    Great little Lounge bar, live bands, great DJ music afterwards. Drinks are great but priced according to SF pricing. When the live show is on stage you see more of an older crowd in their 40's and above, once the DJ takes over it gets busy with barely 21 years old.

    This has become my favorite place to come to after getting dinner in Chinatown. Two bars on different levels, plus a live band that's awesome. Always a good place to end the night with.

    Located on a alley in Chinatown. You feel the old school spirit’s of the gangsters and the opium dens of SF back in the day. The whiskey shot was a triple and the dj ( Lido) was on hit. Fast friends were made, I’ll be there next Wednesday for sure.

    Awesome bar!! I’ve been here a few times now, twice on a weekend night and one time for a private party. Amazing drinks, live music, and a great atmosphere and venue. Highly recommend for a night out in Chinatown!

    Nice place to grab a drink with friends or coworkers. Dj and music selections is great. They have a vip room down the stairs as well which you can access with some one you know inside.

    A pretty good spot for a big group of friends! They have a live band playing in the early evening, and a DJ later in the night. The drinks are pretty strong, and their cocktails are fun and tasty. Weird comment but their bathrooms here are actually quite clean and well-managed for a bar.

    This review is only for the use of the space for events. Was fortunate to be able to head to Lion's Den for an event a couple of weekends ago. Right when you enter there is a huge dragon facing you which serves as the main entrance. There is some sitting space to the immediate right but most of the space is further down a hallway. The space is small and a bit cozy but there's a variety of different seating options (bar seating, booth, high tops, open booth facing each other, small tables). There is a stage where I think during certain hours there is a live band. If you continue down another set of stairs (next to the bar), you'll reach a pretty standard karaoke room that has a huge TV screen for group karaoke and just a general hangout with slouchy couches and chairs. Overall, I think the space is well utilized and decorated. Business owner information Steven L. Business Manager 10/22/2022 Thank you for the great review. I hope we can serve you again.

Jenny T.Elite 2022 Hayward, CA 105510153342 11/18/2021 1 photo We turned into the alley way and walked past this bar, then we made a fast U-turn and went in. That's how cool we are... we said - drinks? Yes please! Then out comes the covid card and ID and we swooped right in. It's a lounge-y bar with live band that night. Small, Asian decorative, dark, mysterious and oh so cool. We were out celebrating birthdays and came here to chill with a drank on-hand before our dinner reservations. We each ordered their specialty cocktails and went downstairs to sit on their cushy stools -- it was 7ish PM and empty, the band haven't even started playing yet. So, we hung out for a few minutes, chatted loudly, and then headed out. Fun place for drinks, snacks, entertainment and probably dancing. Happy we made that u-turn for our drinks. Lee K. San Francisco, CA 033 11/7/2022 It was a slow night but the atmosphere and location was all good. Reasonable prices - but note any hot food and snacks does not become available as they don't want to compete with lock restaurants for business and only serve when those guys are closed. Go! Grace W.

    Great new club in Chinatown. After a 40 year moratorium of the city not allowing nightlife in Chinatown, this is the first nightclub to open up in the district. Great mashup music and drinks and lively atmosphere. Their VIP room is fun for group karaoke and hangs with friends. Highly recommend checking out this new digs.

    Fun club - dancing with live bands or DJ and nice bar in the heart of Chinatown. Love the red decor and historic pictures.

  • 5/5 Andrew P. 1 year ago on Google
    Lively modern bar in the heart of Chinatown with a dance floor, live music, and fantastic drinks. Friendly, experienced staff and a party vibe

  • 5/5 Mary F. 5 months ago on Google
    Highly recommend! Local vibe, great atmosphere, music, and fun. The staff was friendly and quick with service.

  • 5/5 Christina N. 9 months ago on Google
    Very cool spot to get drinks with rooms with live music! Drinks were $12-15, which is good for SF standards. If you’d rather seat and chat, the upper area had good spots for that too. Will come back if I’m ever in the Chinatown/North Beach area at night
