Great spot to stop!

by canna

Yes, this is a San Francisco landmark. I've been going there for years. It's the kind of place where people remember your name. You really have to enjoy one of Richie's cocktails, he's one of the bartenders and he will mix you up something unique. Ask him about his "signature" drink. So many things happen around this chic bar scene, from movies being filmed here, like "Twisted" from 2004. It's not unusual to run into someone like Ashleigh Judd, or Samuel L. Jackson just chillin at the bar. I love this place and I have to get my Tosca fix at least once a month.

• Pros: heart of north beach
• Cons: parking

Best in Northbeach

by dustpm

This place is the best spot in Northbeach. It is in the best location and still manages to keep out all the trendy yuppies that frequent places up the road. It drips of class and character; the music plays to the tunes of Duke Ellington and Dean Martin. The best bartenders in the city that will mix you anything from a Dirty Martini to the all-famous Espresso Martini. If you are lucky enough to score a booth and a hottie waitress you can often spot the many celebs that frequent this bar often. And if you are really lucky the owner might let you see the back room, which is reserved for the likes of famous Actors, Writer and Politicians. The stories I have from this place are ones that my grandkids will hear. If you have not been go, and it you have you will be back!
