In Short – From the colossal fresh floral bouquet that faces guests as they enter to the dripping chandeliers and thematic use of velvety red, everything at the Starlight is opulent. Friendly bartenders pour plenty of cosmos and the club's signature Cable Car--a cinnamon-rimmed brandy libation--is a must-try. A well-heeled crowd takes to the sprawling lounge filled with linen-draped cocktail tables and high-backed banquettes for drinks, or to the dance floor for Top-40 tunes spun by a DJ. –

Editor's Tips

Where to Sit:
Table reservations are recommended, especially on weekends. To book a table (available for 10 people or less), call at least three to four days in advance.
Look Good:
A dress code is strictly enforced: No caps, sportswear or jeans are permitted.
Parking:
Valet is available at the hotel, otherwise the closest parking garage is the Union Square (between Post and Geary streets).
What to Drink:
The line of "Million Dollar Cocktails," which cost $90-$650, use super-premium liquors like Louis XIII de Remy Martin and Macallan 25 Years Old. Splurge on "Drinking the Stars" ($325 for 750 ml), Dom Perignon mixed with Chateau de Ravignan 1979 Armagnac infused with Madagascar vanilla bean, orange peel and raisins.

Ruined Wednesday night at Starlight

by dellamora at Citysearch

Wow what a great ending to a nice evening with friends.

While sipping some champagne and conversing with friends I had the great idea to pick up a rose falling from the central vase. I put it in my hair and all my friends complimented me on how well it matched what I was wearing.

Right away the bouncer, with no life of his own, came and literally threw me and my friends out of the club, but not before making a point to shout at me and try to publically humiliate the whole group of us.

I am so happy that this establishment has professional doormen working for them instead of those guys you would find bouncing obnoxious people outside of a slummy bar. It truly made me disgusted with the fact that I wasted a perfectly good Wednedsday night I could have otherwise spent somwhere else.

  • Pros: meeting friends
  • Cons: staff working at starlight

I used to work close by..

by Irish31344 at Citysearch

In 1968 when I lived in SFO.. I was a poor Irish Lass struggling to make ends meet. I love to go to the bars after work. Don't think HARRY'S was around back then. It would have been my place.. where they knew my name, and I could sit and chat with the guys after work. Anything on Powell or Golden Gate would have been on my way home. I wish, I wish, I could be there now. I would walk in and the guy behind the bar would hollar... HI, Healthy.. yep that is what they called Irish back then. She was quite a handful. After a couple of drinks, a few snacks at happy hour... Irish would have continue the walk home along golden gate avenue to Fulton & Fillmore... walk in the front door to the building and climb the stairs to her studio apartment -- rent $85 a month.. I wish I wish... it could still be that cheap. But it is not. And I am no longer young, but I will be visiting Harry's in September when I visit SFO where I left my heart.. to see if I can find it again after 40 year. LQQK for the little ol blue haired lady on her BLUE MACHINE... going GREEN to SAVE MOM... yep, mother earth is mad and we had better pay attention.

  • Pros: Everything
  • Cons: NONE

The Bouncers are Total Losers

by flourett2008 at Citysearch

OK so this place has nice decor a great views......BUT!!! Unless u like watching fat bouncers dance to techno, and old people undressing you with their eyes DO NOT GO!!! The place is filled with OLD PEOPLE. It looks more like a upscale nursing home than a club/lounge. The biggest disappointment was the BOUNCER AT THE DOOR. He was such a little wh0re and needs to be fired. Wait no, don't fire him. San Francisco already has too many homeless people. Besides, poor guy, he's about in his thirties and still just a measly bouncer for a TERRIBLE CLUB. I suggest you rename the place Harry Denton's Nursing Home With Loser Bouncers!

  • Pros: View
  • Cons: Bouncers/ People/ Vibe
