Their happy hour is one of sf’s best kept secrets. 1/2 off select dishes - they don’t skimp on the selections either- along with discounts on cocktails and whiskeys. A bit small though so be sure to get there early for a seat.

Great place to grab a drink and some food. After reading about this place I decided we had to go. It lived up to every expectation. Whiskey selection was amazing. Staff was super friendly and very knowledgeable. If you’re in San Francisco make sure you check them out.

Nice laid back environment if you arrive before 10pm. Food is good but some items can be disappointing. Last time I was there the shishito peppers were extremely hot and I could not eat them. Their whiskey selection is extensive with some great choices. They also serve cocktails and I believe a few wines. There's also DJ playing some lounge music which helps creating a laid back vibe. My only complaint: some customers can be disruptive after a few drinks and staff is not effective at dealing with them, i.e. does nothing.

Definitely one of my all time favorite places in SF. If you're a scotch aficionado or if you enjoy upscale Japanese cuisine, this is the place for you - the food truly is incredible and the scotch selection is hard to beat in SF. The decor and atmosphere (modern Asian inspired but still very cozy) make it the perfect place for a first date or a small friends gathering.

Best hole in the wall find ever. Food was damn good which I wasn’t expecting. Asian sky bar atmosphere had an awesome chill vibe. Japanese whiskey lives up to its reputation and this is only place you can get most of the good stuff. Staff is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable too.

Simply amazing. The Go Ten Sashimi was spectacular and used the freshest of ingredients. The Shonen Knife used truffle oil that gave a unique flavor, but still was fantastic.

Excellent whiskey tasting experience! The bartender, Anthony, was very knowledgeable and friendly. They do not have set flights, so you can build your own. I tried the port cask Kavalan and two local whiskeys. Great place for a whiskey tasting, date night, or night out with friends.
