Reviews for The Alembic in San Francisco, CA
We enjoyed the drinks and were really pleasantly surprised by the great food!!
We came here from the cold to wait out before dinner elsewhere in the thick of NFL finals. It's a lovely place for a cocktail... bar...she has a sort of an eclectic charm to it on account of its name. My wife tried the Negroni recommended by our dinnerhost which his wife had when they first dated here. It's differently concocted from the one back home as this one uses tequilabut still very good. I settled for a ginger ale but wished they had Hollows & Fentimans alcoholic ginger beer. Still, acharming place. Read more
Great food tonight. Went with the flat iron steak and was cooked to perfection. Palenta fries, pretzels, and beer was very... filling. Liked the atmosphere being super chill, as I played cribbage with my SO before and after dinner. Music was also solidand so all around it was great vibes. Read more
Everyone bragged about this place but it was just alright when we had visited last night. Service was quite odd. Our bartender... wasn?t acknowledgeable in drinks as we would hope. At one point, she would asked us what it was. Weird huh? Drinks were decent.But their fries were damn good! So fluffy and light. Nice crisp to it. That was probably the best thing there to me! haha it?s ahabit that I order fries or tater tots at bars. Pairs well with drinking! Read more
An awesome place to hang for food, bites drinks! I had the bone marrow and olives both were very very delicious and portion was... perfect!! My friend ordered a cocktail with pollen sprinkled on top! Read more
Great cocktail bar with a chill vibe. Cocktails are made from scratch and are complex and creative. They have a good happy... hour and $1 off food. We did not order any food but everything that came out of the kitchen looked delicious! We had a swizzlethat had rum and gin with a but of a tiki vibe but not sweet. I recommend highly! Read more
Food was so good! Came here for restaurant week but also ordered from the regular menu, this was our first time here but we were... pleasantly surprised. The ambience is more like a bar because it's loud but the food is more like something you'd expect from aupscale restaurant. Everything was delicious and plated beautifully. It was a Saturday night so it was pretty busy, we hadreservations and still had wait a bit and even after we sat down we waited a while for our drinks. Definitely will come back totry the rest of the menu. Read more
Excellent cocktails in a nice neighborhood bar. Their cocktail classes are also amazing and I highly recommend them.
