Hazel Southern Bar & Kitchen

This is our first visit to San Francisco and this restaurant was highly recommended to us while we were attending the Raiders football game as a place we must try. The ambiance, vibe, decor and staff was fabulous! The food was exceptional and drinks were awesome! They made me a believer in grits. I've never liked them. I ordered the oxtails and grits WOW! My husband ordered the blackened shrimp. We highly recommend and strongly encourage ALL to try Hazel Southern Bar and Kitchen! This was without a doubt the best food and overall dining experience of our SF vacation. We cant wait to come back!

Wonderful vibe for a Southern Food experience! Pool table, whiskey bar and attached jazz club. Food is good but to healthy to be on the great side. Guess low fat can mean lower flavor

Great spot for small bites & drinks after work. Happy hour food menu is limited & they are so so. The buffalo sauce wings are good for $7. Great selection on cocktails for happy hour. Will come back for drinks but not food. Reasonable price with excellent service.

Food was delicious. Tater tot nachos was a nice starter. Fried chicken was tasty and not overly heavy. Collard greens were light and flavorful. Cheddar biscuit was good. Next time, I'd try the dirty rice and the ribs.

Came here with a small group on a Monday for dinner. The cocktail menu can be overwhelming so it took us some time to decide which whiskey/bourbon/ryes we wanted to try. We also were there at the tail end of happy hour so decided to start with the fried Mac n cheese which had a tasty breading. We also split the tater tot nachos (not on happy hour menu) which I wasn't a fan of. They are house made I believe where the tot is more of a mashed potato formed into a cube and breaded. The problem I had with these was they got soggy quick and I like my tots crispy. For main course we split the fried chicken and blackened cat fish dishes. Each large plate comes with 2 sides so we got the collard greens, mashed sweet potatoes, cornbread, and brussel sprouts. Between the 4 of us it was enough (the sides portions were larger than I expected). Aside from the food, the ambiance of the bar is great. Casual seating and even has two pool tables and a full size shuffle board. Also, there is another bar called Mr. Tittles that is connected and hosts live jazz everyday (also has own bar). I'd recommend this as more of a happy hour spot or a place to simply grab a drink. It's not much of a dinner place to me meaning I wouldn't recommend it just for the food.

Had the best time here! The parmesan garlic wings are YUMMY. Im hooked! ... the bartenders serve great drinks, well crafted and nice as can be ... Like Beignets? They have yummy beignets and peach cobbler too. The caramel sauce is OMG delicious too. Go here. Youll like it.

I went with a group of friends for the first time last night. For a weeknight, the place was packed! Thankfully, one of my friends knew this and we had a reservation--just to sit in the bar! They do serve southern and Cajun food (grits and alligator). We ate a ton of their Cajun fries--they were hot, spicy and delicious! Located at 1446 Market--just off Van Ness--they serve over 300 different whisk(e)ys! (Their parenthesis around the "e".) Not being a whiskey fan--I already drank prosecco earlier--so I was ready for something different and I like tequila or rum when I go out. For my 1st drink, I had a "Smokin' Cactus"! This spicy concoction was made with mezcal and jalapeno and was interesting to say the least. For my 2nd drink, I tried the "Blood Orange Margarita". The rims of both drink glasses were unique tastes. I highly recommend. I would have given 5 stars except for 2 reasons: 1. Even food items that you wouldn't think would have meat--collard greens and cabbage--were NOT vegetarian. I would have preferred more vegetarian options. 2. Maybe because they were busy? But once when we asked for drinking water--they brought not one but TWO huge carafes off HOT water! I do recommend and would return--ideally when not so crowded.

Pretty decent cocktails and good bartenders! The bad? The bragarts who yell for everyone to be heard how much they earn ! The shallow conversations wouldnt be a bother if they spoke softly, but these people are YELLING! So, if you can stomach the inane drunkard obnoxiouness, then you'll love the rest! Also, the lame seating system needs an overhaul. We walked in, asked for a table, when clearly there were at least 8 open seats and were told "1 hour wait ". We went right to the bar and got 2 seats(,which was lucky I admit) and ordered food and drinks. We were in and out in roughly 25 minutes and then they call us for a table. Then, the hostess sees us from a distance and comes at us REAL passive agressively. It was honestly absurdly comical, the whole experience. For my, this bar reeks of pretention and for NO reason. Its a bar in a city overcrowded with bars. Nonetheless, the basics. Good food, sure. Good drinks, definitely. Worth the trouble? Not at all
