The craft cocktails are amazing. Unique presentations and they taste great. Went for HH (pretty cool that they still honor it on weekends) and got some of their bites which were small in size but yummy. We got the salmon sliders (lox type salmon) and bread with dip, both nice bites to have with our drinks. As for the ... drinks, the martini comes out in a bathtub, and the tom kha inspired drink came out in the fun takeout glass shown in the picture.

I’ve been here several times and continue to order the burger and fries. Therefore this review is based on just that. Highly recommended in a great part of the city.

Fantastic burger. One of the best I’ve tried in SF so far. I loved the side salad too. I had a n/a cocktail and sparkling water and the bill turned out ~$60 after tip, so keep in mind that it can get pricey.
