    Cute wine bar off of Polk and California! Small cozy space, perfect for dates or grabbing a drink with friends!

    Natural wine and white wine

    Walked in and was met with a charming wine bar on Polk street that still has an aesthetic feel. Enjoyed the fun light fixtures and hanging neon banana a lot for the funky vibes. Tried a white wine and a natural wine here. The day was winding down so service was a bit slower, but totally makes sense because it was late and everyone was definitely starting to wrap up. Enjoyed my experience! Will definitely be back and hopefully get to try some bites as the kitchen was closed when I visited.

    Ora is not your typical wine bar. It is the most friendly wine place. Own by a fun and creative woman. If you are in the area don't miss this place to have a chat with locals!

    Galipette Cider ($8)

    Ora is a new addition to Polk and unlike any other wine bar I have ever been to, speakeasy meets chic. The ambiance is laidback offering indoor bar and table seating as well as outdoor, high table seating. Proof of vaccination is checked upon arrival. The menu is expansive consisting of reds, whites, bubbly's, ciders, beers and bites. I am a huge cider enthusiast, and got the galipette; it was delicious. Service was on the slow end, which is totally understandable as there was only one employee, but they were so kind and helpful. Overall, a great experience and my new go-to wine bar in the area.

    Wanted to check out this spot since it opened fairly recently. The sign says they open at 5pm though it was disappointing when I arrived around 5:15pm and they were closed. Came back around 7pm and they were open. The space is dimly lit and decorated colorful neon lights. They have board games available, seems like it would be a fun spot to hang out with friends. Seems like the other customers know each other pretty well. Looked like there was only one staff member working so took a little while to get our order. Drink recommendations were great, would want to come try the other things on the menu.

    This is the best wine bar! Sabrina is so cool. Good drinks with good vibes.

    Come here if you want a good time. Their wine selection is the best. Stay home otherwise.

    A few friends and I were looking for a a chill place for a few nice glasses of wine and stumbled upon Ora. The place is lovely and the ice wine delicious. The staff is super friendly too. We'll definitely be back

    I had an amazing time at Ora. The crew is fantastic and will make sure you have the time of your life ! The selection of wine and beer is unique combined with an atmosphere that will make you feel welcome and have fun with folks with many different backgrounds, interests. it's all around the best bar I've been in SF. Congrats to Ora team to bring so much love and good vibes to SF, at at time when we all most need it.

I love the wood tables and the steps that lead you to a private room upstairs. The space is amazing and attendees loved it. They have a photo booth too. Staff are wonderful! Thank you, Naz and Ife! Amazing bartenders. They were so friendly, attentive, and personable. Many attendees said they came to the event particularly because they love Arcana. It's conveniently located near BART and multiple bus lines and some Lyft bike docks. I cannot recommend Arcana enough! It's great for date night, girls' night, corporate meetups, and more. It's welcoming and inclusive and the food and drinks are delicious and strong. Will be back!

Charging the $10 event fee on discretion before the posted event start time seems... shady? illegal? My two friends got in a few minutes before with no cover. I was dealing with a bike lock while they went in. We were not there for the event but rather as volunteers from the weekly cleanup refuse crew in the Mission. You get perks as a thank-you for doing your part in making the City a cleaner place. We had just had a lovely time at another participating business (Beehive) and planned on Arcana being our final stop. Thankfully I was able to use the restroom without a fee, with my gear held up outside by the security team. While waiting in the restroom line, I told a staff member about all this, and the worker seemingly went up to the front to find out what's going on. The line took a few minutes, my friends also bumped into me, and I told them I'd likely wait for them outside the business post-restroom while they finished their wine. Already reported to the Mayor's Office. Maybe I'll add BBB. Should be honest and equitable! Four out of 200+ reviews by me have been one star, so I rarely share negativity. It's all rather unfortunate as other visits here went off without an issue. I warned a group of four about all this while I waited out front, and after talking to the front door folks, they left and thanked me for the advice. Please be careful if you visit here. . . .

The energy is vibrant without feeling overwhelming, and the noise level is just right. It's quiet enough to have a conversation and get lost in your own thoughts, but not so quiet that you feel awkward sitting in silence. Plus, the people watching was pretty entertaining, which definitely added to the experience. The three of us only tried two different wines. My friend ordered a glass of Masha, while my other friend and I both ordered the Los Chuchaquis. The verdict: Masha was really good. Good enough that a second glass was ordered! As for the Los Chuchaquis, I personally didn't love it. I found it a little too tannic and bitter for my taste. If you have a low tolerance for bitterness, this might not be the wine for you. That said, my friend, who ordered the same wine, absolutely loved it and thought it was delicious. So maybe I just ordered the wrong wine for my palate? ‍ Either way, the wine is only part of the experience. The energy here is fantastic, the bartender was welcoming and friendly, and the crowd was cheerful without being obnoxious, which I really appreciate. I'm not usually much of a night person, but I genuinely had a great time. It was one of those evenings that reminded me how nice it is to get out, enjoy good company, and simply soak in the atmosphere. I'm really glad I took my friends up on their offer to go out. Definitely a 5 star experience for the atmosphere, the energy, and the overall vibe. This seems to be such an interesting neighborhood. I'd love to come back and wander around, explore more, and discover what else this part of the city has to offer.
