In Short
This tiny piece of real estate is bathed in a warm palette--burgundy, brown, orange--and boasts great social feng shui: a long, super-soft bench is paired with ottomans and cocktail tables.The lit-up bar is housed under adobe stucco arches, but stained-glass hanging lamps give the hacienda aesthetic an artistic edge. Past the bar, a bullet-chain curtain separates the loungers from the boogiers, who move face-to-face with the DJ on a tiny 10-person dance floor.

I've just moved over from Europe to SF. Been on Wed at Anu. Great Place. Finally one in SF wehere you can listen to really good music. All the other clubs I've visited yet (and that was quite a lot for the short time I'm here) are not good. Its ridicullus what some people in the US call electronic music... The crowd was also good. People seemed even more open minded to mee than in other places in SF. I can not say much about the girls there, cause there werent many. I'll check it out on Sat and rereport. It's definetly worth going if you want to hear real good electronic music from downtempo to minimalistic and experimental. Cant say much about the prices. Compared to the EU everything is cheap in SF. :)

Hey this is a really great scene here. You gotta hand it to the promotors here. THe Wednesday nights are rockin. That is rare in such a small local bar such as Anu. Also there are some really hottie bartenders there. I like coming to 6th street and getting such a great ambiance when I come into Anu. Club Six is fun too but Anu gives you much more of an intimate vibe. Plus it's predominantly electronic music so you always know what you are in for.Hey this is a really great scene here.

Probably because I go there a lot and always have chicks with me but, it really does seem like they work hard too and give great service. I write a lot of reviews and know a lot of bartenders. The people that serve me there are good news. Go see for yourself.

Great place - horrible bartenders!~ - if the bartenders got their act together this place would be highly recommended. In SF we have a ton of choices and a ton of great places. This arogance is unwelcome and everybody I know will be told about my numerous repeats of poor bar service. I've been ignored for 15+ minutes waiting for a drink, while the bartender chats with their friends. Better yet - how about the bartender overcharging and not giving us the happy hour price? Yes - that's right, be on the look out for this one. How about waiting 15 minutes to get a drink and then missing the happy hour drink price. Well, this has happened more than once. I hope the owner reads this and cleans up the ship. Com'on get it together, this is great place, great vibe, except for this very big negative.
