"This alleyway piano bar in North Beach hosts a handful of ticketed dinners (with a show) each month. Inside the campy cabaret, there are red velvet chairs, servers dressed in cheetah print, and performers you won’t shut up about for months. The talent rotates, and you can find more info about who’s performing when you buy tickets (we could not recommend a night with Miss Bouvèé more). Tickets sell out fast, so keep an eye on their Instagram for upcoming dates. Also, buy the VIP tickets for about $12 extra. You get early entry, front row seats, and access to the full Silver Lake Bistro menu (including the cheeseburger)." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
