"This cocktail bar in Russian Hill looks like a fancy hotel mixed with a mid-century living room, and here you can sip high balls, rare whiskeys, and Japanese-inspired cocktails on a wingback chair. It’s the sister bar to the Japanese fine dining restaurant Nisei (located right next door), which is basically your cue to order everything on the seasonal izakaya-style menu, like perfect chicken karaage with black curry and Japanese milk bread with creamy miso honey butter. Come here for a drink before going all in on the tasting menu at Nisei, a special occasion toast, or big-deal date nights. " - julia chen 1, lani conway
