    The bar.
    Len S.

    The bar is awesome! I love playing pool, and they have complimentary pool when you buy drinks. The bartenders are nice and attentive. The bar manager Cuong interacts with the customers, and he even asked me how I'm doing. He is always walking around talking and laughing with customers. It feels like a great neighborhood bar! Drinks are poured well, and have a good beer selection. Keep up the good job!

    Great local Mission bar with the most amazing *secret* kitchen in back! Played pool while noshing on some of the best COLD, Peruvian ceviche I've ever eaten, followed by a beef empanada (shocked by how delicious this was!). I tried their fried chicken, and while it was beautifully prepared- the Peruvian stood out.

    Bah hum bug!!! Sorry I don't like Christmas. Personal reasons. Butttt.... Rocks Den was really low key and mellow this evening just what I needed. Minus the OG arguing with his wife on his blue tooth. Hilarious though. Merry Christmas & Happy new year

    Manager is really cool.

    1st time here and it's bigger and better. Been to their old location and this is definitely an upgrade. Bartenders are cool and they hook u up on the drinks. Manager Cuong is really sweet n fun. He drinks with you too. Love their new private party room. $500 all day from when they open till close and you can bring in your own food. Fun place! Definitely recommend the place!

    Now this place is really cool but there wasn't a lot of people when we went. We went on a Monday and I guess no one goes to the bar on a Monday LOL My friends and I got a Hennessey and Coke and it was made just right. I love how you are able to play pool for free and the Bar played hip-hop music. I met the owner and he is very welcoming and nice. He made us feel right at home and I love how they have couches and chairs that you can sit to enjoy your drink. I deafly will be coming back on a weekend or knowing that there is a place in that area to hang out. They do close earlier than normal if they don't have a lot of people in the bar. They have a lot of drink selections and it wasn't overly priced either Definitely can't wait to try it again I know weekend or more busier time.

They weren't sure where to go, so I quickly yelped bars and this one popped. It wasn't super busy, so we easily grabbed a table. Kinda divey, kinda neighborhoody, and they played good music. Very much my group's style with the old school r&b and hip hop. Drink prices above were reasonable. I got one round and my friend got the other one. Each round averaged 3.5 drinks and about $41.50 each. $52 each with tip. Nice place to hit up if you're it the neighborhood and looking for a night cap of sorts. Music was a little loud, so talking can be a challenge, but we had a good time. REVIEW #3826

I walked in to a thumping beat on a Saturday evening, just killing time, really. The music was unnecessary, or at least unnecessarily loud. It was a small crowd that had nothing better to do on Valentine's night. The bartender and I had to lean towards each other to get my order right. I just had a dirty vodka martini, competently made. Nonfood available, but there was a box of pretzel snacks sitting in the bar, which she handed me. More brightly lit than an ordinary dive bar, but so much more could be done with it.

Not only did our order take a lifetime to come out but our beer was forgotten twice. As a joke I started a timer to see how long it would take to receive our last drinks. The timer stopped at 50 mins, strike 3. Overall, wouldn't return as service was subpar; hummus sampler was good though.

The sandwich, waffle fries side, salad, and cocktail totaled $60 and filled us up. Really crispy fries and awesome crispy edges to the smash burger! The salad left something to be desired despite a large portion size. I think I'll ask for dressing on the side if I order that item again. I did have to get up a couple times to close the door, but the staff caught on and paid attention to when it was ajar. The servers were friendly and checked on us three or four times but didn't try to convince us to order more, which was appreciated. Apparently Tuesdays are trivia nights 7-9 and it looks like a lively, friendly yet competitive crowd. Will definitely return one week to test my Jeopardy seasoned trivia knowledge. I would recommend this place!

Kinda weird since later another party of 2 was able to sit on the couch area. Our server took awhile to get to us and then was rushing us when speaking to us. I asked for a sweeter sav blanc and sampled 2 kinds. On the second sample he didnt pour one for my friend so we had to taste from the same glass. I didnt like any of them and when i asked to sample the rose he was snappy and said i can only give you two samples. I ended up ordering one of the samples i tried but didnt really like it. The food however was amazing. I would come back for this. But when I come back I would ask for a different server.

This wine bar is hidden from plain view and tucked away in the Excelsior/Outer Mission. Some friends and I discovered this little gem while looking for a place to have a nightcap. Sippin' Wine Bar is located on the second floor of the Bottoms Up Bar, but the vibe is totally different. Not sure if the two bars are actually affiliated, but they are like night and day. The stairs leading up to the bar are lit up and the interior of the bar is just absolutely gorgeous! It's spacious and low lit with an extremely sexy ambience. The decor is just out of this world! They have the cutest tables and sofas. The lamps and artwork are very unique but visually appealing, and the tables are set with candles that create a very sensual vibe. There's a small but adorable little patio where you can relax and get some air. The interior designer deserves a pat on the back AND a few glasses of wine (wink wink). Speaking of wine, they have tons and tons of it! Their selection is extensive and they make it really obvious with all of their lovely wine bottles that are on display. I really enjoyed their Angeline Pinot Noir as well as the Kungfu Girl Riesling. They serve food here as well. We had just come from dinner, but a few of us who shall remain nameless (cough cough) were still hangry and ordered garlic noodles, garlic fries, and tater tots. Yep, somebody's breath was stankin' but it wasn't mine! Although I didn't try any of the food, It smelled wonderful. There was no food left behind, so I'm assuming that it was delicious! The owner Shirley was fantastic! She happily hosted our group and let us sample several different wines from her collection. She mingled with us as well and talked about the business. The bar is still relatively new and opened a little over 2 years ago, so she is still trying to generate more business. I'm hoping that more people will frequent this place because I really enjoyed it and would love to see it stick around. So glad we stumbled upon this spot, and I'm looking forward to many more future visits.
