavorful and i usually wouldn't go for a beet dish. make sure to save room for dessert because the sweet potato and vanilla ice cream was incredible and something we would definitely come back for. amazing food, great service, and such a cute atmosphere. already looking forward to our next visit!

    Sweet potato

    Just tried this restaurant last night and honestly had such a great time. Wine was excellent, vibe was cool and intimate, and every dish was delicious. Got the mussels as an entree and they were really good. Dessert was a cardamom ice cream and I wish I could take a pint home with me. Can't wait to go back!

After a Taylor Swift themed class my friend and I popped over and ordered: - The hummus and pita: deliciously pillowy and lemony hummus with fresh grilled veggies and flavorful pita - Fried potatoes: craggy and salty. We inhaled them so fast we forgot to try the side of sauce lol - Non alcoholic sparkling wine: crisp and refreshing without that wine-y taste but not as sweet as sparking apple cider - A rose that had strawberry gossip in the notes: this one was a miss in our pallets. It came off fermented strawberries in a bad way. But you won't love all varieties.

He recommended a couple options for my friend and me to sample, and we ended up loving and choosing exactly those. It was also my first time trying a sparkling red wine, and it's safe to say I'll be reaching for that style more often. The ambiance is beautifully curated, with both indoor and outdoor seating available. Seating is somewhat limited, but the overall vibe makes it feel intimate and thoughtfully designed.

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 environment and mood was incredible, and probably worth the trek over alone. I loved that the place wasn't super crowded or super loud, and the vintage record listening bar decor was a pleasant backdrop to everything to come. 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. I ordered a burger medium and it was mostly pink through the entire burger and had little to no salt in it - there was no flavor! The fries I asked for crispy and they were just not soggy but hardly crisped. All around, the food was lackluster and the service was disappointing.

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.

He met a lot of the famous California wine vineyards that now can go for $500 a bottle 30 years ago or 50 years ago when there were just getting started and only for $5 a bottle. He is super friendly and accommodated us even for a last minute Monday wine tasting a few minutes after the original 8:00 and said he was just excited to have us come see the space and also talked through about how hard it is even make the wine shelves which he made all by himself selecting the redwood lumber and cutting everything there while a junior in college! 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 !!! Also you can read about the pup mascots over the years such as Murphy Lucky and Arfie!

I had the mushroom eggs Benedict with a side of bacon with potatoes & it was also delicious!

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.

After buying two bottles of wine and paying quite an expensive tab my friends and I decided to play one last hand of our card game before leaving. Not 10 minutes after paying the 200$ bill the server rushed us out and told us that we needed to leave to make room for others. I totally understand that this isn't her fault and is due to the high volume of customers but this was quite off putting after such a great experience otherwise. I would recommend but if you are looking for a place to chit chat and play cards with friends you are much better off going elsewhere.

My two main gripes lay with the ambience of the place - if you don't get a table the bar seating is quite squished, and the fact that after dropping $170 on two bottles of wine we were quickly escorted out the moment we were finished to make room for potential customers. I totally understand doing this if it was a packed house, but there wasn't a single person waiting, left a sour taste in my mouth and feel like if you are spending a pretty penny on service you should be able to enjoy the establishment a little bit after you have finished your drinks. Maybe we caught them on an off night, I see a lot of potential still.
