A City Gem We Miss!
I really hope this place reopens soon. In this city, no one else can even come close to matching the quality of selection and the overall vibe. It's a truly unique experience that's hard to find elsewhere.

Fantastic Food and Whiskey Selection!
My experience at this restaurant was amazing! The vibe was great, and they have an absolutely fantastic whiskey selection. Beyond the drinks, the food was incredible.
The sashimi plate and the sweet potato fries were both sooooooo good!

Whiskey Haven with Great Vibe
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially for whiskey lovers! The selection of whiskeys is extensive. While the service is priced at $$$ (which felt a bit high for a beer), the Kyara Pale Ale was deservedly excellent.
The staff offered great recommendations, and the overall vibe was perfect for catching up with friends.

Outstanding Drinks, Decent Food
My experience at this restaurant was marked by a decent food offering, but the true stars were the whiskey selection and the superb cocktails. The atmosphere is casual, and casual attire is fine here.

Great Happy Hour Deals!
My experience was centered around the 4-7pm happy hour! I enjoyed 1/2 off select cocktails, sake, beer, wine, and food. It's worth noting that whisky was not included in the happy hour specials.
The restaurant offered a good selection of happy hour food, which was helpfully indicated by an asterisk (*) on the menu.

Excellent Whisky, Food, and Service
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic. I was impressed by the best collection of Whisky I've seen in San Francisco. The kitchen is excellent, and the service is welcoming and attentive.
The atmosphere is fantastic, especially with the regulars. It's absolutely a place I'll be returning to.

Excellent Food and Fun Drinks
My experience at this restaurant was great. The atmosphere was super chilled, and the food was excellent. The drinks were also lots of fun.
I particularly enjoyed the wagyu kushiyaki, agadashi tofu, and three rolls: yamato, shone knife, and the spiders. All of these dishes were equally delicious.

Great Whiskeys and Skewers!
My experience at the restaurant was great! The selection of whiskeys is impressive. I enjoyed a few small plates and a generous amount of skewers, which were a must-get.
I highly recommend reserving a table for evenings.

Great whisky lounge with good food
My experience at this lounge was very positive. It's my favorite chill lounge spot in the city, offering a great selection of whisky. The staff were knowledgeable and friendly, which enhanced the overall experience.
While it's not the cheapest, the price is understandable given the quality. The food was surprisingly good. I highly recommend this place!

Good Food, Unbearable Heat
My experience at this restaurant was mixed. The food is good, but the atmosphere on a hot day is unbearable due to the lack of AC. This made it difficult to enjoy the meal.
Additionally, the drinks were hella expensive.
