Beautiful views with multiple fire pits to sit by and keep warm. Arrive at opening to get a seat or you will be waiting a bit. Cocktails run about $16 each

Trendy rooftop bar with fire pits and views of the city . Get there early (like 9pm) on weekends because a line forms quickly and you can wait for over an hour. Seats are in short supply.

Bryce Simpson

The views are beautiful, and it’s a great space. Not crowded , and has a nice ambiance. People were dressed a bit fancy however so I took note for the next time I stop by.

Zac Witte

The cocktails are good and the view of the city is great. One of the few places in SF with fire pits and outside drinking. It’s really expensive and the food is laughably bite sized for the price.

Cocktail suggestion: Schrodinger. Get there early to get a seat or fire pit . Security brings up groups of 5 at a time in the elevator .

Jody Vaynshtok

On the pricy side, but worth the price for the view . Fire pits and delicious cocktails make this a perfect spot for a sunset .

Rewan Parti

Beautiful rooftop with outdoor seating and fire pits . Order yourself some cocktails and try their black bean slider ! Enjoy the views ...

Whitney R.

A bit pricey even for SF but there are very few rooftop bars so they can charge what they want. The line sucks but you will appreciate when you get upstairs as it's not crowded .

Amy B

Besides the obvs great view it’s spacious and comfy . Drinks could be stronger.

Manhattan was good, bloody Mary spicy , cheeseburger above average, sablefish good. Great service. Pleasant views . Valet $19 per hour.

Love that place for the service, drinks, food and beautiful view , one of my favourite rooftop places

There is a lot of hype to this place - and it’s worth it, as long as you can get a seat.

If you’re thinking of checking this place out without the chaos, go on a Sunday around 3:30pm.

Good cocktails , great view , awful service

Expensive cocktails . Good views .

Great views , good drinks. Awful service and generally not worth the wait in line on one of the worst blocks in San Francisco.
