Peacekeeper is one of my favorite bars in the city for the past decade, and when I found out Bar…read moreDarling is part of the same family, I knew I was in the right place. After a park day at the Presidio, we wanted to move the party and we decided on Bar Darling. It was a Saturday afternoon and it was jam packed. Luckily we were able to get some space in the alley way for us to order drinks from our server. We've been on a Friday around 5pm on another day, it wasn't as busy, so definitely a great place to start and maybe end the night. In a time where craft cocktails have gotten really expensive, Bar Darling offers craft cocktails (their signature cocktails) all for $14 each. If you know Peacekeeper, you know there's a lot of thought and imagination that goes into their drinks and it definitely shows here. My favorites were the Mama J (tequila based) and the Jaji (mezcal based). The aesthetic and vibes of this place is 10/10. Definitely great for a group of friends and/or date night!

Visited on a busy Saturday evening with a group of six colleagues for drinks. The main bar area was…read morecompletely full when we arrived, but the staff helpfully directed us to an additional seating area in back, worth knowing if you're planning to stop by on a weekend. I'll note that the promotional photos online give a somewhat misleading impression of the ambiance. The actual interior is considerably more modest and utilitarian than advertised. We ended up seated outdoors beneath one of those industrial heat lamps, which was blasting uncomfortably hot air until our server kindly switched it off at our request. That said, the service was efficient and attentive. Our drinks arrived promptly despite the crowd, and the staff managed the busy room well. Nothing particularly memorable about the experience, but perfectly adequate for a casual evening out. A solid four out of five stars.

Great cocktails and live jazz! Their menu changes seasonally every few months…read more I love their cocktails. Recently, they had a floral and fruit section. I thoroughly enjoyed my Pink Panther cocktail (peaches, fresh citrus, aperol, and vodka.) The ambiance is giving dark academia--love the bookshelves, elevated platforms, and lush leather couches. Every now and then, the lights tim (good for dates), but there's also plenty of girls' groups and guys' nights out here. There's a fun pool table in the back (need to pay to use.) It's nicer than the pool tables at most bars I've been to in SF. Service is pretty good, depending on who's there.

There were multiple people still in the bar and we told them we would finish our drink and be out by 2AM, the security guard then proceeded to try and take a video of picture of us. Absolutely DISGUSTING.

We were easily able to sit at a booth area inside. We got a lychee martini and espresso martini. When we read some past reviews before coming here, people had mentioned a pistachio espresso martini drink, but we didn't see that on the menu. For $14, the martinis were solid. I love a good lychee martini and this one didn't disappoint. My partner's espresso martini was a bit too sweet for our liking though. It was great for the first few sips, but by the end of the drink it was overwhelmingly too sweet. Overall, I liked the vibe of this place and enjoyed our drinks. I would come back here for a casual drink with friends, and maybe check out their outside area in the back.

I can imagine it being great on a warm day in the city. Since we came at night, we ended up sitting around the fire pits, which made it cozy and fun. What I Tried Spicy margarita Espresso martini Lychee martini (sipped from a friend's) The Experience The drinks were pretty average overall, but not too pricey from what I remember. The service made up for it though, the staff came by often to check in and make sure we had drinks, which was really nice. Also loved that they let us bring our own food, which was fab for a birthday hangout. Final Thoughts This is a great spot for group celebrations since you can reserve tables and even bring in your own food. I'd come back again if someone suggested it, especially for another group outing.

We (group of 4) went on a Saturday night and it wasn't too crowded - we were able to get a table. The bar staff were friendly.

The hummus and baba were too salty (plus the salt from the pita). Love the combo of watermelon, feta and black olive, and it was presented originally as blocks, but it was drowned in oil and for 8 chunks of watermelon, I need maybe one chunk of feta, not 4, and I couldn't really taste the olive tapenade. Latkas were okay but seemed refried, as the bottoms were hard, and somehow it was reminiscent of the flavor of the box mix potato pancakes my Mom used to make (not a huge fan). Saw the sandos and it looks like the meat is thicker cut than the thinly sliced east coast deli sandwiches that I prefer. The drink menu looks interesting, so I might return for that.

My friends and I have always loved CC's. We would always come here to finish our night. However, we…read morehad a very bad experience tonight - we were hassled by a very intoxicated woman and tried to manage the situation. When we attempted to mitigate the situation via bartenders and support staff, we were dismissed. We told the bartender that the woman had gotten extremely abrasive with our group, and had even called my friend slurs. However, the bartender diminished our worries and told us that we should simply move to another area. We tried to discuss the situation with another staff member and he was very receptive - however, he anticipated that his manager would be difficult. This was insanely frustrating and so disappointing. We usually go to CC's as a refuge from the chaos of the other bars in the area. Unfortunately, we will be avoiding this bar from now on.

From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly, which immediately set a great tone for the evening.

The atmosphere is relaxed and fun, making it a perfect spot to enjoy a drink or a light bite with friends. Overall, it's definitely a place I'll be coming back to. Great drinks, friendly service, and a welcoming vibe make it a must-visit!

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.

My friend chose cocktails but I forgot which one. We shared the burrata, which was presented with sliced apples & blood orange & regular orange sections with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar & served with toasted baguette slices. It was delicious! I had the mushroom eggs Benedict with a side of bacon with potatoes & it was also delicious! The spinach & variety of mushrooms made it a healthy choice to offset the crispy bacon (4 generous slices too). Service is friendly & helpful. They have a back patio which is uncovered & front parklet for outdoor dining but we opted to sit inside because it was chilly today. The main dining room is sleek & modern with a wall of wine bottles as decor but it also served.

The buns were soft and warm, slightly fluffy Tanpopo 5/5: I'm not a huge fan of spicy tuna but this roll was good tempera style. My bf enjoyed it so much he got a second roll. Lots of sauce and flavor. Dojo 5/5: my favorite roll of the 3 that we tried. I love eel and the bbq eel was so delicious. I love the addition of the crunch. Killed the whole roll to my self Hantui 2/5: I can see how its buttery and melts in your mouth but I felt it wasn't as flavorful to me and I didn't enjoy it as much. It's still really fresh and buttery but also simple. Cookie dough roll 4/5: we had to try!!! Insane with the chocolate chips and the sauces drizzled. I loved the ice cream.
