The bar tender is an expert mixologist; I don't know how he did it but he made the most delicious (and strong) old fashioned (with Knob Creek) I can recall. Highly recommend this special, quaint bar inside this boutique hotel.

So unbelievably mid considering the hype. Very nice waiter. Drinks were ok, presentation had a lot of effort. But it sort of fell flat. Weird ambiance with some guests watching the looping YouTube cityscape videos reeking of cigarette and chatting not ordering anything. Butterflies on the wall are interesting for sure. Prices should have been a tad lower. Just an odd spot. But hey, it’s worth a visit when you’re in the area.

Wonderful and attentive service, perfect drinks, and clean and cozy atmosphere. My friend told the bartender, Carl a general description of the drink she wanted and he gave us exactly what we wanted. Such a pleasant experience, will be back!

Lovely old school bar in a beautiful historic hotel. The ambiance could be improved as the lighting was a bit bright and there wasn’t any music when we first entered (they were very accommodating to turn some in when we asked), but the drinks are delicious and the service is friendly. It makes you feel like you’ve been transported back in time!

Was here for a friend's birthday party and it was excellent. It's a "locals" type of place and is in a scenic area of San Francisco. The staff were friendly and competent. Although they really didn't do coat checks, the desk clerk held my coat with no problem. The buffet food was decent and the wine was very good. Parking is extremely limited but it's served by Muni. It's an older place so it's really to their credit that there was no musty smell.

The 1906 is the best drink I’ve ever had in my life. Mike is awesome. Excellent service and bar snacks.

Carl is amazing. Can talk about anything from Star Wars to NBA playoffs. Pours a great drink. A great spot if you’re looking for a quiet respite from Japantown. Best bartender in the bay!

I'm pretty sure I genuinely embarrassed myself at this fine establishment since I'd had (a) drink(s) beforehand and was completely overwhelmed with how COOL this place is. The service was exceptional, everyone was nice, and the drinks were stiff. I'd love to go back! Now if only I could find their equivalent of a Neville Longbottom and steal his written list of all the next passwords...
